The Grand Hotel Majestic, long known as the Baglioni, is Bologna's historic grande dame, on Via Indipendenza a short walk from the medieval Two Towers and Piazza Maggiore. A Leading Hotels of the World Sustainability Leader in an 18th-century palace, it is filled with frescoes, antiques and paintings, the most storied address in the capital of Emilia-Romagna, Italy's great food region.
The dining lives up to that reputation. I Carracci is a fine-dining restaurant beneath restored frescoes and 16th-century paintings, serving the typical dishes of Emilia-Romagna; the candlelit Enoteca Morandi pours over 300 wines with Bolognese fare in the cellar; and Cafè Marinetti offers piano-accompanied aperitifs.
For a historic stay in the heart of Bologna, the Grand Hotel Majestic is a benchmark.
