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.

We had a great stay at the Phi hotel. All staff were very helpful and friendly. Giulio (I think 🤔) gave us a warm welcome, coffee while we waited and an upgraded room. Breakfast staff were friendly and hardworking. Breakfast was excellent, with a wonderful choice of local produce. The room was spacious and well equipped with comfy beds. We had a small balcony with chairs and table which would be lovely in the warmer months. The location is perfect, just off Piazza Maggiore, and lots to do and to see within a short walk. I also appreciated help from reception with printing off our boarding passes for our flight home. Bologna is a beautiful, vibrant and historic city which I hope to visit again, and I would definitely choose Phi hotel again. Thank you for a very enjoyable stay.

Everything good except access by vehicle.
The stay is good. Location is great and easily accessible to the tourist attractions. Only thing for future travellers to take note is the driving to the hotel is horrendous. There was a road closure for a particular road and we are not able to drive to the hotel. It took us nearly two hours to get there and we finally gave up. The hotel should have given us a better instruction on how we can make a detour to avoid the road closure. In the end , we parked our vehicle around 800 meters away and carry our luggage all the way to the hotel.
