A gem of a hotel

We have stayed in a number of hotels in Bologna and this is by far our favourite. We enjoyed our stay and the service we received so much that we canceled reservations we had at another hotel for later in our trip and booked with the Touring Hotel for our return. The area is an older residential area, not so touristy, but the essential spots in Bologna were all within an easy walk. The view from the rooftop cafe made for a great start to our trip.

The Touring Hotel is conveniently located in the city’s historic district, and is easy to reach by city bus from Bologna Stazione Centrale. Since I am traveling alone, when I learned my room was in a separate building, I asked to be moved to another room in the main hotel. Staff member Marta went to great lengths to accommodate my request, which I anppreciated. Other staff were also exceptionally helpful. The hotel’s buffet breakfast was the best I’ve had so far in Italy. The hotel’s common areas were lovely and the views from their rooftop bar were beautiful. My room, however, was small and austere, but otherwise functional, and had a nice bathroom.

Very cute hotel within walking distance to all the major tourist sites in Bologna - and also a short walk to San Michele di Bosco park where you can hike up the hill, very easy, to have a picturesque view of the city and visit the beautiful church on top.
