Stayed here for 4 nights. Stylish hotel with a great room and excellent breakfast, perfectly located both for exploring other cities such as Rimini, Parma, and Modena by train — as we did — and for experiencing Bologna itself, where all the interesting sights are within close walking distance. Also very friendly and service-minded staff, always welcoming us with big smiles throughout the day. Kenneth & Monica Norway

10/10 Exceptional

Room and bed was wonderful. Level of opulence might seem dated to some travelers but as senior citizens on vacation we thought it was beautiful. The buffet breakfast was the best we've ever experienced in any country. Dinner at the "Spoon" Restaurant on site the previous night was delicious too and our waiter had excellent suggestions. Close to train station (walkable if you're under 50, but we elected to take a cab). Lots of urban bustle a block away but hotel was on a quiet side street so we slept very well, Would highly recommend if you don't mind being in busy urban crowds when you hit the streets for a walk, shopping or a meal. Loved it!
