Just 5 mins from Bologna Station and 15-20 mins from the historical centre, we were really impressed by Madame Bologna. Despite initially being nervous about downloading the app and reliability for the entry system to the gate and doors, instructions were clear and it all worked perfectly. Our host was really quick to reply and very helpful so we felt taken very good care of. The room was spacious especially for such a central location and it had a terrace overlooking large trees. The cleanliness and standard of decoration was incredibly good and the bed comfortable. The coffee machine and snacks replaced daily were much appreciated and our room was cleaned daily. Being in a residential block, it was was quiet at night so we slept very well.

A Royal Stay in the Heart of Bologna: Federica's BnB Location: ★★★★★ Federica's BnB boasts an exceptional location that strikes the perfect balance between convenience and tranquility. Situated within easy walking distance of Bologna's central square, you're mere minutes away from the city's vibrant heart. Yet, despite this central position, the accommodation offers a surprisingly peaceful retreat from the bustling streets. Accommodation: ★★★★★ The moment you step inside, you're struck by the sense of space. Unlike many city apartments that can feel cramped, Federica's BnB offers generous, well-proportioned rooms that allow you to truly relax and unwind. The quality of soundproofing deserves special mention—double-glazed windows effectively insulate against both street noise and the summer heat, ensuring a restful environment regardless of the time of day. Did I mention the excellent air conditioning system? Amenities: ★★★★★ The bathroom alone is worth the stay—a luxurious space lined with marble walls featuring dual sinks, hair dryers, and a magnificent rainfall shower that transforms your morning routine into a spa-like experience. You'll genuinely feel like royalty. The bedroom continues this theme of understated luxury with exceptionally comfortable beds and quality mattresses that guarantee a good night's sleep. The addition of a separate television in the bedroom is a thoughtful touch for those evenings when you want to unwind before sleep. For those inclined to self-cater, a well-equipped kitchen is available—though with Bologna's renowned culinary scene at your doorstep, you might wonder why you'd ever use it! Host: ★★★★★ Federica herself elevates this experience from excellent to extraordinary. Her dedication to ensuring guests have the perfect stay goes above and beyond expectations.

From the very first message, we could feel Mary’s warmth and genuine care. 🥰 Even though we never met in person, her kindness shone through every word — always thoughtful, attentive, and making sure we had everything we needed for a perfect stay. The accommodation itself was absolutely wonderful: spotless, beautifully maintained, and in the perfect location to enjoy Bologna’s charming streets, cafés, and atmosphere. Our room was cozy, comfortable, and filled with lovely details that instantly made us feel at home. It’s rare to feel such a personal connection without meeting face-to-face, yet Mary made us feel truly welcome and cared for from afar. 💛 We’re leaving with warm hearts, beautiful memories, and the hope to return one day. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a special and heartfelt experience in Bologna.🤍

It was clean, nice and the rooms are freshly renewed. Shower is of normal size, not small and cleaning lady comes everyday. The hotel is situated 2 mins from the central train station which is really convinient for those who travel to Florence or elsewhere afterwards. We had questions about opening of the doors, the manager answered at once even though it was Easter - thanks for all the help! The room is quiet, we didn't hear neighbours, maybe some sounds from the street but nothing too loud. The city center of Bologna is not so large, so it's not a long walk to the historical places (I enjoy walking, so it's not a problem at all). Next to the hotel there's a nice bar for those who need coffee first thing in the morning. There's also a paid luggage storage just next to the apartments, so you can leave luggage there when leaving.
