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.

    If you want to taste the best food, less tourists more locals and a university city thriving with young people you must put Bologna on your bucket list. The city has around 40 km of porticos so you can move around whether it rains, snows or its windy or sunny. The historical center is very compact.

    The highlight was the free access to the Roman ruins underneath the public library on Piazza Maggiore! Really interesting. We also loved the clock tower climb and the portici to the Basilica of San Luca and the views over Bologna. The Pagani & Ferrari museums were really good and interesting as well.

    I recently visited Bologna to see a friend who’s on Erasmus, and I absolutely fell in love with the city! It’s gorgeous, full of charm, and so enjoyable to walk around. One of the highlights for me was the sheer number of lovely cafes, bars, and restaurants scattered throughout the city. The food and wine were consistently excellent—every meal felt like a treat. On top of that, I found the people to be very welcoming and helpful, which made the whole experience even better. Since I was traveling with friends, we made the most of the city’s vibrant nightlife. If going out is your thing, Bologna has a fantastic ambiance in the evenings. The streets are lively with people, but never in an unpleasant or rowdy way, and there’s a great selection of venues to choose from, all at very fair prices. During the day, I especially enjoyed sitting at outdoor terraces, soaking up the sun, and sipping on affordable and delicious wine—it was the perfect way to relax and take in the city’s atmosphere. Bologna truly has something for everyone, and I’d highly recommend it as a destination, whether you’re there for the food, the culture, or just to enjoy its wonderful vibe!

    Large sized room with lovely big windows, air conditioning worked beautifully. The breakfast had a selection of croissants, pastries, tarts and everything else. The staff were friendly and spoke enough English to get by. The price is a little more than average for a B&B but you definitely get what you pay for and feel rather pampered. The walk into central Bologna was not far. I would also recommend the Pizza shop, diagonally opposite the coop and on the same road, which does fantastic food at the cheapest prices I've seen in Italy.

    We had to pick up our friends, arrived in airport Bologna, and then drive further down to Toskana. We already stayed in this hotel several years ago and found it very conveniently located fir our needs. Also we were very pleased by hospitality and comfort. Therefore this time we had no questions where to spend a night. Room was very comfortable and calm although hotel is situated between airport and highway. It is surrounded by trees and makes feeling your vacation has been started.

The hotel is in a great location in central Bologna, with Piazza del Nettuno and the historic centre, shops and restaurants within easy walking distance.
