FAQs about hotels in Bologna









A Gourmet Delight

World-class cuisine is what Bologna does best. Nowhere in Italy, a country with considerable culinary heritage, is the food considered to be better than in this medieval gem.

Bolognese sauce of course originated here, but to try the real thing look for "ragú" on the menu. Cold meats and cheeses are also exquisite. Make sure you save plenty of time for eating – the Bolognese like to savor their food, so a meal can last for hours.

Many of the best eateries and homemade ice cream shops are found behind the mile upon mile of porticoed streets, now UNESCO World Heritage sites. The complex of medieval churches and buildings in cobbled Piazza Santo Stefano is a tranquil spot to explore. Climb one of the Two Towers nearby (not the one leaning at a startling angle) for spectacular views of this red-roof city.

The focal point of Bologna is huge Piazza Maggiore, whose Santo Petronio church has an unimpressive, half-finished façade that doesn’t prepare you for its sheer scale inside. Fanning out from this square, the buildings of Europe’s oldest university, founded in 1088, are home to the city’s best museums.

Bologna accommodations at Booking.com range from small B&Bs to luxury hotels, all easily accessible from Bologna Airport just outside the city.

    I found Bologna a very beautiful city. Easy to walk around with many interesting buildings. I am 78 and found walking easy. I found the hop on and off bus excelkent value . I would recommend getting the 2day ticket. There are a range of eateries so one can grab a slice of pizza or have a full meal. The aperol spritz are served with small savoury delights. The food is good. The people friendly.

    Very interesting city. Very walkable.

    Very interesting city. Very walkable. The university area is fascinating as is the history of the town - underground canal system, oldest university, etc. It is slightly less busy that other major Italian cities. Great food and nice vibe with it still feeling like a university town (youthful). Had an especially good meal at Da Nello's near Piazza Maggiore. Lots of construction and restoration going on but it didn't really detract too much.

    One of the most beautiful cities of Europe, the weather was great and there was a great crowd on the streets. The food n people are nice. You can find history in every corner. We walked almost everywhere. Had an eating tour which was very nice.. Go to Via Pescherie Vecchie, for sure you'll find a spot to dine:) If you have few days you can take a tour to Ravenna to see Dante's tomb, the famous mosaics n have lunch at the Mercato Coperto. I didn't get enough, sure will go back:)

    Bologna is a very friendly city with a laid back vibe and very safe....the general prices to eat breakfast, lunch and dinner were extremely reasonable which was a nice surprise! Make sure to get the little train up to San Luca, but do it on a good clear day as the views are amazing! We loved "Eataly" and "Roberto Bistrot" and try all the ice cream shops....Bellisimo!!

    Bologna is wonderful, plenty to do for a long weekend. It’s flat so easy to get around. The food (gelato, coffee, meats, pasta) is exceptional. It’s clean and reasonably safe with a great atmosphere. Not overwhelmed by tourists (yet). It’s a good base to travel to Florence (too many tourists), Pisa, Parma …

    Bologna is a very nice city to spend a few days. It is worth to mention that you ca easy access other city’s in the area with high speed train, like Firenze, Verona and Ravenna. Bologna has a good vibe, good shopping and meny good restaurants. If you are into high end shopping you will not be disappointed either.

    The rooms were clean, very comfortable, and the owner (Alessandro) was amazing. They went over and beyond to help make our stay enjoyable. I highly recommend Milleventi Apartments for anyone visiting downtown of Bologna. I have stayed at many of hotels/apartments but this was on the top of the list of best stays/experiences ever. Alessandro was very hospitable and there for every need of mine. He helped us find a taxi at 3:00 am. and then he contacted us if we were arriving at the airport. Alessandro thank you so much.

    Very good location, walking distance to city center and the main shopping streets, also walking distance to Bologna Centrale, where you can take the train and bus to anywhere (+airport). The room was surprisingly clean and large, good water flow in the shower. The breakfast had a wide selection comparing to any other 3* hotels that I have been to. The staff was nice, offered an iron and hot water when we needed it. Small bar in the room (not for free), but at least there is some drinks in the room if you need it.

    We stayed in the apartment just for a night to catch an early flight in the morning from Bologna airport. The apartment was stylish and had a very cool interior. Next morning we all commented how comfortable the pillows and mattress were. As we stayed in the apartment for a very short time, we didn't have a chance to explore surroundings other than a cozy local pizzeria were we had the best pizza we had had on our Italy trip so far. In conclusion, a very clean and lovely apartment which has everything you need!

    Room was very spacious, bright, and quiet. The hotel is a bit further out of the main city centre of Bologna but we didn't mind this as it was just a 30min bus ride to the airport with the bus stop 500m or so from the property (and this was our priority). The hotel was also easy to reach with a short bus ride from the city centre or from Bologna Centrale station. Staff was incredibly polite and helpful when we asked them some questions about how to get to the airport as well as advice on Bologna.

    The Hotel is a gem. It is the classic 5 stars / luxury hotel you can find in the typical art/history cities in Italy. Location could not be better and the staff is a joy to interact with: kind, vibrant and helpful. The room was immaculate and the bed very comfortable to sleep in. Make sure to have lunch or dinner at their restaurant, which is also one of the best restaurants in town, offering a modern take on some of the typical recipes of the regional cuisine.

The breakfast was included in the price and it was really delicious. Great variety of sweet and savoury options. The location is very convenient. It is a 10 minute walk from the train station and at the same time at the centre of Bologna. We totally recommend it!!
