We spent two nights at Aemilia Hotel in Bologna. We were greeted very warmly by a concierge who was happy to share information about restaurants in the city. Hotel is in a quiet street, very close to the polyclinic of Bologna, about 20 minutes walking to the center of town. Room was on the sixth floor with superb views of... More

Only a short walk to the old city walls. Rather stay here than in the (probably more) noisy neighbourhood of the University. Good price. We were two girlfriends sharing and were thankful for a big room and two comfortable beds! Bathroom large and modern. Breakfast very good with great variety, and friendly nice staff. Unfortunately never got to the top... More

Sad in a way that we are checking out today, although more adventure awaits us in the last leg of our 5 weeks holiday in Italy, we will definitely miss Aemilai and the comfort we 've enjoyed the last 4 days. Room is very clean and comfortable (not too keen on the flat pillows though) and good choices at breakfast.... More

I tend to look for hotels which have breakfast included with the stay. Aemilia was the biggest spread of any to date. Excellent quality and friendly service in a clean and inviting space. The hotel room was also excellent. My wife would add that the bathroom was spacious with a jacuzzi tub and a makeup mirror. Very responsive temperature controls... More

We stayed here in late April 2013, having chosen the hotel largely in reliance on Tripadvisor reviews. We were not disappointed. This hotel offers a perfect combination of excellent facilities, good location and staff who are professional and at the same time friendly and obliging.

We stayed here for an anniversary weekend away.
