Smart Hotel Autodromo

While this property offers clean, well-maintained accommodations and an exceptional dining experience at the on-site restaurant, its categorization as a Bologna hotel is misleading. It is an ideal location specifically for motorsports enthusiasts due to its proximity to the Imola racing circuit; however, it lacks nearby shopping or additional dining options, making it less than ideal for those intended to stay in Bologna. The hotel operates on a self-service model with communication handled via WhatsApp, which is efficient, but travelers should be aware of its specific location in Imola before booking through platforms like Expedia.

Very good

Overpriced in July – Clean Towels, But Not Much Else We stayed here in June for €200 for two nights, and for that price, it was acceptable. The room was clean, and the white towels and linens were fresh and neat. If you’re just looking for a clean place to sleep, it does the job. But we originally wanted to stay in July, and the price then jumps to €1900 for three nights — which is absolutely insane for what you actually get. Here’s what to expect (or not expect) at that price: No linen change during a 2-night stay — you’re using the same sheets from check-in to check-out. Amenities are neglected: the barbecue area is dirty, and outside furniture like tables, chairs, and cups are broken and gathering dust. If you drink American coffee, you're given a plastic cup and a stir stick — but no spoon to scoop the grounds. The toaster looks like it hasn’t been cleaned in centuries. And then there’s the mini-bar situation: €1 for a 500ml bottle of water not even cold €4 for a mini tube of off-brand chips passed off as “Pringles” — not the real thing, and definitely not full-sized. Even being near the racetrack doesn’t justify this kind of pricing. At nearly €700 per night, you’re not getting anything beyond basic cleanliness — and even that stops short of decent service. Final verdict: The towels may be clean, but the experience isn’t worth the price tag. At these rates, you can — and should — find somewhere far better.

Nice hotel and easy to use
