This is a tremendous hotel and worth the quick cab ride from the station. The breakfast was varied and the staff was pleasant and helpful. The folks at the front desk were great and arranged our dinner reservations since we don't speak Italian. The bedroom was clean and comfortable.

The location was fantastic. On the edge of the historic centre and only a short walk from Piazza Maggiore. The bed was excellent and the room was spacious. The staff were friendly and helpful. The restaurant opposite the hotel was great and really reasonably priced. The breakfast was good and the staff each morning were very attentive. Although it could do with more cereal and fruit options. Our only gripes with the room were that it was constantly too warm for us (even when the radiators were turned down. Although this may not be an issue for others). The family in the room above were very noisy late into the night (this is obviously not the fault of the hotel. Simply a lack of consideration from the family above us and not the best sound proofing due to the age of the property). We would definitely stay again on our return to the city (later in the year the air conditioning would be turned on so the heat wouldn’t be an issue)

A great stay

It was a fantastic place to stay, we thoroughly enjoyed it and undoubtedly we will return if we visit Bologna again. The only reason I didn’t give it 5stars is because the shower didn’t have sufficient hot water one morning. Often, this would bother me more but because everything else was SO good, it paled into insignificance!! The staff were also particularly accommodating and hospitable. Many thanks!

Excellent location, room is big enough, bed is really comfortable, breakfast is the best hotel breakfast I've had in Italy, my only issue was with the air conditioner that wouldn't turn on at first, then someone from the lobby helped me get it running but after about 1-2 hours it went back to not working, left the window open (thankfully the temperature was good outside) but then the noise grows exponentially which makes it a bit difficult to fall asleep.
