Il Convento dei Fiori di Seta

In the heart of Bologna’s Historic Center, a short stroll from Teatro Duse and Margherita Gardens. Il Convento dei Fiori di Seta is a 4-star boutique hotel about 0.7 miles from Piazza Maggiore, minutes by car to Sant'Orsola Malpighi Hospital and the University of Bologna, and roughly 15.4 km from Bologna Airport.

Housed in a restored 14th-century convent, the property mixes original brick and stone with frescoed walls for an intimate, elegant vibe. The hotel has just 10 air-conditioned rooms, each with minibars, flat-screen/LCD TVs (Sky channels), a safe and a desk. Bathrooms offer complimentary toiletries and hair dryers, with daily housekeeping and free Wi‑Fi throughout. The name and décor nod to the site's medieval silk history.

Pamper yourself in the wellness area—jacuzzi, Turkish bath, spa tub, steam room—and book on-site massages. Rent a bike to explore cobbled streets, unwind with a drink in the bar/lounge or order 24-hour room service. Complimentary breakfast is served daily, and guest services include concierge, gift shop/newsstand and optional on-site parking (charges may apply). Wake up to quiet cloistered mornings and easy access to the city’s sights.

Complimentary wireless internet and a computer station support remote work. The hotel also offers a banquet hall, 24-hour front desk, multilingual staff, luggage storage and a safe deposit box.

A complimentary full buffet breakfast is served daily from 7:30 AM to 10:00 AM. A relaxed bar/lounge serves drinks, and 24-hour room service is available for late nights after exploring Bologna’s culinary scene.
