Millennhotel - Bologna

Hotel near the station, clean and quiet in a good position. It is 10-15 minutes walking distance from main square and cathedral. Staff very polite competent and helpful. The only think avoid late breakfast, could happen that the offer of food becomes quite imitated (when the hotel is full)

This is a modern business-style hotel that has already seen better days. The ground-floor reception areas are fine but the carpeting on the public areas of the accommodation floors is really stained and dirty. It's the first thing you notice when you step out of the lift, which then makes you start looking out for other faults. The room was fine (the floor here was made of wood) but the bedcover was old and faded -- and the venetian blind in the bathroom didn't work. What a shame that this hotel is letting itself down by the lack of care and attention to things like this. Breakfast, by the way, was excellent, but the tea machine was broken.

A lovely place to stay. Quality services, over the top breakfast. All members of the staff were kind, helpful and absolutely professional. The location is superb, and frequented. The downtown is perfectly accessible on foot in minutes.

I stayed in room 606 for one night and would come back any time. good room, very good location 3 minutes from central railway station, 15 mins max. from old town square, very rich breakfast, excellent price-value-ratio

I had stayed at this hotel twice before and been very pleased with it. But I was a little disappointed this time. The staff at reception and in the breakfast room seemed overworked and rather stressed. The hotel is also in need of redecoration. Nothing has changed in at least five years, and the hotel is in need of some painting and brightening up in the public areas and bedrooms. But it is still a very comfortable place to stay and the location is excellent, near to the central station and city centre.

Weekend prices are excellent, and location is hard to beat. Accommodations are top notch. I would definitely stay there again.

Millenhotel caters for both business and holiday clientele. Very quiet street but also close to main attractions,shops and train station. Rooms are totally clean,bathroom new with clean towels. Variety of breakfast buffet,delicious !!!!

The staff allowed me to leave my luggage behind the front desk as I arrived in Bologna early on the morning of check-in and left after the required check-out time. I didn't feel well the night of my stay and, therefore, didn't want ot go out for dinner. The front desk was very friendly, ordered a pizza for me and had it delivered to my room. There is good variety at breakfast with both salty and sweet selections and fresh espresso or cappuccino served by the bartender. The room has a Sky satellite hookup and the bathroom was clean with good hygiene products provided. The only downside was that my "non-smoking" room smelled terribly of smoke. The odor did not go away even with the window open.

Very good location! Close to the Bologna Air Port (it takes 10min by taxi) and 5min from the Central Station. I can go the center part of the city by walk, but if you want you can rent a free cycle at the station or close to the hotel. There are many rental points.

It was nice place and also the price. Very close to the Bologna centrale station about 5 min. Then we can use Internet at hotel front and Breakfast also fine. Thank you again for hospitality. Just problem is they wrote their website that the service of navetta (between Airport and Hotel as Euro 15) . Even if I ask then before the stay, they did not replied.

Exelente Hotel, en todos los aspectos, esta cerca de la estacion de Tren, cerca de la Via principal de Bologna, vale la pena mencionar que en Bologna solo hay un lugar para cambiar dinero y solo aceptan cheques de viajero...

It was my first time in Bologna and i strongly recommend Millenhotel to everbody..

The Millenhotel turned out to be a real find. I liked the idea of an hotel that was only six floors as I think larger hotels can lose the personal touch with clients. The building is close to the Faranese Gate and the gateway to all Bologna has to offer which is a lot. It is very close to the train station and the Aerport bus which costs five euros and takes twenty minutes to reach Marconi terminal. This was my first trip to Bologna and it certainly lived up to my expectations. The medieval centre is a joy to behold and the standard of cleanliness is very high. If you are a culture vulture you are catered for from the museums which are free to the Art Galleries and the Opera in Via Zamboni. I feel I saw the real Bologna, a vibrant, working city at ease with itself and not a tourist trap. There are many reasonable restaurants off the Via Independenza, one I especially liked was Il Portico opposite Restaurant Donatello near Via Piella. It was a small family run place with a modest yet excellent menu. Take the city tour, get on at Piazza Maggiore just 10 euros but worth every cent. Walk and walk and enjoy the little parks and havens where you can indulge in reading or the magical sound of Italian all around you. The hotel was very comfortable, excellent beds and wardrobe space and the bathroom generous with all complimentary tolietries. The breakfasts were excellent with personal service from a charming morning staff for whom nothing was a chore. I will definitely stay here again and plan to return this year. I cant wait, Viva Italia!!!

We stayed for 2 nights hotel very central to train station and historical centre. couldn,t be better would go again

Wonderful, clean, comfortable, affordable hotel. We were very pleased with our stay. THe staff was very friendly and competent, the room was perfect. I would definitely stay at this chain in other cities.

My main problem was the size of the single room. The en-suite bathroom was nearly as big!

I would have liked a more rich breakfast. When i went for mine at around 9am most of the food available was finished. The quality of the food was in general good but some of the products were industrially made rather than freshly made. Overall is a very good value for money hotel especially if you need to have access to the train station and Bologna city center and local market in "La montagnola". Free Internet point and kind staff.They alsosuggested a good restaurant close by.

A professional attitude shown towards those staying. Very helpful service from employees. Good breakfast in pleasant dining room. The hotel is close to the main train station and within walking distance for those arriving by train. A twenty minute walk gets you into the centre of the old city. My room had a pleasant and spacious bathroom. Carpet in the bedroom though clean, could do with an upgrade.

Good hotel, everything worked as expected. Convenient location close to the train station and not far from the city centre.

We would 100% stay here again, excellent service and staff are very friendly

Convenient location very close to train station and airport bus, and a 15 minute walk into the centre of Bologna. Very friendly and helpful reception staff, who provided restaurant recommendations and transport information. Excellent breakfast with wide choice of quality foods. Huge bathroom with good towels and toiletries.Very good value for money.Only negative was the worn and marked state of the carpet in the room and on some floors. However, would definitely stay there again.

Excellent service. Very nice and helpful staff. The train station is 5 minutes walking from the hotel. The breakfast is excellent. Good capuccino, but without anything of hot food.

Verry good place, high quality, some even speak french there, which I appreciate.

Clean hotel, v good breakfast, helpful staff. location near station but in quiet road - good for trips outside Bologna. Short walk to centre, might be a bit far if your health limits your walking

Good location very near the train station. Clean, modern hotel. Helpful front desk staff. Very Good breakfast. 10 minute walk to city center.

This hotel is literally 2 blocks from the main train station and is a 10 minute walk to City Center and to the Unversity. A very good choice!

This hotel is excellent - staff very friendly and helpful, rooms lovely - serviced and clean linen every day. Location excellent, we were able to roll our cases to hotel and be out sightseeing within 15 mins of arriving at Bologna bus station. Breakfast buffet was excellent. Definitely would stay here again.

I was very happy with the rooms. I have been travelling around Italy and this hotel had the best price/qulaity ratio so far. I would recommend it

Close to centre of town, business hotel. Excellent breakfast, well laid out room

This is a very good hotel.

The hotel is just a short walk from the railway station and the main street in Bologna. About 15 min walk to Piazza Maggiore along the main street with shops. Nearby restaurant Bolognese had good food. The room was clean and looked nice. Air condition worked well, but we had to call the reception to get lower or higher temperatures. But that was not a problem, it's 24 hours reception service. Breakfast was just excellent, the best we've had in Italy. Lots of different choices and very much fresh fruit. The staff in the reception was nice and helpful. The hotel is a very good choice for staying in Bologna.

Great on quality/price, perfectly located if you want to be close enough to the railway station without the noise and hustle that comes with it. You can also borrow bicycles which is the ideal way of wandering around Bologna.

Staff was very accomodating and friendly, and the location was quite convenient.

Es un hotel excelente, nosotros estuvimos solo un día, cerca de la estación y a 10' andando por la ciudad hasta la plaza. Si se necesita coger pronto un tren es fantástico, pero aún así el ir hasta el centro es un paseo. Hotel casi de lujo, sus habitaciones son estupendas y el desayuno excelente.

Good hotel, 3* similar to a 4*. Very near to the train station, and in 10 minutes walking you are in the centre of Bologna.

El hotel se encuentra en una zona muy céntrica, cerca de las estaciones de bus y tren y a 200 metros de la principal via de Bologna. Al centro se llega caminando por sus interminables y bellos soportales. Desayuno correcto, sin alardes, todo en frío, pero variado. Bologna merece la pena y en tren te acerca a cualquier sitio de la región como máximo en una hora.

When you travel by car, this hotel is very good located,there is a garage available and in two minutes walk you are in the mean Via Independenza. Very, very good breakfast!

My room was noisy in that the ventilation system of the whole hotel gave out continuous and very disturbing noise which could be heard in my room. The hotel staff fixed the problem only on the last night of my stay. But the hotel is very near the train station. My room is large and clean and has a fridge. The bathroom facilities are also good. In view of the facilites and services provided, it is excellent value for money. I couldn't complain much.

Central enough - great breakfast. Move away from a room by the lift

Make attention that,if you make the payment for riservation,they will sharge you full ammount,in the case you stay less days

The hotel is close to the train station - just behind the hotels immediately across the street from the station and much less expensive usually. There's also less traffic on the street in front of the hotel. It's an easy walk to the center of the city where there are many good restaurants. A cab to the airport is around 16 euro in the early morning. Breakfast is very good. I've stayed here several times rather than leaving home at 3 am for an early flight and have never been disappointed.

This hotel was very comfortable and reasonable price. Room was new and clean with a card-key. There were three electric-sockets in a room and it helped me very much. The location is 5 minutes walk from the central station and also convenient for a short-trip to neighboring cities by train. Internet access by wifi is available at 10 EUR for total 60 minutes. I feel that it is expensive but gives fast web browsing environment.

Great 3 star hotel in a good location for driving to or coming in from the station. Nice rooms and a great breakfast buffet

Breakfast is simply FANTASTIC!!! the best in Bologna, I think

Close to railwaystation and general communications, and also to city center with shops and bars, cafés and restaurants. Short distance to Bologna fair area. Really excellent breakfast. Smal but tidy and high standard rooms. Very expensive WiFi.

A fairly-priced accomodation in a good location - 5min walking from the station as well as 5 min walking from the city centre. Recommended

It was my second stay at the Millennhotel and I chose it this time because the previous stay (four years ago) had been so good. The high standards of the hotel have been maintained. The location is excellent--near the station but in a quiet street. The staff are friendly and helpful, and the breakfast is outstanding--the best breakfast I've had at any three-star hotel in Italy.

We visited Bologna to see the Morandi collection and the university. The hotel was a short walk from the train station and a reasonable walk to the central city.

I enjoyed my stay for lots of reasons, the room is a good size, and clean, the bathroom excellent with bath sized towels !! However the staff are extremely impersonal, I was there for 5 days and did not have a single human interaction with any of them. If this not very important it is a great hotel to stay at, located about 5 mins from the train station. Do not eat at Restaurant Bolognese if you can help it.... there are other v.good ones out there - try il veliero about 5 mins walk away.

Pleasantly surprised with the room, very clean, nice fittings and decor. DISAPPOINTED; Booked because the web said the hotel had transport for airport., but this was a lie (error) by venere.

Ottima locazione, ottimo prezzo e prestazioni, direi un 3 stelle superior.

The price was very high due to a convention in the city, but the hotel is close to the train station with easy access to the airport for early morning departure. The main square is easily walkable via covered gallerias along a shopping street. Efficient employees

L'albergo e` molto carino e il personale gentile. La colazione self-service a volonta` con il caffé o cappuccino fatto al bar dalla cameriera. Il bagno grande, la camera al punto giusto. Matterassi un po' vecchiotti pero`...

Le stanze dell'hotel, pulitissime, sono però molto piccole. Non si merita l'elevato prezzo che ha. Inoltre i receptionists sono molto scortesi e poco competenti. Buona location, vicina alla stazione e al centro. Ricca colazione a buffet.

Good Hotel with easy access to the center and to the Railway station

An excellent place to stay. Great location and accommodations and breakfast.

Se torno a Bologna sicuramente dormirò qui, molto vicino alla zona fiera. Simpatico il Sig. Franco alla reception!

The room & the bed(single) were incredibly small. I'd never stayed in such a small room before. With this price the quality of this hotel is not good enough. The hotel reception also forgot to return my ID when I did check-out, so I had to go back again to pick it up. No apology from them ! I would never stay in this hotel again.

All was acceptable

This was a excellent hotel for the money the breakfast was amazing the best we ever had in Italy .Although it was close to the station we felt safe walking back at night .it could be noisy at night if the windows were open but we were staying in a city.

The hotel was very nice and close to the train station. We were able to walk into the main part of town with no problem. The breakfast was the best we had in Italy, with more variety and selections of food.Our only complaint was the very small room. We barely had room to walk on either side of the bed.We would stay here again.

An excellent 3-star hotel within walking distance to the railroad station. The rooms are spacious with excellent bathroom facilities. Highly recommended!

-first time at hotel -good location, near train station -excellent breakfast - best one -friendly and helpful staff -clean and quiet -caters to businness, recreational travellers -great place to stay - use as a starting point to Venice,,,surrounding cities great value

Excellent hotel, comfortable room and good breakfast selection. Less than 5mins walk to the train station and approx 15mins to the centre, the location is ideal.

Very clean, close to the railway station. The centre is 10 minutes' walk, thougn ok because all the way is under cover. The staff was very friendly and welcoming.

I really liked the hotel. The rooms were nice and clean and the hotel was just a short walk from the center and close to the train station. And the breakfastbuffé was perfect!

This hotel provides excellent value for money. A block away from the railway station, but without any noise from it. Being across the remains of the old city wall it's within 5-10 minutes walk to the main attractions of the city. Spotlessly clean. As European hotel rooms go, quite spacious, with a large, well-equipped bathroom. A pleasant breakfast room with a good selection of breakfast foods. We found the staff friendly and knowledeable. All in all we recommend this hotel highly.

The front desk clerk who checked me in was extremely friendly and helpful. Everything about my stay was extremely satisfactory ... except. my room (otherwise immaculate) reeked of cigarette smoke, and the hotel could use new carpeting.

Millennhotel has a convenient location--walking distance from the train station, shopping, tourist sites, and restaurants. Breakfast was very nice and generous, and that is important to me. The front desk was most helpful to me in solving a certain little problem.

Our stay was near perfect, excellent quality of room and breakfast, way above what one ordinarily expects from a three star hotel. The only two minor shortcomings were the garage, which had direct access to the premises but was not operated by the hotel and cost 16 Euros a day and the fact that at first the bill amounted to 200 Euros more (for three nights!) than prearranged via email. It turned out that it was a mistake by either the receptionist on duty or the one who had confirmed my booking. In the end I only had to pay what the email said was due, but it was a minor shock right away and some hassle on our last morning to get things sorted out.

I know I booked a single room, but what a small room it was!!! When I asked Reception for another pillow (I only had one very flat pillow), I was told no! I had to use my towel to prop up my very flat pillow! The breakfast was quite good - although I had to find someone to ask for a coffee! The hotel was quite central and close to the station.

This is a super hotel that feels quite luxurious but without the cost. It is excellently located, very close to the train station and only a 20min stroll into the central square. The room was lovely and clean with a massive bathroom. The staff were a little unhelpful and we had to change rooms at the start because they gave us two beds pushed together but they were happy to change. The breakfast buffet was one of the best we have experienced when travelling europe and a great way to start your day in this fab city.

Great price for such a nice hotel. The location is very convenient (a block from the train station), which was PERFECT for me and my heavy luggage. (They even have a lift bigger than any I've seen in Italy!) It's not the most 'happening' part of town, but the bus stop is close enough to take you anywhere you need to go. The staff was friendly, chatty and helpful. They even helped translate to my taxi driver when I left. My only complaint is the internet access--you can get wireless in your room but it's through a third party and quite pricy. The breakfast buffet was great--lots of variety, good cappucinos and a nice atmosphere. Overall, staying at the Millenhotel was a great way to start my year in Bologna. When I have friends come to town, this is the first and only place I'll recommend.

Great hotel, really clean, nice room with contemporary design. Large bathroom. Most importantly...GREAT BREAKFAST! We loved this hotel and we highly recommend it!

Conditioned air not working.Room very hot.Being window open much noise in.

An excellent choice for a 3-star hotel in the neighborhood of the central train station in Rome. A very good balance of price and quality, excellent breakfast buffet.

This hotel, although 3* was of very high quality, better than many 4* hotels in which I have stayed. The buffet breakfast was sensational, by far the best cold buffet I have ever experienced in Europe. Excellent value for money and highly recommended.

Ottima struttura, ben curata e pulita. Camera abbastanza spaziosa, servizi buoni. Personale competente e gentile. Posizione strategica.

The Millenium Hotel seems to be a new hotel, situated in a not too busy street. The hotel is conveniently located very close to the railway station where I arrived from the airport. The surrounding area is - as nearly always around railway stations - not overwhelming but I did not encounter any annoyances. The city center and a park is in walking distance. The room was spacious the bathroom also and excellently clean. For breakfast there is buffet with a wide variety of choices. Hotel prices seem to be higher in Bologna than in other Italian cities but I was completely satisfied with what I got for my money.

Pulito, tranquillo, vicino alla stazione ferroviaria e al centro. Offre un buon rapporto qualità prezzo

Other than room size, small for two people, the room amenities were nice. Breakfast buffet was excellent. Staff were pleasant and helpful.

I felt very safe, the bathroom vas very good and the towels vhere awsome. But the best thing var the brekfast buffe, wow! I travel a lot and I found the personal very helpful and polite.

Nice room. Staff helpful with generally good English. Good variety for breakfast. 15 min walk from centre of town and close to rental cars. One lift inadequate for 7 floors. air conditioning strugged, but noisey if opened window

Personnel d'accueil à l'écoute minimale, situation heureusement bien compensée par des locaux modernes et très agréables. Vis-à-vis du prix payé, bien moindre grâce au site "Venere.com", le buffet proposé au petit-déjeûner est imbattable pour un 3 étoiles italien. Beaucoup de choix et de l'abondance.

It was the best hotel from all three-stars in which I stopped in Italy in different cities.. Also I liked a breakfast and very benevolent barman from Ukraine

Great hotel, very close to the railway station and a 10-minute walk to the very center of the old town. Great breakfast with a wide choice of almost everything. Generally great quality of service, clean and modern rooms, just perfect.

This was a business class hotel with a phenomenal breakfast and bathroom at a budget travel price. I wish I had stayed there longer.

Nice

A very convenient price for a good quality three-stars hotel, with surprisingly equipped rooms (internet connection for your laptop, satellite TV, comfortable bathroom with an efficient hairdryer, a large shower cubicle, soft and fluffy towels and a good set of toiletries). In every floor there is a large bowl full of ripe and fragrant apples for the guests, and the breakfast buffet is really first quality. This recently opened (2002) hotel is at walking distance from the central railway station, and it is a pity it is located in a wrongly frequented street, but this is the only thing that works against the surprisingly comfortable accommodation.

Sleep disrupted by the noisy operation of refuse collection at 0230hrs! Well appointed but small room. Very good buffet breakfast. Very handy for the rail station.

Near from the central station. Very convenient using a card-key. Not traditional, american style.

It was absolutely great! Very close to the main railway station, so very convenient for everyone coming to Bologna, even for the first time - as it is very easy to find. The room was fantastic, and the only criticism I could level at it was that the heating was too high, especially in the (wonderful) bathroom. The choice at breakfast was one of the best I've ever seen, in Italy and elsewhere. All in all, very highly recommended to all visitors to Bologna.

Excellent location for the railway station. Town centre easy walking distance. Reception staff friendly and welcoming. Would have liked a bar that was open in the evening. The room was excellent and we enjoyed our stay very much. We hope to return to Bologna and use the Millen Hotel again.

The best hotel breakfasts we had in the whole of Italy

This hotel was very good and I can definitely recommended it. The location close to the railway station is very convenient if travelling by train. Though it is a bit of a walk to reach the actual center of the city. The breakfast was one of the best I have ever been served in Italy.

This nice, clean property is within a short, easy walk of the central train station (even toting luggage for family of three!). We used it this trip as an overnight prior to a very early AM flight from Bologna to Frankfurt. We took the Eurostar from Firenze mid-evening in leisurely fashion, walked to the Millenium, had a good night's sleep, and hotel arranged an early taxi for us the next morning to the airport. Because of the early departure, we unfortunately did not have the opportunity to try the breakfast (sigh), but maybe next trip. We will definitely stay here again. PS-- for those familiar with the city, this hotel is located at the former site of the OLD Hotel Europa. The new Europa is about 2 blocks away. Have not tried that one yet.

Overall, our stay at the Millennium was wonderful. We might have preferred to be closer to the historic center (the Millennium is a good 15-20 minute walk), but the hotel itself is bright, modern, and offers by far the best breakfast we had on our 10-day stay in Italy! Staff was knowledgable and courteous, and the hotel is only 1 1/2 blocks from the train station (a fact that concerned us at first, but ended up being a great convenience). Would recommend Millennium, as long as you're not looking for charm and quaintness -- this is definitely a modern hotel that seems to cater to the business traveler more than the tourist.

Lovely room a little small service great,maybe emphasis how close hotel is to station

Expensive due to the realisation of Bologna's Construction Fair Saie Due,it's a 3*hotel. There were a few crumbles on the room floor and the employee forgot to empty the garbage basket of the bathroom,they didn't put new bottles of shampoo and bath gel even they were over!However the hotel was fully redecorated (not long ago,you can see)with great taste and design.It's just a pity that there's no bar and the surrounding area doesn't offer a lot.

The staff was extremely helpful above what they needed to be. Location is great and in easy walking distance of most sites that I wanted to see or places to eat. Complementary breakfast was one of the best that I had during my visit ti northern Italy! Highly recommended
