FAQs about hotels in Bologna
A Gourmet Delight
World-class cuisine is what Bologna does best. Nowhere in Italy, a country with considerable culinary heritage, is the food considered to be better than in this medieval gem.
Bolognese sauce of course originated here, but to try the real thing look for "ragú" on the menu. Cold meats and cheeses are also exquisite. Make sure you save plenty of time for eating – the Bolognese like to savor their food, so a meal can last for hours.
Many of the best eateries and homemade ice cream shops are found behind the mile upon mile of porticoed streets, now UNESCO World Heritage sites. The complex of medieval churches and buildings in cobbled Piazza Santo Stefano is a tranquil spot to explore. Climb one of the Two Towers nearby (not the one leaning at a startling angle) for spectacular views of this red-roof city.
The focal point of Bologna is huge Piazza Maggiore, whose Santo Petronio church has an unimpressive, half-finished façade that doesn’t prepare you for its sheer scale inside. Fanning out from this square, the buildings of Europe’s oldest university, founded in 1088, are home to the city’s best museums.
Bologna accommodations at Booking.com range from small B&Bs to luxury hotels, all easily accessible from Bologna Airport just outside the city.
What Guests Said About Bologna:
- 10Scored 10
Bologna is a fantastic city. The food was amazing.
Bologna is a fantastic city. The food was amazing. The was plenty to see and do and the people were friendly. We walked several miles of the streets to seekout what was published and happen upon things we did no know of that were quite interesting. Bologna ideally located. We plan to return for an extended stay to act as a base point to visit other cities via rail. La Taverna Di Roberto is a fantastic place to eat. We returned there for our last night. Bologna City Walking tour was a great way to learn the city and history and determine what you wanted to go back to spend more time. Taxis are relatively inexpensiver compared to other cities in Italy and a great what to get to the airport or train. Avoid booking a Stay at a place called Home Sweet Luxury. It is not at all what it is advertised and horrible living conditions.

A lovely and unique city with miles of covered walkways...
A lovely and unique city with miles of covered walkways which were both practical (keeping you dry and cool) and architecturally interesting. The city is very walkable with lots of interesting buildings, good restaurants and cafes. It seemed much less touristy than Rome or Florence. You get a sense of being amongst locals going about their day to day business. Giardini Margherita is beautiful and worth a visit. The walk up to The Santuario di Madonna di San Luca is also worthwhile and a very good workout with 471 steps and 3.8km of covered walkway!AnneUnited Kingdom - 8.0Scored 8.0
Beautiful historic city with most attractions easily...
Beautiful historic city with most attractions easily accessible by foot. The Archaeological Museum and Pinacoteca Nazionale were highlights. San Luca Sanctuary walk was spectacular but quite a lot of uphill; best done in the morning, to arrive in time for the skydome access which opens at 10am.

Bologna is steeped in history.
Bologna is steeped in history. I recommend doing a guided walking tour and the San Luca express to the Basilica. The shopping was also pretty good. Bologna is also a sports city with Imola about half-hour away from Bologna (Emilia Romagna Formula One). The soccer stadium is also fairly close to the historic city centre. Bologna is a gastronomic delight - fresh Parmigiano Reggiano, aged to perfection. Fresh pasta, handmade. And the gelato!

Bologna is a college town but also a business center and so a good mix of ages. Good restaurants and plenty of things for tourists to do and see. Easy city to get around and plenty of great places to eat.

Bologna has a wonderful combination of architecture both old and new. We enjoyed the pace as compared to Rome and Florence. The people were welcoming, helpful, and lovely. We had secured and loved our cooking experience. What we did not enjoy was trying to secure a taxi when needed. We found the service unacceptable.TerrenceCanada

- From $1,100.90 per night8.8Scored 8.8ExcellentRated excellent· 1,715 reviewsA little gem in the heart of Bologna! Staff excellent, property was fabulous, room very clean and a decent size for one person with a king bed. Breakfast included, the night I was going to eat in at the property restaurant it was closed for a private function. So the front desk staff made a suggestion to call a local restaurant who would deliver and within 30mins, I had a hot meal in my room! Also had a private massage in my room and a private car to the airport all arranged by this hotel and staff. Would highly recommend this hotel!LuceUnited States of America

They went over and beyond to help make our stay enjoyable. I highly recommend Milleventi Apartments for anyone visiting downtown of Bologna. I have stayed at many of hotels/apartments but this was on the top of the list of best stays/experiences ever. Alessandro was very hospitable and there for every need of mine. He helped us find a taxi at 3:00 am. and then he contacted us if we were arriving at the airport. Alessandro thank you so much.DimitrisGreece
- From $234 per night8.9Scored 8.9ExcellentRated excellent· 3,524 reviewsWe really enjoyed our time here. Close to the airport, close to the centre and also the train station. Staff were all friendly and the reception desk was very helpful. Breakfast was very good with a wide range of offerings. Room was very spacious with good air conditioning. The restaurant is very good, we normally avoid eating in hotels but we ended up having dinner twice here. I stayed in another hotel in Bologna closer to the station and it was very old and tired inside, not the case here.

Breakfast was great, as in all hotels we were in Italy, but the difference is that this hotel has an area with Bologna specialties. <3 Location is great if you carry big bags and luggage as it's right across the main station, and it's a 17 minute walk to the centre.

The room was large and spacious and the breakfast spread was varied, especially for Italian standards. There was an extra charge for fried eggs/bacon etc, however there were plenty of other great foods to enjoy that you don't feel like you needed them. Lots of restaurants in walking distance and took a bicycle to get into the centre of Bologna which was a great way to explore. Good parking in the hotel.LukePoland
