Top Santo Stefano Hotel Reviews

Hotel Centrale

10/10 Excellent

"We had a fantastic stay here and would highly recommend it! We stayed in a studio apartment that was incredibly large, spacious, and equipped with absolutely everything you could need. The bed was very comfortable, and the shower was impressively large and nice. The location is perfect—it is extremely central to everything and within easy walking distance to the main attractions, shops, and restaurants. If you're looking for a comfortable, convenient, and roomy place to stay, this is it!"

Il Convento dei Fiori di Seta

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed in a deluxe suite- 2 levels and THE largest 2 bathrooms we have ever seen in our European travels. We were able to check in early after a long hot walk from the train station which was greatly appreciated. Front desk staff was super helpful with many tips on places to visit, eat, and drink. Plus they were always there to help ( couldn’t unlock our door). Main part of our room was upstairs with a comfortable bed, huge bathroom and a long shelf like table overlooking the downstairs. Lots of amenities in the bathrooms. Small fridge stocked with a few beverages. Shag carpet going up the stairs. Breakfast buffet was very good with lots of options."

Almarossa

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful stay here in Bologna. It was a little hard to find but the directions bring you straight there, it’s just a door with the name on it no big sign or anything. The room was amazing and the shower was even better! We had 3 rooms and each was great! The staff was super helpful as well and made check in easy. We would definitely stay here again!"

Hotel Porta San Mamolo

8/10 Good

"The hotel is situated about 10 minutes from the centre of Bologna. It’s an easy walk and means you are in a much quieter area. We stayed in the Residence building which isn’t part of the main hotel building. The room was nice and big, plenty of space, the bathroom was small but adequate. If you are a bigger person or you struggle with movement, you would definitely struggle with the limited space. The shower was small and the shower tray filled up very quickly, although it didn’t leak out as we were quick. I would also add that the walls and ceiling are paper thin! You can hear everything. I really struggled to sleep so I would recommend ear plugs if you are a light sleeper. We were on the first floor and we could hear the front door opening and closing, people talking all the way up the stairs, their doors closing, people moving around in their rooms, the bathroom noise, you really can hear everything!! The breakfast was fine, nothing particularly special but perfectly adequate. The surroundings are beautiful. The courtyard is lovely and on a nice day, you can have your breakfast outside. I probably wouldn’t stay here again but it is in a good location and it’s extremely clean with very nice staff."
