Royal Hotel Carlton
10/10 Excellent
"The room and hotel facilities were excellent. There is a nice grass area where our two small dogs enjoyed playing. And we received excellent service at the reception desk. Carolina was particularly helpful in giving us directions to a pasticceria. I will definitely come back. "
Hotel Bologna Airport
10/10 Excellent
"Friendly and responsive English speaking staff. We did have to pay extra for the shuttle but it was convenient and well worth it. The restaurant on site was also a treat at the end of a long day!"
Starhotels Excelsior

"Clean room. Staff helpful. Good location "
Hotel Internazionale
10/10 Excellent
"The room we had was spectacular. The location is great. The front desk staff was very friendly and helpful.
Unfortunately, the tub drain stopper in our room got stuck so the water wasn’t draining properly. We had to ask for staff’s help a few times. We were offered a change rooms but the other room was smaller so we decided to stay. It was a minor issue. Other than that, our stay was wonderful. "

UNA Hotels Bologna Centro
8/10 Good
"Politeness of staff and a quick check e"
Elizabeth Lifestyle Hotel
8/10 Good
"Ok, it’s about 20 mins walk from train statio.
There is a bus stop yards from the hotel.
The room I got was clean (and cleaned everyday) with ample room, a desk if you need to work, a safe, good hanging space, area to unload from suitcase, good size bathroom (shower not bath) and quiet neighbourhood.
The staff was very friendly and helpful. There is a bar which I don’t get time to visit. Breakfast was fine. Ok limited cereals and scrambled eggs for vegetarians but there is a reasonable enough options and TBH, I was filled and happy with what I got. No complaints.
The one minor drawback and it has been mentioned, walls are little paper thin. I could hear conversations in the next room but then again they were talking a bit too loud and being night probably had some drinks beforehand.
I had my earphones, so I was fine and TBH, bed was comfy and I slept fine.
There is a fresh set of slippers for you and your partner and coffee/tea making facility. A paid mini bar is also present but I didn’t partake.
There are decent restaurants nearby and a convenience store (albeit slightly overpriced imho) but it’s errr convenient so I’m fine with that.
All in all, I got a good stay for a very good price and I was fine with it.
If you are there to explore the city, this is a well priced place to stay. Busses run into the early morning.
For the price I paid, I was more than happy with the hotel to accept it being slightly out of town.
Good value. Good place "
Hotel Palace Bologna Centro
6/10 Okay
"Great central location but very outdated, needs a lot of TLC to get it up to modern hotel standards. It was a cheap price and convenient so can’t be too fussy"
Phi Hotel Canalgrande
8/10 Good
"Nice staff. Old world charm but a little dated. Not the quietest hotel I’ve ever been in."
