    • Breakfast was excellent, except you had no black tea bags?. Bed was great and you had adjoining rooms for the family.
    • Kind and efficient staff.Good breakfast selection of food.Good price/comfort ratio.
    • Perfect stopover after whole day watching Davis Cup at Bologna Fiere. The location of the hotel is about 15-20 minutes drive from Bologna Fiere. Great choice for a mini road trip travelling by car. Parma is about 1 hour driving distance. The check-in was fast thanks to the helpful reception staff. The room size is ideal, not too small and not too spacious, warmed up so well for a good night rest (as for a cold winter night). Bathroom clean and we have everything we need. Breakfast also good. We would return again next year!

    Nice hotel very near to Bologna ! The breakfast was tasteful, the hotel staff is polite and helpful ! The room was big, clean and peaceful ! Recommend it !

    The rooms are clean and spacious, the staff is kind and nice, and they also helped us with suggestions for the rest of the trip. The staff did everything they could to ensure that we stayed in rooms next to each other and even upgraded one of the rooms for the same price. Good breakfast

    I booked at the last minute and they had a room available for a very affordable price

    That is couldn't book 2 nights in a row

    Room was clean.

    The smell of cat urine in the alcove before the breakfast room. The entrance also frequently smelled of cat urine. In order to reach our room, we had to traverse a flight of stairs. I specifically chose this hotel because the ad said it had an elevator for the upper floors. ONLY for some rooms. We are elderly and there was no one available to help us move our bags up & down the flight of stairs when we got off the elevator. Breakfast was uninspired. The only tasty thing was a freshly baked cake every morning.

    Nice and clean, but noisy.

    It was super noisy! Doors were slamming all afternoon, and the room's insulation was terrible—I could hear the neighbors' TV all night.

    Great value for the money. Perfect location for taking the train to Bologna for the day. Staff were very helpful. Good breakfast. Spacious and comfortable room. You definitely need a car. We drove and parked at the train station and to dinner, shopping and to do laundry.

    There is no there there. Not a complaint, but important to qualify my review.

    8MartinPosted on: 10-28-2024

    A simple but very clean hotel with super nice and welcoming staff. Buffet breakast does not have a 5 star hotel variety but all the core items are there and they are of very good quality. Perfect location if you travel for work and need to be in the industrial area of Anzola. Very quiet, zero noise at night. I wish there was an electric kettle at the room but at this price, you can't have it all.

    As I said, I would love to have an electric kettle in the room. Something for tea or coffee. But that's a minor issue.

    Quiet place, nearby the airport

    Old fashion place, would need an update

    10MarionPosted on: 9-24-2024

    everything about the hotel, lovely family run business, could not do enough for you.

    would have liked to make a hot drink in my room, but having said this all is available at the bar next to reception anytime.

    7IvelinaPosted on: 8-31-2024

    Very friendly and polite stuff. The breakfast was good. And despite our late arrival there was a free parking spot for us.Tha bathroom was modern and very clean!Comfortable bed.

    We had to change the room, because previous guests have smoked in the room.No mosquito nets on the windows.

    The hotel is located outside of Bologna, but if you have a car, it is very easy to get there. The rooms are spacious and clean. The staff is very friendly and helpful. And a couple of cute cats welcome you too! The room we got was quiet, except for the occasional noisy guest (it's unbelievable to me how many people can't understand that you should lower your voice when in a hotel at night, but... you know... that's humanity), and with a beautiful view of the fields of the Pianura Padana. Frankly speaking, nothing to complain about. The room was very clean. The breakfast was very good, with fresh "cornetti" (briosch, in Italian). Let me say: nothing really fancy, but pretty good for the cost. Plenty of free parking and easy access is an added bonus.

    Nothing specific. The only drawback is that you have to leave the hotel to eat during the day and at night. But considering that we are talking about Bologna, "the kingdom of good food", also with respect to the rest of Italy, this is not a problem at all.

    The hotel room was spacious and clean. The location of the hotel is not bad as you can get a bus to the town centre which takes you directly there. The breakfast is average but good. The coffee is great.

    The only thing I didn't like was the strong smell of cats. I love animals but it was too much for me personally.

    8LauraPosted on: 1-5-2024

    It's a "getting old" hotel, but i loved it. I find it funny imagining the good old hotels as humans. They're not what they used to be, but there is still a lot of pride in their history. The decor is getting outdated, but that's part of their life. The staff is super friendly and i feel they carry that proud feeling of working at Alan's hotel. I really enjoyed it.

    The property was very clean, traditional and filled with lots of historic arts.

    Absolutely nothing. Everything was good.
