A new-ish hotel brand created to foster genuine connection and positive change.

A charming historic guesthouse surrounded by postcard-worthy views. Take 'em in from one of the poolside loungers.

Huge, gloriously traditional rooms housed in a 17th-century manor house (surrounded by idyllic parklike grounds, of course).

The centre of town isn't far, and the train station's even closer.

Nestled on the hills just outside the city and only a 10-min drive from the centre.

A less than 10-min stroll will get you to the Bologna Museum of Modern Art (MAMbo), which focuses on art from WWII to the present.

Close to the university and Padua Fiere, the bus stop to the city centre is right outside.

Lobby is airy and open, with all-white seating and palmy plants. Crisp rooms (also done up in whites), rock wood floors and free WiFi.

Sophisticated hotel ideally situated steps from the railway station, getting you to the ancient city within minutes.

A 10-minute bus or shuttle ride to the historic centre. Your gondolier will take it from there.

Steps from the park (views from the restaurant terrace!), and the city’s best shopping streets. Win-win.

Quiet, but not secluded — easy access to the A1 and A22.

Boutique gem in the heart of Bologna, focused on authentic Italian warmth and hospitality. (Let’s just say it’ll be hard to say arrivederci.)
