What travelers say
A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“We were a group of 17 people and stayed here for 3 nights. We happened to catch a show at the front door so we decided to have dinner at the hotel restaurant. And it turned out the food is really good, and the show was quite interesting. If you are lucky enough to stay here on Friday like us, you will be able to go downstairs and check out the weekend market the on Saturday market! It was so much fun and so much to see. Staff here are very friendly and professional. One of our group spilled water in the closet in his room, and the manager helped us to have the accident settled, which is very generous. This place is less than 30 mins drive to center Bologna and 1 hour to Modena and Ferrara. For people want some chill time like us to avoid the crowds in the city, I’ll say here is one of the best options.”
“This is a beautiful hotel and restaurant. It is an older building with great history. Loved staying here for my first trip to Italy. Staff was amazing! There is limited parking onsite with some spots in front of the hotel with a more spots in the garage below. The rooms are nice, it is an older building but felt safe and comfortable.”
“Hotel Alla Rocca is Bazzano's premier restaurant and hotel. Great customer service with a location right in the heart of this quaint Italian town. The rooms are small yet cozy. The restaurant serves up both traditional and modern takes on Italian classics. But be prepared to spend a lot of Euros, as this restaurant can be expensive. Highly recommended!”
