Starhotels Excelsior Reviews

I travelled with an older relative to Bologna and the experience and the stay at the hotel was pleasant and great.

Only one restaurant in the hotel

Location is very near to the bologna centrale station ~ 5 mins away. Good especially if you’re lugging a lot of luggages but quite a walk away from the main piazza shopping area ~ took us around 15-20 mins. Room provides 3in1 cappucino and milk creamer! Not all hotels provide these. There are English Tv channels. There is pillow menu even! Room is clean, kettle is cleaned sparkly too. Toilet light went faulty during our stay; flickering. We called reception to inform and she was supposed to call us back to let us know if their technician was still around at work to come and fix it or not but she may have forgotten to return us back the call. Checking out the next day so we didn’t bother but for guests staying longer you may have to call back reception to check….

Hotel directly opp. train station.

All ok

Hotel Management is an Italian local brand chain management company. The hotel is decorated in a new, simple and modern style. Friendly service and safe luggage storage. On the last day, I went to the airport and consulted the front desk. The little brother enthusiastically helped arrange a local Mercedes-Benz with seven seats, which solved the problem for the five of us and six suitcases. It is inconvenient to take a taxi to the airport here, and the price of the Airport Express at the train station is outrageous. The hotel rooms are spacious and conveniently located opposite the train station. It takes ten minutes to walk to the center of the old city. There is Galerie Gate and a large historic park nearby. There is an Asian restaurant next to the hotel, where simple meals are cost-effective.

The room is big, the bathroom is big, and it's 150 meters across from the central station, which is very convenient.

The service of the hotel is okay, the facilities are very good, but the breakfast is not delicious!

When you get out of the train station, you will see the hotel, as shown in Figure 1. The overall scale and lobby are better than the nearby UNA and Mercury bars. The decoration of the room is a bit old, but it still feels like a four-star hotel. It takes less than 20 minutes to walk to the downtown square and the twin towers. You can also take the No. 11 bus for 3 stops, and a ticket is 1.5 Euros, valid for 75 minutes. You can buy it in small tobacco shops on the roadside. There is Chinese food on the left side of the hotel, which is convenient but tastes average. The Italian snack bar on the right is delicious. Italian cuisine is mostly in line with domestic tastes. Recommend the fried Italian mini beef dumplings Fritti!

The hotel is overall good. The transportation is convenient, the train station is walking distance across the street, and it is also very convenient for eating and shopping in the surrounding area. I think the price/performance ratio is good, and the places to play and eat around are relatively close.

This hotel is opposite the train station, 10 points convenient, 5 minutes away, price, I also think it is 10 points reasonable, so I decided to choose again next time. 

Just across the main fire road, it is very convenient to go to the exhibition hall directly by bus. The front desk is warm and polite, much better than the UNA next door. There is a Chinese restaurant next door, highly recommended

I stayed for one night on the way home, my flight was early in the morning, so I chose a hotel opposite the train station from where the train goes to the airport. The hotel is easy to find, it's right opposite the train station across the road. The reception staff is very helpful and professional. The room was spacious, clean, good quality bed linen, very comfortable bed. There is a mini bar with drinks and snacks. It was hot in the city, the air conditioner was working in the room and it was very cool, but it was not possible to regulate the temperature and this is the only negative. It takes about 20 minutes to walk to the city center along a shopping street in the shade of indoor galleries. Overall the hotel impression is good.

There is a charge for snacks on the plate, a small bag of 4 euros. The location is very good. The train station is opposite. I didn’t eat breakfast. I don’t want to make a review. Generally speaking, it’s very good. It’s a pass. If you need to transfer to a train, I recommend you to choose this hotel
