Travaco Siccomario accommodation from NZ$159

key never worked in door but quite good location

Clean room and staff is helpful and the hotel is elegant

Walking distance to the Assago Forum arena (and not much else!) at the terminus of the Green M2 Metro line. Wonderful breakfast in an airy daylit space with coffee machines, various wholegrain breads, smoked salmon, cheese & meats, fruit, yogurt. Sweet staff, nice housekeeping, I think my room was a King bed Suite room, separate spaces but no door between bed & sitting/desk area. The couch converted to a comfortable twin bed for my guest. Oversized walkin closet with a small safe, and bathrobes. The room was nice enough and the bathroom spacious. We had a pleasant view over the fields on a side. Occasional odd acoustics- usually quiet but once or twice, sudden loud voices walking past in the hallway. The place seemed enormous and mostly empty but filled up some during the week of the Olympics- lots of officials & judges stayed at this hotel, and you could glimpse athletes going in & out the side entrance of the arena, across a large field. NOTE: Plan ahead for food if you have evening events. No lunch available. Dinner which we never saw owing to the dining opening at 7pm or so when we'd already left for skating events at the arena. One or two sandwiches available from 3pm onward in the plush and oddly underused lounge, open maybe 3pm to 10 or so. There's a kettle and minibar fridge in-room. Common areas are large, the landscaping around the hotel gave a nice garden atmosphere. I found it convenient and comfortable, ate a huge breakfast so I didn't really need lunch.
