This hotel was very well situated in Bologna. It is less than a 30 in cab ride to the airport . It is in a very walkable area with many sights to be seen. The hotel provides a breakfast ( for a fee) and it was very good. There are several restaurants and cafes with in a few minutes of the hotel.( One is directly across from the hotel entrance). The staff was very helpful in arranging a cab for us to go to the airport. There is a lovely outdoor terrace on the second floor, which is a nice place to watch the sunset. They do not have a bar, which is a shame, because the outdoor terrace is so nice.We were very pleased with this hotel.

Hotel was located in a good stop to walk to most attractions. Bathroom was a little small need a shelf somewhere to put your items. About $25 euros for a taxi from the airport. Several good spots to eat near by. Not fancy but will do if you are out exploring.

Hotel San Donato is an excellent choice for exploring Bologna - well located at a good price. Special mention for the reception staff who were excellent. Rooms are a bit dated but do the job for short exploring stays

Excellent position in the city. Bars, cafes etc all very close. Clean rooms, efficient and helpful staff. Not the best value for money at over £200 a night, the room was small and the shower cramped.

The only good thing about this hotel is its location. The room was a shoebox; you could not take more than two steps in it. The bathroom was ok with cheap (and very few) amenities. The paper in the tissue box was like sand paper... I guess the price is only for the location.

My stay was fine, the staff were friendly and welcoming. There was a nice balcony area, with tables and chairs, overlooking the city. My room was a single and adequate but unfortunately, the shower was slippery underfoot and with no handrails. Dangerous especially for elderly guests like me.
