"There is no front desk so one must use multiple keypads for the front entrance, the room, and the luggage storage area. The apartment was very nice, with a big bed, big balcony, and delightful hot tub. The air conditioning is not American air conditioning but it is within the usual standard for Europe. The wifi is very good. One word of warning however, and this is by no means specific to this lodging--I think Americans see that something has an elevator and think that it must be at least...

Royal Hotel Carlton

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was as is very clean property. Staff was friendly very close to everything"

Starhotels Excelsior

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location just opposite the train station and a short walk to the main square. Helpful and friendly staff. Got an upgraded room which was the biggest room we’ve ever stayed in! Only minor issue was the number of light switches in the room - over complicated. Otherwise a wonderful stay."

Phi Hotel Bologna

10/10 Excellent

"From start to finish the staff were so helpful. The room was spacious, very clean and had modern amenities - very nice shower and walk in closet. They really thought of all the little things such as robes, vanity kits, slippers and extra pillows which made our stay comfortable. The art in the room ads a very whimsical and fun vibe. The breakfast was amazing with a selection of local foods to try! The property is in a perfect location to enjoy Bolognas historic center. Highly recommend."
