Breakfast from 7 to 9:30 For breakfast we get: boiled eggs, Italian salami, ham, gouda cheese, roasted bread, Philadelphia cream, butter, 3 types of jam, honey, milk, 3 different fruit juice, coffee on request, various pastry, fruits The recommendation of the receptionist regarding where to eat was excellent, Very helpful people. The hotel it is 10 min walk from railway station on main boulevard. Very good for airport transfer also for one day visit to Florence and Venice. We had received daily fresh towels, had shampoo and soap from the hotel. A supermarket it is at 5 min walk, same a good gelateria. Search google maps to eat at: OSTERIA LA FORTUNATA, CASA ALTABELLA, PIZZERIA SCALINATELLA, RESTAURANT DA NELLO, Cremeria Gelateria San Stefano, all near center, at ~ 8...10 min walk from hotel.

We where 3 people, a family. The room for 3 was small. That is almost always in Italy in hotels. Bath was also small. Only one person fit inside.

May 2024 stayed three nights, room 309. Third floor but easy to access with a lift large enough for two people , each with a carry-on bag and a backpack. Hotel staff were very helpful upon checkin. Our room was a bit unusual; two bathrooms, one with a toilet, bidet and sink (but had pipes in the wall for previous shower) and a second with a sink, toilet and tub with a shower wand attached to a wall rod but no shower curtain or splash panel. Lots of closet space and comfortable bed. We had breakfast included which offered a variety of meat/cheese, pastries, yogurt, toast, fruit, juices and coffee. Location is great for train terminal access and many of the attractions of Bologna. Some great restaurants and street entertainment made this an interesting and underrated stop in our Italian vacation. Would recommend this location to other travellers.

proximity to interesting places and restuarants

Regulating the temperature of the room was impossible without opening the windows. The overhead blower (set to heat for another month) didn't seem to do anything, and leaving it off we were subject to the house radiators which we couldn't set, so we had to open windows. And locals walking around wearing giant winter coats when it was 15 Celsius (59 Fahrenheit) AND HIGHER... Whats' with that?

I liked the room. It was clean. It was on the second floor. Window opened onto the street. It was convenient. Close to the train station. I loved that they allowed us to store our luggage there for the day. The staff was friendly and professional.

The room was a bit crowded. The bathroom a bit small - reminded me of an RV bath. I mean, there's nothing much I didn't like.

Hotel is located within walking distance of all the important sites in Bologna as well as the Central Train Station. Breakfast is good and varied. Staff are welcoming, helpful, polite and always happy to answer any questions you have. Would definitly stay there again if we visit Bologna.

Shower instead of a bath. Getting in and out of the bath is somewhat challenging for senior guests.

Close to beach. Very nice personal. Clean rooms. Good breakfast. I couldnt walk well (broken leg) and hotel borrowed me a wheelchair. So I could enjoy more things. The best benefit from hotel in my life. We enjoyed pizza place Civico 99 for dinners. Beach was huge and nice. When my leg will be fine I want to go back.

The location is great! The Hotel is in the city centre and very close to the train station. The room was very clean and provides everything necessary. The personnel was really kind and helpful. They also gave me a welcome gift bag for my dog.

I'm tall and I couldn't fit in the bathroom and the bed was a bit short for me.
