We humoulessly renamed this hotel "Non conveniento fordi city centrum" It's a 1000m plus from the main square along narrow streets. OK in the day but not at night. When I see the description boutique hotel these days I reach for my gun and load for bear! Beneath the flimsy veneer of this not particulerly interesting establishment lurk some significant... more

I stayed in this nice small hotel, during three days in February. The hotel turned out to be a potentially quite charming place, with rooms coverted with good taste in modern design. Good location. Located in the city's medival centre. 10 min walk from the main attractions. The hotel stated on it's website that it has a parking. Arriving close... more

I rely upon the educated opinions of fellow TAdvisors in my efforts to locate the perfect hotel to suit my tastes. Be assured that Il Convento has been well represented here and their website will fill in the rest of the blanks. Owner Carolina's chic sense of the Modern is evident in all the details large and small. Seated at... more

The 10 room hotel converted from a convent that later became a garage was an amazing find during our trip to Bologna. Bologna has many conventions and therefore many business type hotels. We were looking for something a little more origninal, and I am happy to say we found it here. The location is very convenient and quiet, the prices... more

My husband and I (both in our late 20s) spent two weeks traveling throughout Italy and this hotel had the best accommodations by far. It is very much like any high-end American boutique hotel, but with affordable prices. The bed is one (very comfortable) mattress with plush bedding which is a rarity in Europe. The common spaces are gorgeous and... more

I loved the feel of this former convent, and the place is interesting, luxurious and comfortable. The main spaces were lovely. Our room, a junior suite, had all the extra touches, such as great bedside reading lamps. The bathroom was very modern, yet functional (though not many places to set my toiletry bag), and I loved the gorgeous metallic tiles... more

We have just returned from a delightful stay at this wonderful little hotel.Perhaps if I say that we booked for three nights but ended up staying five it will give a flavour of our visit!!!. It is an absolute gem and thoroughly recommended. The staff are courteous and helpful and the whole ambience is of restrained luxury.A great deal of... more

The place is such a great find! The old nunnery is beautifully restored. Our room was clean, modern, nicely decorated and comfortable. Nice bathroom products, well beyond the basic shampoo/shower gel, comfortable bed. The breakfast was included. The hotel is located on a small street, not right in the center but very much within walking distance of all major sights.... more

my boyfriend and I spent one night at 'il convento dei fiori di seta' and found it was a very nice place. it is quite small, about 10 minutes' walk from the piazza maggiore, and with a convenient parking place near it (apparently only residents can park their own car in the street). lot of attention to details: wonderful shower,... more
