Hotel Bologna - Pisa

8.9

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

8.9

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.

8.9

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.

8.8

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.

8.5

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,...)

9.8

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

7.0

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!

8.0

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

8.7

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).

8.7

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.

8.4

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.

8.1

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

9.2

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.

9.7

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!

8.4

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!

9.9

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.

7.2

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.

9.1

Nice hotel. Clean and comfortable.

7.5

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.

9.8

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

8.4

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.

9.0

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

9.9

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.

9.7

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.

9.9

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.

9.7

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

9.5

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

8.0

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.

7.2

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.

9.9

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.

7.0

Short distance to everything!

8.6

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)

8.5

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

2.7

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.

7.3

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.

9.4

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.

3.8

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.

8.3

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.

6.9

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.

8.2

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

9.9

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.

9.9

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.

10

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.

9.5

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

9.2

Large apartments, clean and nicely furnished.

9.1

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.

9.8

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

7.5

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.

9.1

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.

7.9

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.

8.9

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

9.2

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.

10

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.

8.8

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!

9.2

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.

4.3

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.

8.8

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.

8.5

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

7.4

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.

8.9

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.

7.4

Our room had an interesting forest theme mural on the walls. The location of the hotel is good, close to the main tourist site and still far enough away from the questionable characters at the station. Good for our one night stay.

9.9

Very nice room with a large bathroom. The breakfast area was nicely done with a good selection. The hotel shuttle was great for going to the Tower and the train station.

8.5

Just Careful with parking price not included / very good hotel close to Pisa monuments.

8.3

Everything was OK except one thing. Temperature inside the hotel was too low in an area where our friends, a couple, were located. The second night the employees had to change them to another room. Temperature was also too low in the bathrooms. Some revision should be done in the heating system. All the rest was perfect.

9.1

Great quality for the price I paid (it's off-season).

9.7

Great flat screen TV, shopping close and the Leaning Tower was 20 min walk from the hotel

6.0

We were disappointed to be given rooms in a building behind the main hotel. There was a problem with noise from the air condition system or water. They did try to sort it out and responded to our concern but were not entirely successful. The receptionist was extremely helpful with booking a restaurant for New Years Eve and we had a great time.

8.1

Good quality/price ratio (with the rate rebated in venere; I got there through www.hotelbestbooking.com, an excellent site by the way). The assigned room was good only for a one-night stay: the windows was on an internal court. Ask for an external room. Very good breakfast and overall professional staff. If you need a pizza not far from the hotel try the "Vecchio Dado" on the Lungarno: right price and good!

8.6

Very good in all of the aspects. Very kind people. Near from the city center and the railway station.

8.7

A super deal for folks on the Euro...

9.8

Excellent hotel for our one night stay, close to all the sights and the main shopping street, friendly staff, clean and modern decor, excellent breakfast, lovely room and beautiful bathroom, only negative comment was that our room overlooked a ventilation shaft so with no outlook was a bit claustrophobic but for a short stay was OK Hotel shuttle to the airport cost 12 euros for 2 people, journey only took 5 minutes but was worth the cost to be hassle free We had walked to the hotel from the railway station and that took 10 minutes, was easy to get to

9.4

Good hotel. Staff was friendly. Rooms were clean and quiet. It is 1Km from the train station (if you arrive during the day, it is perfectly possible to reach it on foot). It is also near Pisa mains attractions (if you are not lazy, you can walk to the Pending Tower and the Catedral on foot also). Breakfast was ok, bathrooms were ok. Moreover, the hotel provided internet (paid) on the lobby. The maps provided in the hotel had a poor quality (in fact, the map was a bad-quality xerox). Be also careful with the map provided in the hotel website. There are a lot of streets missing, what makes a little difficult to find the hotel when your are walking from the station.

6.3

adequate hotel, good location, nothing memorable but no complaints

7.4

A good, comfortable hotel, but the single room was a little small. Well located for visiting Pisa

8.4

Overall our stay was great. On arrival at the airport we rang the hotel and they immediately sent a vehicle to pick us up. On arrival the reception staff were very efficient and were extremely helpful for the whole of our stay. They were also very knowledgable about the area, transport, restaurants etc. The rooms were very nice, spotlessly clean and the hotel was in a convenient location for local sights and transportation. Breakfast was very nice, continental, with cold meat and cheeses, bread, cakes, juices and coffee but a really good selection. Just two minor gripes. I booked one single and one double room for two nights. The single room was fine but the double room smelt of cigarette smoke despite requesting a non smoking room. This was not a great problem, just a bit unpleasant. The smell was only slight and more noticeable when first entering the room. Secondly on the last morning of our stay we were woken up early by a rather noisy neighbour. To be fair to him I think the noise was coming through the locked interconnecting door between the rooms. We could hear him having a shower, moving around the room and talking rather loudly into his mobile phone. In fact it sounded as if he was in the same room with us. Anyway despite this, I would not hesitate to recommend this hotel and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

10

Good location, we will be back!!!

8.6

el hotel esta muy muy bien, no es muy grande pero es muy acogedor, el buffet del almuerzo esta bien i el trato ofrecido excelente, habitaciones un poco pequeñas pero muy limpias i acogedoras, esta relativamente en el centro turistico en una calle muy tranquila i silenciosa. volveria a visitarlo.

8.8

We stayed only one night, but it was REALLY magical. The hotel itself is amazing. Our room had very high ceiling and was very spacious. It was an old style luxurious place. Breakfast was really good and staff were very helpful. The location is in a narrow street but 5 minutes from shopping area. It is located around 25 minutes walk to the leaning tower. I would definitely recommend you this hotel.

9.0

The hotel is very well located for the station, sights and restaurants.

9.0

Excellant hotel in good location near main shopping street and only a 15 minute walk to the Leaning Tower. Small bathroom but with all facilities. Breakfast was excellant. Staff very helpful and obliging

9.1

A very nice, quality hotel with an excellent breakfast and very helpful staff. I was disappointed with the room in the respect that it was smaller than the one on the website that I'd asked for and it was noisy from the adjacent lift. The web info gave the impression that the courtesy bus was free but it wasn't. It was 12 euros from the train station and 16 euros to the airport. It was a very comfortable service though. Overall it was a very good, clean, very well presented and friendly hotel. I would not hesitate to return or recommend it.

9.7

We had a very comfortable and pleasant time staying at Hotel Bologna. We had 2 kids with us and so booked a quad. The room was very spacious for our boys to play. The front desk staff were very helpful and friendly. There is a great Italian restaurant/pizzeria by the hotel - the best pasta in the world.

9.0

Das Hotel war von der Lage, der Gastfreundschaft, der Qualität der Zimmer und des reichhaltigen Frühstücks sehr erfreulich. Wir würden jederzeit wiederkommen und können das Hotel Bologna, besonders für eine Stadtbesuch von Pisa sehr empfehlen

8.5

A comfortable, clean, modern(ised) hotel in a convenient, if slightly seedy, location. Good breakfast, although the constant radio music was annoying (especially when it was Virgin Radio blasting out - not my idea of relaxing breakfast music). Good hotel shuttle service to airport.

8.6

Great location, within walking distance of the train station. Shuttle bus provided to the airport for a minimal fee. Lovely hotel hidden away in the streets of Pisa. Quiet but great place to stay. Not far to get to all of the main sights.

9.0

Slight mix up on the first night but sorted out to our satisfaction. Collected at airport by hotel. Recommend you do the same. Good value and no hassle. Very very good staff and good location to tour from. Great breakfast. Would definetely stay here again. An all round winner.

9.6

sUPERB HOTEL IN QUIET AREA BY RIVER. ONLY 10 MINUTES STROLL INTO TOURIST AREA. PLENTY OF SHOPS WITHIN MINUTES OF HOTEL. WELCOMING STAFF VERY HELPFUL ESOECIALLY THE TWO MEN ON RECEPTION AND BAR. HOTEL HAS OWN TAXI. IT ALSO HAS SOME VERY NICE ROOMS OVERLOOKING THE CAR PARK ENTRANCE. I WOULD NOT HESITATE TO STAY AGAIN, PROBABLY ASK FOR A DOUBLE ROOM RATHER THAN ONE WITH TWO SINGLE BEDS.

9.3

The staff were excellent, very friendly and eager to point out the sights etc. There is building work being done nearby, but is not a problem. There is a busy road outside, which might be a problem for families with young children. overall a great place to stay with great breakfast and own shuttle to the airport 10 minutes away, which I will recommend to friends.

7.7

We were four friends in our trip to Florence, but we stayed one day in Pisa. We booked a room in Bologna hotel and we had a nice surprise. Hotel is near the Duomo and its Tower and other monuments like Santa Espina church and St. Paolo in Ripa. The room and bath room were cleaned but a bit small for four people, but other facilities were fantastic. We recommend this hotel if you want to spend a fantastic day in Pisa...

9.3

Excellent hotel, exactly as described on the website. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly. The room was clean, well decorated and quiet. Although breakfast in Italian hotels is usually a limp affair, the breakfast here was excellent; varied and fresh. The only (very slight) drawback is the location, which is not particularly near the major sights. However, if (like us) you are prepared to sacrifice location in order to get a good value room in a lovely hotel, then this is the place for you. All of which said, the hotel is a very short walk from the train station, and the 20-minute walk into the city is a very pleasant one. We would definitely stay here again.

9.8

Excellent hotel - great spacious room for three people but would fit easily four. Very welcoming staff as arrived very late in night. Would definitely return.

9.8

Just got back from our visit and can't rate the hotel highly enough. The transfer from the hotel was great, the staff were exceptional and the hotel and surroundings were brilliant! We'd definitely go back.

8.1

Staff were very helpful and the rooms recently redocorated to a high standard. The hotel is within walking distance (20 minutes) of the main visitor attractions in Pisa and the staff recommended two very good (and reasonable) restaurants. The only downside was the hotel restaurant was not big enough - many people were queing for breakfast.

7.4

There was a homeless shelter a few doors away which had groups of people standing around it, some obviously with drinking problems, which we had to walk past and it made us feel a little nervous.

9.7

We stayed in a quad room, v. spacious, modern, clean bathroom, flatscreen satellite TV, quiet location, 15 mins walk from leaning tower. Very satisfied, would definitely stay here again. Another winner from Venere.

9.9

El hotel está muy bien, muy limpio, habitaciones grandes y bien decoradas, tiene hasta television de plasma. El servicio es muy bueno y en el desayuno te hacen cafe de verdad, no como en otros hoteles que he estado de italia; lo único por encontrarle un pero, es que el zumo no es natural... Pisa no es muy grande, así que dando un paseo se llega a la plaza del duomo, pueden ser unos 20 minutos, y está a 5 minutos de las estacion de tren. Me gustó mucho el hotel.

8.5

A lovely hotel to start our family holiday. Close enough to the centre to walk but far enough away for peace and quiet. If flying in to Pisa do not hire a car until you leave the hotel as you will not need one for the stay here. All you will be doing is paying for a car and parking when the airport is only a short ride away, the hotel offers a collect and drop-off service. The 4 bed family room we had was lovely including a seperate area, though no door, for the children to sleep. Breakfast was enjoyable and plenty. The self service on the coffee was good. However there is limited food and drink available at other times so no louging about the hotel. Would stay at this hotel again.

10

Lovely hotel. I will definitely stay there again and recommend to others. As a single traveller, I get used to paying over the top and having an inferior room. Not this time! I had a beautiful spacious room and bathroom, with lovely furniture. The flat screen TV with some programmes in English was also appreciated. And the breakfast is superb.

9.4

The hotel Bologna is a comfortable and clean hotel between the train station and the river Arno. It was close enought to get our cases to after getting off the train and it was within walking distance of the Leaning Tower and the older part of the town. The triple room had one main part and a side area with the second (single) bed in which allowed for some privacy. The hotel is on a quiet street which was mostly private residences. Shops, bars and restaurants were within easy walking distance. The breakfast buffet was good but a little overcrowded. I would recommend this hotel to others

9.6

This hotel was very nice. The staff were very helpful and gave us an excellent dinner recommendation. The main attractions were easily within walking distance, but we were far enough away not to be affected by the noise. Great common rooms for sitting with comfy furniture. Everything was very well kept.
