First impression wasn't great as it seemed to be a bank not a hotel. You do need to walk up about a flight and a half to get to the elevator. They upgraded us to a suite at the front of the hotel which was very roomy. Large clean bathroom, nice linens in the bedroom. The sitting room was a... More

I had stayed at another of the Art hotels in Singapore which was a star higher than this hotel as when I had been in Florence before I had been put off by the outside entrance to the hotel, but having now stayed here I have to say I could not tell the difference between the two. This hotel was... More

Great hotel. Great location and wonderful staff. Not often you stay in a hotel which has it's own stamp. So warmly welcoming and everybody was so helpful and friendly. They booked the best restaurants for us and gave the best advice possible when asked. The rooms are truly lovely - a real feel of Italy. The location cannot be surpassed... More

But when we arrived at the hotel after a long train ride, its doors were closed. Actually, the entire hotel was closed for the month... More

Positives The owners and staff were absolutely wonderful. Outstanding for a city centre hotel; it had all the friendliness of a family hotel. The can-do attitude at reception meant every request was quickly attended to with apparent pleasure. We were forced to extend our stay because of a strike and they kept open our reservation until we had the details.... More

Having stayed in this hotel every time we visit Bologna since 2001, the friendly service, and care and attention to detail has not changed. As a great value for money hotel located in the centre of Bologna it comes with our recommendation More

The staff were friendly and helpful, eg the restaurant recommendation was excellent value in an atmospheric wood panelled... More
