Un séjour agréable dans une ville magnifique, vivante bien que chargée d’histoire. Belle étape
Pros:

L’emplacement de l’hotel dans le centre historique de Bologne est un avantage radical: une fois garée la voiture dans la cour, nous avons pu pendant 3 jours nous déplacer à pied. L’essentiel des lieux à découvrir se situant à quelques minutes à pied

Cons:

Rien .

Séjour à 2 pas du centre historique
Pros:

L'emplacement est parfait mais attention en zone ZTL. Accès possible uniquement si chambre réservée. Vue sur Bologne et les deux tours. Parking privé dans l'hôtel. Très appréciable. Personnel agréable.

Cons:

La qualité du matelas (bcp trop dur par rapport à nos habitudes). Petit déjeuner plutôt cher (15 €) et pas plus extraordinaire par rapport à d'autres hôtels.

On garde un très bon souvenir quand même très belle ville
Pros:

L’emplacement exceptionnel en plein centre au calme malgré tout avec une superbe terrasse

Cons:

Pas de chausson ( on n’était pas au courant)
Le petit déjeuner très moyen et cher
La Clim faisait beaucoup de bruit
Taxe de séjour chère (11€ par jour c’est exagéré)
