We spent five nights in a beautiful deluxe room at the Novecento. We loved the room with two comfortable reading chairs, a large bathroom and a balcony overlooking the quiet square in front of the hotel. We found the staff very helpful and the breakfast delicious. We loved the location a short distance from Piazza Maggiore, and a 15 minute... More

It started with a few email exchanges with the fabulous Francesco at Art Hotel Novecento who could not have been more helpful as we planned our trip to Bologna. When we arrived, he greeted us warmly, helped us find a perfecto restaurant for dinner, and offered several suggestions for the best way to tour the city and experience its wonderful... More

Well appointed room, but tiny. On arrival, the other person on the business trip was sent to the hotel next door because they had over-booked. The bed was tiny, the room was tiny, the bathrobe was leopard print. More

I don't know why I kept getting lost, it is right behind Piazza Maggiore. Bologna is a gem of a town that is off the conventional tourist track and should NOT be missed.

The bathroom was large, modern, and very comfortable. The leopard bathrobes were a treat. The hallway rugs and walls on our floor looked a... More

Fantastic hotel. I went there with my little group of 4 people and everyone loved it. The hotel is super centrally located and all the highlights are within walking distance. The hotel is really a jewel, with beautiful art works made by local artists. The rooms are very nicely furbished, peaceful and extremely clean. Free internet connection in the rooms.... More

Bologna is a surprisingly beautiful and captivating city. Its food is superb and the covered walkways are a real pleasure. The Novecento Hotel is a great hotel located in the heart of the city. It allows you to absorb the pleasures of Bologna day and night. The room was spacious and the bathroom was immense (not your typical comment for... More

This is a good hotel near Piazza Maggiore. It has a lift from the ground floor, is clean and comfortable and has a pleasant breakfast room. Also free internet and a safe with clear instructions, maps etc are provided. I also stayed at 'Orologio' which is a little cheeper, both hotels are central and an easy stay. Only difference is...
