Bologna, Emilia-Romagna hotel rooms at the Independent

"Some of the friendliest front of house staff I have ever encountered- they were great - nice hotel, clean and quiet. Only negative would be it’s a good 25 minute walk into the town centre. Otherwise superb "

"Hotel staff are great, breakfast selection was amazing."

"Great position opposite the railway station. Staff charming, friendly and knowledgeable. Comfortable bed and good breakfast. I will return. "

"Very friendly employees, amazing breakfast menu,beautiful view and atmosphere at the rooftop bar"

"The studio apartment was spacious with a kitchen, king sized bed, lounge suite, a kettle - hallejuiah, bar fridge with local wines, cleaned and fresh towels delivered every day. Airconditioning was fantastic. We could pop out pick up our mortadello, parmagiana reggiano, baguettes etc. and be able to prep a meal in the apartment. Walking distance to Bologna station if you would like to go to the Ferrari museum."

"We had a triple prestige room for my wife, daughter (15) and myself. There was ample space and the beds were comfy. The included breakfast was very good, but it didget busy towards the end of service. The pool is amazing being Olympic size. You do have to pay for the sunbeds and umbrellas, but that does mean they are available and not just covered in towels from 7am. But if you are planning several days around the pool the costs will mount up. The hotel is a little bit out of the city centre and a taxi will cost about €25 each way. There is a bus but it takes over an hour. Best to have a car."

"Overall this was a very nice hotel and we had a pleasant stay. Every staff member that we spoke to was very nice and helpful with any question that we had. They all spoke very good English and were polite with my terrible Italian. :) Raquela at the front tlesk in the mornings had AMAZING restaurant recommendations. Marissa, at the front desk in the evenings, was not only nice and helpful but also remembered my wife and I by name after only one day. While the first room we received had an air conditioning unit that did not work and needed some repairs, the staff was quick to send someone to check it out and then quick to give us a different room. I will personally plan to stay here on my next visit to Bologna."

"Loved the hotel, room was super spacious, bed was very comfortable, the temperature of the room was great. Loved the TV casting. Hotel was easy to find, easy parking, walkable to the core. "
