Reda Vacations from $277

This is not really a hotel. It is a university dorm complex that rents out rooms. We opted for a king bed rather than two singles and it made the room very awkward with nighttime trip hazards. The room was extremely basic. We were quite shocked to see that our duvet had a large brown stain on it concealed by the top sheet. On the positive side it was very convenient to the train station and had a nice courtyard space with bar service. The staff were always very friendly and helpful . It was walking distance to the heart of the historic district and there were plenty of restaurants nearby.

A lovely little hotel, very well located. Very nice staff, lovely rooms. There was a nice sense of calm about the place, and the rooftop terrace is a great asset, with great views.

Everything well

Hotel is close to the train station which was important for me. The food was mediocre and wine portions were small but costs were high. The breakfasts, not included, were expensive. I could open a window which was nice and also quiet during the night. One man at the front desk was not helpful finding a restaurant our first night here. But the other attendants, almost all women, were helpful. For a single woman, the restaurant was a convenience for dinner.

The staff at the hotel were all very courteous and helpful. The bedroom was well-appointed and spotlessly clean. The location of the hotel is not great as there is absolutely nothing around it. It is well connected to Bologna via bus (about 25/30 mins from the centre) which as advertised does stop immediately outside the premises. We had hoped to have dinner on the Sunday evening as we had a very early flight on the Monday morning. Unfortunately the restaurant was closed on Sunday despite being advertised as open 7 days which was disappointing. There wasn’t much activity in the hotel and the bar area wasn’t staffed as such and was a bit soulless and uninspiring. The cost of the hotel was much the same as others which had more amenities around them.
