Il Valentino In Bologna

19/03/2026: We stayed here in mid-March and were very impressed overall. Our room was spacious and clean, with a good blackout too. There was complimentary bottled water in the fridge, and some nice toiletries too and free slippers. Noise from other rooms and from the corridor was minimal. Unlike other reviewers, we did not find the hotel dated (and we have stayed in many Italian and European hotels over the years). The staff were very helpful, both at checkin/out, and in the restaurant. We arrived in Bologna Centrale by train, so a taxi was the cheapest way of getting to the hotel early evening (as the hotel clearly advertises, the complimentary mini bus does not run all day). We did use the minibus in the morning to get to the airport for our flight. We ate in the hotel in the evening and the food quality was very good, even if the service was slow. We also had breakfast and it was impressive, with a good range of cold and hot food. We would certainly consider staying here again if in Bologna - thanks to all concerned for a comfortable stay!

09/03/2026: Great location near the airport. Friendly staff, efficient check in and exit. Food at the restaurant better than expected, Ragu was yummy! Free parking. Parking was safe. Bed a bit soft for me.
