Hotels near Palazzo Orlandini (Casa natale Guglielmo Marconi), Bologna

We chose this hotel because of the location just a few minutes' walk from the station but still close to the centre. It proved to be a good find. This is a quirky place, with a very narrow frontage that goes back a long way, almost to the next street. It seems to be a converted house: our twin room had a double height space right to the tiled roof, as well as two bathrooms. The single room was small. Both were adequately equipped although the location of charging points for phones wasn't ideal. The aircon worked very well. Don't expect great views (or in fact any views at all), but it's a quiet location. Unfortunately the walls are very thin so noise from adjoining rooms is a problem. They serve a decent continental breakfast and the receptionists were very helpful, even offering to refill our water bottles before we went exploring on a warm day.

Affordable hotel in the historic center of Bologna. The room has a classic style, with a parquet floor, and a modern bathroom with nice green tile to match the color of the walls in the room. The A/C works GREAT. (and we are here with hot outside temperatures.) Our room faces interior - so there is no real view, but there are automatic moveable shutters that when they are closed, block the light for sleeping, and when open, let in a lot of sunlight. The windows can open, so if coming in a cooler time of year, might be nice to let in fresh air. The room is a decent size for two (two twin beds) - for the money, I'd say it is a good deal (I have had smaller for more money in Europe). The breakfast is very nice. Hot eggs and bacon, and a variety of breads and pastries, muesli , fresh made cappuccino , cheese, meats, juices, etc. The lobby has several rooms to sit quietly - and the reception area is very nice. The front of the hotel lets out onto a pedestrian only street in the historic center - but if you take a taxi, you can be left off at the back entrance to the hotel - very convenient from the train station or airport. The staff is friendly and professional. For the price, I would most certainly recommend and would stay here again if I return to Bologna.

After a tiring search to locate a place to stay in Bologna that was convenient and close to the train station, we were lucky to find this gem that was a 10 minute walk to the train and about a 20 minute walk to the center. Alessandro was great in welcoming us after a 10 hour flight from the US and showed us to our spacious and comfortable room. The next morning Alessandro had an array of breakfast items ready for us in the kitchen room next door. This is was perfect stay in a quiet neighborhood away from the boisterous historic center. I would stay here again if I was in Bologna!

The hotel's location is excellent, a stone's throw from Piazza Maggiore and via dell'Indipendenza (shopping street). Clean and well-kept rooms with modern furnishings and excellent room services (breakfast and pillow menu) Careful and very good breakfast (both salty and sweet) with the classics of traditional Emilian cuisine

It's very close to the airport, so it's convenient to catch a plane the next day. Breakfast is very average, only cereals can be soaked in milk to satisfy hunger. Room space is good, soundproofing is not good, sneezing next door can be heard.

The Hotel is very close to the airport and close to a bus stop to airport/central train station/city centre. 300mt far from a shopping centre. Only few steps from a restaurant/pizzeria. The staff was very friendly and gave us all the info needed. The hotel offers late check-in, they provide you with a pin cose to open the main door. We arrived before 11pm so didn’t need to use it.

The room is very large and well-equipped. It is very good in Milan. In the suburbs, don’t get in and out of the hotel too late. It takes about 5 minutes to the subway station. There is a large supermarket. Breakfast is okay. It’s cheaper than eating outside. The keychain is too heavy. The door lock can be opened after a long time

The B&B is not as described, we were taken in to the flat which has cctv in the communal areas and given a set of keys. The man who met us at the gate spoke no English so we did not understand him and as he left quite quickly he did not give us much information. The property did not feel particularly secure as we heard what sounded like someone trying to open doors in the flat multiple times. The “air conditioning” in the twin room is actually a medium sized fan perched on a chair. When looking in the mini fridge in the room there was an open and use bottle of water. The buffet breakfast was some stale package pastries left on the table with some dirty cups. We left after 2 nights and chose to stay somewhere else as we did not feel secure or comfortable there. I’m addition to our twin room there were 3 locked rooms and we were unsure if we were sharing with other people or not, and we were not comfortable leaving our valuables there as the front door did not lock properly. I would not recommend staying there.

The environment is great, close to the train station and convenient. The room is very sanitary and the price is not bad.

It actually operates like a hotel, without cooking, but it is clean and tidy, with a coffee machine and breakfast rolls (order a bread and coffee in the cafe downstairs). We found the place easily with the map. Fortunately, I met a resident at the door who taught me how to go upstairs! Look for the doorbell of B&an Chez Moi Lame 57 at the door and ring it, and then follow the instructions to elevator B to get up! The location is very convenient in the city center!
