Great location, older hotel. Nothing fancy but solid. Air conditioner didn’t work so maybe beware in hotter months. Granted maybe I couldn’t figure out the a/c unit.

Centrally located super friendly staff Great breakfast Tutto Bene

Well situated establishment half way between the train station and Playa Majore. Breakfast was amazing!

The room was clean and fine for the price however there was no ventilation- we were a bit warm after traveling all day and there was no air conditioning, or even a fan. The staff said it was turned off for the winter (it was April), so we had to sleep with the windows open and our room was on the street- with people going to the train station nearby all night, it was really loud and hard to sleep.

Good breakfast spread, and very helpful staff. Water system left a smell in the room, so we had to sleep with the windows open.

Good location.

Room was clean and hotel is conveniently located. Breakfast was very good. The decor is very outdated and old fashioned.

RIght in the city center with countless great restaurants and a wonderful gelato shop nearby. Easy access to train station, lots of busses, etc. Nice breakfast. Staff helpful. Only negatives were lack of comfortable sitting chair in room, and a bit too warm for me, coming from a quite cold climate. I would definitely stay again.

LOCATION Zanhotel Tre Vecchi is about a 10-min walk from the Univ. of Bologna. TRAVEL It is an 8-min walk from Bologna Centrale ~ Bologna’s main train stn (allow yourself about 10 mins if you have luggage, or prefer to walk slowly). ROOM & BATHROOM The room was tastefully decorated, though small. The hotel follows a green policy, providing premium toiletries in refillable dispensers, minimising single-use plastic containers. DINING OPTIONS The hotel opens out on to Via dell’Indipendenza ~ one of the main arteries in Bologna’s historic quarter, and a parade of restaurants, shops, cafés, and heritage architecture ~ leading from Bologna Centrale to Piazza Maggiore. STAFF The staff are warm, friendly, helpful. I wanted to make the pilgrimage on foot to the hilltop basilica of the Santuario della Madonna di San Luca, situated c. 3.5km from the city centre. Seeing my determination to do this on foot, and not take public transport, the receptionist kindly worked out the best/safest route for me on a map. The walk there and back was effortless. I had an early-morning train to Padova the next day, but was reassured breakfast in the restaurant would be ready before my departure. BREAKFAST PLENTY of excellent fresh fruit, yoghurts, juices, a selection of cold meats/cured meats and cheese, a selection of hot food items, and the most scrumptious cakes. SAFETY Being on the Via dell’Indipendenza, the Zanhotel Tre Vecchi is in a busy area of Bologna that feels safe.

For the price, we were pleasantly surprised with this hotel! Very classy, wonderful staff, delicious breakfast! Luggage storage was a huge benefit!

Exelente option we had a great time the service was great and the room is Cousy clean and very nice

Bon hotel mais sans plus, qui semble avoir perdu de sa superbe. Décoration surannée et usée, personnel pas très accueillant. Petit déjeuner complet mais pas fou. Pas de stationnement sur place, mais dans parking voisin (payant).

Excellent!

Lovely location. Great staff

Was lovely to stay in a traditional old school Italian decor hotel. Staff were not especially welcoming when compared to other hotels I stayed in on this trip.

The location was very convenient and very close to the city center. The hotel itself was okay, obviously old and there were signs of disrepair throughout including peeling paint, broken cabinet door and old carpet. That said our room was still clean and comfortable if just a little musty, but we could have opened the window to fix that.

I got a fairly bare bones room with a small bed. Fine for a business meeting, but I definitely would have moved if I was on vacation. The staff was very helpful and friendly, and the breakfast was very nice. And it is *very* conveniently located to the historic area.

Regular visiter to Bologna and have used this hotel before. always good, so cannot fault it.

This is not a 4 star property as the carpets are dirty, curtains torn and the bathroom facilities seem to have been installed in the 90s. The only good thing I can highlight is the quality of the breakfast.

Great location at the beginning of the shopping centre. Requires a make over as areas dated . Bathroom was immaculate and lovely . Lovely place to stay
