NH Bologna de la Gare

Located just steps from the train station, this hotel offers unbeatable convenience for travelers arriving by rail. The staff was incredibly welcoming and even allowed me to check in at 12:30 PM—earlier than the official check-in time of 3:00 PM. That was a pleasant surprise! My room came with a kettle, which made morning coffee or tea super easy. The single bed was generously sized and very comfortable, perfect for a good night’s rest. Clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully equipped, this place delivers great value. I’d definitely stay here again when visiting Bologna.

Residenza Pellacani

Staying at this apartment in central Bologna was an absolute delight. The location couldn’t be better—just a short walk from major attractions and perfect for exploring the city on foot. The space was immaculate, well-designed, and extremely functional. I really appreciated the thoughtful touches, like disposable slippers provided for guests—such a small but meaningful detail. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed, and to our surprise, there were bottles of water, juices, and soft drinks already stocked in the fridge—definitely a nice welcome gesture. Sleep quality was excellent; the bed and pillows were incredibly comfortable, making for a restful night. The hosts were incredibly warm and helpful, always ready to assist with recommendations or local tips. It felt like staying in a home rather than a rental. This place offers fantastic value and a truly memorable experience. I’d highly recommend it to anyone visiting Bologna.

Marco is truly exceptional—thoughtful, meticulous in every detail, from the thoughtfully prepared breakfast to the spotless cleanliness. I always choose his B&B whenever I come to Bologna for work, because he genuinely takes care of his guests. I don’t usually write reviews, but after two years of consistently welcoming me with such warmth and attention, I feel he absolutely deserves this praise. The room is cozy, quiet, and perfectly located—just a short walk from the city center. I appreciate how personal and genuine the experience feels. If you're looking for a place that feels like home, this is it. Highly recommend staying here.

45-Tourist House Bologna Oberdan

The location couldn’t be better—just a short walk from major attractions and right in the heart of Bologna. The apartment is charming, well-equipped, and feels like a home away from home. Everything you need for a comfortable stay is here, from kitchen essentials to cozy bedding. The only downside was a bit of confusion around the cleaning fee: the platform clearly stated it’s optional if you clean yourself, but we were charged anyway. Still, this minor issue doesn’t take away from how great the overall experience was. Excellent value, fantastic location, and a very welcoming place to stay—definitely would book again.

Residenza del Duse

Stayed one night at this charming property and was thoroughly impressed. For just €70 per night, two people enjoyed a quiet, well-insulated room with excellent value for money. The bathroom is located outside the room but is private and secure—perfect for storing personal items. The mattress was comfortable, and the room was already warm upon arrival, which made a big difference in the chilly evening. The TV was modern with access to Netflix and YouTube (requires login), though I didn’t get around to using it—don’t know if there were any setup issues. In the morning, I brewed coffee and herbal tea using a high-quality kettle, and appreciated the small kitchenette with fridge—ideal for light meals or snacks. The overall atmosphere was peaceful, clean, and welcoming. The bathroom was spacious and beautifully designed, with a generous shower area. I was genuinely happy with the entire experience. Bonus: just a short walk away is a fantastic little restaurant where we had a romantic dinner—elegant dishes, reasonable prices, and great ambiance. Highly recommend both the hotel and the nearby dining spot. Would definitely stay here again.

San Giovanni in Monte Apartment

Definitely avoid this property—no cell signal at all, and the Wi-Fi was completely non-functional. I reached out to the host multiple times, but they just said 'I don’t know' with zero effort to fix it. After three nights, I had to go outside to coffee shops just to get basic internet access—felt like I was living in a cave. The bathroom door was broken too, making it awkward to use. To make matters worse, we needed to register for the city tax, but instead of help, we kept getting pushy emails demanding compliance. The lack of support and poor communication made the whole stay frustrating. Don’t waste your time or money—this is not worth it.

The Social Hub Bologna

Staying at The Social Hub Bologna was a great experience overall. The room was clean and functional, with a particularly comfortable bed that made for a restful night’s sleep. Noise insulation is average—nothing to complain about, especially considering the hotel’s central location. What really stood out was the proximity to the train station; it’s just a short walk away, which proved incredibly convenient during strikes when taxis were scarce or unavailable. Having a 24-hour front desk was a huge plus—it gave peace of mind no matter what time I arrived or needed assistance. For travelers who value location, convenience, and good value, this place hits all the right notes. I’d definitely stay here again on my next visit to Bologna.

B&B Elegance

Perfectly located in the heart of Bologna, this B&B offers easy access to everything you’d want during a short stay. The room was clean, simple, and well-equipped for a few nights—exactly what you need when you're on the move. Check-in is handled remotely via WhatsApp, which works smoothly once you get the hang of it. However, it could be a bit clearer in the booking instructions: first-time guests might not realize they need to wait by the door for someone to answer the phone before getting inside. That said, it’s a minor hiccup in an otherwise great experience. The location, cleanliness, and friendly vibe make this a solid choice if you’re looking for a quiet, convenient base in the city.
