Hotel Details

Location

Just outside Bologna's historic walls, 300 metres from Sant'Orsola Hospital and a 15-minute walk from the Towers of Bologna.

The hotel sits in a quiet residential area, 20-25 minutes on foot from Piazza Maggiore and the city centre. Bus 25 connects directly from Bologna Centrale station in about 15 minutes, and public buses reach the centre in under 10 minutes. Within a 5-minute walk you'll find a Coop supermarket, Aldina Gluten Free, Sushi Tokyo, Mondo Pizza, and Osteria Becco di legno. The location is particularly convenient for visitors to Sant'Orsola Hospital or those who prefer a quieter neighbourhood close to the historic core.

Accommodation

Rooms feature tiled floors, a desk, LCD TV, and free Wi-Fi. Some rooms have a balcony overlooking the courtyard. Both private and shared bathrooms are available.

The accommodation includes air conditioning, heating, and soundproofed rooms, though noise from hallways and neighbouring rooms can be an issue due to thin walls. Some rooms have a double bed made from two single mattresses pushed together, creating a potential gap. Rooms on higher floors tend to be quieter. A few rooms are located in the basement with limited windows and may have humidity or odour concerns. Coffee machines with capsules are provided in some rooms. For a more comfortable stay, choose a room on the first or second floor with a private bathroom.

Dining

No restaurant or breakfast is available on site. A coffee machine with capsules is provided in some rooms.

Guests needing a meal can walk to several nearby restaurants within 0.3-0.5 km, including Osteria Becco di legno for traditional Bolognese cuisine, Ristorante Bakkala, Pizzeria I Tramp's, and Mondo Pizza. A Coop supermarket is a 5-minute walk away for self-catering supplies. The lack of on-site dining means planning ahead for breakfast and dinner, but the immediate area offers varied choices.

Amenities

Free Wi-Fi in all areas, free luggage storage, and 24-hour security with CCTV. No lift and no on-site parking.

Check-in is managed remotely via a video screen or phone; reception is staffed in person from 09:00 to 12:00 for early check-in requests. Outside those hours, support is available by phone or WhatsApp, though response times can vary. Daily housekeeping is provided, but some rooms may require attention upon arrival. The property has key access and fire extinguishers. Payment can be made by Visa, Maestro, CartaSi, and MasterCard. The free luggage storage allows guests to explore the city after check-out.
