This hotel was everything we hoped and was exactly what we wanted to enable us to have a great 4 night break in beautiful Bologna.
Location was unbeatable, just off Piazza Maggiore and walking distance to everywhere we wanted to go, yet still reasonably peaceful. Gracious staff in both the reception and breakfast room/Osteria, and whilst we never saw them the housekeeping staff kept everything spotless morning and night, in our room and all the common areas of the hotel, so all a credit to the hotel.
Our room, on the 2nd floor, was more than adequate in size, extremely comfortable bed, plenty of wardrobe space and a pleasant bathroom. It was interestingly themed around an Italian musician, Cage, with great text explaining who he was, so we learnt something which was appreciated, plus we were pretty sure the foam type covering on the doors also represented the Diamond Palace in Ferrara where we visited on the train for a day (can recommend), and we loved how the hotel had kept such a local feel whilst still being boutique, friendly and efficient.
We enjoyed the breakfast, and felt the choice was good including boiled or scrambled eggs, cheese, bacon, sausage etc with plenty of fruit, yoghurts and bread to keep you going, as well as freshly made cappuccino which we really appreciated.
Great value, great location and a great hotel!
