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.

I found Bologna a very beautiful city.
I found Bologna a very beautiful city. Easy to walk around with many interesting buildings. I am 78 and found walking easy. I found the hop on and off bus excelkent value . I would recommend getting the 2day ticket. There are a range of eateries so one can grab a slice of pizza or have a full meal. The aperol spritz are served with small savoury delights. The food is good. The people friendly.AAnonymousUnited Kingdom - 10Scored 10
Very interesting city. Very walkable.
Very interesting city. Very walkable. The university area is fascinating as is the history of the town - underground canal system, oldest university, etc. It is slightly less busy that other major Italian cities. Great food and nice vibe with it still feeling like a university town (youthful). Had an especially good meal at Da Nello's near Piazza Maggiore. Lots of construction and restoration going on but it didn't really detract too much.

One of the most beautiful cities of Europe, the weather was great and there was a great crowd on the streets. The food n people are nice. You can find history in every corner. We walked almost everywhere. Had an eating tour which was very nice.. Go to Via Pescherie Vecchie, for sure you'll find a spot to dine:) If you have few days you can take a tour to Ravenna to see Dante's tomb, the famous mosaics n have lunch at the Mercato Coperto. I didn't get enough, sure will go back:)ÖmürTurkey - 10Scored 10

Bologna is a very friendly city with a laid back vibe and very safe....the general prices to eat breakfast, lunch and dinner were extremely reasonable which was a nice surprise! Make sure to get the little train up to San Luca, but do it on a good clear day as the views are amazing! We loved "Eataly" and "Roberto Bistrot" and try all the ice cream shops....Bellisimo!!

Bologna is wonderful, plenty to do for a long weekend.
Bologna is wonderful, plenty to do for a long weekend. It’s flat so easy to get around. The food (gelato, coffee, meats, pasta) is exceptional. It’s clean and reasonably safe with a great atmosphere. Not overwhelmed by tourists (yet). It’s a good base to travel to Florence (too many tourists), Pisa, Parma …ClaireSwitzerland - 10Scored 10
Bologna is a very nice city to spend a few days.
Bologna is a very nice city to spend a few days. It is worth to mention that you ca easy access other city’s in the area with high speed train, like Firenze, Verona and Ravenna. Bologna has a good vibe, good shopping and meny good restaurants. If you are into high end shopping you will not be disappointed either.HansNorway

- From $176.91 per night8.2Scored 8.2Very GoodRated very good· 3,303 reviewsOur flight got canceled so we arrived way later than planned. We e-mailed the hotel and they responded promptly that they would be open and waiting for us. This was a welcome relief close to midnight. The staff was very, very friendly and accomodating. I love the comfort of the bed and bedding and my partner reveled in the amenities provided in the bathroom. Breakfast was probably the best we had in our entire Italian adventure. I'd highly recommend this hotel for a one-night stay (only 15 minutes or less from Bologna airport).NKyAdventurerUnited States of America
- From $261.32 per night8.3Scored 8.3Very GoodRated very good· 2,082 reviewsOld Bologna building reflecting city atmosphere. Located so close to Piazza Maggiore which is the heart of city. Be prepared for the smells coming outside cause there is beautiful flower shop just across the street also lots of marcados nearby. If you do not like raw fish smells be prepared cause there is another local store near the entrance of hotel, it hadn’t bother me. Staff were so helpful even they made me a small city route that I just had 3 or 4 hours in Bologna. You’ll adore rustic decoration of both room and lobby.TAYLANTurkey
- 9.6Scored 9.6ExceptionalRated exceptional· 706 reviewsThis property was perfectly located for a visit to Bologna. A 10min walk from the station and you are there, and it’s only 10 more minutes to get to the centre of town. The property was modern, new, exceptionally clean and had everything we needed! It was such a great value for money, and everything was exceptional. The included breakfast was delicious, and the staff and owner were incredibly friendly and accommodating, giving us as many suggestions and recommendations for sight seeing as we needed. Our best stay in Italy!
MichaelSouth Africa - 8.2Scored 8.2Very GoodRated very good· 149 reviewsLocation wise it’s ok about 15 mins to city centre, 25 mins to Bologna Centrale. The studio room is quite small but everything you need is there. I cooked eggs for breakfast and I love the coffee machine! There were also some snacks on the fridge and on the cupboard. It’s actually my first holiday using an apartment as I prefer to stay in a hotel, but when I was looking for a place to stay at that time, there were only 5 hotels available and majority are bed and breakfast/studio type so I decided to give it a try
BernardUnited Kingdom - 8.6Scored 8.6ExcellentRated excellent· 255 reviewsThe room is exactly as in the photos. It is very convenient because the stop of the bus to Bologna Central Station is a step away from the entrance of the building. Very clean and nice. The building itself is located next to a small, quiet park. The apartment has a shared kitchen with two other apartments. I forgot some stuff in the fridge. I called the owner, Roberta, and she was very accommodating to pass it on to a company that handles lost luggage at hotels, for which I thank her very much.

Very comfortable room and modern well-appointed en suite shower room. Reception staff are wonderful, helpful and professional.

I parked at the nearby Parcheggio Piazza VIII Agosto which was easy. Breakfast was excellent with different options available.JeremyUnited Kingdom
- From $1,648.66 per night9.2Scored 9.2WonderfulRated wonderful· 942 reviewsThe Hotel is a gem. It is the classic 5 stars / luxury hotel you can find in the typical art/history cities in Italy. Location could not be better and the staff is a joy to interact with: kind, vibrant and helpful. The room was immaculate and the bed very comfortable to sleep in. Make sure to have lunch or dinner at their restaurant, which is also one of the best restaurants in town, offering a modern take on some of the typical recipes of the regional cuisine.AlessandroItaly

- From $215.39 per night8.6Scored 8.6ExcellentRated excellent· 8,449 reviewsThe room we had was great for the family to come back and relax in after a day out exploring.

ColinUnited Kingdom - From $329.73 per night8.3Scored 8.3Very GoodRated very good· 2,335 reviewsWell located hotel in the heart of Bologna. We were upgraded to a junior suite which was spacious and comfortable. Good air conditioning and shutters made the room cool during some very hot weather. Good breakfast and coffee made to order. Great service from staff. The rooftop bar was good - drinks were a little on the expensive side but they were excellent and the complimentary snacks were the best we got in Italy.
NatashaAustralia - From $215.39 per night8.6Scored 8.6ExcellentRated excellent· 8,449 reviewsEverything. Class and comfort at every turn and yet, probably because it was Bologna, one of the most reasonable in terms of price. Close to the train station, and not a far walk from the center of town. This was truly luxury compared to other hotel rooms at similar prices. Bed, bathroom, shower, chairs in room, breakfast, lobby, and staff were all excellent. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again.JeffUnited States of America
