About

Room Sweet Room - Bologna

Room Sweet Room sits on Via Antonio Francesco Ghiselli, about 480 metres from the Sanctuary of the Madonna di San Luca and 500 metres from Santa Maria Madre della Chiesa.

The guesthouse keeps things simple: no smoking, no pets, and no children — just adults looking for a calm base. Rooms have air conditioning, a flat-screen TV, tea and coffee facilities, and either a private or shared bathroom. Public parking is available nearby for those driving.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • A way from the historic core — Piazza Maggiore and the Two Towers are about 3.1 and 3.4 kilometres away, so you'll need a bus or a longer walk to reach the main sights.
  • Not for families or pet owners — The property is strictly adults-only, and pets are not allowed, which rules it out for some travellers.
  • Parking is public, not private — While parking is available, it's public parking nearby rather than a private on-site lot, so availability can vary.
  • Check-in window is narrow-ish — Check-in runs from 15:30 to 23:59, so if you're arriving very late, you'll need to plan around that.

“We had an absolutely wonderful time here. The location is great for reaching the centre of the old town — close enough to the bus stop and Bologna itself, and an easy stroll to restaurants. The room had a flat-screen TV with cable channels, air conditioning and a microwave.”

The bottom line

Room Sweet Room works best for adults who value a quiet, well-equipped room near the Sanctuary of San Luca and don't mind being outside the tourist heart of Bologna. The high room score and solid overall rating reflect dependable comfort, though the distance from Piazza Maggiore and the adults-only rule mean it's not for every traveller.

8.8A calm, adults-only guesthouse with strong room ratings, best for those who prioritise peace over centrality.
