Rates start at €200 to €240 (up to €370 during trade fairs) for a standard double at the Dei Commercianti. The lovely structure facing the flank of San Petronius was built in the 12th century as the city's first seat of government, and a recent renovation took full advantage of this antiquity, showing off original beams and flooring in cutaway views through protective glass, and, in places, even a bit of fresco. Antique pieces and Oriental carpets fill the lobby, vaulting and columns the breakfast room. The polished woodwork and rustic touches extend down the twisting halls into the stunning rooms, which have been carved out of the centuries-old structure and vary widely in size and shape. Even the smallest, though, are welcoming. Most of the beds are canopied or have iron frames; the fabrics are rich red, gold, and blue; the TVs are flatscreens; and lots of rooms have beamed ceilings and inlaid marble tables.

The price categories for hotels on this site are as follows:
€ | Under €100 |
€€ | €100–€200 |
€€€ | Over €200 |
This reflects the lowest cost for a standard double room in low season.
Yes, that does leave a whole lot of wiggle room. Rates will be rather higher for, say, a "superior deluxe" room with a spectacular view at the height of high season. Still, we have to be able to compare somewhere—and using this metric does at least give you a relative sense of how the hotels compare to one another on price.
Since price ranges (€€–€€€) only muddy the issue, I will usually stick to a single designation for each hotel. The only time you will see a range is if a property offers more than one distinct category of lodging—not different types of rooms (many do that), but say a property that offiers, say, both private hotel rooms as well as hostel-like beds in a shared dormitory.
