"The location is about as central as you can get in Bologna, right in the heart of the historic centre. Most of the essential sights are just a short walk away, and there are plenty of excellent restaurants nearby too. It’s an ideal base for exploring the city on foot."

Hotel Bologna Airport

Hotel Bologna Airport

8/10 Good
"It is really clean and lovely hotel with helpful staff. However, the reason we stayed there was for a shuttle to the airport but when we checked in we were told that the shuttles were full. I appreciate this but in the morning we saw one shuttle coming but another was just parked. If it is a touristy time, it may be worth rethinking another driver during busier periods. Also, the food was inconsistent. The lasagna had in the bar hadn't been defrosted enough or microwaved long enough. The food in the restaurant was a mix. Prices were such that the food should be consistently good. Just a suggestion but you have the Ducati museum right next to you. It may be worth working a deal with them and shuttle transportation there as I think it is a big attraction. Overall, the hotel is nice and clean with friendly staff."
