Pros:

Consigliamo vivamente!
Abbiamo adorato il nostro soggiorno all'Il Canale! La posizione è perfetta, assolutamente vicina a tutto a Bologna. Lo staff è stato estremamente gentile e disponibile, ci ha accolti con molta simpatia e attenzione. La camera era impeccabile, abbiamo amato l'arredamento e l'aria condizionata ci ha salvati dal caldo. È stato molto pratico arrivare dalla stazione dei treni. Ci siamo sentiti a casa. Abbiamo viaggiato con il nostro cagnolino e anche lui è stato accolto benissimo.
Torneremo sicuramente!

Pros:

Ich hatte das Zimmer gegenüber der Rezeption, es war größer als erwartet und das Bett sehr bequem.
Der Empfang war immer sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Als Alleinreisende Frau habe ich mich im Hotel und der Stadt sehr wohl gefühlt. Die Lage ist unschlagbar, nicht weit entfernt vom Bahnhof und allen Sehenswürdigkeit.
Gerne wieder :)

Die Lage sehr gut, Hotel etwas in die Jahre gekommen.
Pros:

Die Lage ist 1a. Ringsherum gibt es ein paar gute Osterias/Ristorantis. Speziell: Je nach Zimmer sieht man auf einen Canale.

Cons:

Der Frühstücksraum ist im 1. UG, aufgeteilt in verschiedenen Räumen. Der Kaffee ist für italienische Verhältnisse schlecht. Das Hotel insgesamt hätte langsam eine Renovation nötig.

Pros:

Отличное местоположение отеля, в центре, в тихом месте. Персонал дружелюбный, хорошая кровать и постель, хорошие завтраки. В целом отличное соотношение цена/качество.

Cons:

В туалете, биде было без холодной воды в смесителе, только горячая вода. Подушка на кровати ортопедическая, может не всем подойти.

Old worldly appeal in a central location.
Pros:

Centrally located, near the old part of the city and only 15 minutest walk to the train station. Old fashioned decor which was nice, and friendly helpful staff. Also we had our own view of the canal from our bedroom window.

Cons:

The breakfast selection was basic but there was plenty of it.
