Hotel Internazionale, hotel in Bologna

The Internazionale is an elegant, historic building located in the historic center, just an 8-minute walk from Bologna Centrale Train Station.

The staff was amazing. Always with a smile and VERY helpful. The hotel in general is outstanding in terms of structure (room size, building), furniture and carpeting (everything was new and well maintained, the bed was one of the best I ever slept on), and cleanliness (it was spotless. including the hallways). It is on the northwestern edge of old town with good restaurants, stores, pharma, etc. minutes away. It is near the train station. But coming to and from the airport I used a tax (<20EUR). Room was lovely with great picture double pane windows).

FAQs about hotels in Bologna









A Gourmet Delight

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.

    The people of Bolognia were really friendly, loads to do and see with an outdoor cinema when we were there. I would however advise taking the train up to San Luca (small tourist train) as it was a bit of a climb up. Food was amazing, just wish we stayed longer.

    It's a great idea to use the public transport - buses, it's cheap – you dont pay more than 6 euros for 24 hours and you buy the ticket in bus just with your visa card! Next time I'll try renting a bike because there are lots of people cycling and it doesn't seem too dangerous.

    Large sized room with lovely big windows, air conditioning worked beautifully. The breakfast had a selection of croissants, pastries, tarts and everything else. The staff were friendly and spoke enough English to get by. The price is a little more than average for a B&B but you definitely get what you pay for and feel rather pampered. The walk into central Bologna was not far. I would also recommend the Pizza shop, diagonally opposite the coop and on the same road, which does fantastic food at the cheapest prices I've seen in Italy.

Property was beautiful, spotlessly clean and it had everything one can wish for in a 5* hotel. Seriously, I was so happy I have booked this property and once I return, I sure will come back here. Simply wow!!!! And big thanks goes to its owner!!

The location is good: a short taxi ride from the airport, an easy bus ride into the centre of Bologna, set in leafy surroundings. The room was very comfortable and spotlessly clean. Breakfast was a feast, served a short walk away, in the Savoia Regency Hotel.
