We really enjoyed our stay at Hotel Pendini. Our room was beautiful and very comfortable. The breakfast buffet was amazing. Good choices that included scrambled eggs and bacon, delicious pastries and croissants and we each had a cappuccino. Coffee, tea, water, orange drink available all day with cookies. A very nice touch. We will definitely recommend the Pendini to others.

My only complaint is the people that work the breakfast room, especially one of the Filipino workers. They are not happy and welcoming. He gave us directions in a rude and condescending manner. The front desk can also be a little more joyful and pleasant as well. The hotel itself is ok, it’s definitely in a prime location. The PRO about this hotel is their breakfast. I have to admit, very very good, there are a variety of choices and everything was delicious. This is the only thing that made staying here worth it. Beware of the family room, there are two cod beds and not very comfortable. My kids joked and said they felt like they were in a orphan home

The location was excellent—close to the Duomo and surrounded by both luxury and local shops. We were on the third floor facing the square, which was the best spot! It’s just 0.6 miles from the train station, making it walkable. However, the walk can be a bit challenging if you’re carrying large luggage due to the cobblestone streets. Fortunately, there’s a taxi stand right around the corner. If you’re sensitive to noise, staying near major attractions might not be ideal. We did hear people singing around 11 p.m., but it didn’t bother us—it actually added to the lively atmosphere. The staff were friendly and welcoming, which made our stay even better. I would still definitely recommend this place!

Cozy and cute

We only stayed for one night but it was so cozy I wish we could have stayed longer! The room was fairly small but it was exactly what it was hoping for - cozy, stylish and well located. We stayed with our 5 year old who loved his little bed and one more turn on the carousel before bed! It was also quiet, which I wasn’t expecting being right on the piazza. I’d definitely consider staying again!

Wow! We loved our stay at Hotel Pendini. The building is beautiful and so centrally located. We couldn’t believe we were eating breakfast in the top of the Arco del Triunfo. Breakfast was delicious with five types of fresh croissants, bacon and eggs, gourmet yogurts and fruit, and more. We ate dinner in the piazza below and enjoyed the live music. Our room looked out over the piazza which was such fun. We could hear the music with our room windows open but were able to sleep well once windows were closed. We would definitely come back to this amazing hotel!
