We recently spent four nights at the Metropolitan Hotel Bologna and were most impressed with our stay. The rooms very large by European standards, finished nicely and very clean. The location is very central. Our room was on the first floor, right above the two bars that are at the entrance to the hotel. We did find some noise flowed... More

We stayed at the Hotel Metropolitan for just one night in May. The hotel is on a quiet street and the room was very nice. The price was an exceptional value. We checked in fairly late in the evening. Our only complaint was the night receptionist who was most unhelpful on simple requests (An example - Q -could you recommend... More

The hotel kindly honored our request for an upgrade given the room price of our standard room was much less now than two months ago. The front desk person helped us get the most convenient parking place in Bologna. The room is comfortable and we are able to get a cross draft for cooling (too early for A/C). The bathroom... More

The Metropolitan is the perfect place to stay in Bologna - beautifully decorated modern rooms, fabulous central location not far at all from the Piazza Maggiore, and everyone was so friendly and welcoming. They were especially helpful to accomodate us for an extra day than we originally booked so we ended up staying for 5 nights and couldn't have been... More

We recently spent 3 nights in this well-located hotel full of small boutiquey touches in Bologna. Check-in and check-out went very smoothly. The personnel at breakfast were friendly and welcoming and did a great job making sure things were replaced as fast as they ran out. The breakfast is very good for italian standards, a lot of fresh fruit, cereals,... More

This hotel is in a great position, near to the main action. A warm welcome, all the reception staff seemed good and spoke english. The room was medium size, with a good size bathroom. As usual, there seemed no shelf to put your toiletries, and the shower similarly had nowhwere to put shower gel/shampoo. And was very slippery, I had... More

This hotel was OK - but not amazing. It felt like a good 'budget' hotel - the room was cavernous (a little TOO cavernous!) but the decor was dated. The bathroom was a little creepy and smelled odd (from the drains I think). The staff were very friendly however, and it was clean - so all in all not a... More

Really good value at 65 euros a night. Hotel is 5-10 mins from the main square and is on a street with plenty of cafes and restaurants nearby. Staff were very friendly and helpful, and luckily i was able to use one of the parking spaces out the front. Only complaint would be a 12 euro 0.2cl bottle of prosecco... More

One minute walk to shops....restaurants...bars all very close by....12 mins to station and 10 min walk to central square. Would definately stay there again.
