Interior decor of hotel outdated, our room was very humid being on the sixth floor and the AC could not be lowered below 24 C which really should be more clearly posted given the hotel lists AC as one of its amenities. Hotel claims this is due to local laws but did not run into this issue with other hotels I stayed at while in Italy. Beds are hard and not comfortable, and the shower door leaked water onto the floor. Would not stay here again.

Clean but dated. HOT rooms.

The hotel was clean but the rooms were a bit dated. Even though they advertise air conditioned rooms, they will not turn the air below 75 degrees F (24 c). It was very hot in the room at night, and made our stay very uncomfortable.

Great location, super close to the train station and I was able to leave my luggage at the hotel even after checking out as I was leaving later that day. Nice, clean room, good customer service. Some marks on furnishings and walls/floors that show a bit of wear and tear all around, but not too bad or noticeable. The hotel was also really close to some of the main areas of interest as well as some great restaurants and cafes. Would love to have a bit more spa facilities, for example, pool access

The Carlton was modern with nice rooms and pretty grounds. Staff was great, scheduled transportation early in the morning to the airport. Surrounding area was questionable, lots of graffiti and we felt a little unsafe on a couple of our walks. But, the hotel has a restaurant and bar onsite.

10/10!

The hotel staff were very accommodating and friendly from when the booking was made to inquiries in between to check-in, our stay, then check-out! The rooms were traditional but chic. If you’re in Bologna, the hotel is in a safe location that is walkable to the centre. There are also groceries nearby.

Nice plush hotel near station

Lovely hotel with some amazing paintings and busts. It seemed quiet when I was there (I was one of only 4 people in the restaurant) but when I asked to change rooms as it was an adjoining room and there was some noise, I was told it was full. The location is great - 5 mins from the train station and about a 10/15 minute walk to the centre of town.
