Lock in a great price for Royal Hotel Carlton – rated 8.6 by recent guests!

to get started.

Great service. Very clean and great facilities. Fantastic Wifi too.

Augusto, Australia

Real value for money, it was exceptionally clean, the staff very helpful, a great choice for breakfast and all within a 10 minute walk to the centre.

Donna, United Kingdom

Outstanding interior architecture and design! I was mesmerized by the countless chandeliers, incredible paintings and vintage decorations. There is a certain athmosphere, old and luxurious, that I particularly enjoyed and I believe that also the city itself offers it. You can easily get lost in time through the crowded streets of Bologna, contemplating the unique architecture, listening to a guitar playing in the distance and being surrounded by a delicious smell of Italian food. Definitely a memorable experience!

Flavius, Romania

Very relaxing hotel. Staff courteous and professional. Nice to go back to the hotel after dinner for a relaxing drink and a chat

Nicholas, United Kingdom

excellent location, walking distance to center of town and train station

Hxue, United States of America

Lisa, United States of America

Lovely staff & room. Best hotel we stayed in in Italy

Mummabearp, Australia

The rooms were very luxurious. Staff was great.

Tobias, Switzerland

Staff were very helpful and friendly and also helped us booking restaurants. We had a fruit bowl and champagne delivered to our room whilst we was out compliments of the hotel which I was though was a lovely thing to do

Adriano, United Kingdom

Wonderful location in a central yet quiet part of the city. The room was spacious even though we had the smallest room in the hotel. Everything in the room was in perfect condition, including all of the tiling and trim. The staff was nice and helpful and friendly to our 3-year old. Breakfast was large and wonderful with cappuccino made to order. The bed was really comfortable. Truly we couldn't ask for anything more in a hotel. It was wonderful.

Michael, United States of America

Great location!

눉The initial booking was for 2 people, me and my adult son. I booked the room for twin beds. When we arrived, the reservation was there and the room had twin beds, however, I was told that the reservation was made for one person and so an additional $80 American dollars was going to be charged to my credit card for the additional person. I told them they were wrong and the reservation was for two people and I received an e-mail advising me of the twin bed confirmation for that room, and showed them. They insisted the reservation was made for one person and said that there reservation stated one person. I asked them to think about "why would I ask for twin beds if I were alone?" Very unprofessional approach. I will not stay there again nor will I ever recommend that hotel.

“Huge, elegant hotel. But pool wasn't available”
- • Leisure trip
- • Group of friends
- • Superior Double or Twin Room
- • Stayed 1 night
눉We chose this rather expensive hotel in Bologna for the pool and wellness area. The problems was the pool wasn't available in early June and that wasn't mentioned anywhere when booking the rooms. We were very disappointment because we gave up some visiting plans for a relaxing afternoon at the pool. Also - we payed for the underground parking which should have been included in the room rate. If you travel together with friends, when you check in mention them you want rooms located on the same floor and close to each other. The corridors are huge and - depending on the room no - you may need a few minutes to get to it from the elevators
눇The hotel is very elegant and big. It has a wellness area (which we haven't tried), a good breakfast in a spacious restaurant and another elegant restaurant where you can eat dinner (although the food was expensive and meh).
