“Hotel Touring, a family-run operation, strikes me as a particularly appealing base for exploring Bologna; its rooftop terrace alone, with its panoramic views and cocktail offerings, feels like a real find. I appreciate the commitment to eco-friendly practices, right down to the organic local products at breakfast. Its location, a little removed from the main tourist crush yet still central, allows for pleasant discoveries like the nearby Salumeria La Bottega.”
