Great Hotel!
The I Portici Hotel was perfect for our stay in Bologna. I was a little concerned after reading the reviews regarding issues with the air conditioning, but we did not find it to be a problem, and we were there in August. The staff was helpful for the most part - although I was surprised that the front desk didnt seem to acknowledge us when we walked into the building late at night - I kept thinking to myself "what if we werent even guests here?". Perhaps this is a result of the hotel bar being on the second floor - not sure, but regardless, it would have really concerned me if I were travelling alone. The room was beautiful and the bathroom was clean. The shower stall in our room was a little small - fine for two girls but not sure how the average American male would feel about it. Overall, I would recommend this hotel, as it was beautiful and very convenient.

Very chic but maybe better for business travelers
The hotel was very modern, clean, and elegant. The service was very good, wifi was available, and the location was walkable to the main sights of Bologna.
We were very comfortable except that the very minimalist decorations did not include a mirror in the room or much space in the bathroom for our stuff. I wondered whether mostly male business travelers use this hotel?
