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.

Great food, lots of history and architecture. Friendly and felt safe at all times. The centre has loads of restaurants and is easily walkable, especially at the weekend when it is fully pedestrianised.

I've waited to visit Bologna for years and when I finally got there it did not disappoint. This must be the coolest city in the world. Culture, amazing food, lots of live music, friendly people. I felt safe travelling alone here.LorraineUnited Kingdom - 10Scored 10
Bologna is perfect to visit on foot (visitor cars cannot...
Bologna is perfect to visit on foot (visitor cars cannot come inside the ZTL without a fine), with a compact old centre and lots of interesting shops, restaurants, cafes and historic buildings. A lively vibrant city, but it does also seem to have a fair number of homeless and beggars, particularly by the railway station and nearby park, which are not recommended as places for tourists to venture after dark. We passed through the station in the daytime and it seemed fairly safe, although completely chaotic, with hopeless signage to the different exits. The night we arrived, we were very late due to a delayed flight, and there were no restaurants open. We were lucky to happen upon a late night pizza kiosk and gratefully bought takeaway beer and pizza. It seems as though restaurants generally stop serving around 9.30 - 10pm, so if you're arriving late, your options may be limited! One thing that may be a little off the typical tourist trail is to go looking for Bologna's hidden canals - these can be spotted in various places around the Via Piella, where there are also places to eat overlooking the waterways.

Bologna is a fantastic city. The food was amazing.
Bologna is a fantastic city. The food was amazing. The was plenty to see and do and the people were friendly. We walked several miles of the streets to seekout what was published and happen upon things we did no know of that were quite interesting. Bologna ideally located. We plan to return for an extended stay to act as a base point to visit other cities via rail. La Taverna Di Roberto is a fantastic place to eat. We returned there for our last night. Bologna City Walking tour was a great way to learn the city and history and determine what you wanted to go back to spend more time. Taxis are relatively inexpensiver compared to other cities in Italy and a great what to get to the airport or train. Avoid booking a Stay at a place called Home Sweet Luxury. It is not at all what it is advertised and horrible living conditions.

A lovely and unique city with miles of covered walkways...
A lovely and unique city with miles of covered walkways which were both practical (keeping you dry and cool) and architecturally interesting. The city is very walkable with lots of interesting buildings, good restaurants and cafes. It seemed much less touristy than Rome or Florence. You get a sense of being amongst locals going about their day to day business. Giardini Margherita is beautiful and worth a visit. The walk up to The Santuario di Madonna di San Luca is also worthwhile and a very good workout with 471 steps and 3.8km of covered walkway!AnneUnited Kingdom - 8.0Scored 8.0
Beautiful historic city with most attractions easily...
Beautiful historic city with most attractions easily accessible by foot. The Archaeological Museum and Pinacoteca Nazionale were highlights. San Luca Sanctuary walk was spectacular but quite a lot of uphill; best done in the morning, to arrive in time for the skydome access which opens at 10am.TimothyNew Zealand

- From $139.55 per night8.3Scored 8.3Very GoodRated very good· 155 reviewsLocation wise it’s ok about 15 mins to city centre, 25 mins to Bologna Centrale. The studio room is quite small but everything you need is there. I cooked eggs for breakfast and I love the coffee machine! There were also some snacks on the fridge and on the cupboard. It’s actually my first holiday using an apartment as I prefer to stay in a hotel, but when I was looking for a place to stay at that time, there were only 5 hotels available and majority are bed and breakfast/studio type so I decided to give it a try
BernardUnited Kingdom - From $168.99 per night8.5Scored 8.5Very GoodRated very good· 8,632 reviewsHotel is in an excellent location, 2 minute walk from the main train station. Travelling to other cities and to the airport was made very easy as the train station was so close. I found the area safe and quiet and walked back to the hotel every night when it was dark and had no issues. Staff were exceptional to deal with and not rude like I have found in some hotels in Italy. Hotel is very clean...calm, relaxed atmosphere in the lobby. Hot water for showering never ran out. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay.

- From $177.12 per night9.2Scored 9.2WonderfulRated wonderful· 740 reviewsWe arrived during floodings in Emilio-Romagna region but the host met us outside with an umbrella. The house was magnificant, renovated art deco building from the 1930s. The room was TOP-Notch. Host helped us plan our Italy stay and warned us about flooded roads which was very helpfull. The bus stopped right outside and took you for 1 euro to central Bologna. Breakfast was nice and familier. Highly recommend. We will stay here next time we visit Bologna for sure.

We have been using Bologna as a gateway to other parts of Italy and this hotel is ideal for late of early flights to and from Bologna Airport. I managed to walk around a little bit and I saw that there was a commercial centre not far from the hotel. We also had a dinner at the restaurant and the food was amazing.
