Paradise Hotel, located in the traffic free area of town, is a flat Walk from the train station taking about 15 minutes.
This hotel is in a wonderful location, where we were able to walk to all of Bologna's attractions, as well as some great restaurants in the area.
We received a Pleasant welcome at check in. Gave great advice on eateries in the area and provided a map making it easy to find our way around this interesting city. All staff we encountered during our stay were very friendly and helpful, and spoke very good English.
We had booked a studio apartment for 5 nights, but received an upgrade. The Apartment was located in separate building across the road from the hotel. An Elevator services the building. Our apartment was on the first floor.
The apartment had been recently renovated. It was very spacious and well designed and perfect for our stay. There was a large, comfortable bed, 2 bedside tables, plenty of wardrobe space, 2 lounge chairs and a dining table. The kitchenette was well equipped, including oven and refrigerator. Windows, with shutters, were on both sides of the main room. The ensuite was large, provided with exhaust ventilation, and toilettries were provided. Everything was spotlessly clean. It was generally very quiet, and although we occasionally heard our neighbours, it did not bother us.
We arranged to have laundry done, and it was a Very efficient sameday service at a reasonable price.
Breakfast was served in a room on the ground floor of the hotel. It was very good with large selection, including boiled eggs, Bread, croissants, cereals, yogurts and juices. The fresh cake was an excellent touch and the coffee was made to order. It was very good too.
Free wi-fi connection was available.
We would recommend this hotel and, should we be lucky enough to visit Bologna again, would choose to stay at this wonderful hotel.
