10. Bolognaroomscom - Falegnami Boutique

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

Hotel Metropolitan

8/10 Good

"The location of the hotel is wonderful. Unfortunately, it was too warm to try out the rooftop lounge, but it looked great."

Hotel Roma

10/10 Excellent

"The room was lovely , clean and cozy . Breakfast was superb with great coffee, and an abundance of options to eat . The staff were helpful and wonderful. I’d stay again for sure"

The Social Hub Bologna

10/10 Excellent

"We’ve never stayed at a Social Hub before and enjoyed the entire vibe. The reception area was great and very informal. Loved our room and the pool area was spectacular. Would definitely return and can’t wait to try this hotel in another city! Live music and dancing in the pool area one night. Very ‘social’ place Close to train station and very reasonable price. We could easily walk to the city center and we are both in our mid 60’s. Read their story provided in a book in the room and you will be impressed. Thanks for a great visit to Bologna."

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."

Art Hotel Commercianti

10/10 Excellent

"This is a really lovely hotel in the center of Bologna. I absolutely loved it and really enjoyed my stay. It is right off the main square and close to everything. The staff are phenomenal and the breakfast was really good. Despite what you normally get in Europe. I cannot recommend this high enough."

Starhotels Excelsior

10/10 Excellent

"The room was in very good condition and the staff so helpful and friendly"

UNA Hotels Bologna Centro

8/10 Good

"Description online on the breakfast wasn't the most clear, it said it was "available", but when we went downstairs they said it was only if we paid extra. The front desk staff were helpful though 🙂"

Grand Hotel Majestic già Baglioni

10/10 Excellent

"Everything and everyone there was amazing. The ONLY thing I would suggest is that they pony up for some soft sheets and pillowcases. Shockingly stiff and uncomfortable. We resorted to wrapping our pillow with a t-shirt."

Hotel Porta San Mamolo

10/10 Excellent

"A lovely hotel just a 10 minute walk from the main square. Lovely staff, lovely room and delicious breakfast served in a beautiful garden cafe. I would definitely stay again!"
