Very acceptable 4-star hotel. Great for exploring Padova, but even better for visiting Venice by train (30-40 minutes) to avoid paying crazy prices to stay in that city.

This has to be one of the most gorgeous chapels anywhere in the world. The first impression of the azure blue panels by Giotto telling the story of Christ's passion is just awesome. Yes, it's touristy, but the sheer beauty of the paintings transcends any suggestion of tacky. The grounds are lovely to walk around too. The only problem is that the 15 minutes you're allowed in the chapel is not long enough to take it all in.
