Bologna boasts one of the most dynamic, "go-an'-get-'em" trade fair districts in Italy. Many exhibitors from all over the world flock to one or another of the various trade fairs held here each year. What's more, thanks to the large number of small-to-medium sized industries in and around Bologna, there's never any shortage of business travellers in town, and the town has positively responded, providing facilities and services especially geared to their requirements.
One of the facilities and service providers that has eagerly met the challenge of satisfying such demanding custom is without a doubt HC3. This four-star Hotel is in fact inspired by an innovative concept of hospitality and wellness. To start with, it is ideally located: being but a mere kilometre from the Fair District and the city's Congress Hall, a few hundred yards from the main railway station and the new municipal offices building, and last but not least close to the strategic number six "tangenziale" (ring-road) exit, there's truly hardly a better place for the business traveller to Bologna to alight than HC3.
The fine interior decoration and furnishings made out of select materials of the well laid out and essential, multifunction hall make for a pleasantly inviting ambience and relaxing haven the tired traveller is sure to appreciate upon arrival.
Caring for our guests' needs beyond straight accommodation is a must for us at HC3. That's why we offer highly efficient assistance by way of a concierge service (inquiries at reception) for guests requiring to make reservations for car rental, plane or railway tickets, or guided open bus tours of town.
Yet another guest-friendly part of the Hotel offering many amenities is the lounge. Here guests will be able to treat themselves to choice food from the refined self-service restaurant, drinks from the open bar, and around-the-clock courtesy coffee.
The Hotel's modern, techno-equipped conference room may be conveniently set up for work lunches, while a wireless office station permits to work in real time. Web connection in the Hotel's cyber hall is available for free to all our guests. Ample, hotel-reserved in- and outdoor parking is also free.
We believe in personalising our accommodation as much as possible. That's why each of the Hotel's 37 rooms has been decorated with different but all equally refined wallpaper. We also of course believe in ensuring our guests high quality standards throughout, so each room is fully fitted out with independent air conditioning, a fridge bar, fast web connection, a telephone, an interactive screen, TV on demand, an office station, and a lap-top storage capacity safe.
A hairdryer, plush slippers, and excellent quality body-care products await the guest in the elegantly appointed bathroom.
An efficient, day-return laundry service is available on request. Around-the-clock coffee, barley coffee, ginseng and herb tea dispensers are installed on each floor.
All environments in HC3 Hotel are designed for welcoming people with disabilities
