    Grand Hotel near Station”

    Grand and elegant hotel within walking distance from Bologna train station and close to historic town centre. Breakfast was provided in large ballroom with plenty of food options. Staff friendly and helpful.

    A hotel with great potential”

    It was a nice hotel but the room was not cleaned properly, the carpeting looked dirty and you can see the fluff and dust bunnies behind the TV table and under the bed, the room was incredibly damp because of the AC not working properly.

    Reception amazing but services …”

    First of all. The personnel did all and beyond for a great experience. If it wouldn’t be because of that k would rate the hotel as one star. So the hotel is really about the people working there I had a room just next to elevator, however the wifi never worked.. I needed to go in front of elevator to get wifi or my son needed to be sticked to the door laying in floor to get some wifi.. I never got such a bad wifi ever. Gym: they have towels and water but the floor is concrete and not cushions so I had to be extremely careful with the weights cause putting them down would make always noise. Also the gym felt like AC was non existent.. so hot inside! The phone in my room didn’t work.. again.. the personnel tried to fix it but it was something on the line itself than the phone as machine.. so never worked. I picked this hotel because of the spa.. and guess what.. no SPA. Basically when on holidays seems like the tourism service is gone… this is in all Bologna.. but I picked this place for its spa and closed? It was really upsetting… and again! I was just ok cause the receptionist was so amazing I couldn’t get upset at her at all. I don’t know her name but what an amazing work she does! She was always helpful and doing beyond everything even with all the things I had in the hotel . So to be honest I’m neutral with the hotel. I feel the hotel itself not so good but it compensates because of the amazing service they offers I wish they would just give better maintenance to facilities, wifi etc and I would call it amazing

    Beautiful outside the room”

    I am writing this because it's rated as 4 star . It's a beautiful classical style hotel , friendly staff and well kept but outside the room. A superior room had a torn ( multiple big holes) , completely worn out carpet right at the bathroom door. I would certainly recommend the hotel management to take care of the room inside the same nice way the reception and hallway is kept.
