Hotel Bologna - Pisa

A double room on the first floor. Very good hotel convenient for all sights. Excellent Sardinian restaurant opposite, owned by chef. Try it.

Excellent hotel. Our room was furnished to a high standard and very comfortable living up to its 4* rating. Breakfast choice was very good though the seating arrangement in the breakfast room was somewhat cramped.

The hotel is in a very central location in Pisa and is a very good quality/clean hotel. The staff were very friendly and informative The free extras of transfers to and from the airport/ train station, fresh daily homemade cakes and Taste of Tuscany evenings were greatly appreciated. The selection of food at breakfast was good too and I particularly liked the murals throughout the hotel.

Stayed in a newly refurbished room at the front which was very nice. Hotel on a main side street so you could hear traffic. Breakfast good, nibbles on an evening at 7.00 pm a nice touch. Some fantastic restaurants recommended by staff who were friendly and helpful. Walking distance to leaning tower of pisa etc. Free shuttle to airport/train station excellent. Only downside were the lifts being refurbished so had to use the stairs but this did not affect our holiday.

Everything went well

Our second stay at the Hotel Bologna. We prefer to be that side of the river, it's less touristy and close to the railway station. The Hotel shuttle service was very useful.Breakfast was excellent with a wide choice of hot and cold food. Free mineral water in the mini bar saved us many trips to the supermarket. Would stay again if we returned to Pisa.

We were very pleased with our room, but as you would expect with a city hotel, some of the rooms did not have exceptional views. The complimentary shampoos, etc and the coffee/tea making facilities in the rooms were a nice touch. The bed was perfect, the mini bar prices not too exorbitant and the hotel staff were very attentive.

We loved this hotel! We stayed in the quadruple room which had a seperate room connected to ours for the children with twin beds in. The water in the room was free as was the homemade cake and water in the reception area we could let the children have. They loved this!! The quality of the room was high....very clean and english tv too!!! Breakfast was a wide range of foods....staff all spoke english and were very nice. Definately a four star experience. Great location...just a short walk away from everything!! Loved Bologna...loved the hotel....

Reception staff were excellent. Breakfast very good, including gluten free. We could hear noise from the next room which could have turned into a problem (but did not).

Close to the tower,nice room, helpful staff, really useful shuttle service- otherwise would have been hard to find. Excellent breakfast friendly staff,very busy, had to wait for a spot.

As often in Italy the room is the size of a bathroom

Stayed one night waiting for flight the next day. All staff very helpful, patient, competent and spoke good english. Location in a small back street was a little awkward to get to by car (best to approach from the road alongside the river). Inside the hotel was very clean, bright and with fittings being of a good quality and well maintained. Its central location is ideal for visiting the city and the free shuttle bus to and from the airport is very useful. Recommended.

The Hotel was lovely but was extremely difficult to find. They cannot provide any GPS co-ordinates and that combined with several sets of roadworks made it extremely difficult to find. it took us over one hour to find it! the only other comment would be that for the price, the bathroom was extremely small - the smallest I have ever seen in a hotel - beautifully clean though which in some way made up for the lack of space. Our room was at the back of the hotel and was quite noisey thoughout the night.

Excellent very clean

I am a single traveller and got room at a seize of a shoebox.Breakfast was good, the staff spoke good english.They gave good information.The shuttle service is superb.I think this is a very good B&B, not a hotel.

Nice hotel. Good location, 10 mins walk from station and 10 mins walk to the sights and the centre of town. Good amenities but single room was a bit small and dark.

Recommended for your stay in Pisa. Very generous buffet breakfast (including freshly made fruit salad, not so common in many others hotels). Convenient location in walking distance (20 min max) from Tower, useful private parking. I would suggest to ask for a room not facing the road. Hotel is basically in a pedestrian area, but the buses are very frequent in daytime (a nice facility indeed) and could result somehow noisy despite the excellent work of acoustic insulation by hotel management.

The staff was friendly and helpful. We each received free slippers. The breakfast buffet was wonderful.

Good value, central hotel. Nothing to find fault with: perhaps the bathroom radiator needed painting! It is well-located, with a handful of good reasonably-priced restaurants nearby. Breakfast was excellent. Room was clean at all times and well serviced. Staff were all fine. Free internet was a bonus. Main train and bus station only 10 mins walk.

The hotel's public areas are well appointed, while the breakfast area has impressive murals. Bedrooms, although small, are well decorated. The property is conveniently situated near the river Arno, and within walking distance of the Central station.

Brief stay in Pisa made excellent by hotel . Very central - can walk everywhere - local restaurant suggested by hotel superb. Rooms and services all excellent . Only criticism was the take away breakfast - we left very early and were offered a take away but it was not good. Not really important and certainly did not spoil our lovely visit

Had a lovely time here

As I remember, I stayed at room 104, a double room with a window facing the yard. The room is okay but it will be much better if they add a fan in the bathroom. The window in the bathroom is very small and high, near the ceiling, and was closed tightly. I tried to open it by standing on the chair, but it's too high. So, once you use the toilet, it will be quite smelly in next one hour.

We only stayed for 1 night, but it was a very positive experience for us. The service was efficient, the reception was welcoming and helpful, the room was spacious and spotless, and the decor in the public rooms was fantastic. We had advised of an early arrival (11 a.m.), and our room was available at that time. Our room faced the street, so there was a bit of noise in the night, but nothing to complain about. There was a wide choice of food and drink at breakfast, and the quality was excellent. We paid 139 euros, including breakfast, which to us represented very good value for money. We can recommend the restaurant Il Campano at Via Cavalca.

We did not feel this hotel matched up to it's 4 star rating on staff professionalism or quality of room.The one area where this hotel excelled, was in the quality of breakfast provided.

Difficult to find, but worth finding.

Exceeded expectations.Wr recommend la buca restaurant nearby

This was about a 15 minute walk to the Leaning Tower but great fun. This hotel is close to the bridge and restaurants. Hotel staff friendly, room clean and very good value for the cost. Great little hotel, just a few blocks from train station.

I stayed for one night at the beginning and end of a Painting holiday in Barga Easily accesible and near lovely centre ,river and accessible to Le Torre and Campus of Miracles Lovely comfortable room and breakfast excellent Facility to leave luggage was VERY welcome Pick up and airport drop off etc was welcome and friendly The second room was even more lovely than the first Syaff friendly and welcoming

Nice hotel.

The room was clean, close to the Leaning Towner, the train station, restaurants..etc. Their staff were friendly enough although I did not like the fact that they changed the behavior based on who you are.. (solo v.s. family ..As I was a solo travellor, I did not receive more information than a family travellor who checked in just before me. I had to ask and ask to obtain the same information.. )

Very expensive for a very poor hotel. I have never had to pay for service on top of the price of drinks. This is possibly the worse value hotel I have ever stayed in.

Excellent hotel though took us some time to find as in the back streets . Staff really helpful and rooms clean . People with diffiulty walking would probably find hotel too far away from tower etc , but it was a good stop off for us on our way back home.

Ok

The room was in a building not on the main street so it was very quiet. Decoration is nice, internet access works fine; for breakfast ask for italian coffee !

Reat locatio about 15-20 minutes walk sout of the tower, quiet enough street although the hotel looked a little out of place amongst the building works around

Our Quadruple room had Two Bathrooms, The room was very spacious, extremely clean, with a large Widescreen TV, with comfortable beds & nice details like the provided sleepers. The Hotel walls decoration was itself a work of Art. The Breakfast was outstanding, with both hot & cold items, pleasing both vegan and not vegan guests( There was even soy milk!!)Highly Recommended!!!

One of our best souvenir in Italia !!

Excellent hotel in a very quite location. Most rooms (I believe) face inwards to a central courtyard which further reduces any external noise. Very close location to the main shopping street. A short walk to the station. A pleasant 15 min walk to the leaning tower. All very easy to navigate around. Room was very pleasant, although with a strong cigarette smell. Service was polite and efficient. Excellent and comprehensive breakfast service. Highly recommended.

The staff were friendly and helpful

Very good service from the staff, very good breakfast,and well kept rooms.

This was a great hotel for the price. The room size was good, the location is about a 10 minute walk to the tower & other sites. Breakfast was very good. Great dinner recommendations. Had a free hour of internet each day (wireless too). Overall, a great value for the money - and I will be taking my family to this hotel again next year on vacation.

The room was very beautiful (large, beautiful volume, design and decor) and the staff is professional. All PISE monuments and sites may be reached by walking few minutes.

A very nice hotel, south of the Arno but very close and within easy strolling distance of the Leaning Tower. The room wasn't all that big but the bathroom was huge and had everything. The breakfast was absolutely first class....couldn't be faulted. I would definitely recommend this hotel.

We stayed in a four people room and the room was really spacious and clean, although the bathroom was very tiny the hotel is well located to visit the city, not far from the turists sites but is not noisy at all the breakfast provided was great as well as services (internet,...)

It's a very nice 4* hotel. Pisa is a lovely city to walk around and the location of the hotel is ideal.

The single room which I got was strikingly small but clean and tidy. The bathroom was equipped very well and was clean and comfortable. The only thing which annoyed me was that I expected a snack bar in the hotel which was not true and I referred to them at night to get something but they just sent me to a restaurant nearby which did not have a free table and had to go far away to get something!

We were a family with 2 childs, and I recomend this hotel for families, the services and facilities offered was excellent.

L'hotel est bien placé dans la ville. Les chambres sont calmes et spacieuses. De nombreux services sont proposés (navette pour l'aéroport, petit-déjeuner à emporter).

For tourism, to visit Cinque Terre National Park and other places of Liguria. I staey in Pisa because there is a direct flight from Barcelona to Pisa. I was travelling alone.

We stayed in single rooms - they are small but more than adequate considering you'll be spending your day at the Tower and/or shopping and/or visiting other towns in the vicinity. They were clean, bright, fresh. I had no complaints whatever.

I couldn`t believe it. It was perfect, I was sorry, that I didn`t book this hotel for my whole stay in Italy. thank you and keep on beeing good.

Nous sommes restés une nuit à l'hôtel Bologna. l'ensemble des prestations est de très bonne qualité. le seul bémol à noter est la présence d'une mini fenêtre dans la chambre ce qui la rend bien sombre. Assurément, nous y retournerons et vous recommandons cet établissement. cdt

This was a lovely hotel. The staff was great and very accomodating. The hotel was clean. Breakfast was terrific. By far, the best hotel we stayed at during our 2 week stay in Italy!

Hallo! Wir (5 erwachsene Personen - Familie) haben vorab über Venere gebucht. Durch die Erweiterung unserer kleinen Gruppe war die kurzfristige Umwandlung eines der Einzelzimmers in ein Doppelzimmer kein Problem dh stornieren und nochmals buchen war nicht erforderlich! Hut ab! Zimmer sind zwar nicht besonders gross (ALTBAU), aber sehr sauber und einem 4*Hotel entsprechend, Entree und sonstige allgemeinen Räumlichkeiten sind sehr schön und liebevoll gestaltet! Frühstücksbuffett ist sehr umfangreich (Eier, Müsli, und und)! Einen Aperitiv auf der Terrasse einzunehmen ist auf jedenfall empfehlenswert! Das Hotel liegt zwar nicht direkt im historisch interessanten Teil Pisas (Schiefer Turm), aber es ist binnen 10-15 min Gehzeit leicht zu erreichen! Die Corso Italia, eine empfehlenswerte Einkaufsstrasse, ist nur 2 min entfernt. Wir waren SEHR zufrieden und können das Hotel nur weiterempfehlen!

Very nice hotel in walking distance from the train station and the Pisa leaning tower, spacious and clean room, friendly and competent staff, good breakfast. I would definitely stay again.

A brief but enjoyable stay in the Bologna. Hotel staff were very friendly and helpful and room was very comfortable. Excellent location for the sights, station and airport.

Nice hotel. Clean and comfortable.

Great for overnight stay in Pisa. Wouldn't fancy it for more than one night. Disappointed with room position, very small dark not much natural light. Although bathroom large bright and airy but overlooked another room at the hotel. Staff were helpful with tourism advice and their airport shuttle was a good service.

For the price paid on Venere it's a very good value hotel nice rooms and friendly staff .

Nice hotel with helpful staff. Convenient to railway station. Room was a bit narrow. Coffe from the buffet breakfast was aweful but they do provide a fresh made coffee selection if you ask a member of staff.

Located a 15 minute walk from the tower on the south side of the river in a quiet street good hotel for a short stay

The hotel staff and breakfast were great. The hotel was clean and in a safe area. The location is an easy walk from the central station if you are not walking with large bags or in July heat. A bus line runs in front of the hotel if needed but a cab would be no more than a 1 minute ride. A nice lounge is located across the street and most of the night life which is across the river. The Pisa Tower is very walkable from this location.

Don't be put off by the walk from the Station. The back road is not pretty, although has only light traffic. The hotel is in a very convenient position however, and close to shopping, eating and the bridges across the river to access the tower etc. The hotel must be the best value for money stay we have experienced in Italy. The quad room was perfect for 2 + 2 teens, and the room was immaculate and well equipped. The bathroom is on the small side but felt brand new. The hotel closes every January for refurbishment, and they really do take a lot of pride in presentation. There is a very nice and secluded elevated patio area for drinks and snacks etc. Very welcome after a long day on your feet. After paying Florence prices, everything seems so reasonable! Great value, and really A1 staff.

We booked a family room for my husband, me and our 2 daughter (17 and 21) and received 2 adjoining double rooms, each with its own bathroom. Excellent value for money and excellent location to see the main attractions in Pisa.

Recommended restaurant near the hotel: La Pergoletta, via delle Belle Torri 40

The hotel is redone recently and well-appointed. It is about a 15-20 minute stroll to the Leaning Tower.

I would recommend this hotel as location was very central & the hotel itself it very nice. Bathrooms are slightly small but other than that all was nice.

The staff were pleasant and efficient. We had the room directly behind the lift so had noise from the lift and people using the lift and stairs. Room was very cold, radiators in the bedroom and bathroom were always cold. Heater in air conditioning unit not powerful enough to heat the room effectivly.

Lovely hotel within walking distance of leaning tower. Excellent breakfast, lots of choice in a lovely breakfast room painted with frescoes of the riverside buidings. Hotel runs airport shuttle which was very good.

Short distance to everything!

Great property with an excellent staff who were friendly and helpful. I expected the property to be closer to the Leaning Tower (it's about a 20 min walk across the River) but it was a 2 minute walk to other sites (shopping and resteraunts) Take a taxi to the hotel from the airport; it's only 10 minutes - we were 4 (family) and the fare was 10 euros - the hotel wanted 20 euros (5 euro per person)

First room we were given was not up to standard but they quickly transfered us to a better room which was excellent.

We did not enjoy our stay at this hotel. The walls were very thin and you could hear the noises from adjoining rooms as well as the ones above. Consequently we had to endure a sleepless night. The bathroom was tiny with a folding door that was hard to use. The hotel is near the main streets but the location does not inspire confidence. In summary I would not recommend this hotel.

We really enjoyed our stay at Hotel Bologna. On arrival the staff were very friendly and helpful. The hotel was very clean and the rooms were spacious. The location of the hotel was good however, it is not as short a walk from the hotel as the website made out. It is a good ten to fifteen minutes walk to the hotel from the train station. Other than that, I would highly recommend this hotel to everyone as it has a good location whilst being in a quiet street. The staff were exceptional and the breakfast was good to.

The air conditioning didn't seem to be operating properly and the room was very hot. There was a lot of noise, but it was hard to establish where this was coming from. At times it seemed to be from upstairs and later in the night, from outside (I think the kitchen was close to the room). Overall, the room was very clean and the hotel staff were very friendly.

We were in a room at the rear & there was constant noise from a bakery which abutted the property & went on all night.As well as the noise it made the room very hot.The management pleaded ignorance which was ridiculous. Parking was very tight & difficult to get the car out in the morning.

I have been at Pisa for the second time and I chose The Hotel Bologna again. It has a good location (not far from the city centre and from the train station)and you can easily walk to the main interesting points.

Nice hotel, central, difficult to find due to road works when we arrived.my only complaint is the car parking!you have to leave your car key at the reception when we came back to the car to leave, it was parked so close to some steel stairs i could not get in it.The ultra slim receptionist commented on the way the car had been left and appologised.My concern is insurance and did i sign a disclaimer when checking in.

Il personale è molto disponibile, è un buon albergo. Ci tornerei volentieri.

Stayed 2 nights at the Bologna. Good location for visiting Leaning Tower/restaurants and bars/train station for day trip to Florence. (Well worth a visit.) Airport can easily be reached by local bus - cheap and frequent. Shops and restaurants close to the hotel. Found some of the restaurants near to the Tower added a 15% service charge to the bill regardless of whether or not worth it. Found much better restaurants in the winding streets slightly away from main tourist area.

A very comfortable, pleasant, convenient hotel with helpful non-intrusive, professional employees. I particularly appreciated the tea and coffee making facilities, not something you find everywhere in Italy.

We were very pleased with accomodations. I reserved a triple and was given a mini suite with separate bedroom & bath for older child who was traveling with us. Breakfast was the best in all travel in Italy.

Very nice hotel. South of river convenient for train and airport. Very nice room, very welcoming reception. Would stay again.

Large apartments, clean and nicely furnished.

The staff at the Hotel Bologna are particularly welcoming and helpful. The hotel is in a wonderfully convenient but also quiet location. I would be happy to recommend this hotel to travellers to Pisa.

My second stay at Bologna and both times were well worth the price. Good location, very helpful staff, modern, comfortable. Good breakfast.

Quite a few staff off sick when we were staying there so service was very hit and miss. The bar was non-existent as no-one on duty had any bar experience. No service to the terrace which meant no-one really used it.

We would like to thank the staff for making our stay very memorable espesially as it was our 26th wedding anniversary. they chose a lovely restaurant for us to have a special meal on our anniversary. the only thing that would make staying at the bologne would be a swimming pool to relax in after a hard days sightseeing. the staff at the hotel could not do enough for us. the were very helpful and curtious.

This hotel located only 10min step from Pisa central station and closed to main street. also good position for sightseein and shopping. I will stay when I visit to Pisa again.

It was a pleasant surprise to find such an excellent hotel on arrival. The place was clean and the staff first class. They took time to recommend good restaurants and sites to visit and had a most professional and helpful approach. I would recommend this hotel to anyone for a short or longer stay

Fabulous, 2nd time we have stayed at this hotel and the general location incredible for those wanting to explore not only Pisa but the surrounding areas' i.e. Florence, Lucca etc. Dominic and John who look after the hotel in the evenings really are fab. No evenings meals but can cater for substantial snacks in their small tuscan kitchen. I have taken my mother and mother-in-law together to explore this unique area on the basis I have a beautiful hotel offering triple and quadruple rooms. The quadruple room was like having seperate bedrooms - fantastic. Breakfast wonderful - everything you need and self service so you can keep going back for seconds! I even got slippers complimentary, a must for the long hours sight seeing. Hotel has fantastic location just a slight stroll over the bridge into cosmopolitan Pisa. Elderly becareful pavements are unruly - historic charm. My Mum is 70 and coped as she is able bodied.

The hotel was one of the best on this visit we even had slippers and the breakfast was excellent, we will for sure stay again on our next visit, no complaints, you get what you pay for.

Excellent surprise because we had a familial room, more spacious than a double room. But we did not know the parking is not free : 20€ for 24hours. But really good hostel only at 500meters of the tower. But we don't see the tower from the terrace of the hotel (no like on the pictures!). To be recommended!

This was the best value hotel of our 29 days of travel in Italy and Corsica, including many four and five star accommodations. The desk staff was superb, even to offering a choice of rooms on check-in.

I stayed one night at Hotel Bologna for a business trip. The hotel looks great, and is wonderfully located right in the city center of Pisa. I was however very much disappointed with the room I got: the room was in the building at the back of the hotel, and was TINY! There was barely any space between the small 1-person bed, the tiny desk, and the bathroom. There was a small window but it was too high to be able to see much through it. My room looked more like one from a 2-star hotel than a 4-star hotel. The room was also very noisy, it is apparently located near an all-night kitchen or something like that. I might go back to hotel Bologna, but in that case I would insist to get a room in the main building.

I was very impressed with the Hotel Bologna. The standards of cleanliness of the rooms, the breakfast and the helpfulness of the staff were all excellent. I would definitely stay here again.

Very clean convenient location, nice and helpful personal. thats all you look for

Staff very helpful. Location was great, 15 minute walk to Leaning Tower. Bus across street to railway station and airport for just 1 euro. Family room was huge. Breakfast was okay. Good price for family room in expensive country. Negative was noise from room above because of wood floors.

OK, so I have never stayed in a 4 star hotel before but as this one seemed to have a good offeron I decided to book. Was very pleased with the room and the general service, only minor point was that no-one was on the front desk when we arrived. Hotel is a little out of the way down a small street but they do offer pickup from the station for a small fee. But your on holiday, walk and explore the area.
