Hotel Il Guercino

Very nice hotel with great ’flair’. Excellent breakfast and amazing staff who are all friendly and always helpful. Sound isolation (in Suite) is better than usual in small Italian hotels. Rooms and public areas very tidy.

Location is suprisingly far away from the old town and the main squares, if you walk. Yes: you can see it on Google, but reality hits you when you are there. The Flower Suite is in need of refurbishment. The Suite is true to pictures on the website, but it would definitely need an upgrade (shower, power sockets, windows…) when you look the price per night.

This hotel is located just outside the center of Bologna. The city center is however walkable from the hotel. Our room was satisfactory in size for 3 women. The breakfast served every morning was a reasonable cost and ample. There is a small bar located next to the hotel which was quite nice for a little appetizer and evening drink.

Our only complaint was that the room smelled of cigarette smoke. We did inform the hotel and they tried to fix the problem but we still had that stale smell for most of our stay.

The family room was spacious, very well equipped hotel. We used the bikes and cycled around the town, perfect! The hotel was in a good position for the train station to go to the airport, it was also located approx 15 minute walk to all the restaurants and shops. The hotel was small but beautiful, we also used the spa. This was excellent value as we paid 35 euros each for 1 hour. We used the plunge pool, the steam room and sauna. For this price, you get the exclusive use of the spa! Would defo book again!

Nothing!

The suite was clean, calm and spacious. The beds were comfy and cozy. It's next to the train station which was really good!

They need more options to hang towels ore store your stuff in the bathroom. A propper wardrobe would be fine, too

Very cosy hotel, nice breakfast, very kind staff considering my previous experiences in Bologna. In a city were standars are "let's ripp off the tourist at any price" I very much appreciated the service amd attitude of this hotel; a real pearl! Nice room, well appointed, huge bathroom, very comfortable matrass. Staff at breakfast room was served by very charming professional ladies. Personal at reception were extremely kind, too.

Just the central heating in rooms was a bit complicated to control; everything else about the room was fine.

Close to train station. Bed comfortable. Eclectic first floor/lobby. Front desk staff very helpful.

The lobby was colorful and fun, yet the bedroom was more like a hospital room. Stark walls. Bare minimum. Small. Felt like we were in a youth hostel. I was expecting it to be a bit nicer.

The hotel is away from the street with entry through a courtyard, which is shared with the surrounding neighbours. Quit charming but Can be noisy. Nice Big room which was very cosy. The neighbourhood itself is rather interesting with lot of local daily life and very few hotels and restaurants. However there is a Nice winebar next door and a very good trattoria, which is a little hard to locate. You have to ring a Bell from the outside

I stayed 3 nights with my wife. Staff amazing friendly in all sections,I messed up with hairdryer since were different volt and cut power on our room Person on front desk night shift immediately came up and fix the problem. Very tasty breakfast,cozy set up the whole set up perfect. Location was 3 minutes walking from Train and Metro station no need taxi at all.

Nice breakfast, nice environment, friendly and helpful staff. Quirky, attractive declr.Just 250 metres behind Bologna train station so easy access but no noise of trains. Our room had a big balcony and there were two small bottles of water in the fridge. The shower was good pressure and nice clean fluffy towels. Although it's 1800 metres from the centre, you can easily got a 27a bus from near the hotel which takes 5 mins to get to Piazza Maggiore (you can buy bus tickets from the little newspaper shop next door to the hotel). There are also some nice looking trattoria, take away pizza and ice cream parlour near the hotel.

We requested twin beds well in advance,, but were given a room with a double bed which was very bouncy so neither of us got a good night's sleep as we woke each other up every time one of us moved.

We really liked the outside patio for drinks in the evening, the staff were friendly and helpful and there was a room to hold our bags in on our last day allowing us to enjoy our food tour and a little more exploring of Bologna before we left.

The spa could have had a special guest rate and the location was good for the station but a little bit of a walk into the centre.
