We had a very pleasant stay at Il Convento dei Fiori di Seta in Bologna. Staff was very kind and eager to help, our room was clean and large, breakfast standed out in our travels, with best and wide buffet and best service. The only potential issue was the hotel location, which is about 20 minutes from the city center. but that was not a problem for us.

Gorgeous

Gorgeous place decorated with such taste. Good in room amenities and breakfast included. Very good price and top location. Quiet side street, but with cool eating and drinking places along, and about 10 mins walk from the center. About half hour walk from train station. Lovely staff. This will be my go to place next time I visit Bologna

The receptionists were very helpful. Something went wrong with the lift but when we came back all our luggages were already in our rooms. Gave us map and recommended some good restaurants. Very accommodating. Not so near from the city center but walkable.

Nice hotel, friendly staff

The hotel is in an old convent. I had a ground floor room with very high ceilings and dramatic lighting. The appeared to be a window high near the ceiling, so it could not be opened for fresh air. The room had a mini split, but it was malfunctioning and didn’t always work. A staff member checked the controls and everything was set correctly. It was a mystery. The room got quite stuffy with out the fan or AC working. The was also an on/off rather bad odor from the bathroom drains. Overall though, a very pleasant stay.

Hôtel très convenable, et très bien placé pour rejoindre les principaux points d'intérêt. Mention spéciale adressée au personnel : poli, toujours disponible et agréable, très professionnel. Attention toutefois à la suite : celle qui est présentée sur le site n'est pas forcément celle attribuée. Ne vous fiez donc pas aux photos.

Appreciate that it is a very old building and very unique but better soundproofing is needed. No excuse for poor quality towels and bedsheets or toilet paper. If you're going to provide toiletries, you need to provide more than just 4 bottles of shampoo.

Stayed here since it's near where our daughter is living while studying in Bologna. Very cute - an old convent converted into a hotel. Rooms were decent sized and the breakfast was good. A little walk to the Piazza Maggiore, but there are businesses close to the hotel - a supermarket right next door.

El hotel está en un edificio antiguo, la recepción está muy bien conservada, con el estilo de una casona, conservando algunos frescos en la paredes, y partes de un trampantojo. Pero, la habitación, no es que conserve un estilo antiguo, es que da la sensación de ser la pensión donde me quedé por primera vez en Melilla por trabajo hace 25 años. Yo entiendo que la estetica en los hoteles en Italia no se cuida, pero esto es un hotel de 4 estrellas siendo el máximo 5, esa es la escala, y esta habitación no lo representa.

The hotel itself is very charming, and the staff is super nice, they make an effort to give a good service to guests. However, we experienced noise (loud footsteps) coming from upstairs early morning and late nights. Also, shower pressure was very weak so shower wasn’t super comfortable. Breakfast lacks some options. Location is great, walking distance to downtown.

The reception staff was very friendly, the hotel is definitely not a 4 star Hotel and I don't understand how they manage to get that since everything is old and nothing modern, it looks like earlier was a church so it makes interesting the stay, I don't think I will be back but it was ok for a couple of nights.
