    The rest of the hotel including lobby, breakfast area, rooms and bathrooms all are lacking love.. kind of cold and bare. Very bare essentials in the rooms, no coffee and tea set up. The breakfast seems a bit sad, lacks much in the way of fresh cut up fruit and vegetables, and this is the second time I've stayed there and they were very eager to inform me that they would not service the balcony/terrace for breakfast even though it's their best asset. Regardless they did actually bring coffees out to us on the terrace during breakfast but the coffees were also not very good.

    The terrace and location are both amazing.

    There were bars using the courtyard in front of the hotel which was not shown in the photos on your website. There was noise from drinkers well into the small hours. The room did not have a bath. The facilities of the hotel did not justify the price.

    The location was conveniently close to the city centre. The room was large and the bed comfortable.

    Ideal hotel for exploring and immersing in the historic sector of Bologna

    I would have liked the air conditioning to be available, as I had to have window shut due to normal noise from the square. Otherwise the hotel provided what I expected

    Lovely position in old city with view of the two leaning towers. Easy access to historic sites, restaurants, wine bars, pubs etc The hotel was staffed 24/7. I did not try the breakfast as preferred to eat out

    Great but skip the breakfast.

    • Standard Double Room

    Breakfast is not included in the price. For €15/person you can eat at their breakfast buffet. It's a pretty simple affair. They do serve scrambled eggs and bacon but any food intended to be hot were cold. To some it up-it's very overpriced and the cafe next door is a better bet.

    It's a well run, comfortable hotel very well located. The rooms are small but well laid out with plenty of closet space and comfortable beds.

    Below my room the builders were in and had a conveyor belt taking out the rubble which then went down a shute to ground level and was very noisy. This noise did stop but not until about 5.30pm.

    Location in Bologna was wonderful, beautiful building. The room was comfortable, plenty of hot water. Staff were very helpful, knowledgeable and happy.
