18/05/2026: The reviews I've read don't do the hotel, and especially the restaurant, justice. The property is a bit dated but well-maintained. The room was spacious and clean. The staff was extremely friendly. I dined in the restaurant and must say the tagliatelle were excellent, the wine by the glass was an excellent Sangiovese, and the tiramisu was excellent. The location is very convenient for the airport, a 5-minute taxi ride away and well-served by free shuttles in the morning and evening (there are no afternoon shuttles). An excellent option for short stays near the airport.
14/05/2026: Hotel extremely close to Bologna Airport, excellent for late-night arrivals or early-morning departures.
Parking is available, as well as a free shuttle service to the airport terminal.
I had already stayed here many years ago when the hotel was still a Sheraton, and since then practically nothing has changed. Unfortunately, the property feels quite dated and the rooms are definitely in need of a major refurbishment.
We arrived at the hotel after dinner, as we had a 6 a.m. flight the following morning, so we decided to travel to Bologna the evening before in order to get a few hours of rest.
After a quick check-in, we found the room unbearably hot, and it was impossible to cool it down unless we opened the window (which we had no intention of doing since it was raining and windy outside). The bedding felt cheap and the pillows were so thin they were practically nonexistent. I had booked this hotel hoping to get a few hours of rest before my flight, but that was definitely not the case, as the few hours spent there were anything but relaxing.
In the end, you are paying (quite a lot, actually) solely for the location near the airport; everything else is entirely forgettable.
