Hotel berhampiran Palazzo dell＇Arte de＇ Drappieri o Strazzaroli, Bologna

This hostel gets a 5 out of 5 vote from me and you won't find anyone as fussy as me when it comes to hostel reviews. I don't understand the mixed reviews it has been given by people staying here at the same time as myself? The staff are very friendly and help you as much as possible.....a special shout out to Ciara who is very lovely. My room was very clean and my bunk had a charging point, night light and curtain. The only minor problem are the lockers are small and square so you can't really get anything in them - they need changing to bigger ones! The meeting area is just a ten foot square area next to the reception desk with only around six seating places and likewise the kitchen area is also small with a single long table for breakfast that can only seat around twelve people at any one time. The main reasons for this is the hostel is small overall and also only has three shower rooms with the toilets housed within these rooms. This can be very annoying because if you're dying to use the toilet and all three showers are being used, you cannot gain access. The breakfast is substantial as it's an all you can eat comprising of tea, coffee and orange juice. To eat you have fruits, yogurt, ham, salami, cheese and salad. For the English pallet you have different cereals, toast, cakes, biscuits and the use of butter, jam and chocolate spreads. There's also a coffee perculator which can be used at anytime during the day. Within the kitchen there's a large fridge to store your own personal food items if you wish. You are expected to wash up all your items after you finish which is no big deal but something I don't agree with on principle. I'm on holiday and I've paid for my B&B so I don't expect to do their job for them - maybe that's just me? The location of the hostel is very good and within easy reach of the main city centre and tourist attractions with various buses a two minute walk from the front door and the main railway station just a fifteen minute walk away

Notre chambre familiale était très grande et très propre. Le petit déjeuner servi à l’hôtel est extraordinaire : énormément de choix de viennoiseries, fruits frais et autres légumes, jambons et fromages frais. Nous avons passé un séjour exceptionnel dans cet hôtel proche de la gare de Bologna. Nous recommandons cet établissement.

Location is excellent, just across the railway station. There are also sandwich stalls, shops and restaurants just right beside the building. The front desk person is very friendly and gave good suggestions on where to visit and dine. Room was newly renovated and spacious and have lift access. Basic amendities are available as well as flask to boil water for hot coffee. Wifi connection was stable too. Would recommend this hotel.

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.

I only spent one night in the hotel, but it was a positive surprise. A modern, open and pleasant environment within walking distance of Bologna station. Adequate services, young and helpful staff, appropriate technological equipment. A good place to stay, study and work

My room was spotlessly clean, good air conditioning and a comfortable bed. Breakfast had a lovely range of pasties, salami, cheese, rolls, cereals, fruit juice and amazing coffee. Staff were friendly and helpful despite my language barrier. Room had a fridge in which was particularly helpful as the temperatures outside when I was there was 35 degrees. It was lovely to come back to a cool room after a long walk. I would highly recommend the restaurant across the road for the tastiest meal and friendly service - La Nuova Fraschetta

Un ottima struttura, qualità prezzo eccellente ottima per chi va alla fiera di Bologna, più scomoda per chi deve visitare la città. Fermata mezzi pubblici nei pressi dell'hotel ma con un servizio a dire poco catastrofico, con ritardi pesanti e ripetuti, difficile poi fare il biglietto a bordo se non hai monete, le carte vengono accettate solo alcune e, oggi carta può fare un solo biglietto. I controllori se vi trovano senza ticket non vogliono sentire ragioni e vi fanno un a multa di 75 euro, servizio vergognoso per una città così bella e ricca.

The hotel was really clean. It was a really comfortable room and stay. It was located on the 30-minute bus, but the bus stop was close!

The service in the hotel is excellent, people are kind and nice and very helpful. always mobilized for help and assistance. A room equipped with the minimum necessary for the night, a refrigerator with two bottles of water at no cost and a safe. There is public transportation near the hotel, which allows for easy movement. At the reception, bus tickets are sold at the same price that you bought outside, which makes it easier to get around. I was very satisfied with the stay at the hotel

This hotel might be fine for some but wasn't for us. We were bussed and placed here by our airline after our flight out of Florence was cancelled. The hotel looked abandoned from the outside. I felt like the people from our cancelled flight were the only ones staying here. There was no where to purchase food or water. The room was very basic but it seemed clean. I wouldn't stay here if I was traveling alone. Matteo at the front desk was very nice and very helpful.
