A comfortable stay near Bologna Centrale

A comfy place to stay that is clean and just right for a solo traveller with hand luggage. Coming as 2 or more or with large suitcases might prove tricky to place them comfortably. The location is great near the station and some restaurants, coffee shops and bakeries. No noise whatsoever and there is also a small shop on the corner selling items like water and snacks. The counter in the bathroom was wel sized to put toileteries.

Cute hotel, in walking distance from the historic city centre. The hotel itself was very stylishly decorated. The spa and jacuzzi etc were for an extra fee and booking needed to be made to use these. This was not clear in the information. The area is not the nicest of the city, a bit run down and dirty. The room was also a bit old but the decoration was cute and vintage. No complain about cleanliness.

Quaint little boutique hotel. Tucked away. The smoking and non smoking rooms are in the same areas so the hallway tends to stink if you’re not used to smokers lol. Otherwise great little spit near the transit stations.

Unhelpful staff! They couldn’t help with dinner reservations, couldn’t make change,… The room had no aircondition and was hot. The window had to be open and the restaurant downstairs had noise until 11:30. The bathroom had such a small sink the you could barely fill your water bottle in it. There was barely a place to put your toothbrush. This hotel was expensive and offered no amenities. Breakfast was 15 Euro more per person per day Behind the door was ripped wallpaper. This hotel did not set a good tone for our visit to Bologna!
