“This was a very nice hotel in downtown Bologna a short pleasant walk to Piazza Maggiore. Property was very clean and well maintained. Rooms were spacious, quiet, and comfortable Staff was very courteous and professional. I would stay again when returning to Bologna.”

El Cento

United States of America

“This is a very nice hotel. The staff were friendly and helpful. The breakfast buffet was the most extensive we have seen in two months of traveling and different hotels. We can also recommend the hotel restaurant for dinner. The hotel is also within an easy walk to the train station for dat trips to Venice and Ravenna.”

CL Moore

눉Hotels on this level should have slippers in all rooms. WiFi was a bit strange, and I got some rather suspicious alerts so I preferred not to use it. Easter Sunday breakfast was just like any other day. Would have been nice to have a colomba or some other traditional Easter cake.
