We made a last minute reservation at this locanda in Verona and were over the moon when we arrived to find a warm and welcoming top class place to stay. We gladly checked in to their classic double room and found a beautifully decorated and large soundproofed room with a lounge, king bed, coffee maker, fruit, mini bar, etc. If... More

We stayed in a beautiful and spacious two bedroom/two bathroom appartment (two single beds in the first room (possibilty of a third single bed) and a king size bed in the second room upstairs). A very good option for a family with children (not babies though, as two bedrooms are separated by stairs). Appartments belong to the restaurant "Ippopotamo", so... More

We stayed at the Ippopotamo and arrived around 11pm to check in. We were welcomed we a big smile by Nadia the manager of the hotel. Excellent rooms and beautiful location. I didn't really want to leave a review as I believe this hotel should be twice the cost for the service and location. I will be certainly staying here... More

Second time visiting Verona and first stay in hotel Ippopotamo . The Arena, Pizza Bra and the good food are as good as before. But staying at this truly city center located hotel really added colors in visiting Verona. We stayed at the attic room with a window on the ceiling which my kids (age 8 and 9) felt they... More

I visited with my family for a few days. We got a fantastic room on two levels which the kids absolutely loved. The view of the arena was impressive. Everything worked well, including the internet and movie channels. Breakfast was very good and plentiful and there was fresh fruit and good coffee in the room! The staff was friendly and... More

Wonderful room with perfect location in lovely Verona; nice view to the Arena and Piazza Bra, very clean, nice beds, fresh fruit and flowers, free minibar, excellent breakfast (Thank you, Gabriella:-)) and the staff was so friendly and serviceminded!

My wife and I had two nights in September 2012. The most amazing room we have ever stayed in! The view over the piazza and to the arena is unparalleled. The balcony was a rare find - not many of those in Verona. Don't be put off by the hotel reception being located in the pizza / gelato restaurant or... More

These rooms are wonderful!! We chose them because we were going to the Arena for the opera and wanted a room close by. The Ippopotamo is about 150metres from the arena . The room was wonderful, with fresh flowers and fresh fruit, nothing was too much trouble. The minibar, which was inclusive, was filled again every day. The room was... More

This was one of the hidden gems we discovered on our 4 week trip to Italy. Overlooking Piazza Bra and the Ancient Amphitheatre, the location of the hotel is amazing. But wait till you get inside there is no expense spared and everything even mini bar is all inclusive. We arrived at 0700 on the Thello night train so we... More
