The hotel is located in the centre,facing a large,peaceful square,quite cool with some nice works of art all around the building. My room- on first floor- was really very small,probably never slept in my life-and I travel a lot- in such a tiny space..pity..the bathroom was almost bigger then the bedroom,very nice,confortable. The breakfast is very good,everything fresh,tasty,excellent selection of... More

The Novecento is a very arty hotel - there are lots of objets d'art around at the entrance. But it is a compact hotel, very compact. But the greatest reason to stay here is because of its location. It is bang in the centre of the tourist part of this beautiful city. The main piazza as well as the famous... More

Very nice hotel located in the middle of the city, just a few steps from the main piazza. The staff is glad to help and give good recommendations. The room was very comfortable, without noise and quite big for European Standards. The breakfast is also very good. More

This hotel is central to all the major points of interest in Bologna. We stayed on the top floor and had a cool room that felt like it was in the attic. The hotel was super clean and nice. I wasn't disappointed. Be sure to take a walk at night and get gelato at Sorbetteria Castiglione. More

I have traveled quite a bit in Italy, and I find the reviews of this hotel overrated. The location is excellent I have to say, right around the corner from Piazza Maggiore. Staff weren't so friendly though, especially in the breakfast room the first day, where pickings were quite slim and items weren't replaced, although we arrived right in the... More

When we arrived at the front desk and explained we only hand a few hours to see the city and asked for a tour suggestion. The concierge politely informed us it was impossible given... More

We spent five nights in a beautiful deluxe room at the Novecento. We loved the room with two comfortable reading chairs, a large bathroom and a balcony overlooking the quiet square in front of the hotel. We found the staff very helpful and the breakfast delicious. We loved the location a short distance from Piazza Maggiore, and a 15 minute... More

It started with a few email exchanges with the fabulous Francesco at Art Hotel Novecento who could not have been more helpful as we planned our trip to Bologna. When we arrived, he greeted us warmly, helped us find a perfecto restaurant for dinner, and offered several suggestions for the best way to tour the city and experience its wonderful... More

Well appointed room, but tiny. On arrival, the other person on the business trip was sent to the hotel next door because they had over-booked. The bed was tiny, the room was tiny, the bathrobe was leopard print. More
