As a female solo traveler, Hotel Centrale was a perfect accommodation. The hotel has everything that I need. It is close to many shops, cafes, and restaurants. There is also a nearby grocery store where you can buy toiletries, snacks, and other essentials whenever needed. Although the hotel is located in the center, it is never unruly or noisy. It is also within walking distance of the major attractions and sightseeing in Bologna. The breakfast was superb, with a lot of great selections of croissants, bread, pastries, jams, juices, coffee and tea, eggs, and bacon. Check-in was seamless and the staff were super friendly and accommodating. If I were to visit Bologna, I'd definitely stay with Hotel Centrale again.

Hotel breakfast was really excellent!. Lots of choices and the opening time was very good. Staff people were very kind in all, if something was missing, they were ready to help and react. Hotel is really well located close to everything in the city.
I found the room temperature a bit too warm. Especially in the night had to keep window open which worked fine. Also the pillow were bit too hard to me.

Nothing to fault. Excellent location, just a few minutes walk from main piazza, two towers, via indipendiaza, train station, Venice canal view point. Nice little bar across the street for a peaceful nightcap. In the centre of everything, but one street back from the main street so very peaceful and calm at night. Also so many excellent restaurants for all budgets and a big supermarket a few mins walk. This was the only hotel that we stayed at during our 2 week trip to offer breakfast. Scrambled eggs to die for! Hot bacon, cold meats, cheese, yogurt, fresh fruit and fresh fruit salad, lovely breads and preserves. More pastry varieties than I have ever seen! And, most important, 2 decent coffee machines. Family run, very friendly and helpful people. We could store our bags before check in and check out. They also called a taxi for us to go to the airport as it was raining very heavily today when we left. Free toiletries, shower cap, vanity set. Really good shower in bathroom. The biggest bed I have ever slept in. Brilliant WiFi. Would recommend to anyone spending time in this beautiful city.
Not a criticism of the hotel but just to advise people to inform yourselves of the city tax and you need to pay that at reception when you're checking out, so keep some cash! I had looked this up in advance.

The apartments are located in the building across the street from the hotel. The rooms have high ceilings, over three meters, but very warm in winter thanks to the large cast iron radiators that were permanently heated. It was quiet on the stairs, there was never any noise, I didn't see anyone through the window either, just overlapping roofs. Breakfast is served on the ground floor of the hotel and is varied, satisfying almost anyone: slices of ham and cheese, omelette, pies, various croissants, yogurts, clementines and bananas. Coffee machine with probably good coffee if you were judging by the people's faces, but I'm not a coffee drinker.
There were only Italian channels on the TV and no matter how beautiful the language seems, at some point you still want to hear some English.

It was a lovely and cozy hotel. The location was perfect, very close to pretty much everything, the old city, museums, train and bus stations. Breakfast was satisfactory. Only I personally expected some Mediterrenian touch such olives, different type of cheese, tomatoes and cucumber (typical Turkish breakfast style 😃). My friend was quite happy though with all those gustoso pastries and I was ok with scrambled eggs, fresh bread and fruit salad. The staff from the front desk and especially the room service were so kind and helpful. We loved our room so much. Especially the skylight. Bologna was so refreshing and soothing. I definitely would go there again and stay at Hotel Centrale.
Well, although I knew that there was a city tax, we have not told that when we arrived the hotel. I usually am used to pay the tax in advance, when I check in. So I was surprised when the front desk staff told us to pay it when we were checking out and my friend -who did not know about the city tax at all- was also surprised. We kept some cash for the taxi and did not want to use credit cards, but we had to.

I have already stayed there for four nights and I am still here. The stuff does speak pretty good English, even the room cleaners do speak English communicatably. On the first evening, I got sick with corona, to which I most probably got infected in Verona during an opera performance in the Arena. It was very severe: I had a body temperature of about 40°C. I wasn't able to walk properly. The staff was very helpful: at 11pm on the first evening, they called a hospital for a doctor to come in. Because I wanted to quarantine myself and I was too weak to leave my room, they served breakfast in my room according to my desire. When I ordered food from outside, they told the deliverers where my room is so that they were able to place the food in front of my room door. There is a nicely decorated entrance hall, not very big, but enough space for several simultaneously arriving/departing guests with their luggage. In the also pretty small breakfast room, this hotel provides a huge breakfast buffet that is just wow! Unfortunately I took my breakfast there only once. There is an elevator that brings one to the floor of one's room. I have a single room on the 1st floor which is pretty small but comfortable and well equipped with a nice bathroom with a bidet (which I love to have), a closet with hangers, a small desk and a shelf with a small fridge inside and a TV on top. My room is absolutely quiet, absolutely no noise from outside: I was able to sleep and recover well.
Unfortunately, there is only one English program available on the TV, and all others are in Italian: no French, no German, no Dutch, no Spanish, etc. But for me, this is no problem.

the hotel is very central, you can walk everywhere in the old town. the staff was very friendly, breakfast was great with many different choices. we stayed in one of the apartments across the street - the room was big and clean, bed was ok, the heating was working well. we had to pay the city tax at the checkout - we would have prefered to be charged at the check-in.
the kitchen was unfortunately not very well equiped, and the bathroom could use a little update (or at least an extra shelve or hooks on the wall)

The breakfast was good. The location was near many of the sights we wanted to see.
Two items: 1) The pillows were awful. Even stacking one on top of another, my head sank almost to the mattress (side sleeper). They needed to be replaced. 2) There was a room undergoing reconstruction two doors down from ours, and from the time it started until we left, three days later, there was a faint but constant odor of a sewer in our room. From the noise, we assumed they were cutting/chipping away concrete to reach piping.

This opinion is mine so it’s personal, there it goes: - just loved the guy who checked me in when i arrived the 1st evening: he was so smiling, so funny, almost like a brother i think? he gave me tips of where to eat that evening, we exchanged a few words and opinions the second evening i was there because i went to a concert of a band he liked too. It’s not that the other persons i met at the reception were bad, but he definitely stood out. - my room had tiles, which was amazing because they were so cool/cold, i think in full summer it would have been even more amazing. - there was an additional mirror in the bathroom, for make-up…i swear i never saw a similar one elsewhere! - they even had cottonswabs available in the bathroom, helpful because i forgot mine at home
So the things i didn’t like are not life changing for me, i would stay there again: - minifridge only working with the room lights on, so yeah i had to sleep with the lights on (i tried to cover them a bit but i didn’t get comfortable sleep.) also the fridge was dirty inside, even the products that were in it were covered by some black…thing that looked like mold but was not mold. - no mosquito net unfortunately, even at the end of may there were mosquitoes inside (and come on, it being an extra small room you couldn’t keep the window closed) - bed was weird, it had wheels, so it moved all the time..especially with the slippery floor

Excellent location - close to both the city centre and the paid car park. All staff are super cooperative and proactive. Breakfast was good, especially if you are into pastries. Having a window in the bathroom was a real treat.
The bathroom is very small and the shower cabin is even smaller - even getting in and out is an issue. The water pressure is weak so it takes forever to take a shower. The bed is somewhat hard and the pillows are even harder, plus you need to sleep on two as they are pretty thin, too.
