Hotels Near I Famosi Tortellini della Nonna in Bologna

Perfect stay, few steps away from the train station and the historical center, right in front of the Montagnola Park. The room was perfect, ready despite my early arrival. A huge thanks to Tommaso and the whole front desk team for the kindness and the professionality, you really made the difference! See you on my next visit!

The breakfast and gym were great. The breakfast had a wide variety and was all delicious. The gym was spacious and had a wide variety of machines, so I was able to relax to my heart's content. It's not in front of the station, but it's within 5 minutes and is quiet, which is nice.

The hotel conveniently locates only a street across the main train station. Front-desk staff also was very helpful and cheerful to all my needs. Everything in the room worked perfectly without problem. All in all, the stay was very pleasant and I highly recommend this place. The price might be a little higher comparing to other hotels but it totally worth the price.

Service was professional and breakfast spread interesting mix of local food. It was very conveniently located opposite the bologna central train station.

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.

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.

There is no soundproofing: you can hear every rustle. There is a kettle, thank you, but we had to look for a socket - almost under the bed. They asked us to pay for breakfast at check-out, but we were not there! ”Sorry, probably a mistake.” But it is unpleasant. Pros: clean and inexpensive

Our room was not cleaned very well. On one of the towes there was lipstick from a previous guest. Many of the elements and details in the room were off or broken, which is not to be expected from a 4 star hotel. The windows had no nets to stop the flies. The person at the front desk asked me for a credit card for a deposit for the mini bar in the room. Although I told him I do not intend to use the mini bar, he insisted to provide a card in order to be able to check in and as I did not want to leave my card with anyone, he wrote down my card details. The room temperature can’t be controled and it was so hot, that at one point I woke up middle of the night and thought I had died and went in hell. There is nothing near the hotel so the only water you can buy is from the mini bar and it was extemely overpriced. The breakfast was pretty much the only thing on point as the waiters were very nice and polite! All in all, for the price which was the cheapest the hotel is an acceptable option in case you value your money and can close your eyes for a few things.

I have to say I had a great time staying there, with very helpful staff like Doina, Sara. Place is reachable by public transportation with very good supermarkets Esselunga, Lidl around. And there is plenty of parking spaces. Breakfast is with many choices and staff are friendly. I had an event on Sunday there, all staff were so helpful.
