This hotel is spotless, looks a little dated from the outside but really modern inside. The front desk staff were really nice. Gym is spot on, little table football downstairs for the kids, and a pool table upstairs, all free too. The restraunt is clean, although I didn't have di ner there. Breakfast was just what you expect, no complaints there.
I do feel one of the staff members could come across more friendly, also heard another grouo say the same thing.
You do feel a wee bit isolated where it's situated but if you look into it there's a small town on the way to bologna that we popped into on the Sunday as nowhere near by was open, we found an amaizing little pizza shop, doesn't look impressive from the outside but woowsers the pizza was banging you cam get the bus to bologna, very regular service and the bus always appears on time. Beware though o. Hiw to purchase tickets, we asked someone on the bus and tapped my card for a family of four, this isn't how it works. Ended up getting a 117 euro fine, extremely unlucky as the people who check your tickets aren't always on the bus. So make sure you use a different card for every traveler. We tried to explain it was an honest mistake. Any hoo hotel was great and would def stay again.

When we got to the hotel, we went to the hotel restaurant to eat dinner. There were only two attendants, and one guest sitting at a table plus we were sitting at our table; and the rest of the tables were unoccupied, so the room was pretty much empty. We ordered a vegetable pizza with drink plus a grill chicken (it was a slice of chicken cut into pices) but was over done and too costly) and baked potato (it was small potato, sliced like french fries, soaking in heavy oil and over salted, tasted terrible although we complained, th attendant insisted it was baked). The pizza was good but the chicken and potatoes tasted terrible. Our hotel oom was very small and the water easily got clogged up during the shower and flooded the whole bathroom floor when showering at night and in the morning. When calling front desk/reception, staff didn't pick up the phone. We couldn't control the temperature in the room, it was too warm so we couldn't comfortably sleep. Breakfast was included in our fees for the room. We were able to get our tea and coffee plus the food items about 30 minutes before 10 am. However, the attendant was upset when it was getting close to 10 am as she closed the main door of the breakfast/ dining room. She was very rude to us telling us to leave although we were still eating our breakfast at our table. We told her we are almost done but she was very unhappy about it. The breakfast room was pretty much empty with only a few guests occupying two tables.

Quality and service not like 4 stars hotel

The receptionist had a wrinkled shirt and the check-in time was long. The bathroom was dirty, looks like the shower is not clean up to date, there is mold and moreover the water from the shower spills into the bathroom and the whole floor is wet. The air-condition was loud and buzzing that we couldn't sleep, to which the receptionist told me that I could turn it off.... It was unpleasant because how were we supposed to sleep in 30 degrees celsius??? Besides, the breakfast was limited, the kitchen service was unprepared, because there was a bus of guests ahead of us who ate practically everything, used all the cups and no one controlled it and did not keep up with it. I had to go to the reception to intervene that there was no food. For a 4 stars hotel it is very unprofessional.

Other than a sports conplex next door and a gas station with in walking distance there is not much near this hotel. I thought that it was close to the airport but it was a 15 to 20 min drive. It cost around $19 for our taxi each way. Our stay here would have been better if we had rented a car and didnt have to rely on taxi service.

The hotel was clean and comfortable which was what we needed after a long day. Breakfast was a bit disappointing. The hotel says it does free shuttles to the airport - which it does in the morning, but not at night so we had a very expensive taxi ride to the hotel as there were no other options.

Ok for a night but not much longer

Arrived after midnight from a late flight and left early morning. The surfaces in the room and the bathroom were very clean but the decor is very dated and has an ‘old’ smell. The bed wasn’t the comfiest one either. Some of the rooms on the other side of the corridor appear to have received an update. The breakfast was very basic but enough to get you going. The hotel is near the airport, reasonably priced and so ok late night stay over when public transport is not available but I wouldn’t stay longer than a night. There isn’t much around the hotel.

My room was on the first floor - as soon as you came out of the lift you were hit with a smell of dirt and it looked dirty too. However, the room was very clean and comfortable. The TV didn't work at first - picture quality was not great either but a member of staff came to help and replaced batteries. Breakfast was good.

My room smelled like train stations' smoking room

When I entered the hotel I thought I will leave next morning eventhough I booked 3 nights. My room was compleately unbreathable from smoking. The hotel is in a middle of nowhere which makes your taxi drive very expensive. Second day I discovered great breakfast and bus stop in front of the hotel so I finally stayed. If there wasn't a cheap bus directly to downtown I would probably leave. Hotel has atmosphere like you are back in 80's maybe back than could have been 4* today I would say 2- 3*.

Bologna Best Western near airport

The hotel is conveniently located near the airport, but there's nothing really all around. So I would recommend this hotel for travelling people who need a location near the airport. Taxi fare to the city is way too expensive, so staying just to visit Bologna is not an option: you can find other hotels for the same price in the city.
The hotel was clean and the service good. The bar is convenient, is practically open 24/7 (there is no service at night/early morning, but it is open as a buffet).
The restaurant is ok, not too enthused, but nothing to complain too much. I didn't appreciate the fact that they were treating one of their immigrant workers pretty bad. Overall a nice stay while waiting for a flight home.

Frukosten var jätte bra och frukostpersonalen var mycket trevlig. Restaurangen som serverar middag var katastrof.
