This was the best Chain hotel I have ever stayed at, and i travel alot. The room was huge and had everything you needed. It was clean and comfortable. The only thing we needed was to ask to have the AC turned on, as its a green hotel and controlled by the front desk. The 6euro breakfast was well worth it. All you can eat and was a wide variety of food. The desk staff was more then welcoming and helpful. It was located pretty well, about an hour walk to downtown. I would absolutely recommend this place if you are in the area.

Great stay if you’re visiting nearby car museums I stayed at the Best Western in Bologna and was pleasantly surprised. The location is super convenient if you’re driving — easy access and parking made it stress-free with a rental car. The room itself was comfortable and the air conditioning blew ice cold, which was much appreciated in the summer heat. The hotel is a little dated in some areas, but I noticed renovations underway, so it looks like they’re working on updates. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. One big highlight: the breakfast. Honestly, for such a reasonable price, it was way better than I expected. Marriott properties could learn a thing or two here — this was fresh, well-stocked, and offered plenty of variety. Only downside was the elevator — the doors closed way too quickly and the ride itself was painfully slow, but it wasn’t a dealbreaker. If you’re in town to see the Lamborghini Museum, Ducati Factory, or Ferrari Museum, this is a great base. I’d definitely recommend it.

A good stay

There was free parking at the hotel, which was very convenient for us. We also received a complimentary upgrade to a larger room, which was a nice surprise. The Wi-Fi connection was quite good, and the rooms were modern and relatively clean. Breakfast was good, with a wide selection of hot food, including scrambled eggs and sausages. However, better ventilation in the bathroom would have improved our stay. We also noticed a stain on the duvet cover, which was unpleasant to find. In the early morning, we were woken up by housekeepers chatting and laughing loudly in the corridor—likely due to poor soundproofing.
