Bologna, Emilia-Romagna hotel rooms at the Independent

"Beds were decently comfortable, condensation and minor mold under the windows, soap and shampoo provided but no conditioner. Not bad for a quick stay, just gotta be honest!"

"The hotel was close to the airport and had a shuttle bus even early in the morning at 4:30 am. Also, I was amazed by their amenity at this budget hotel. "

"Food was really good amd has lots of choices but for some reason, warm food menu was cold and undercooked on my last 2 days of stay. There is laundry, free water (water dispenser), really small fridge inside room, and has no air conditioning (heater only). Hotel is close to Bologna Centrale (train ststion). Staff were good and addressed any concerns or answered politely to any questions. We initially had troubles with shower pressure and was resolved within the day of complaint."

"Hotel should say where car park is located, not easy to find. Also, while trying to enter the hotel, my wife was set upon by three women who tried to steal from her. A very traumatic experience which didn't seem to surprise the hotel staff. Location was great and staff were very efficient, however, our stay was disappointing. "

"Property was in a great central location and the room was very quiet and clean. Staff was not friendly though. Overall would still recommend this property due to the convenience. "

"My flight landed late at night and a hotel representative said the lobby was manned 24/7. I was grateful to arrive just after midnight and be called by my name and quickly checked-in and sent to my room. It's an older hotel but clean and sufficient. The staff is friendly and helpful. The location is GREAT to explore the Old Town area of Bologna (easy 15-ish minute walk) and about a 5 minute walk to the train station. "

"Well located hotel among the train station, the city center, and the airport. The staff was hugely helpful."

"Comfortable, very good breakfast and easy access via bus into city."

"We stayed at hotel del Borgo when visiting Ducati factory and museum. This hotel is literally a stones throw away, ideally placed! The staff are amazing Allessandro (manager) friendly and accommodating. As is the way with Italy, rooms are just as you need them. Bologna is a simple 20 minute bus ride on one direct (no.23) €2 /person (each direction) whilst we were here. Bus stops at terminus in Bologna, when returning get off at “Ducati” stop. Recommend the restaurant Trattoria Della Salute...

"Super friendly staff and all of them very helpful, helped with directions to the Ducati museum, which bus to take downtown, selling bus tickets in the lobby and the morning cappuccinos! Very quiet and beds were perfectly firm. Location was very good for our activities and there was a very good restaurant nearby. Since the Ducati factory was closed so we couldn't take that tour we are obviously coming back and will stay here again for sure. Oh yeah, breakfast was very good too!"
