A very convenient small hotel near Piazza Bra, good breakfast. Some slight difficulties with over-enthusiastic air conditioning, helpful receptionists recommending good restaurants and giving general good service.

Can't say enough good things about our experience here. Perfect room, delightful breakfast, and wonderful staff. To top it off, like idiots we neglected to follow the checkout procedures and found ourselves semi-stranded at the front desk very early in the morning. Fortunately, someone was able to check us out over a video feed, which literally saved an entire city on our planned itinerary. THANK YOU!!!!! We would stay here again without a second thought. Highly recommended.
Excellent place to stay for a short break to Verona. 15 minutes walk from the train station. 10 minutes walk to the Verona Arena. Hotel is very clean, the decoration was lovely and the staff were friendly. I enjoyed the breakfast, eggs, sausage and bacon as well as fruit with the usual continental pastries .
We’d an amazing time in Verona and enjoyed out stay here, thanks for looking after us.
Relais Empire on Corso Nuova in Verona was perfect for a 5 night stay for the operas in the Arena and for exploring the old town. Just 200m from the Piazza Bra and the Arena Amphitheatre the rooms were a good size, clean and airconditipned, breakfast was good, and all the staff from reception to breakfast room and housekeeping were efficient and friendly. Won't be looking any further for accommodation if we visit Verona again.
The hotel is a little more ‘tired’ than the pictures suggest, but is otherwise in a great location for the station and the old town. Reception was also helpful with keeping luggage after checking out.
What brings the rating down is the breakfast: the eggs were ghastly- like yellow glue, the pastries on the stale side, and much was difficult to physically get to.
If you could give a 5 * review based on staff alone Relais Empire would qualify.
All the ladies were welcoming, friendly and highly efficient, nothing was too much trouble, super service and a credit to the hotel.
We had a junior suite which was a nice size with top class air conditioning. Unfortunately there was no easy chair where you could sit and read but a table with two dining chairs.
The room was immaculately clean with fresh towels every day.
The bed was large however the mattress was firm which may not suit everyone.
Breakfast was basic continental with good coffee.
Location was good being only a short stroll to piazza bra and the arena.
A word of caution, pedestrians need to be extremely aware of the scooter riders who can go at high speeds both on cycle tracks but also on pavement's (sidewalks).
