Noise can be an issue, especially in rooms facing the street or those with insufficient soundproofing. Guests recommend requesting quieter rooms facing the courtyard for a more peaceful experience.

Beds

Some reviews pointed out that low pillows and a bedding arrangement with a gap or mismatched duvet sizes detracted from the overall experience. Additionally, the firmness of the mattresses received a mixed reception; while some appreciated the very firm mattresses, others found them too hard, even describing them as rock hard or very uncomfortable.
In general, while many guests appreciated the comfort and size of certain beds, there seems to be a need for consistency and improvement in bedding arrangements to enhance the overall sleep quality for all visitors.

Nightlife
However, the bustling nightlife comes with its downsides. Noise is a frequent issue with sounds from nearby bars, nightclubs and the busy street permeating the rooms until late at night. Guests have reported noise from both the nearby establishments and partygoers, often continuing until 1 or 2 am. Despite good window insulation, the overall noise level can still disturb those sensitive to sounds.
While this central location offers convenience for dining and entertainment, it can be a bit too lively for some with street noises and loud parties happening well into the early morning hours. Therefore, it is an ideal stay for those who prioritize proximity to nightlife and are less affected by noise disturbances.
3 Star
The breakfast service aligns with what one would expect at this level, featuring a variety of sweet and savory options like sliced cakes and croissants. However, some guests felt that the breakfast spread could have been more impressive given the cost of €90 per night. The amenities, including mini-fridges in the rooms, conform to standard three-star offerings, although a few reviews mentioned that they experienced noise disturbances until late at night.
While there are critiques regarding the value for money proposition and breakfast quality not fully meeting expectations, many still find the overall experience commendable, notably highlighting the hotel's location and cleanliness. In summary, Albergo Orologio delivers a solid three-star experience with good value, especially for travelers prioritizing location and basic comforts.
