Hotel Michelino Bologna Fiera

Very comfortable hotel, with good bed, good shower, and excellent breakfast (hotels.com rates it as 3 stars, but breakfast was definitely 4 starts for me). The only thing I can complain is WiFi: I'm not sure if it was the room that I stayed, but for some things it was slow. REALLY slow. For example google photos took forever to (try to) backup a batch of photos (and could only finish about 5 after 10 minutes) and whatsApp phone calls didn't complete (even the ones with just audio) - text and audio messages worked fine, as well as other use of Apps and computer programs. The hotel is also nearby a road, so it's likely you will pass by it to reach the city - be aware of that.

No bus service around

Very convenient and well priced

Nice hotel, helpful staff, clean and spacious. Not much to see or do in the area and no busses, so you have to walk a bit to do anything unless you have a car. Nice pool area at the neighbour hotel.

DO NOT BOOK this hotel if you intend to use public transport. There are vast amounts of roadworks in the area surrounding the hotel. The nearest bus stop is 20 minutes walk away (and we walk quite quickly!) The walk walk wasn't safe either, as we had to walk on the road in part. Also, on return at night we had to walk on a long path, through a dimly iit park. On check in, the receptionist flippantly advised that we should use taxis (we didnt budget for this added expense!) The nearest supermarket was at least 15 minutes walk away, so we couldn't carry heavy bottles of water back to hotel. Some staff very reluctantly agreed to fill our travel bottles with tap water. However, we were refused at the pool bar, and that was after paying 7 Euros for a fruit juice! I would definitely not recommend this hotel whilst the roadworks continue, and also for the lack of goodwill to providing tap water. This discouraged us from paying for extra meals and snacks there.
