What guests think

Across many reviews, Savhotel Aemilia Bologna is praised for friendly, professional staff, modern comfortable rooms, and a quality breakfast and restaurant, with a walkable but non-central location that feels quieter and often takes 15–25 minutes to the historic core.

Guests often mention a pleasant rooftop terrace and convenient parking; however, the gym is limited, the hot tub can be unavailable or lukewarm, and there are no on-site EV chargers. While cleanliness is widely praised, a few note minor maintenance or housekeeping lapses and that nearby streets have fewer restaurants and feel less charming. Overall, expect a modern, comfortable base for exploring Bologna.

Couldn’t fault the hotel for our 3 night stay, location perfect…10-15 minute walk down Bologna’s picturesque streets into the centre. Staff were incredibly helpful, easy check in and umbrellas available if it’s raining outside. Rooms were spacious, light and airy, with a massive bed. 15 minute/€25 taxi ride from the airport and 5 min drive from the train station. Roof terrace was lovely to sit on with great views of the city and can take your own food and drink up. Would 100% stay here again

Decent size room, nice toiletries and the slippers were a nice touch. I appreciated being able to access my Netflix account easily. I especially liked the pod coffee machine in the room as well as kettle, sensible size cups and plentiful supply of tea-bags. The breakfast offerings were varied and included fruit and cereal as well as the standard cooked options. The bar area on the first floor was welcoming and the free tapas was another nice touch. Overall, a very nice experience. Very nice staff.

When I booked I liked the reviews about cleanliness and comfort -and it was ! We slept really well and the beds were very comfortable. I liked the look of the roof terrace as I thought Bologna would be hot - which it was . However we didn’t seem to be able to get served up there .Though we did carry a coffee up after breakfast and it was quite nice to be able to sit up there it wasn’t quite what I thought . The breakfast had a good range of food choices . I needed a twin room as I was with my son and sadly none of the ‘upgraded’ rooms or rooms on higher floors with better views had twin beds . It was walkable into the centre - though quite a long walk - which wasn’t bad as we clocked up our steps !! A bit far from the train station so we had to take taxis when we did day trips . I think I will probably stay a little closer in next time - but it was a good hotel .

The room itself was quite nice and large for a twin. It was generally pretty clean but there was some mould etc on the sealant and in the shower The staff were always very helpful and it is a good price per night. The shared areas definitely needed some attention… we found the roof terrace particularly underwhelming and a bit rundown. There is a phone where you can place orders for drinks but generally the whole concept needs updating & modernising to make it a welcoming usable space. The hallways and common areas (excluding reception) are a bit shabby. The hotel is a good 25 minute walk from the centre of Bologna

About 20 mins walk to the centre but good food options closer by. Breakfast fine and good value. A good base for Bologna and the wider region. Easy check out and storage.

When I arrived to the hotel I was greeted by a very enthusiastic and welcoming gentleman. He was extremely helpful and suggested where to go in the city. The room itself was clean, roomy and quiet. The hotel was a short walk into the main city area, and had good food options around and at the hotel. The times that I was in my room I was able to stream Netflix from my mobile phone which was nice. The only downside I would say is the stiffness of the bed and pillows. This however was not a huge problem for me because I didn’t stay too long. I would recommend staying here!

Really enjoyable stay in a superior city view room. View was worth the extra. Very clean & comfortable apart from the room temperature. Only complaint was apparently the air conditioning is controlled centrally and was turned off so couldn’t cool down the room from 25 degrees. Air con was however evident in shared areas. Huge bed with lovely crisp white sheets. Taxi to main train station €13 but only €9 back as different route. Breakfast was excellent, friendly efficient service also experienced the one evening we had dinner in the hotel. Complimentary snacks served in the bar early eve which was a nice touch. Reception staff very friendly & helpful. Approx 15 minute walk to main area in town. Taxi to airport was cheaper (€24) than airport shuttle train (€11 pp) plus bus or taxi. Journey time 20 minutes and taxis arrive to hotel 6 minutes after ordering. Would stay again if ever return to Bologna.

5*+ rating for this special hotel in Bologna. For my first trip to Italy, my stay at this hotel made the entire experience that much more special. From the moment I checked in, to when I checked out the entire concierge team were welcoming, friendly and gave great tips on what to do and where to go. I was very surprised to have received a room upgrade - west facing, simply the comfiest hotel bed I have ever slept in and, a gorgeous bathroom with decent water pressure. If I had an extra day to my trip, I would have spent it in the hotel really taking advantage of the bar, lounge and restaurant. Or, just sleeping in - the bed was that comfortable. When I return to Bologna, I will only stay at Savhotel Aemilia.

Austere might not be the right word, but the complete lack of charm or even the thought of making you feel comfortable undoes the efficiency and exacerbates the sterility of the place. A further deterrent for feeling welcome is the abrasive front desk staff. The one redeeming factor was the bartender at the most likely repellent bar I have ever frequented with a blaring tv, the seating dispersed in either side of a gangway illuminated by floodlights that would fit a tarmac more usefully. In spite of the inhospitable environment I enjoyed one of the better martinis I had outside of London and New York. Hats off!
