Arnaboldi Palace

Arnaboldi Palace is a wonderful hotel which I can strongly recommend to anybody who wants to visit Pavia. It's a unique place, right in the center of the old town: we could see the Duomo from our window. The staff is excellent (thank you, Signore Paolo and Sergio!), exceptionally helpful, the rooms are large and clean, the palatial breakfast room, which is the ballroom of the palazzo ballroom, is amazing.

Our stay at Arnaboldi Palace was unforgettable. The building is emaculate, particularly the main dining hall with its beautiful terraces facing out over the lively streets of Pavia. The service was phenomenal and personalized to fit our needs. The rooms were clean and comfortable. Martina and Sergio in guest services were helpful and highly attentive to our needs, and they along with the host Paolo and Suzannah (the resident "guard" dog) were all very welcoming. The continental breakfasts were a lovely touch, and we highly recommend enjoying the aperitivo on the outside terrace in the evening. We had to check out before breakfast on our last day to catch an early train, and Sergio personally arranged for breakfast to be provided in our room before our departure. We were fortunate to get to spend several days here, and it was a lovely spot to return to after day tripping around Northern Italy. Every evening when we came back to the Arnaboldi, it felt like coming to a home away from home.

A truly magnificent place, a stunning architectural gem that radiates historical charm. The level of service is exceptional, with personalized care and attention to every guest—a quality for which we are deeply appreciative. Our heartfelt thanks to Señor Paolo for making our experience even more memorable.
