Hotel Metropolitan

10/10 Excellent

"Nice location. Fantastic spacious room and bathroom. Friendly staff."

Almarossa

10/10 Excellent

"Had a lovely stay. Staff was super helpful and friendly. Hotel very clean. Elevator was a big help with stairs. Yes it is on a busy street with a lot of circulation at night but it is convenient. Only wish there a fridge in room or to share on my floor."

Royal Hotel Carlton

10/10 Excellent

"Had a great experience at the Royal Hotel Carlton in Bologna! The staff were super friendly and welcoming from the moment we arrived. The room was clean, comfortable, and way more spacious than we expected for a central hotel. Plus, the location is perfect—right near the shopping hub of Via dell'Indipendenza and an easy walk to the city center. Highly recommended!"
