Top Basilica of San Petronio Hotel Reviews

Royal Hotel Carlton

8/10 Good

"The hotel was impressive. Room was clean and the staff were very helpful. Very close to a lot of places to visit. 10-15 min walk from the Scalanita del Pincio and Piazza Maggiore. Close to the airport as well. Great place for the price."

Hotel Internazionale

8/10 Good

"Hotel is very centrally located and the staff were very helpful and friendly. I would say the look of the rooms were a little outdated( think early 1990s). Super clean. If I were to leave any suggestions would be for a better direction to the parking garage….prior to arrival. Frost desk help was very friendly and super nice!"

Hotel Porta San Mamolo

10/10 Excellent

"Five star hotel. Wonderful location. Spacious and spotless property with friendly and attentive staff. Very comfortable bed, nice A/C. On a quiet lane. Breakfast was outstanding. Will visit again next year!"

Hotel Corona d'Oro

10/10 Excellent

"V good overalls"

Ostello Bello Bologna

8/10 Good

"I booked a private room, which was spacious, quiet, and comfortable. Using your phone to access the room can be a little tricky if you’re travelling without cellular service or data, but the staff will also provide you with a code that can be used to enter your room, as well as access the front door and elevator after hours. There are secure lockers available to rent, along with laundry facilities for an additional charge. I didn’t take advantage of the breakfast option, but it looked quite good. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the lounge and bar area were comfortable and well maintained. The location is excellent for anyone looking to stay close to the train station and the main sights, with plenty of restaurants and cafés within easy walking distance. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for an affordable, comfortable stay in a convenient location. I would also be happy to check out their other locations if the opportunity presents itself."

Hotel Brun

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing. Professional, clean, helpful, all you need. Excellent location."
