Right at the edge of the old town (5-10 min walk to Piazza della Vittoria), in a nice tree-covered and surprisingly quiet cobblestone street. Free water, yogurt and snacks available. The place could not be cleaner, spotless. From a strictly practical point of view, it had everything I needed, and was comfortable (but see below)

It is a really charming apartment at the center of Pavia. It was very clean and spacious. Last but not least, the communication with the owner was great. The details we were given were crystal clear. Also if you travel by train is next to the train station, making it a very nice choice.

Pavia FAQs: Tips for every trip

AI generated

All trips

What's the best area to stay?

The historic centre is the most practical area to stay in Pavia, keeping you near Piazza della Vittoria and the Ticino River. If you plan to use regional transit to explore Lombardy, look for accommodation close to the main train station.

How many days should I stay?

A two-day stay provides enough time to experience Pavia. Spend your first day in the historic centre, touring Visconti Castle and the University of Pavia. Reserve your second day to visit the Certosa di Pavia monastery and walk the riverfront before returning to your hotel.

What's Pavia best known for?

This Italian city is defined by one of Europe’s oldest universities and the Certosa di Pavia, a Renaissance monastery. Visitors walk across the Ponte Coperto spanning the Ticino River to explore a historic centre filled with medieval brick towers and Romanesque churches.

First visit

What are the best things to do in Pavia?

Explore the Ponte Coperto spanning the Ticino river before walking to the University of Pavia, one of the oldest in Europe, to tour its courtyards. View Romanesque art at Castello Visconteo, then take a short local bus to the Certosa di Pavia monastery complex.

Where should I stay on my first trip?

The historic centre is the most practical area when booking hotels in Pavia for the first time. Staying near Piazza della Vittoria or along Strada Nuova provides immediate walking access to the University of Pavia, the medieval towers, and Visconti Castle. The neighbourhood connects easily to regional train services.

What’s the easiest way to explore in Pavia?

Walking is the most practical way to explore the historic centre from hotels in Pavia. The flat streets easily connect main landmarks like the cathedral and covered bridge. For travel beyond the central pedestrian zones, local buses and bicycle rentals are widely available.

Family stays

What’s the best thing to do in Pavia with children?

Walk through the pedestrian-friendly historical centre to explore Visconti Castle and its spacious public gardens. Cross the Ticino River via the distinctive Ponte Coperto, or rent bicycles to navigate the flat, paved trails of Vernavola Park for an active afternoon outdoors.

Romantic trips

What’s the best way to explore in Pavia?

Exploring the compact historic centre on foot is the most practical choice for couples visiting Pavia. You can also hire bicycles to navigate the pathways along the Ticino river. For reaching restaurants or attractions outside the central pedestrian zones, local public buses provide regular routes.

What’s the most romantic thing to do in Pavia?

Walk together across the Ponte Coperto over the River Ticino before exploring the city's central medieval towers. You can tour the Certosa di Pavia, a Renaissance monastery just outside the centre, and finish the afternoon tasting regional Oltrepò Pavese wine at a local enoteca.

Work trips

What can I do in Pavia between meetings?

Maximise time between meetings by exploring the historic centre. The University of Pavia offers short architectural tours, while Piazza della Vittoria provides central cafes with reliable Wi-Fi for remote work or client lunches. Conclude the day walking across the Ponte Coperto over the river.

Where's the most convenient place to stay for work?

Hotels near Pavia Station offer fast rail connections to Milan and regional business districts. If your trip involves academic or medical sectors, choose accommodation near the University of Pavia or Policlinico San Matteo.

I was there to photograph several churches but found the city charming and could have enjoyed another day there. The Hotel Moderno right across from the train station was a great choice given its location close to the historic center, reserved on street parking, and proximity to the train station.

Pavia was a great non-tourist town. University vibe, well kept buildings and streets. Nice historic center and river area. Good restaurants. For a break from all the tourist, big city hustle - Pavia was perfect.

If you like interesting old churches and a lively town centre Pavia is a great place to visit for a couple of days. About 5 miles out of town is an amazing monastery complex. You can get there by bus or train but these methods required too much walking in the intense heat so we took taxis. Well worth a visit. Everyone friendly and helpful.

Pavia has wonderful medieval churches and a big museum at the Castello. The tomb of St. Augustine is amazing, and is a favorite stopping point of Pope Leo XIV. Boethius is also buried in Pavia. The city still keeps traditional Mediterranean hours (2-2 1/2-hour break midday), so it takes a day or two longer to see all the sites. We found good restaurants and would happily have stayed longer. It is said that April-May are the best months to visit, and it was already hot (80 degrees) at the end of May.

I've visited Pavia a few times.

I've visited Pavia a few times. In a recent visit, I went to the Museo Kosmos, the Natural History Museum. Founded in the 1700's it's one of the world's oldest museums dedicated to natural history, but with a modern vibe - apparently over 500 exhibits (I didn't count them!), multimedia games, videos, interactive activities for children. An excellent place of learning.

Pavia has a modern centre and the older part has some lovely buildings. Certosa di Pavia, an old monastery, is 9 minutes by train (don't forget to validate your ticket in the machine next to the platform entrance). Do check the opening times, though. Pavia would also be convenient for visiting other cities in the area

This is a perfect example of how hotels should operate. At Hotel Aurora you have what you need for a comfortable stay and the staff make you feel very welcome - even after check out. This is the essence of a hotel business, which many times I don't find (even in expensive luxury hotels). But Hotel Aurora is very efficiently operated, it is clean, nicely decorated, well located and reasonably priced. I would definitely stay there again and I highly recommend it during your stay in Pavia. Congratulations to the management and all the staff.

I really liked the place. quite homely and I shared the place with another person for the night. A fun way to meet random pleasant people in Italy for the first time. The place has a nice secluded feel in the courtyard. completely safe and easy to accommodate for the day. the room was warm and just right, being near the city center gave me an easy stroll around Pavia.
