Good parts: - Property is modern and has good amenities; - Rooms are simple and large; - Staff are helpful. Bad parts: - The plumbing waste water stacks have not been vented properly / to code, so the rooms literally stink like raw sewerage; - The location is not great, unless you are staying overnight for train / airport access. Personally, I wouldn't stay there again

Met the needs of our break perfect will consider staying again. Really catered for all demographics. Super close to Bologna train station spotted as we travelled in on Marconi Express. Ignore the negativity on latter because @ 7 mins you’re getting a 1-level rollercoaster ride, fabulous views & less than 5 min walk to The Social Hub!

I had an amazing stay at The Social Hub Bologna! The atmosphere is vibrant and welcoming, perfect for travelers looking to meet people or get some work done in a stylish, modern space. The rooms are clean and comfortable, the staff is incredibly friendly, and the location is super convenient—just a short walk from the train station and the city center. I’ll definitely be staying here again next time I’m in Bologna!

Functional and convinient

TSH is close to Bologna Centrale. Serviceminded staff, reception, bar, kitchen, cleaning. Very good hotel. With a swimmingpool. 7am to 11pm. Gym best I ever experianced at a hotel. Breakfast buffé with everything you can wish to start the day. Tastes very good also. AC worked great. TV only italian channels could have some in english. They have parking, rent a bicycle, you can laundry. We will recomend this hotel.

Is a digital nomad hub wich tries to make everything automated but does not really succeeds. Overall I would have giving it a 3.5 stars but it had a bad smell in the room and a/c not really working. It was passable for 2 nights but we will not return.

We really enjoyed our stay at The Social Hub Bologna. The air conditioning was a welcome relief in the summer heat (37c) and the hotel offers a great range of facilities—access to a pool, table tennis, and a well-equipped gym added a playful and active vibe to the experience. One standout moment was the staff’s kindness when we needed to use the washing and drying facilities before leaving. Instead of making us download the app, they helped us directly, which made things so much easier and showed genuine hospitality. The atmosphere is youthful and energetic, but still quiet enough to relax. A great base for exploring Bologna with thoughtful touches that made our stay smooth and enjoyable. There’s also a fantastic coffee shop nearby—Doppio Civico —with excellent coffee and croissants that made our mornings and right opposite the hotel, we found a really good pizza place. Would deffo stay again

Hôtel was clean and presented in an "industrial chic" style which isn't really our taste but was OK. Bar area was nice and breakfast was brilliant. The hotel is just north of Bologna Centrale station but in an area which didn't feel the safest or cleanest. The walk into the city centre was quite long (15-20mins) and could be navigated by main roads which were better than back streets. The transport was a little limited so despite the distance the walk was the preferred option. Hotel facilities themselves were very good and staff friendly/helpful. Would likely stay at other Social Hub properties depending on the location.

Highly recommended

Very nice stay. Plus for the new gym, the outdoor courtyard where we sat in the evening, laundromat (free of charge), extremely comfortable beds with duvet covers (not very common otherwise in Italy), vibrant energy, pleasant and service minded staff, lots of room to socialize or work. In our room there was a partition between the single beds that I hadn’t seen in the pictures beforehand but it was OK for a short stay. One of the bed lamps was broken when we arrived but it was promptly fixed the next morning. Extra pillows delivered within minutes on request. Close to central station and airport train. Sustainability including waste sorting stations.

The Social Hub has the capacity to be a very good hotel however the lack of management of very rowdy young people running riot over the hotel was hugely disappointing after spending thousands of pounds on trees rooms for our family. This would be very easily fixed with better management for example the students are allowed to cook their own food / bring pizza and beer into the hotel - all great - if they were not allowed to ‘trash’ all the public areas for other guests in the process. The lack of supervision of the young folk in the pool means they also jump in and generally make it very unenjoyable for others too.

Interesting Hotel concept

This Hotel is amazing courtyard to chill free washers dryers concept different than any we've seen. Only negative is I don't think they have many tourists as the Reception staff was not clear about directiions & major bus ticket problems & do it cost us a fine if 270 Euros because u have to use 2 credit cards for 2 people even if husband and wife & the bus kiosk on bus didn't work. Making this crystal clear is important.. If I were Hotel Industry ceis in Balonga I'd put pressure or a Lawyer on them to get a System that works & makes sense. Only 1 Reception person really helped us w facts maps etc & that is Lucia she was Great. Others vague & if no interest to them. Thanks Rob & Terrie
