We had stayed in NH before in Madrid and it was very nice, this one in Bologna does not feel like a 4 star hotel. We booked a family room, they gave us a 2 rooms with connecting doors. The place is listed as family friendly, we had our 3 year old with us and there is really nothing for kids, not even a playground. The room was not very clean, the bathroom had mold in it, the room smelled like someone had smoked weed in it. Breakfast was ok, and staff were great and friendly. The hotel’s restaurant was closed for the first two nights, so imagine arriving with a toddler in the evening and no food available at the hotel. Luckily there are plenty of restaurants around.

Nice, but don't depend on the bus!

Nice hotel but not close to the city. There is a bus stop just outside, and we waited for the bus there, but it just went right past us. Easy walk next door to a fabulous shopping center. Breakfast was worth it. We had trouble sometimes finding someone at the bar to get us drinks or ice. It was a restful stopover after several weeks on the road.

Although the hotel itself was good - they had no restaurant catering throughout the whole weekend apart from breakfast. The hotel is situated a long way from town - buses didn't run Sundays so we had hotel lobby food microwaved- not good! We would not have booked this hotel had we known the catering arrangements. The bus into town and back stopped at 8pm so no dinners out without getting a taxi back which was about E20- very disappointing - Bus service was good during the day.

Worth the money

Clean hotel. Inexpensive. It had free parking, which we needed. I live in the US and not familiar with the customs in Italy, but it seemed super strange that a country in which people drink so much coffee, the rooms didn’t have a coffee machine. It was inconvenient in the morning to dress up and start looking in the hallways for a coffee dispenser. We found one in the lobby. Otherwise, the hotel was great.

Exterior does not match the interior. The hotel feels a bit run down and worn off. The rooms are great size and have most fascilities you need. However it doesn’t feel like a well maintained NH property which are usually of great quality. At check in the receptionist was also not very helpful. He literally handed us a key and didn’t even give directions or explanation of the facilities , very unlike the usual NH hospitality. The air in the rooms also felt very stuffy and hot and we all woke up with sore throats and dry mouths. Mattresses were soft and some even u stable. Overall the property can benefit from a refresher and maintenance. Staff were not all bad, we were only a bit let down by the receptionist who checked us in for the lack of his engagement and cooperation.

location misleading....noisy traffic area....changed rooms three times due to internet connections....and I was going thru a death in the family with a zoom call set up to discuss funeral arrangements which did not happen due to internet. one of the rooms I was given was a room that dogs were allowed in and I am allergic to dogs. No manager available and front desk staff was rude unhelpful and one even laughed in my face. I would never suggest anyone stay in this hotel or any of their sister hotels. Staff need to be retrained. Room was cold. One young man in training tried to help but he felt bad as he knew what an awful situation I was dealing with. I want a complete refund. Spent a fortune in taxi fare as it was so far from everything. Very misleading advertising.

I arrived to a nice hotel in Bologna NH Hotels for the Iron Maiden concert. Customer service was terrible. They had no idea how to get to Parco Nord by bus. They told me take a taxi, like I want to get rip-off. I asked about going by bus; they didn’t know. I asked them if I needed to buy tickets to the bus, yes I must have a ticket. I was sent to a supermarket in a shopping mall quite a distance. At the supermarket they told me I don’t need a ticket. I went back to the room at hotel, no internet. I went downstairs again to ask about the Internet, I was told to come downstairs to the lobby and connect from there. I said NO I paid for a room with Internet. I told the hotel staff that I was baffled by their lack of customer service skills. Then he told me if I wanted to go another hotel, I said I would love to go to another hotel unfortunately I had already PAID for this room and going to the concert. I had to ask twice for card to get to the room and neither one worked. Finally, a incredible nice family with Maiden shirts saw me crying at the lobby and they gave me a ride. As a tourist coming from USA I was so distraught by how rude the staff in the hotel is and almost everyone is in this city. Don’t waste your time and money Bologna, much less spend $135 for room and be treated like an annoyance and give customer an attitude Thanks to Yu, Stefano, and the kids for helping me feel welcome and let me join them to go to the concert. It was cancelled due to bad weather
