The hotel is small. Conveniently located near the railway station. The rooms are average, the furniture is old. Breakfast is quite poor, but a great omelet. While in town selling fresh vegetables at the hotel buffet we have nothing, even fresh tomatoes, which are a huge variety in the market. The hotel does not correspond to a 4 * but... More

I stayed at this hotel for three nights as a base for visiting Padova and Ravenna and Milan. The Hotel is just across the square from the railway station and is a welcome sight after walking all day to visit other great cities. My room was in the back overlooking a beautiful formal garden. The mineral water was free and... More

We have spent one week in this nice, clean hotel with a very helpful and friendly personnel. Location right across the railway station was excellent for us, because we have been exploring the region by train. City center is 15 minutes walk away. The only thing that I would improve there was shower equipment, which was a bit old .... More

For the third time I have stayed at the Mercure Bologna Centro, and I was correct in expecting again good service and professionalism from the hotel staff. The room that I had needed a little refurbishing, but on the whole it was again a nice experience. The breakfast was varied and inviting. The hotel and the rooms are always kept... More

Going to Italy you mostly expect for breakfast great coffee and some bread and jam. And that's it. But not in this case. Really good breakfast with excellent choice - eggs, cornflakes, variety of cheeses, meat, fruits, yoghurt, juices etc. And of course - great coffee. This combined with a great location just opposite the train station where bus from... More

We choose this hotel for its location next to the train station. It turned out to be one of the 2 advantages, the other being the nice lush garden. This place is very old and needs to be urgently refurbished. The rooms are ok but in some areas the ceiling comes off and the carpet appears as if it hasn't... More

As we stepped out of the train station there is was just across the street. Bologna was a wonderful city with everything within walking distance of the Mercure. The beautiful girl at the front desk spoke beautiful english and guided us each day through any questions we had. It was raining when we arrive and the city has beautiful covered... More

Directly across from the Bologna Centro train station…staff was wonderful and couldn’t do more to assist us. (One staff member behind the desk made ten or so calls for us to help us hunt down a perfect dinner reservation…) The lobby and bar are very nice, with the bar looking out onto a nice small park. The rooms were comfortable... More

Stayed here for 2 nights, 3rd & 4th April for trade fair at Bolognafiera. Very central, directly opposite central station, good location for restaurants etc and free shuttle to trade fair centre just across the street. Less than €20 for taxi from/to airport! Hotel fine for short stay, very clean but a little worn and tired in places, a couple... More
