Great location in the center of Bologna.
Pros:

Location is great, just off a corner of the Piazza. Breakfast was amazing and so many choices to choose from. It is a little pricey for a two night stay.

Cons:

Elevator is slow.

Fantastic stay—friendly staff, perfect central location, very comfortable rooms, and we’d definitely
Pros:

We had a fantastic stay at Art Hotel Commercianti and would highly recommend it.
The standout feature was undoubtedly the warm and friendly staff, who went out of their way to make us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. Their helpfulness and attention to detail really elevated the overall experience.
The location is exceptional, right in the heart of Bologna, just steps from Piazza Maggiore and the Basilica of San Petronio. It made exploring the city incredibly easy, with everything of interest within walking distance.
The rooms were spacious, beautifully maintained, and very comfortable, providing the perfect place to unwind after a day of sightseeing. The beds were particularly comfortable, ensuring a great night’s sleep.
Overall, it’s a charming hotel that combines character, comfort, and convenience. We would absolutely stay here again on a future visit to Bologna.

Cons:

Great location and beautiful room!
Pros:

The staff were incredibly helpful. We had a lovely room with a couch and a little eating nook. The breakfasts were delicious. And the location was great.

Cons:

the breakfast room was a little disappointing - in the basement and not very pretty. But the food was great and plentiful.

Pros:

Svidjelo nam se sve, objekt je izuzetno cist, oprema za kupaonu i vise od potrebnog, jedino mi se nije svidjela navlaka/plahte za poplun, to je bila borba, ali to je doista sitnica.

Cons:

Dorucak je bio solidan, slastica jako puno, a slanog dijela je manjkalo, ali opet to je sve stvar ukusa.
