Courtyard and City Views
Hotel Cavour features an inner courtyard with seating areas and a small furnished terrace overlooking Bologna's towers. The property provides concierge services and a television in common areas. The hotel can host events for up to 50 people in auditorium-style seating.
Central Bologna Location
Located on Via Goito in Bologna's historic center, 550 meters from the Two Towers and 500 meters from Piazza Maggiore. The hotel is 750 meters from Bologna Centrale railway station and 8 km from Guglielmo Marconi Airport (BLQ). Reachable via BLQ shuttle bus from airport arrivals or taxi. By car, take beltway exit N°7 Stalingrado toward Via Tiberio Fiorilli. Vehicle license plates must be registered with reception for city center access.
Concierge and Accessibility
Services include 24-hour reception, luggage storage, and assistance with city events and exhibitions. The hotel offers connecting rooms, non-smoking floors, and rooms equipped for guests with mobility limitations. Elevators serve up to the second floor; attic rooms require climbing two flights of stairs. The property provides airport shuttle coordination and garage parking arrangements.
“A recent renovation has only enhanced the inherent charm of this historical building, now a boutique hotel. What strikes me is the location, literally steps from Piazza Maggiore, and the surprisingly spacious rooms. I think this could be a smart choice, especially given the included breakfast and the availability of an airport shuttle.”
