Journey Overview
A private departure transfer from the Royal Hotel Carlton to Bologna Guglielmo Marconi Airport is the reliable way to catch your flight. The driver meets you at the hotel in Train Station / Pietramellara and drives you straight to the airport, luggage handled throughout.
Every transfer includes an on-time hotel pickup, 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
There are cheaper ways to make this journey, but few as effortless. On departure day, a fixed-price car from the Royal Hotel Carlton guarantees a pickup at a set time and a driver who knows the fastest route to BLQ, so you avoid dragging luggage through the AerobusTrain people-mover to Bologna Centrale station, then a taxi or walk with your luggage.

About the Royal Hotel Carlton
The Royal Hotel Carlton sits on Via Montebello a short walk from Bologna Centrale, notable for its rooftop pool and terrace with views over the city's rooftops and towers. It is one of the few central Bologna hotels with genuine outdoor pool access.
Its rooftop bar and pool terrace are a summer draw uncommon among the station-district hotels. It is especially well suited to travellers wanting a rooftop pool and skyline views near the station.

About Bologna Guglielmo Marconi Airport
Bologna Guglielmo Marconi Airport (BLQ) is a single-terminal airport about 6 km northwest of the historic centre, with a compact, easy-to-navigate arrivals hall. A people-mover train, the AerobusTrain, links it to Bologna Centrale station, but it involves a station change and a walk or taxi with luggage at the other end — a private transfer instead takes you directly to your hotel's door. BLQ is also a convenient alternative gateway for Modena's Ferrari Museum, Parma and Ravenna, all reachable within an hour or so by road.
