Art Hotel Corona d'Oro (1890) is a four-star hotel at Via Oberdan 12 in Bologna's Centro Storico, within the former Ghetto area of Emilia-Romagna, Italy. The location is a short walk from Piazza Maggiore and the Basilica di San Petronio, and the Two Towers, the Quadrilatero market lanes and the Archiginnasio are all within a few minutes on foot. Bologna Centrale railway station is about 20 minutes away on foot, with buses running along Via dell'Indipendenza.

The building dates from 1890, and the year in the hotel's name reflects that heritage. It stands among porticoed streets and medieval palaces, and the property presents itself as an art hotel with a traditional atmosphere suited to travellers who value character in the old town. Public areas include a restaurant and a bar, which is an advantage for guests who prefer to dine in the hotel after a day of sightseeing, with breakfast also served on site.

Rooms are listed as double and twin rooms. Facilities include air conditioning, in-room internet, a minibar and a lift, along with accessible rooms and a congress room for small meetings. Bicycles are available for guests and pets are accepted. Parking is not listed in the available data, so drivers should ask the hotel about options, particularly because the surrounding centre is a limited-traffic zone.

There is no spa or pool. Service is aimed at both leisure visitors and business travellers who want a central address with a meeting room, and the on-site restaurant gives the property more flexibility than many nearby hotels. Rates normally range from around €110 to €250 per night, rising during trade fairs, university graduation periods and the Christmas season. For visitors seeking a historic building a few steps from Bologna's main sights, with its own restaurant and bar, it is a convenient base.
