My stay at the hotel was an overall pleasant experience. The rooms were gorgeously appointed and spacious, with enough room for an extra bed for my son during his two-night stay. The service was top-notch, with helpful and kind staff who were attentive to all our needs. The location was convenient, central to major attractions in the city. However, the dining experience fell short with a limited selection compared to other hotels I've visited.

The hotel offers spacious and luxurious rooms with all new bathrooms including separate shower, tub, and dual vanity. While the standard room was a bit small for two people, upgrading to a junior suite provided a spacious and well-appointed experience. The service was exceptional, with staff welcoming us warmly and providing quick and helpful responses. The location in historical Bologna, near Piazza Maggiore, was excellent for exploring the main tourist attractions. The dining experience offered a wide selection of fresh foods in a gorgeous setting. Overall, a wonderful stay filled with luxury amenities, though the standard room size could be a downside for some.
