Hotel Terme Bristol Buja

“To be named a world heritage site”

I have already written so many reviews in Italian, I have little more to say, despite the fact that this hotel is renewed every year. So I thought it would be best to translate my first review into English. Here it is. I have written a lot about Abano this year because I have fallen deeply in love with this magical place, where anxiety is dissolved in stillness and well-being, where I take refuge in dreaming, lulled by its waters and times. I reached the 29th night, I met 8 hotels, almost all very good, some excellent, I became fond of the Verdi and the Trieste, but this time, by chance, I came across the Bristol Buja and it was an experience unlike any other, I can't explain, you know that intangible feeling of feeling happy and satisfied when everything is perfect? That had never happened to me. Some feelings have to be experienced, I will try to translate them into words. I could start with the room: exactly as requested, on the second floor near the elevator with appreciated upgrade from Basic to Classic. I could go on to the restaurant: as a lactose intolerant person, I always prefer vegan dishes and here they have a BWell menu that is fabulous, not like those sad vegan dishes put just as a sop. And the appetizer and fruit buffets? Immense. The menu? The best recipes from the Italian culinary tradition. The pastries? So far I've only ever seen one dessert in all the hotels; here there are three plus other fixed like homemade gelato or crème caramel. The breakfast? Excellent, the way I like it, all of their own making, the only hotel where they make croissants and don't buy them frozen. They even keep them warm so they don't go moldy. The juice you find in the other 5 stars? Great idea, but now in summer, it's not the season, no point, here they give a BWell extract, there you pay it. Let's turn to the dining service, almost always a sore point. The best! Gentlemen, where else do you see pure guèridon service performed with such elegance and skill by long-time professionals? Mr. Paolo, many congratulations. The pools? Beautiful, one dedicated only to whirlpools. The indoor one with a dramatic rooftop window. The sunbeds? Both indoor and outdoor with the mattress, with none other than the umbrella. The spa? New and all kinds. The lobby? Large, with satin sofas and Persian rugs everywhere. The breakfast room? New with an outdoor terrace. The Dining Room? Amazingly comfortable upholstered chairs with armrests and the most beautiful set of dishes I have ever seen in my life. Want to have a good time? Evening with pleasant musical entertainment. Don't feel like it? A bocce court, a tennis court and a mini golf course. Not even that, want to go out? No problem, in the room on the coffee table or next to the elevator a rich bulletin board of events, excursions, museums, habit now gone. They even managed to satisfy my need for environmental care: towels changed only on request and dispensers in the shower. The garden, the best part of all, landscaped, incredible biodiversity, flowers and plants of who knows how many species, you have lunch by the pool surrounded by chirping birds, I even saw a squirrel! I think you get the picture, there is no need to go any further. But all this has a definite origin: the owners, real gentlemen. They welcome you in the restaurant with a big smile, in the lobby they greet you, they come to the pool to check that everything is okay. Here you can see the difference between hoteliers and entrepreneurs. At the Bristol Buja the saying is respected: treat your employees well because that is how they will treat your customers. The harmony, serenity, and love for their work that can be felt in all the staff is priceless. All of unparalleled seriousness and professionalism, very rare in a time when the tourism industry is collapsing. What can I say, readers, call and book a stay at this excellence in extinction.

“More than wonderful hotel”

I really liked staying in the hotel, it is clean and beautiful, and the staff and reception are more than wonderful, especially the employee Asma, who is friendly, kind, and good in dealing. I thank her very much, and I advise everyone to live in it. Najwa Al-Fahd

We had two interconnecting suites and one junior suite to fit our family of 6 requirements. The reservation was very uncomplicated with spa appointments and amendments made very efficiently and effectively. The highlights of the hotel go to the wonderful hospitable staff; from the front of house to the cleaning staff. The hotel felt away from 5 stars with weak breakfast offerings, bathroom toiletries, and the poor selection of antipasti buffet (especially at lunch). Lunch and dinner food offerings were wholesome and tasty highlighted by professional and attentive waiting staff. Our suites and rooms were well maintained however Wi-Fi was poor to non-functional. The outdoor wellness area was well maintained with the pool attendant actively around. The 139-bedroom thermal hotel is well located and we enjoyed the electric car charging station. Recommended if you are a first timer of a 5-star hotel in Abano.
