About

Residence Cavazza

Residence Cavazza sits in the heart of Bologna, about a 20-minute stroll from the scenic 19th-century Montagnola Park. The hotel keeps things simple and comfortable, with Wi-Fi throughout, air conditioning in the rooms, and a buffet breakfast that guests frequently single out as a highlight.

The atmosphere is noticeably calm, and the staff earn consistent praise for going beyond the expected — from warm welcomes to small treats at holidays. Rooms are described as reasonably large, often with a balcony, and the location makes exploring the city on foot easy.
