The Hotel was centrally located and was a great place to stay. The staff were very helpful, and our room was amazing. The history of the Hotel was interesting as well. The decor of the Hotel was wonderful. They offered a storage room for our luggage prior to check out which allowed us to go to lunch without all of our bags. Highly recommend.

A characterful gem in the heart of Bologna

We had double room. At first I was disappointed by the size, but it was brilliantly appointed and thought through. Small touches made it a joy to stay in. The hotel is privately owned and the owner takes a direct interest in the look and service. The rooms and public spaces are hung with modern art giving the spaces a special charm. The breakfast was outstanding.
