Bologna Hotel Guide - Sanctuary of Santa Maria della Vita hotels in Bologna, Italy.

"Nice staff"

"Well located, generous room size, clean, upscale, great staff! All good! Had a great stay in a great city in a great hotel."

"Perfect boutique hotel, the staff ( every single one of them) were amazing, they were polite, eager to help and always smiling and laughing. The room was very well appointed, quiet and clean. The bar on the ground floor was very inviting and cozy. The bartenders were great and very friendly. Unfortunately the restaurant was booked solid (make sure to reserve in advance) and the rooftop terrace was closed (probably due to time of year). Hotel location was walking distance to most of the sights. We would definitely stay here again!"

"Everything was wonderful! The location, the staff, the room itself. I would absolutely stay here again."

"The hotel was in a great location, easy walking to the centre of the city, a lot of nearby eateries and shops. The staff were all friendly and all spoke English, and even though it was opposite the railway station and Via Emilia, it was very quiet both during the day and the evening. The Marconi Express made it a seven minute ride from the airport which was a great bonus.!"

"Hotel was beautiful. Staff were very helpful. Absolutely recommend this hotel. "

"I’ll definitely stay here again! A warm welcome by staff and my room was readily available upon check-in. I was pleasantly surprised of the beautiful, simple and spacious one bedroom apartment (living room, dining table, kitchen with mini fridge, electric stove, microwave, coffee maker, and kitchenware). Very clean and open. I love the many windows that brought in natural sunlight and fresh air. I did not mind the late night chatter & noise in the streets below. If you are sensitive to noise, ear plugs were provided. If you’re like me who has late night cravings, I went to the local markets and kept handmade pasta and wine in the mini fridge. Gelato did not make it back haha. There is a lift that fits at most three people without luggage/one person with large luggage. Spiral stairs next to the lift if you don’t want to wait. Safe and Great location! About 10-15 minutes to walk to Bologna Centrale train station, Piazza Maggiore, and/or University of Bologna. If you have luggage like me, about 10 euros each way to/from Bologna Centrale train station. Staff recommended Uber app for easy and faster service. There are multiple bus stops within 5 minutes walk. Take the line 20 bus (2.5 euros for a few hours better than a fine without a ticket. When you get on the bus, look for a red box to deposit your euros) and stop at “Croce” to walk the world’s longest Portico Di San Luca. So amazingly worth the walk to the top! Grazie Mille Almarossa! Arrivederci alla prossima volta!"

"Customer service was excellent from the moment we arrived to house cleaning. Thank you to the entire team!"

"Room was good, spacious and clean. "
