Staff were friendly and helpful. Room was basic but clean. Stayed in February / March so not sure how good the aircon would be in summer? Otherwise a great location and everything is within walking distance.

Pay more, stay somewhere else.

Not usually one to complain, but this hotel was extremely poor. Plug sockets didn’t work, towel rack hanging off, completely depressing room in the attic and looks like it hasn’t been updated since 1970. There’s old furniture stacked up on every floor, pushed to one side. Elevator wasn’t working, so I called room service, just once, and was told to use the vending machine on floor 2, cash only, for water. Staff were nice, but the hotel needs a massive revamp. Pay more, stay somewhere else.

The facility service was impeccable. They seamlessly arranged transportation to a hidden gem restaurant in San Giovanni, Osteria del Mirasole, and facilitated my transfer to the airport. However, the cleanliness of the washroom could use some improvement. Overall, my stay was peaceful and comfortable.

Excellent location

The hotel was situated very near to the main square. The room was well equiped but had a fan instead of aircon. The breakfast was a little basic.

While this was a great hotel, it sure could use updating. My room was a bit dull and could use some art of something to make it more homey. It sufficed as this is a work trip so I didn't spend much time in the room.

Florence

Disliked: Cleanliness
Hotel palace charges way too much for a 4 star hotel. The rooms are very shabby with old carpeting. There is a 4D movie theatre next door and you will hear and feel the vibrations of the movie. The floors are wooden and the walls are paper thin and you will hear everything. The bathrooms are very tiny and old. There is no air conditioning. I got a fan but the fan made a lot of noise. There is also no mini fridge. However it is very conveniently located near Piazza Maggiore and is near all the major sights. The hotel is about an 15-20 min walk to the train station. Overall it is fine for a one night stay out of convenience but it’s not good value for your money.

Staff was kind , we only stayed for one evening ,however the toilet ran the whole night and the tank leaked everywhere. The bed was horrible you could feel the springs in the mattress dig in to your body every time you moved. However it is located right in the heart of Bologna so exploring the city was nice and easy .
