Stayed in this hotel for 3 nights to explore Bologna. Great little hotel with a small number of rooms. There were many nice touches including the silk rose rooms keys and complimetary umbrellas. Continental breakfast was fresh with fabulous italian coffee served. The old convent is well decorated with distinctly modern room designs. Staff were very friendly and the little... More

The hotel is located in an old convent, historically known for its silk production. Location - about 1 km from city center, but within the old city walls. The concept is fine. The decor and quality isn't of as high a standard as could be expected (listed as historical quality hotel). Good breakfast, ok room and extremely helpful staff with... More

We stayed at Il Convento for two nights in March 2013. We had a wonderful experience here beginning with the front staff (believe her name was Laura) helping us park our car into a tiny little spot. She proved extremely helpful throughout the stay including making several lunch and dinner reservations for us. I cannot speak highly enough about the... More

We spent three nights here. Excellent service and advice given on matters bolognese, restaurants were booked for us willingly. The staff are extremely friendly and welcoming. The rooms are comfortable, modern and nicely quirky with large floral themed illustrations, and a random selection of light fittings. The main reception lounge area looks like the old nunnery chapel, with some remaining... More

My husband and I stayed here for 3 nights. We really liked that this was a converted nunnery with the original features, and yet the bedrooms were furnished in a modern style. All the staff were brilliant (including the cutest dog ever) - we had excellent recommendations for restaurants from them and they even put a bottle of prosecco with... More

This is a lovely hotel set in a former convent. This photos of the frescoed ceiling are of the foyer and communal area. Disappointingly the rooms have modern decor. It is a bit out of the way if you are walking to the main sights. However the hosts are extremely helpful and welcoming which more than made up for this.

Great helpful and attentive service [especially Adi (orginally from Bosnia)], who has been of great help during our last stay. L\The hotel is located a bit out of the way, but it is great value for money. We frequent this hotel every time we are in Bologna.

My wife and I stayed here on a recent post Christmas vacation for three nights and thoroughly enjoyed our visit. The hotel is in a quiet neighborhood but only minutes from fine restaurants, museums, and the famous towers. The staff is exceptionally helpful with restaurant recommendations/ reservations, taxis, sightseeing recommendations, etc. The human staff is supplemented by their canine guest... More
