Antony and I have done the U2U bit already. Top bloke, lots of advice, so now I'm digging for a bit more detail. Ant' did the "fly in/fly out same day" thing.
Thanks guys. I have heard that there are traffic restrictions in Bologna. Do you think I'll be able to ride into these hotels. I think I can answer my own question here; how else are their customers going to arrive?
I've been to Bologna quite a few times, and I've never seen any traffic restrictions. The only time I've stayed in the city was back in January when the club did a factory visit.
Though, this site might help need a hotel site. Sharon and myself have used this to stay in Rimini and other cities in europe.
When I visited in an "official" capacity some years ago, that is exactly where we stayed. 5 minute walk from the factory. Pretty basic rooms, but comfortable enough - not that I was in it for long
have stayed at this one twice and would go back again - they have a ducati discount and they love ducati riders staying... it is a 4 star place but don't let that put you off. they have a garage to park which is a really good asset and a garagista who looks after your bike - especially if you are on an early morning mission. prices may not be holiday inn???? but we got a double(twin) and stayed in luxury for 2 days. location-wise it is about 5-10 mins easy access to borgo panigale as well as walking distance(the other direction) to the centre. check out the website it is www.hotelelite.it hope this is useful
