Al Santo

A plain hotel in Padua with a restaurant and pizzeria that draws most of its reviews.

Why people love it

• Pizza. Guests name an eggplant pizza and a top-10 pizza. Delivery is described as fast.
• Traditional Paduan dishes. One reviewer says it is one of the few restaurants in the city serving traditional Paduan food.
• Prices and portions. Several reviewers call the prices reasonable for Padua.
• Staff. Reviewers describe friendly, quick and unobtrusive service.

The worst thing guests say

Nearly all reviews are from restaurant visitors, not hotel guests. Among them, 1-star complaints from 2022 to 2026 describe cold or poor food, slow service, a rude head waitress and one case of bones in cod. Two overnight guests wrote about the stay: one in October 2022 said the mattress was hard and the price high, and one in July 2023 stayed 15 days and called the rooms spotless.

Insider tips

• Book for dinner on busy holidays, as one guest was told no table was available.
• Ask about gluten-free options, which are limited.
