A good place to stay

A comfortable and quiet hotel nearby the railway station. The buffet breakfast was OK with a fair amount of choices. The room requires some update and renovation to meet today's needs, but overall we enjoyed the one night stay.

Perfectly located within a couple of minutes walk to the train station, this hotel is a good option for your stay in Bologna. The rooms are well appointed, good wifi, dining options within the hotel and also within a few minutes walk of the hotel. The Piazza Maggiore and the alleys of the old town are within an easy stroll for shopping and tourist activities.
