About
Hotel Tuscolano
Hotel Tuscolano is a small, 2-star property on Via Del Tuscolano, outside the historic centre of Bologna. It keeps things simple: rooms are clean and functional, with private bathrooms, air conditioning and heating. The hotel operates with a vending-machine snack setup rather than a full restaurant, and guests gather in a shared lounge or on the terrace.
The hotel is best known for practical advantages. Parking is available on site, and the location suits drivers arriving late or leaving early via the airport or the motorway. Guests frequently mention the owners in reviews, describing them as warm, helpful, and full of local recommendations.

Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Doesn't have a restaurant or bar — There is no on-site restaurant; instead, the hotel offers vending machines for snacks and drinks. You'll need to head out for meals.
- Basic facilities overall — As a 2-star property, expect a modest offering – the facilities rating (6.1) and general rating (6.1) reflect a simple, no-frills stay.
- Check-in window is limited — Check-in is from 13:30 to 22:00, so if you arrive later than 10 pm, you'll need to arrange something with the hotel in advance.
- No pets allowed — The hotel does not accommodate pets, which may be a limitation for those travelling with animals.

04 — Location
Getting around Bologna
The property sits in Bologna.
Getting to the centre: Bologna's historic centre is about a 10-minute taxi ride away, or you can use public transport from the nearby stop. The hotel is on the outskirts, so plan for a short trip if you want to visit Piazza Maggiore or the Two Towers.
Airport and motorway links: Bologna airport is a convenient drive from the hotel, and the motorway is also close by. This makes sense for travellers arriving late or leaving early, or for those exploring the Emilia-Romagna region by car.
Local conveniences: A market and shops are within walking distance, according to guest reviews. That's handy for picking up essentials or grabbing a snack without having to drive anywhere.
