Overall great stay! Only issue was the occasional sewage smell in the room which I was told can happen in Bologna. I suggest they add room fresheners in the rooms.

A wonderful hotel for your stay in Bologna.
It was really a great stay in Bologna. The staff couldn't have been more helpful and kind. Their suggestions for places to eat were really great as they were not touristy and places where local people ate which is what we wanted. Also suggestions for places of interest to visit were terrific. They were so helpful when we were trying to sort out about our boarding pass for our flight, without them we would never have managed it because the site crashed. It was a pity that I didn't ask sooner for a feather pillow as I find the other kind give me headaches. The previous hotel where we stayed in Verona didn't have these pillows but these wonderful people found some feather pillows for myself and my husband which made our stay even better. I can't compliment this hotel and staff more than I already have. Also it was very convenient to get to Piazza Maggiore and other venues. I would certainly recommend it to anyone and everyone.

We loved it! We came in from a rainy trip and front desk was so nice! She offered us an upgrade (for a fee) and it was worth it. Beautiful room with a great patio and plenty of space. Close to everything. Would recommend for sure! Pet friendly too!!

We stayed at the Hotel Touring twice: 3 days at the beginning and 3 at the end of our trip. The staff is helpful, knowledgeable, and super friendly. Breakfast is substantial, the neighborhood is perfect for exploring central Bologna, and the rooms are quiet. There are older rooms that are getting a facelift, but are still very comfy. The new ones are more contemporary with newer elevator, stronger hairdryers, and larger safes. The terrace and garden rooms are great for a limoncello at the end of a long day of walking. The price is right and includes a buffet breakfast. Would definitely stay there again.
