Beautiful old world hotel
It’s a beautiful old world style hotel. It’s comfy and has great service, also very old fashioned in a good way. Just how you expect a luxury hotel to be. Only problem is its aging and the cleanliness isn’t quite up to par, stuff like some grungy spots in the bathroom, doors that have water damage, etc. I absolutely enjoyed my stay thoroughly though. If they invest a little in renovations and sprucing it up it will be incredible. Id stay there again.

Great short stay
Our room was enormous and very comfortable, with everything we needed. The staff on reception was helpful and friendly. Close to the historic center of town, and to the train station as well.

Great but check the small print
A great stay. Have hotels.com gold status and this is a VIP hotel, so got a room upgrade to a beautiful junior suite. Unfortunately we weren’t told what the €20 credit could and couldn’t be used for so left it untouched and unused at check out, even though we paid a balance of over €50 at the end of our stay. Be warned!

This hotel is a little old. You can see how the wear and tear has treated the rooms over the years. It is a chic hotel, with nice sofas and dining areas. It's fairly close to the Bologna city center, about a 12-15 min walk. The restaurant at the hotel was very good. The included breakfast buffet was amazing!!! The staff were very nice and helpful. This hotel, if renovated, could be a hidden gem.
