Steps from the park (views from the restaurant terrace!), and the city’s best shopping streets. Win-win.

Huge, gloriously traditional rooms housed in a 17th-century manor house (surrounded by idyllic parklike grounds, of course).

Near busses, planes, trains and automobiles (right off the A14) for easy all-mode access.

Exactement en face de la gare, d'où vous flânez sans peine à tous les sites les plus recommandés de Bologne.

WiFi gratuit? Évidemment.

Besoin du WiFi gratuit? Vous l'avez.

Soft colours soothe you to sleep while the pillow menu makes it all juuust right.

Well-placed for seeing Verona’s biggies like the 13th-century Castello Scaligero and Lake Garda. Go forth and conquer.

Just built, and you can almost still catch a whiff of that new-car smell.

A less than 10-min stroll will get you to the Bologna Museum of Modern Art (MAMbo), which focuses on art from WWII to the present.
