Savhotel Aemilia Bologna
6/10 Okay
"Staff was very helpful during our stay. The first room we had was much too loud. You must request a room facing the back if street noise will bother you. Drinks was nice sitting outside and dinner in the restaurant wasn’t bad. "
Royal Hotel Carlton

"Nice hotel, lovely breakfast, however it was 26Deg upon arrival and the bedroom was boiling. Went to turn in the AC to discover it was activated, contacted reception who advised they don’t turn it on until May!!! Lost a nights sleep due to it being a complete sweat box. Overall a very nice hotel apart from this. "
