Atlantic Terme Natural Spa & Hotel

The staff was very friendly and helpful. Everyone I talked to was speaking German, which was very convenient for a German. The prices for massages were reasonable. We had a Shiatsu massage with Fabrizio, which was very nice. They don't offer couples massages. The breakfast buffet offered a lot. I loved the brownies! Our shower head was broken, but repaired within an hour. They offer simple bycicles for rent without charge. The area around the thermal pool is nice and clean. They have a Restaurant, where they offer lunch and dinner - besides breakfast of course, which we didn't try, because it was too expensive for us. A few minutes down the road towards Colli Euganei are some good and cheap pizza places though.

As soon as we arrived we felt out of place. With mid-twenty and 30 we decreased the average of age drastically. The room smelled of grandpa (not meant in a insulting way, it just reminded me of the after shave of my grandpa) and the furniture looked accordingly. This is not a bad thing or something that should be changed of course, but made us feel a little out of place as I said already. Just putting it out there. Before we stayed here, we stayed at a Camping Village near Venice, where the rooms - especially the bathroom - was better equipped (shower was quite small, but it had a handle for support and a emergency line, which is nice I guess). Water pressure was quite low. Although this is a Spa Hotel you have to pay for bathing robes, they are not included. At least not in our room category we were told. For swimming in the thermal pool you are required to wear a bathing cap, which you have to pay for, too, as we learned at check-out. I could go on niggling about other small things, but then again it doesn't cost the world. It would have been nice to know about all the additional charges up front, though, since we expected bathing ropes to be included as usual for Spa Hotels. It is a lovely Hotel after all. I'm not sure, if we would come back here, but it sure is a very nice place!
