Hotel Bologna

Excellent location, within 5 minutes walk from the Torino Porta Nuova Train Station/ Carrefour Express/Penny mart. Room is big and clean and bathroom is amzingly spacious. The down side is tram way is so nearby, if your room is facing the Street with windows, the noise from the tram will be there from 6:30 am until 1am.

The hotel is located directly across from the train station and easy, flat walking all around. There’s lots of shopping and restaurants all around. The hotel was a bit dated in style but has all the basics needed. The beds were comfortable. Lots of hot water when needed. No breakfast here but there are places locally to get a bite.

Decide On Your Priorities An excellent location for airport, train and local transport connections, and for getting around central Turin on foot (it is not a large city). The staff were helpful; the room clean. However, the hotel is basic and offers few services. There is a problem with external and internal sound-proofing, in particular from the trams outside and which start at 5.25 am. (On one day there was no hot water for a large chunk of time). In a number of respects the hotel could do with a revamp; though I can see why this might be difficult. In sum, if you want cheap, simple and cheerful then this hotel is fine. If you want a bit more comfort, then you may be better off looking elsewhere.
