Recent reviews of Historic Center hotels

5/5 Excellent

"The hotel is lovely - very friendly and helpful staff, and very clean rooms. It is very close to the station and also within walking distance of the historic centre and all main attractions. It is more of a 'conference/business' hotel but was still very welcoming to families. Breakfast was very good!"

5/5 Excellent

Great location and comfortable clean hotel.

"Hotel is well located near to the historic area for visiting. It was easy to find, check in was simple and the rooms clean and comfortable and fairly spacious! The bathroom was bigger than I expected and it was very nice to have the communal kitchen space. Noted many had complained about the noise and there is some if you are a light sleeper, but it was not an issue for us. It was great to have a storage area for baggage also as it allowed us extra time in the city. I would definitely stay here again."

5/5 Excellent

Beaut little stay in Bologna.

"Fantastic stay at the separate apartment, just 20m from the main hotel. We were on the top floor - a lift takes you up two floors, then you take two more flights of stairs. Be mindful of this if you have large/heavy baggage. But a very pleasant stay. A shame we were only in town for one night! Easy walk to the Centre of town and main attractions."

5/5 Excellent

Highly recommended

"We only stayed one night at the last minute, but everything was perfect. The room was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. A bonus was a kettle - not always provided in Italian hotels - which was very useful for making bottles for our 5 month old daughter. The service was excellent - we had one slight problem that was solved immediately, and the staff were very friendly. They let us check in early just so we could change the baby, and also let us check-out late. Breakfast was a good selection, and again had great service. The location is ideal - less than 30 seconds walk from the main square, but still quiet at night Definitely recommended."
