“Good Location, Excellent Hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 December 2011

people found this review helpful

The hotel is not exactly inside the central Bologna, but it's only 2 km away, and the bus stop to take you into town is exactly in front of the hotel. okay, maybe you need to wait around 10 minutes for a bus to come and take you, but the hotel experience makes that up! What a clean and wonderful place to be. I have been to 5 hotels in Italy, and in the Ramada i had the best breakfast! the rooms are wonderful, the bathrooms and modern and spacious, the lobby is inviting and the stuff is there for you. We checked in preety late at night, but the stuff was welcoming and prepared supper for us, even though we missed dinner! Bologna is a lovely place to be, and Ramada makes it better. A budget hotel, with a 5star service.

“Good for business travelers or just for 1 night”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 November 2011

The location is far from the center, by bus it takes you 20 minutes to get there, it is difficult to catch the bus for return trip. The taxi costs us 12 eur. Taxi from the airport costs near 20 eur. Airport is very close - near 10 minutes by car.
We didn't like hotel restaurant. You feel yourself as in the canteen for truckers. We came for dinner at 19.00, sit on the table and only at 21.00 (!) we received our food which was really very basic, small portion and not tasty.

The price is very reasonable. The design of the hotel is nice, wifi works good and is free of charge. The room was clean. Staff speaks English and tries to satisfy all your needs. The noise isolation is perfect.

Room Tip: upper floor

“we got fully our money's worth”

good breakfast, excellent rooms. We got the street facing rooms the 1st night and it was very noisy. When we mentioned the next day, they moved us to the far side and there was no noise of any kind. One caution; For those who don't rent cars, the bus #25 does not come often as their website shows especially in the morning. I had a copy of their bus schedules to show every 10 minutes from 7 to 9 AM but I noticed just "one" per hour. We had to rush our breakfast and barely caught the 7:13 bus, otherwise we would've missed our 7:56 Bologna to Padova train, though it takes 14 minutes to get to the central station. The staff told me that's the Italian thing.
The price was 50 euro average per room for 2 rooms, 3 nights.

Room Tip: get the far side room from the street. beware of early morning bus schedule. They'll pack food i...

“Ok for a nite at a push”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 November 2011

I stayed here for one night, out in the middle of no where, wirless doesnt work properly unless you stand on the bed. Food in the restaurant was poor, grilled chicken looked like it had come out of freezer into the microwave. Only stay here if really need to.

“3-night stay in October 2011”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 November 2011

We found this hotel by chance on the net and chose it on price, rather than anything else. It is modern and stylish, with welcoming staff, and exceptional value for money. We paid around 45 euros per night for a double room, including free wifi and an excellent breakfast with great choice. The restaurant serves fairly simple food for dinner, but it is reasonably priced. The possible disadvantage is that it is rather far out. On the other hand it is easy to reach from the tangenziale and there is a bus (#25) every fifteen minutes from outside the hotel to Stazione Centrale and the city centre. (1.50 Euros, so much easier and cheaper than driving in and parking. Highly recommmended.
