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 better than in this medieval gem.

Bolognese sauce of course originated here, but to try the real thing look out 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 savour their food, so a meal can last for hours.

Many of the best eateries and homemade ice cream shops can be found behind the mile upon mile of porticoed streets, now UNESCO World Heritage listed. 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 over this red-roofed 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 are the buildings of Europe’s oldest university, founded in 1088 and home to the city’s best museums.

Bologna accommodation on Booking.com ranges from small B&Bs to luxury hotels, all easily accessible from Bologna Airport just outside the city.

Apart from the towers (which you can only look at) and the main square (with the wonderful fountain), it's not packed with sites unless you love art museums. I was disgusted by the graffiti, which was everywhere across the city, with plenty of homeless-looking people smoking weed (in front of the cathedral). I have been all over Italy and really wouldn't come back here ever again and I never thought I'd say that about an Italian city but it is just horrible..

Magnificent historic sites, churches and museums.

Magnificent historic sites, churches and museums. The Palazzo dell’Archiginnasio where you can visit the il Teatro Anatomico and the Biblioteca Comunale, when it is open, are a must see! Food is great, but pricey, which makes sense in the heart of the city. All sites are at walking distance, however, there is also a great bus service. Just make sure you are standing at the right direction and have checked the bus schedule for that line. You can combine a day trip to Florence, which is only 20 minutes by train, and not only. There are plenty of destinations reachable by train around Bologna and all worth visiting.

The public transport is convinient. The food is amazing. I didn't took any guided tour and I regret it. I was there 8 days and I think it is a city that can offer a lot more, both culinary and historical places worth. Definitely comming back!

Bologna is definitely a beautiful city.

Bologna is definitely a beautiful city. Wander on foot and discover many beautiful spots hidden in the narrow streets of the city. At the moment, there are tram works going on, and several streets are closed. Some landmarks are also under maintenance, such as the statue of Neptune and the Two Towers, so you might not be able to see them properly. On Sunday, there are neither buses nor taxis running in the old town. Get your bus tickets in advance, because it’s difficult to find tickets in the city center.

I would recommend the walking tour, which is about 2-hours and very informative. It also helps highlight places you might like to return to to look at in more detail. The centre of Bologna is fairly small, so one can see a lot without having to walk too far. We found sitting with a drink on the piazza Santo Stefano was a relaxing way to pass the time, and the prices for meals felt very reasonable. October felt like a very pleasant time to visit - not too hot, but warm enough.

The Piazza Maggiore is where most of the sights are and despite the size of the city this is where you will spend most of your time. Some attractions are a little expensive- like the anatomy lecture theatre and the hall in an old part of the university but, heh, you only do it once. The food scene and the area adjacent to the Maggiore Square is a must do. Prices in Bologna for eating out are expensive, especially given the value of the Australian Dollar, but you can do it cheaply by looking around.

Everything was PERFECT! The room was perfect. Big and clean room, comfortable bed, good quality towels, good quality shampoo/conditioner in the bathroom We moved here from a 4-star hotel , and this room was much nicer to stay than the 4 stars hotel. We also enjoyed a tasty Italian dinner at the owner restaurant. The room is located in a central area of Bologna and is perfect to enjoy the beauty of the old city in a short visit. Paula, the owner, is a wonderful, interesting, and kindly woman. She helped us order a taxi to the airport.

Clean, professional, kind and friendly staff, excellent breakfast! Art Deco all the hotel spaces. An excellent hotel art deco directly and ideally located in the historic centre of the city and a few meters from the main square of Bologna! Excellent view! Quiet and spacious room. Confortable beds! When breakfast for some items was finished, the staff was so kind to cook fresh for instance eggs and omelette!

Great value hotel and good quality. Ideal location, close to airport (but no noise) Airport shuttle service was superb! Easy to get into central Bologna the following day. We used this hotel as a base to sleep - arrived on a late flight on a Thursday evening, had the day in Bologna on the Friday then caught a late flight home to London. Brilliant!

Small, cosy hotel very close to the airport. Large room, comfortable large bed. Good breakfast and excellent coffee. Friendly staff with very good English. The bus very close to the hotel will take you straight to Bologna city centre.
