Hotel berhampiran Antichita Galliera di Marina Morisi, Bologna

Two stars because it is a nice hotel with comfortable beds. Thats about it. It is certainly not a five star hotel, which it purports to be. We arrived around 8pm and advised reception that we needed to leave for the airport at five am. At some point reception advises that the booking was for one person and they had to charge us for the second. I have never heard of this! So for the extra person for our 8 hour stay, they wanted €100! What the hell for? I looked on a booking sight and showed the receptionist that I could still book a room (which would come with a free bottle of wine) for two people for exactly what I paid. Receptionist kept saying that it would be more if i booked through the hotel. Lets follow the logic here. Why would i book directly through the hotel if the same room is less on a booking sight? The most irritating part is that she kept laughing inappropriately for some unknown reason. The male receptionist kept insisting that the € 100 was for the ”free” hot breakfast. We reminded him that we had to leave before breakfast was served. He assured us that there would be a cart full of food in the morning before we left. Long story short, that did not happen. There was a cart with coffee and a few pastries. But wait, there's more! The man at the reception in the morning told us that if we had asked, they would have made us breakfast. That would have been nice if it was ever suggested by reception at check in! A real five star hotel would have just taken the initiative to prepare the bagged breakfast for us given the conversation had the night before. I also enjoyed how the staff talked down to us insisting that a €100 per person euro fee is totally normal. Because I've never stayed in a hotel before! Thats sarcasm btw. Again, this certainly was not a five star experience. And just to compare apples to apples, we stayed at a four star hotel when we arrived in bologna 10 days earlier. It was 1/5 the cost, the staff much more accommodating and was just as comfortable and nice. So do yourself a favor and ignore the alleged five star rating and save your money and nerves by staying anywhere else.

The lobby and room was very nice as it’s newly renovated. Location was also great, just opposite the train station and about 20-30 minutes walk into the centre. Staff were all very nice and friendly. The only bad thing was the shower water pressure was too low and the hot water took quite long to come on. The room lighting can also be a bit dim. Breakfast isn’t great so I would recommend to eat outside if you can.

Really nice experience here. Location is great and their service is super nice. If you want something like kettle, just ask the reception. They will accommodate you promptly.

We have arrived to Social Hub in Bologna for our Easter break. Check in was easy - although a bit surprised we had to pay further bill for our stay (city tax wasn’t apparently included in the booking). The communal space is as on the photos. We haven’t used many amenities as the pool was still closed and when we asked about pink pong rackets there were never available (even though nobody played at the time). But I particularly liked the fact most of the plants were actually real. That was a lovely touch. We opted out from having the breakfast (for 12.50€ per person) and had coffee and croissants instead which worked out much cheaper. Our room was spacious (lovely high ceiling) and perfectly clean. Perhaps a little armchair would be nice as it felt a bit empty with just a desk & chair, bed and simple clothes shelving. But for short stay it was ok. There was no complimentary tea or coffee in the room. Just some water bottles. The rest was a payable mini bar. The TV had only one English speaking channel (BBC news) and wasn’t compatible for mirror screening with iPhones (Androids only). Bathroom was super clean. We found the water pressure a bit low but still manageable. Overall it’s a nice place to stay as it’s conveniently placed a stone throw from the train station and walking distance from the old town. Staff was friendly and helpful. Thank you for having us.

They gave us a family room outside of the main building of the hotel. So, we exposed the voice coming from the street. The room was large enough but at the first glance we felt a little bit unsafe, but it was OK. However, there was a draft of cold air in the room that we could not locate, Croissants at the breakfast were the worst I have ever tasted. Please change your supplier. Stuff was kind and helpful.

Everything but the internet was great. The internet on the 4th floor was extremely poor. The signal strength was good, but the bandwidth was very bad. I used my 4G in roaming to create a hotspot. All seven days. As long as you don't plan to stream movies on your computer or stay online, everything is excellent.

My husband and I stayed 7 nights at this beautiful hotel, the staff were amazingly helpful and couldn't do enough to accommodate our needs. The breakfast was fresh and plentiful with enough choices to suit us both. The room was spacious, clean, had an excellent shower and was cleaned daily. The room had clothes hanging space, tea/coffe facility and a mini fridge which we used for our own snacks and drinks. There are spacious indoor and outdoor seating areas. Wifi was available in the rooms and communal areas. The hotel is a 25 minute walk into town or you can catch the number 25 bus from outside the hotel for 2 euros one way. The train system allowed us to travel to Verona, lake Garda, modena and Florence. The hotel is located in the Chinese quarter, we found an amazing Korean restaurant 5 mins walk from hotel, i would recommend this place and i would highly recommend this hotel, and we will return.

Situato vicino stazione centrale ma c’è bisogno di taxi per arrivarci … dalla stazione ci vogliono circa 7/8 minuti .., hotel molto pulito servizio alle reception veloce cordiale è molto disponibile…. camere molto belle e super tecnologiche pulizia ottima (la mia era la 339) colazione al buffet molto abbondante e tutto molto buono con soluzione diverse per soddisfare tutte le esigenze …. con il taxi con una decina di minuti si raggiunge subito il centro .., lo consiglio vivamente a tutti … aggiungo per concludere qualità del sonno ottima e doccia nel bagno maxxi ….. da provare assolutamente

Struttura bella con un grande potenziale, posizione ottima e fermata autobus a pochissimi metri, il bus numero 14 arriva direttamente in centro. Colazione discreta. Pulizia delle camere carente, organizzazione delle camere pessima (lenzuola sporche, capelli di altra gente trovarti sul letto, carta igenica spesso mancante dopo il riordino, da un 4 stelle non ci si aspetta una pulizia carente e un servizio approssimativo. Il tutto è stato segnalato ed abbiamo ricevuto un semplice ”mi dispiace” dalla reception. Personale ”addormentato ” praticamente quasi incompetente. Tutto sommato il soggiorno è stato buono.. letto grande,comodo. La prossima volta però valuteremo un altra struttura.

The hotel is about a 15-20 minute ride from airport The staff is friendly and accommodating the rooms are clean and comfortable breakfast is bigger than most and had lots of good variety and huge pastry selection with fruits and fresh squeezed OJ Lots of shopping and a wonderful restaurant nearby that our party of 14 really enjoyed Miraville Not as pricey as other cities and so quaint. Bologna city center more crowded, graffiti and not as clean. It has the tallest leaning tower in the world and you can climb all 498 steps. only 5 euro Very warm june and humid but at top of tower there was a nice beeeze
