Journey Overview
Landing at Bologna Guglielmo Marconi Airport and heading to the Hotel Metropolitan? A private transfer is the smoothest way to start your stay in Bologna. Instead of the AerobusTrain people-mover to Bologna Centrale station, then a taxi or walk with your luggage, a professional English-speaking driver meets you in arrivals, helps with your luggage and takes you directly to the hotel door in Via Indipendenza / Centre.
Every transfer includes real-time flight monitoring, meet & greet, luggage assistance, a professional English-speaking driver and a fixed, all-inclusive fare — a genuine door-to-door service with no meter and no hidden charges.
Why Choose Our Private Transfer
Bologna's public options each have trade-offs. A private transfer replaces the AerobusTrain people-mover to Bologna Centrale station, then a taxi or walk with your luggage with one direct ride: a guaranteed driver waiting for your flight, help with your bags, and a fixed price agreed before you travel.

Route & Journey Information

- Route: a short run from the airport's access road into Via Indipendenza / Centre, via Via Triumvirato and the city's northern approach roads

Flight Monitoring & Meet & Greet
We track your flight number from take-off, so if it lands early, late or is delayed, your driver's pickup time adjusts automatically — no need to call or rebook. A complimentary waiting period covers the time it typically takes to clear passport control and collect luggage at BLQ's compact terminal, and your driver holds a name sign at the meeting zone just beyond baggage reclaim, between the arrivals gate and the taxi/shuttle rank, with a name sign so you are easy to find.
About the Hotel Metropolitan
Hotel Metropolitan is a contemporary boutique hotel tucked just off Via dell'Indipendenza, with a small rooftop garden that is unusual for the historic centre. Its clean, modern interiors sit within easy walking distance of both the station and Piazza Maggiore.
A rooftop terrace offers a quiet garden break above the busy Indipendenza shopping street. It is especially well suited to travellers wanting a modern boutique base midway between the station and Piazza Maggiore.
