Historic Center, 0.7 km from Basilica of San Petronio

"There is no front desk so one must use multiple keypads for the front entrance, the room, and the luggage storage area. The apartment was very nice, with a big bed, big balcony, and delightful hot tub. The air conditioning is not American air conditioning but it is within the usual standard for Europe. The wifi is very good. One word of warning however, and this is by no means specific to this lodging--I think Americans see that something has an elevator and think that it must be at least...

Top Basilica of San Petronio Hotel Reviews

Royal Hotel Carlton

8/10 Good

"Royal Hotel Carlton is a very nice, clean hotel with a pleasant atmosphere and wonderful staff overall. I would definitely stay here again. After a 17-hour flight, we were exhausted and looking forward to relaxing with a cappuccino. Upon check-in, the front desk staff was extremely friendly and told us we could go to the restaurant for one. Since our room was not ready yet, we had not been given a room number. As we walked to the restaurant, a gentleman wearing glasses and a suit stopped us and asked for our room number. We explained that we had just checked in and that the front desk had told us we could enjoy a cappuccino while waiting for our room. Unfortunately, he was quite rude and unhelpful. I’m not sure if he was the hotel manager or another member of management, but regardless of his position, I feel we could have been treated with more courtesy, especially after such a long journey. Just when we were walking away, a very kind lady came after us and invited us to meet her at the bar. She personally made us cappuccinos and brought us some pastries. **She completely turned around what had started as a disappointing experience.** Her kindness and hospitality were truly appreciated. Thank you to that wonderful lady for going above and beyond. She saved the experience for us, and I will definitely be back to **Royal Hotel Carlton**. God bless her!"

Phi Hotel Bologna

10/10 Excellent

"I can’t say enough good things about this hotel. The staff truly took pride in the work they did and it was really felt. The restaurant is phenomenal. One of the highlights was doing the Pasta making experience. We met Monica who showed us her pasta making skills and she was so warm and lovely and talented and Mara translated Beautifully. Mara also met us with a Prosecco when we arrived. After we were able to sample the pasta and the waiter was so knowledgeable about both food and wine (sadly can’t remember his name). The people at reception always greeted us with smiles and very knowledgeable l. I am actually sad to leave."
