World-class cuisine is what Bologna does best. Nowhere in Italy, a country with considerable culinary heritage, is the food considered to be better than in this medieval gem.
Bolognese sauce of course originated here, but to try the real thing look for "ragú" on the menu. Cold meats and cheeses are also exquisite. Make sure you save plenty of time for eating – the Bolognese like to savor their food, so a meal can last for hours.
Many of the best eateries and homemade ice cream shops are found behind the mile upon mile of porticoed streets, now UNESCO World Heritage sites. The complex of medieval churches and buildings in cobbled Piazza Santo Stefano is a tranquil spot to explore. Climb one of the Two Towers nearby (not the one leaning at a startling angle) for spectacular views of this red-roof city.
The focal point of Bologna is huge Piazza Maggiore, whose Santo Petronio church has an unimpressive, half-finished façade that doesn’t prepare you for its sheer scale inside. Fanning out from this square, the buildings of Europe’s oldest university, founded in 1088, are home to the city’s best museums.
Bologna accommodations at Booking.com range from small B&Bs to luxury hotels, all easily accessible from Bologna Airport just outside the city.
Bologna is steeped in history. I recommend doing a guided walking tour and the San Luca express to the Basilica. The shopping was also pretty good. Bologna is also a sports city with Imola about half-hour away from Bologna (Emilia Romagna Formula One). The soccer stadium is also fairly close to the historic city centre. Bologna is a gastronomic delight - fresh Parmigiano Reggiano, aged to perfection. Fresh pasta, handmade. And the gelato!

Bologna is a college town but also a business center and so a good mix of ages. Good restaurants and plenty of things for tourists to do and see. Easy city to get around and plenty of great places to eat.

Bologna has a wonderful combination of architecture both old and new. We enjoyed the pace as compared to Rome and Florence. The people were welcoming, helpful, and lovely. We had secured and loved our cooking experience. What we did not enjoy was trying to secure a taxi when needed. We found the service unacceptable.

Bologna is walkable and historically important.
Bologna is walkable and historically important. Start at the city's tourist information center in Piazza Maggiore for a great map.
Moreover, it is a foodie-haven--all kinds of places to eat--from food courts to all sorts of restaurants.

Only there for 2 nights. Had excursion booked so didn’t get to see much of Bologna but we ate out one evening and had a very nice meal. The people are very friendly and the food and wine are fantastic.

We took a local train to visit the Marconi Museum.
We took a local train to visit the Marconi Museum. Very small intimate museum right on the site where the first wireless message was sent. Nice to get out of town and see how regular everyday people live in Italy.
Small compact hotel that is an oasis with lovely small garden with diverse mature pines & conifers on the outskirts of Bologna, convenient to the airport in a slightly commercial area. Lovely mosaic pebbled ground floor reception & dining area, with lovely paintings too. Bedrooms with lovely high ceilings, minimalist nice touches ie the ringed ceiling lampshade, comfy beds with funky orange bed heads, lovely tiled bathrooms with marble effect, nice shower. Nice decor, particularly the red chairs in dining area. Nice breakfast
The hotel was 15 minutes walk from the station and located in the historic centre of Bologna within very easy reach of all the main sights. The rooms were simple but comfortable and the staff were particularly friendly and helpful. Everything was spotlessly clean. Free coffee and croissant provided at breakfast but if you wanted more the hotel is surrounded by good local eateries and supermarkets. We were up on the 5th floor with sensational views over Bologna’s red rooftops. It had air conditioning and a fan.
Though mostly convenient for those arriving late or departing early from Bologna Airport, FlyOn Hotel is an overall superb choice for stay in the wider Bologna region, conveniently connected with a free 5-minute shuttle bus service to and from the airport. Elegant and spacious rooms, offering advanced amenities, in conjunction with superb breakfast and polite treatment from the staff. In all, a most notable experience, worthy of selecting without a second thought when traveling to or from Bologna by air.
This was my second stay at this excellent hotel. Faultless. Very comfortable room and modern well-appointed en suite shower room. Reception staff are wonderful, helpful and professional. The hotel is in a great location in central Bologna, with Piazza del Nettuno and the historic centre, shops and restaurants within easy walking distance. I parked at the nearby Parcheggio Piazza VIII Agosto which was easy. Breakfast was excellent with different options available.
We booked a room for 4 people and we were upgraded to a very comfortable apartment just next to the central building of the hotel.
The apartment was sparkling clean, spacious and modern.
The breakfast was included in the price and it was really delicious. Great variety of sweet and savoury options.
The location is very convenient. It is a 10 minute walk from the train station and at the same time at the centre of Bologna.
We totally recommend it!!
The atmosphere, the fact that it’s so modern, the staff, the parking (which is rare in Italy), the spotless and nice-smelling beadsheets and towels, the location ( close to highway so you can easily move around, and close to bus-stop so you can explore the city), the breakfast, the menu of the restaurant.
We will definitely be back when we return to Bologna or when we go to other cities they have the same hotels.
Amazing stay at this hotel. Very clean and well maintained. Hotel grounds are beautifully landscaped. Easy parking. Only 15mins from the airport. Bus 90 (bus stop 5 mins by foot) takes you into central Bologna within 20mins. Perfect for a city break. Breakfast was good and staff were very polite. We all loved the pool. Much needed in the high temperatures!
Spacious with aircon which is great during Italian summer :), small fridge is also a nice touch.
Very close to the Bologna airport but hotel shuttle runs specific times only so check times carefully. Otherwise taxi is about Euro 15 for 5 min ride. Hotel orders taxi for you to get back to the airport and waiting time is less than 5 min.
The apartment was really good and spacious and the breakfast was very good too and in the same building. It was a 10 minute walk from Lazzaretto monorail stop and was just one stop away from both Bologna Centrale and Marconi Airport. Riccardo (the owner) was a star and made sure our stay was as comfortable as ever!
The staff was nice and friendly and the room itself was clean, warm and comfortable. Moreover, the location of the hotel is very good, it is close to the centre of Bologna, which is nice if you want to explore the city on foot. The price was also affordable. We liked staying there :)
Excellent hotel in Bologna, 10 minutes way from the central train station. This is the second time I stayed here. The facilities are great. The staff is very kind also. Breakfast is ABUNDANT! This hotel is located near the piazza Maggiore and is on a shopping street. Very convenient.
The location is great. 10-15 minutes by foot to Bologna central station and maybe 5 minutes to reach the inner city.
The staff is very friendly and helpful. The reception is manned until 12pm but there is a code so you can enter the hotel at anytime during the night.
the hotel was amazing! in the centre of Bologna ! it was warm and clean and nicely decorated! the receptionist were very helpful with my transfer to the airport ! I even did check in one hour earlier! I will definitely recommend this hotel for your stay in Bologna
This is a beautiful historic hotel, located in the heart of Piazza Maggiore, closest to Saint Petronius basilica, and all the good bistros of Bologna. The staff is very friendly, and the hotel served a varied breakfast including a perfect Cappuccino.
The hotel was spotlessly clean, simple but very nice, very quiet and had great air conditioning. Great breakfast and very friendly staff, and on a back street near the edge of the central part of Bologna, very good location for walking everywhere.
The employees were wonderfully helpful, always greeting us with a smile. Such a great location—just hop on a bus and in minutes you’re in the central historical district of Bologna. We loved that the hotel has a washer and dryer for guests’ use!
Convenient to the airport. Helpful advice from staff to get into Bologna centre; they ordered us a taxi (17 euros).
Best way to get to the hotel from the airport is to get a taxi AT the airport (12 euros), rather than their airport shuttle.
Beautiful hotel with helpful staff, a great breakfast, and a wonderful rooftop lounge. Comfortable and spacious rooms. Good central location to explore Bologna and easy access to the train station.
