This three-star hotel outside Bologna has a delightful setting, in the verdant countryside outside town - giving a superb base for exploring this beautiful old city. Founded by the Etruscans in the sixth century BC, the city of Bologna has a fascinating history stretching back over 2000 years. The Studio university, which was founded in 1088 and is the oldest in Europe, has drawn scholars here for centuries and the city's treasure trove of historic buildings rivals that of Florence and Venice. The city of Bologna is also home to the Italian classic tagliatelle alla Bolgnese, said to have been inspired by Lucrezia Borgia's golden hair, and the citizens here, who are reputed to be among the friendliest in Italy, take their food extremely seriously.
