Hotel Porta San Mamolo

Nice hotel, 10 minute walk away from the busiest parts of bologna. In my opinion, the perfect spot. No glitz and glamour lobby with easy and quick check in. Hotel surrounded by residents, and are neighbors with 2 fantastic restaurants. Beautiful, green hotel grounds, some days I didn't want to leave. Rooms were clean and updated. Staff promptly fulfilled some needs and complaints that we had, and were very accommodating. Thank you for the wonderful experience.

We were so fortunate to discover this outstanding hotel. It is a beautiful property, conveniently located in a quiet location but within walking distance of Piazza Maggiore. The staff went above and beyond, arranging for a parking space, and calling to make dinner reservations for us at two excellent nearby restaurants. The room was clean and comfortable, and breakfast was excellent. We will definitely stay here every time we are in Bologna.

Booked as part of a package. Welcome was friendly, as were all the staff. Room was large and spacious with a small hallway separating the bedroom and bathroom. Bedroom window looked out over a lovely courtyard garden, which was also one of the areas available to use for breakfast. There were only 2 rooms on our level, with the only drawback being a temperamental lift - at least 4 times we had to call reception to get someone to access from the ground floor, so that we could get out. Good choice of items for the breakfast buffet - staff were very friendly and attentive. We felt that the hotel would benefit from a small bar, to enable guests to sit out and use the courtyard garden area for a quiet drink in relaxing surroundings.
