We recommend this hotel for its excellent and friendly reception. The staff, especially Giuseppe, from Sicily, is very helpful and professional. The hotel is located at walking distance from the railway station. We enjoyed the free wifi service and free mini bar.

When we arrived the hotel bar area was very noisy and busy, the staff were very helpful in letting us check in early, and gave us a map of the city which was helpful. Our room was a bit small, clean and bright, facing the main road, which you could hear the traffic. The mini bar which had soft drinks... More

-internet was down so no email, no work in the room -TV showed lots of channels but none were working - combined with lack of internet meant an early night -restaurant dinner was not bad at all, except very strange that the charge could not be added to the room!?!? -room nice with FOC mini-bar (water, Pepsi and juice only)...

The hotel is by no means perfect but at £58 a night, some of its shortcomings can be overlooked. The location itself is very convenient. Bologna by nature is quite small and the hotel is well located near the train station and on the cusp of the market square borders. The rooms were of average size with a good sized... More

I booked this hotel via the website a month before i would go. A few days in advance I had to change my plans and cancelled the reservation by email. No reaction, so I sended another email. A month later i got my creditcard bill and I saw that they charged me for the room. I called and the man... More

I stayed in this hotel for 2 nights and I must say that unfortunately I cannot recommend it. The location of the hotel is good. However I do not understand why the hotel calls itself Design hotel. The rooms are simple (no soundproof windows so make sure not to get a room from the side of the street as it... More

This hotel was ideal for a recent stay when we spent 5 days sightseeing, based in Bologna. The room was clean and well furnished- lovely bathroom. The breakfast was superb considering the very good price we obtained online. Plenty of food- we loved the big parmesan and Parma ham. Not sure why chocolate brownie was on offer each morning, but...

A slightly strange hotel with very good staff. Small, clean rooms with huge marble bathrooms. On a busy road but with excellent soundproofing. Free wifi but not in the rooms on our floor and not fixable during the four days we were there. Good variety at breakfast but with a ongoing and very off putting fly problem.

Very handy location; beside the bus station,a few minutes walk from the train station and about 20mins from the centre of Bologna. The room was spotless, if a bit small and for once the promise of a sound-proof room turned out to be true. The bathroom was large but a double shower was a bit of a waste in a... More
