This was a simple sleep-over to break a long trip. This hotel unfortunately creates the impression of shabbiness. The breakfast room floor looked as if it hadn't seen a vacuum cleaner for a week or two, the swimming pool (which was only about 30% full) was green and dirty, the lawn should have been cut two weeks before etc. No,...

Since we came to the hotel I knew I would give them some "good points". Small details like plywood Tyrannosaurus Rex 3D puzzles for kids that we got upon checking-in was only first nice surprise. We were travelling by car, full family (2+2 teens+2 kids), we had two rooms. Each room had one huge bed and one extra bed, regular... More

A clean and quiet hotel on the outskirts of Bologna. Best to have a GPS to find it as the roads are not well marked in this area. There is shopping close by, including a shopping center with cafe and fast food as well as a large supermarket. The hotel is clean, rooms are priced reasonably for the quality. Bed... More

Situated on the outskirts of Bologna, about a 15 minute taxi ride to the centre (20 Euros). This hotel is relaxed and delivers everything that it promises. The reception staff at this hotel are a great bunch of people, always happy to help, courteous, efficient and nothing is too much trouble for them. The hotel itself is a basic Novotel,... More

The most difficult issue was to find this hotel by car having no GPS - there are only few direction signs on couple crossroads. The food in restaurant was not bad but not perfect as well. Nevertheless people in hotel are very open; sympathetic and ready to help you at every time. The room was clean all 4 days which... More

If you don't ask for a downtown tour and need for a easy business location around the city Novotel close to San Lazzaro highway exit is a good opportunity to spend the right money for a well adressed hotel solution

The hotel is pretty decent, and the service was excellent, but it is in desperate need of an update......The decor just seems tired, and the rooms need newer furnishings, especially with the business traveling in mind.

Stayed here with a friend during our EuroTrip and also for one night before heading to Lugano. The room reminded me of That 70's Show a bit. However they provided free wifi in the room and breakfast was pretty decent. The view from outside the hotel in the morning was gorgeous tho.
