호텔 인디고 베로나 - 그랜드 호텔 데 아트 바이 IHG

這個酒店位置還行，看是英迪格品牌建築外觀挺古典好看才定的。結果到了酒店前台一位中年女性問我們幾個人，我説我們三個大人三個小孩，定兩間。她立馬嚴肅説一堆理由：房間太小床鋪太小，不能住，我説我們能住得下，她又拿法律説事，説不行必須要再定一間，我們定的那兩間一晚是1200多啊！我説那我們退掉去住別的酒店，她説不能退，還説説目前酒店衹剩下一間而且是最便宜的，我一問折算人民幣1500多，我一查攜程1300多還不止一個房間。她也是什麼話都敢説！這家酒店實際上是維羅納靠近中心的路邊聯排老樓，裝修改造的，電梯很古老，有一間房間還是天井採光，裝修還是滿意藝術性。就是對這個前台很無語，為了多收一間的錢使出渾身解數，我們也是無奈

服務人員很專業，酒店設備有點陳舊，距離火車總站很近，酒店對面有一家蘭州拉麪館，口味很贊！

The Indigo was just so so. Pricey. Frugal. Only body shampoo and body lotion. They did gift 2 bottles of water. Staff was great!

I was skeptical reading previous reviews but decided to give it a try for one night during my business trip as I’m an IHG member. Having experienced staying at 5 different hotels in this city — most of them within walking distance on Corso Porta Nuova (main street leading from the train station to many main attractions) — I can say that Indigo was among one of my top 2 choices. The room I stayed in was tastefully decorated — the headboard of the bed immediately attracted attention, striking but elegant, with paintings seemingly telling romantic tales of the city’s history; open wardrobe was clever as it made the room seem spacious while leaving plenty of space for hanging clothes and jackets especially on a rainy day. The balcony was a super nice touch and was my favorite to come back to in the evening with a view of charming Verona at night watching people and cars passing by. Two chairs, a coffee table with blankets and a little bit of floral decorations. I spent a fair bit of time despite the cold and rain, soaking in the beautiful images which were among the most special memories I’d carry with me from this trip. Check-in was super efficient. Anna at the reception was an absolute joy to meet and interact with. She’s super kind, thoughtful and professional in helping me with storing my suitcase as I was in a rush to catch my train to a nearby city on a rainy day; she gave clear, accurate info helping me to go to the train station within 10mins; and on the next day, kindly offered recommendations for cafes. Her passion and enthusiasm and friendliness is above and beyond many of her peers. Her genuine smile stands out from others who might be just trying to get their job done. You can tell Anna is truly exceptional and a wonderful ambassador for Hotel Indigo. Keep up the good work! Breakfast service was super efficient, friendly, attentive. The professional and thoughtful gentleman offered multiple times coffee, tea, orange juice, etc, making sure each guest had everything needed for a good start of the day, quickly clearing dishes while guests stepped away - perfectly seamless. Truly outstanding attention to details. The restaurant offered a good variety of food choices: raw veggies are rare in hotel breakfast buffet but here they did so that was a plus in my book. Fresh fruits, muesli, (no sugar-added) yogurt and scrambled eggs were my go-to. Although I didn’t eat pastries or bread or drink Prosecco for breakfast, if that’s something you like then you’d be pleased to know they offered plenty to satisfy different tastes. The only thing that prevented Indigo from making my No. 1 choice in Verona was the shower. I requested specifically for a shower because from the photos shared by other travelers and reviews many commented that the bath look dated and needed update. I personally do not take baths in hotels so having a new, good water pressure shower with fast efficient drain would be way more important. They did honor my request with a standup shower corner stall. However, the square-shaped shower stall area was so small that my elbows (I’m petite size female) kept knocking on the glass doors. I believe they’re scheduled for major renovation in Jan-Feb 2024 so it’d be interesting to see if they remodel the bathrooms and showers.
