This hotel is really well located in the centre, so it's easily walkable to everything you need and lots of major attractions, restaurants, food markets etc. The staff are the best aspect of the hotel, both in reception and in the dining areas. Breakfasts were good, and the hotel resturant menu looked excellent although we had already booked other restaurants for dinner. Unfortunately the bathroom in our room flooded every time we used the shower, and the heating wasn't easy to control without asking reception to do it. Overall a great little hotel, and any shortcomings were easy to ignore given the lovely staff.

Clean, but an old building. The thematic rooms are a surprize, not nesseceraly desirable. Excellent breakfast. However, too pricy for the whole package.

Decent

Overall, an ok stay at this hotel. It was centrally located - just a block away from Piazza Maggiore and the main basilica. The staff was friendly and helpful. The room was uniquely decorated. The complimentary breakfast buffet was extensive and delicious. Unfortunately, the room itself was small small small small. It was barely big enough to fit a travel cot for my 3-year-old daughter. It was quiet, but we could still hear people on the street and noises from neighboring rooms. The bathroom looked old, and for a 4-star hotel, I was definitely expecting something more modern or more elegant. I'd probably stay elsewhere for my next visit to Bologna.

Phi hotel is right in the heart of the old town, within a few minutes walk to the main square. We stayed at an annexed apartment that's really spacious, with a kitchen, two bedrooms and bathrooms. The is parking for an additional fee, it's very tight and I had to be very careful to get in and out. However, a hotel staff was there to provide guidance which was a big help. We didn't need the car while we stayed at the hotel, and walked everywhere since it's so close to the old town center. I'd definitely recommend this hotel for staying in Bologna.

Excellent apartment - main bedroom and living area each had excellent A/C units. Upstairs bedroom A/C unit leaked water on the floor and could not use, Only other hiccup was the hot water supply which was plentiful when turned on from adjacent apartment unit. Was not on when we checked in and could not shower until 2 pm the next day. Then was turned off again the night before check out but got it turned on early next morning so we could shower before check out. Otherwise, an excellent bed and accommodations in the heart of the historic district.

Disappointing stay

This stay was very disappointing. I have stayed at the Phi Hotel before and its location for central Bologna is excellent. This stay I booked late, it was non refundable and very expensive - for a mediocre room. It was cold and heating could not be controlled in room - took a long time to warm up and had to contact front desk to adjust. The very large bathroom window had no blind or shutters and you could see inside from hallway approach - very exposed. Towel heater not working, came to fix then went away and didn’t return for an hour necessitating my waiting. And then it only worked for 30 minutes again having to ask front desk to switch on. It’s a 4 star hotel which should actually be 3 star with 5 star prices.
