Methis Hotel

  • February 18, 2007

Methis Hotel

This boutique hotel epitomizes my ideal hotel, although I think my parents may have found it a bit odd. It's an upscale hotel that caters to business travellers, and it's also a design hotel with beautiful aesthetics.

It was located on Riviera Paleoscapa. Padova is quite small, so although we were far from the busy center, it only took thirty minutes to walk there. There was a lovely river across from the hotel, and the street had some lovely restaurants and boutiques too. You do need a cab though if you came via train. The location was one of my favorite things about it, since downtown Padua has a lot of traffic and can feel quite hectic.

Each floor is themed after a different element: fire, water, earth, air. We stayed on Fuoco/Fire. As the brochure reads, "A whole of light effects to create a place rich in deep warmth: the ideal scenery to a great passion." Indeed, the room was painted in warm colors and was very stylish. It reminded me of a NYC hotel.

Their restaurant doesn't really serve dinner, just snacks and salads. It was a nice place to hang out but it would have been nice if they had a real restaurant.

The service is good, if a bit cool. The staff are a little hands-off, but very helpful if you ask for their assistance.
