"LOCATION Zanhotel Tre Vecchi is about a 10-min walk from the Univ. of Bologna. TRAVEL It is an 8-min walk from Bologna Centrale ~ Bologna’s main train stn (allow yourself about 10 mins if you have luggage, or prefer to walk slowly). ROOM & BATHROOM The room was tastefully decorated, though small. The hotel follows a green policy, providing premium toiletries in refillable dispensers, minimising single-use plastic containers. DINING OPTIONS The hotel opens out on to Via dell’Indipendenza ~ one of the main arteries in Bologna’s historic quarter, and a parade of restaurants, shops, cafés, and heritage architecture ~ leading from Bologna Centrale to Piazza Maggiore. STAFF The staff are warm, friendly, helpful. I wanted to make the pilgrimage on foot to the hilltop basilica of the Santuario della Madonna di San Luca, situated c. 3.5km from the city centre. Seeing my determination to do this on foot, and not take public transport, the receptionist kindly worked out the best/safest route for me on a map. The walk there and back was effortless. I had an early-morning train to Padova the next day, but was reassured breakfast in the restaurant would be ready before my departure. BREAKFAST PLENTY of excellent fresh fruit, yoghurts, juices, a selection of cold meats/cured meats and cheese, a selection of hot food items, and the most scrumptious cakes. SAFETY Being on the Via dell’Indipendenza, the Zanhotel Tre Vecchi is in a busy area of Bologna that feels safe."

"Spaceous room, excellent breakfast and wonderful staff!"
