Description : Bologna is truly a unique city - and not just for its spectacular high leaning towers and its kilometers of porticos. This is the city where the Alma Mater, the first university in the world, broke through the cultural darkness of the Middle Ages and left an artistic imprint and a legacy of cultural figures for all time. But Bologna is also a city with a huge population of young people, therefore a place with a healthy supply of entertainment. The two hostels here, both modern and functional, constitute an optimal base for discovering the city's cultural and artistic richness. This hostel (close to another YH, currently under works) and well-connected with the city center only a few kilometers away, fills your needs. In the city, there is the prospect of nice strolls under the Pavilion, in view of the majestic palace of King Enzo and the splendid basilica of Saint Peter. But this is only one example. Strada Maggiore and via Zamboni, and via Castiglione are always teeming with young people. These cultural itineraries are hard to ignore. Do not miss events as 'Artelibro' in September, 'Cioccoshow' in November and 'Motorshow' in December. Bologna is also an excellent base for visiting Ferrara (45 km), Modena (40 km), Parma (95 km), Ravenna (75 km), Reggio Emilia (65 km), Rimini (112 km). The hostel is a welcoming place in particular for young people, families, school trips and sport organizations. It is the cheapest and comfortable solution for your staying in Bologna.
