Amendola16 – A Favorite for Families in Bologna

Amendola16 sits directly across the street from Bologna Centrale station, putting guests within a 2-minute walk of high-speed trains and the Marconi Express airport shuttle. The hotel occupies an entire floor of a historic residential building, accessible via a vintage elevator and a three-layer security system that includes a building key, a keypad, and a magnetic key card. Piazza Maggiore and the Santo Stefano Church are reachable on foot in 19 minutes, while the Museum for the Memory of Ustica is a 6-minute stroll away.

Each of the 11 deluxe double or twin rooms is equipped with soundproof windows, air conditioning, and parquet floors, while private bathrooms include a bidet and a shower with strong water pressure. Rooms come with a microwave, a flat-screen TV, and a small fridge stocked with complimentary water and milk, plus daily snacks such as packaged pastries, jam, Nutella, and crackers. The hotel provides daily housekeeping, express check-in and check-out, and a luggage storage room for guests arriving early or leaving late.

The property operates without a physical front desk; all communication happens via WhatsApp, with the host sending check-in instructions 1-2 days before arrival. Entry to the building requires a conventional key, then a keypad code for the suite of rooms, and finally a magnetic key for the individual room. CCTV cameras monitor the outside of the building, and each room contains a safety deposit box, while fire extinguishers and smoke alarms are installed throughout the floor.

Guests can walk to MAMbo (Museum of Modern Art) in 6 minutes or reach Via dell' Indipendenza, Bologna's main shopping street, in under 1 km. The Archiginnasio di Bologna, one of the oldest university buildings in the world, is a 15-minute walk from the hotel. Rafting trips are available in the surrounding area for guests seeking water-based adventure.

Bologna Fair, a major convention center, is located 4.9 km from Amendola16, reachable by a short bus ride or taxi from the adjacent train station. The hotel offers a paid airport shuttle service to Bologna Guglielmo Marconi Airport, which is about a 10-minute drive. Guests with business needs benefit from the express check-in and check-out service, daily housekeeping, and a work desk with an ergonomic chair in each room.
