Lovely hotel for city break

Pros: Location, comfort of the room. Staff were also very pleasant during check in/ out and at breakfast.
Cons: Maybe a kettle or coffee maker in room .
Location: Handy for seeing the sights of Bologna. Approximately a ten minute walk from Piazza Maggiore and 5 minute walk from the bus & train stations.
Lovely hotel in Bologna. Great location in the centre of town although situated just off the main drag avoiding the hustle and bustle of the city. Room was nicely furnished and spotlessly clean with a pleasant view over the front gardens. Room rate included a buffet breakfast which was a bonus. Buffet was really nice with a plentiful choice of fruits, cereals, breads & pastries and also included fresh meats and cheeses and a few hot items eg. eggs, sausage. Would recommend this hotel and certainly would return to it on my next visit to Bologna.

A really Great Hotel

Everything about this hotel is Brilliant. Very friendly helpful staff. Large, lovely room. Marble bathroom with special toiletries. Queen size bed - v comfortable! Safe, fridge, fluffy white robes and slippers. Everytinh was immaculate when we returned in the evening. Large buffet breakfast. Great variety of food - loved the fresh fruit salad, Pannetone & rich Cappuccinos. We timed our walk to the station - just 4 minutes. About 12 minutes walk to the centre of beautiful Bologna It all looked So Christmassy - sad we had to leave. A Wonderful hotel at an amazing price. Would definitely go again.

Ein tolles, praktisches Hotel, welches gute in-house Parkmöglichkeiten bietet und nur kurze Fussdistanz weg von der Altstadt liegt. Kann jederzeit empfohlen werden, auch wenn es drin nicht mehr ganz dem neusten Standard entspricht. Sauber ist es aber allemal und sehr freundlich ebenfalls - und das ist ja die Hauptsache.

Très bel hôtel de style ancien avec tout le confort moderne. Personnel accueillant et compétent aussi bien à la réception qu'au petit déjeuner ou pour porter les bagages. Excellent petit déjeuner sous forme de buffet sucré et salé, avec grand choix de croissants. Très bien situé à deux pas des principales curiosités, des magasins et des restaurants, même s'il n'est pas en plein centre, il dispose d'un parking payant.
