Nice hotel - big room but kind of basic, good breakfasts, quiet (although could hear everything the people in the room next door were saying!), clean and really friendly & helpful front desk staff. Just a 10-15 minute walk from the city with a supermarket on the way for you to stock up on fruit/drinks if you need it. Off... More

The reception was friendly and helpful. The garage was good. Good breakfast with lots of goodies. The location is ok. You had to walk some distance to get to the old town. Some parts were not so nice to pass when it began to grow. More

This is the best compromise between price and value. A hotel located close to the city center of busy Bologna. Quiet and clean with all the hotel facilities one requires. The price is more than fair. Would book it again next time I am visiting Bologna. More

On arrival the aircon was only blowing warm air, we were transferred with no fuss to another room where the room temperature was acceptable. Room was very quiet and spotlessly clean, as was the bathroom, all linens and towels were a pleasure to use. The shower was a delight also, copious hot water at a high pressure. Breakfast, although not... More

When you book, don't confuse it with other Best Western hotels in Bologna (there are at least three). This one is some 2 km outside the city centre, with rather modest rooms (it's being refurbished, but the bargain deals on Venere get you older ones, I suppose), but free parking. Good news for low budget travellers is the supermarket nearby,... More

This is your average hotel. It neither exceeded of failed our expectations. Our room was nice, the staff was reasonably helpful, and the continental breakfast was good. The city center is roughly 15minutes away by foot, which is a rather nice walk if you enjoy wandering around by foot. More

We stayed here for 2 nights. The staff on the front desk were always quite friendly and helpful. The room was a good size with a large window that opened and overlooked the greenery of the front courtyard which was fairly quiet. The room itself was fine for the price although the fittings were looking a little tired. It took... More

Staying in Bologna only for a couple of days, we wanted to be central to the city, but found a lot of the very central hotels were quite expensive. The Best Western City hotel was great value and a nice straight 20-30 walk into the centre. It was an easy, straight, safe route, and made us feel less guilty for... More
