Bologna hotels - White Palace Hotel, Pieve di Cento

White Palace Hotel, near Bologna

The three-star White Palace Hotel was designed with elegance and freshness in mind. This shows in the striking, modern building and the cool but cosy rooms. It is located in Cento, a small city in the province of Bologna, which is part of the north-eastern region of Emilia-Romagna in Italy. Cento's Civic Gallery and some of its churches contain paintings by local Baroque artist Guercino, which are well worth seeing. The Rocca is another local attraction. It dates from 1378 and is a large square castle with angular towers. Beyond Cento, Bologna (34 kilometres), Modena (25 kilometres) and Ferrara (30 kilometres) are nearby business and cultural centres. The Adriatic coast is also accessible and the pine-backed beaches near Ravenna and Rimini make a great day trip. The nearest airport is Bologna G Marconi, just over 30 kilometres away.

The White Palace Hotel aims to give its guests a relaxing and stress-free stay. All of the hotel's chic and stylish rooms are fully soundproofed and air conditioned. Each room has all the comforts expected of a modern hotel, including in-room safety deposit box, direct-dial telephone, mini bar, satellite TV with pay-per-view movie channels, a cooking area, hair dryer and en-suite bathroom with either a bath or shower. The hotel is fully accessible for disabled guests and there is a lift/elevator and 24-hour porter. Taxi and minibus transport are optional extras and, if required, there is a same-day laundry service. Small pets are welcome and there is both external and covered parking available.
