We love the flairs of modernity and fun at this immaculately presented studio apartment, perched right in the heart of Bologna's historic district. Housed in a 17th-century Renaissance building, the double-height ceilings tell of its rich history while everywhere else has been reimagined by a team of award-winning designers for seamless, modern living. 

Inspired by the Italian Bolidist design movement of the eighties, we love the vibrant primary colours of the space – it's a refreshing contrast to the ancient terracotta facades waiting outside. And though this is studio living, we think it's perfectly formed, with a bedroom overlooking the palazzo's inner courtyard, so you'll be able to bank a peaceful night's sleep. And there's a cosy breakfast bar nook and a neat, modern kitchen area for rustling up a light meal. Though let's face it, you're in Italy's gourmet capital, so we suspect you'll be dining out a lot.

And you won't have far to go to find all the delicacies, or indeed must-see sights, of the city. Dive into authentic trattorias for plates of the city's beloved ragù or grab gelatos and pizza al taglio on the go – you name it, you're near it. And when you're suitably watered and fed, make a beeline for the main square, Piazza Maggiore (just an eight-minute walk away), to get your bearings on the city. Or simply lose yourself to Bologna's colonnaded medieval grid of wander-worthy streets – you won't be disappointed.

Opening up the Juliet balcony doors of this central Bologna apartment to reveal terracotta medieval facades all around is everything you'd imagine a stay in this ancient city to be.

But it's an entirely different story inside this sleek city bolthole. A team of internationally renowned architects has reimagined this grand 17th century Renaissance building into a chic, minimalist retreat that looks like a masterclass in contemporary design. It's all high-spec finishes with colourful flourishes seen in the statement, botanical wallpaper, and glorious terrazzo floor for that all-important homely feel. 

Away from this luxurious home, you'll find the city's must-sees are all within easy reach on foot. Make a beeline for Fontana del Nettuni and the main square, Piazza Maggiore (both just an eight-minute walk away). Or, a smidge further, the famous Two Towers (ten minutes on foot). High roller shoppers can shop till they drop along Galleria Cavour, Bologna's luxury boutique street (eleven minutes on foot). And with the train station just a fifteen-minute stroll away, arriving in the city is a cinch. Trust us, it's all as easy as it sounds.

Just a seven-minute stroll from the city's main square, Piazza Maggiore, this home provides a modern base for couples and solo travellers. You'll find it in the medieval grid of Bologna's historic centre, nestled in a cluster of terracotta buildings and lofty porticoes. Here, you're at the heart of the action, surrounded by shops and eateries and within walking distance of the main sights. 

Though compact, this home's contemporary amenities promise comfort and sophistication. After a restful slumber, step outside onto the private balcony to sip espressos in the morning sun. We can't think of a better way to start the day than here, admiring picturesque views of Bologna's terracotta-tiled roofscape and its majestic Gothic church, the Basílica de San Pedro, an eight-minute stroll from your doorstep. Prepare breakfast at the kitchenette, complete with a nifty breakfast bar, or head out for pastries at a local bakery – we recommend the croissants at Pappare', a ten-minute stroll from your doorstep.

Outdoor Seating

It may be ensconced in the shambling, medieval Old Town of Bologna, but this flash studio apartment is the opposite of old-fashioned. First, there are the bright yellow racing stripes behind the big bed. Then, there’s the canary-yellow kitchen sitting against a coal-black canvas. A huddle of yukka plants adds a bit of greenery too.

Stepping outside the building, you’re immediately in a medieval world of ancient, porticoed streets where cafés and restaurants spill out onto the covered pavements. Stroll through this labyrinth of rose-coloured buildings to Piazza Maggiore, Bologna’s main square a seven-minute walk away. If you’re not sampling the local, freshly-made tortelloni in family-run restaurants or sipping neon-bright spritz at aperitivo, perhaps load up on the fresh, local market produce for a feast at home.

Take your foot off the pedal and unwind in the cool living space – sit back and relax on the soft leather couch before putting together an antipasto platter in the sleek kitchenette. 

When you’re ready to step it up a gear, head out into the charming streets that surround your building. Pore over the medieval and Renaissance structures, such as the Fountain of Neptune and the Basilica di San Petronia and City Hall in Piazza Maggiore, situated less than a ten-minute walk away. And when it’s time to refuel, seek out a traditional ristorante for a plate of famous tagliatelle alla Bolognese. 

Extreme Motor XVIII

Perfectly located in the heart of Bologna’s historic centre, this modern and comfortable studio apartment is an ideal base for a couple or a solo traveller wishing to experience all that this beautiful city has to offer. Just a five-minute walk from Piazza Maggiore and the iconic Two Towers, you’ll be right in the midst of things, while at the same time you’ll find the apartment nestled in a back street, away from the hustle and bustle of the nearby Via dell’Indipendenza. 

The studio is situated within a beautiful Renaissance palazzo, with a grand entrance and an internal courtyard, typical of the style. Inside, the place feels ultra-modern and stylish, while still maintaining some of its historic character. A carefully designed concept, all the apartments feature unique designs, with the common thread of minimalist chic. 

This studio apartment, designed around the theme of business trip elegance, may be small in scale, but it has all you need to make your stay a relaxing and comfortable one.  Upon entering you will find yourself in the kitchen and sitting area, where you can relax with a cup of coffee and even catch up on work, should the need arise. The bedroom, separated by a partition wall features a luxuriously comfy bed, which carries the promise of a good night’s rest. Wake up refreshed and ready for another day of la dolce vita, Bolognese style. 


The Luminator

This stylish studio ticks all our boxes. Not only does it offer sleek living spaces and 21st-century comforts like rainfall showers and Nespresso machines, but the location is absolutely incredible. You're just around the corner from Bologna's main square, Piazza Maggiore, and a five-minute stroll from the Two Towers. There's a wealth of restaurants, museums, shops and bars all within walking distance – those wanting to be in the heart of the action couldn't ask for a better spot to call home. 

After a long day of exploring, retreat to this cosy studio flat for some much-needed rest and relaxation. Wooden furniture, leafy wallpaper and glossy finishings all work together to create a soothing spot to kick off your shoes. Although compact, the kitchenette is ideal for rustling up light bites like bruschetta – for hearty dinners, try one of the delicious eateries on your doorstep. Later, open a bottle of Pignoletto – the area's famous sparkling wine – and sprawl out on the cushy sofa for a refreshing nightcap before climbing into the comfortable bed for some well-deserved shut-eye.

Eco Chic XV

Cafetiere

From this chic, industrial-style apartment, it’s just a seven-minute stroll to Piazza Maggiore; Bologna’s main historic square where palazzos have stood since the 13th century. Winding your way through the narrow medieval streets of the Old Town around you, you’ll find cafés and restaurants spilling out beneath ancient porticos and food markets selling fresh, local produce – you’re in Italy’s gastronomic capital after all.

Once you’ve filled up on tortelloni and mortadella, head back to your quiet city bolthole to enjoy an espresso at the sleek breakfast bar. Slate-grey and ink-black dominate the decor, with industrial touches like cage lamps and silver cogs on display. Though your apartment is a sleek world of modern monochrome, you just have to glance out the bedroom windows to remind yourself you’re ensconced in a rose-hued medieval old town. 

The Industrialist XVI

Give Italian loft living a whirl at this achingly cool city bolthole, set right in the historic heart of Bologna. Housed in a 17th-century Renaissance palazzo, you can tell a team of award-winning architects has been working their magic here. The designers have cleverly made use of those high ceilings with a mezzanine level, where you'll find the super-sleek bedroom. While back downstairs, you'll be surprised how well-equipped the compact kitchen is, with a breakfast bar space to savour freshly brewed coffees as you hatch plans for the day ahead. 

And when it's time to delve into this city's historic streets, you won't have far to go. Fontana del Nettuni and the main square, Piazza Maggiore, are just an eight-minute walk away and a smidge further, the city's leaning towers (ten minutes on foot). Then dive into one of the countless trattorias close by for plates of the city's beloved ragù, tortellini, and mortadella (all the gastro greats hail from here). Or grab pizza al taglio and gelatos on the go – all washed down with a glass of Pignoletto. They nicknamed this city La Grassa (the fat one) for good reason, folks.

Archistar's Masterpiece I

For New York warehouse vibes in the heart of Bologna, this stylish one-bedroom apartment is the complete package. Located on a quiet street parallel to Via dell'Indipendenza, the home is a five-minute walk from the city's main square, the famous two towers and the city's many belt-busting restaurants – specialising in cured meats, salty cheeses and handmade pasta dishes.

On entering the apartment, you'll be greeted by stylish industrial lighting, speckled terrazzo flooring and a pared-back white and a black colour scheme. The kitchen and seating area share an open layout, with a soaring five-metre-high ceiling providing a glimpse of the mezzanine level above.

Head up the stairs, and you'll find a pleasingly minimalist sleeping space that's designed to help to help you declutter your mind before bed. What's more, with the window opening on the entrance level, the bedroom is quieter than you would expect, given its city centre location.

Archistar's Masterpiece XIX

Ironing Board

Balcony

Taking inspiration from Motor Valley, this dapper apartment is a stylish place to call home. With its automotive wallpaper, midnight blue kitchen and lavish rainfall shower, there's no denying that every inch is sleek, sophisticated and super contemporary – but the scenes from the balcony are anything but. A former palace, the view of the building's tangerine-coloured internal courtyard is old-world at its best – what a delightful contrast to the glossy finishes inside. Although there's nowhere to sit on the balcony, we still think it's an excellent spot to savour a glass of Pignoletto in the Italian sunshine. 

You also couldn't be better located, with Piazza Maggiore, the Two Towers and Fontana del Nettuno all less than a ten-minute walk away. Spend afternoons wandering Bologna's historic lanes in search of independent shops, tucked-away trattorias and local markets. Evenings, however, are best enjoyed wining and dining alfresco at the array of excellent restaurants nearby. Sounds like the perfect getaway to us.

Motor Valley XXVIII

Behind the grand period façade of this oh-so-central, loft-style apartment lies a contemporary lover's dream. The 17th-century Renaissance building has been expertly reimagined by a team of architects into a luxurious modern retreat with signature furniture pieces from a list of designers that reads like an A to Z.

Kick start your day with freshly-brewed coffees as you peer out at the classically-Italian terracotta facades outside – it's just as you'd imagined. Then get together for lazy breakfasts in the atmospheric dining area beneath those lofty ceilings – there's everything you need in the sleek, modern kitchen.

When the historical streets below finally lure you in, the must-see sights are just a short jaunt away. If you're new in town, head to the main square, Piazza Maggiore (just an eight-minute walk away), to get your bearings on the city's medieval grid. Or simply lose yourself to Bologna's colonnaded streets, diving into trattorias for plates of ragù and stumbling upon piazzas to take five in the sunshine with gelatos. We don't know about you, but it all sounds bellissimo to us.

Eco Chic XIV

Check into this stylish apartment, set in a Renaissance palazzo of high and mighty proportions, right in the heart of Bologna. Once home to the bourgeois society of the 17th century, the former palace has been renovated into a portfolio of sleek city boltholes by a team of award-winning architects, and doesn't it show.

Expect high-spec finishes, signature furniture pieces from a list of designers that reads like an A to Z, and don't get us started on the glorious terrazzo flooring, which unites the space and brings a pop of colour. 

In the slick, modern kitchen, there's everything you need to brew morning coffees or rustle up aperitifs. While over in the bedrooms, you'll love the double-height ceilings with windows peering out to the iconic terracotta facades and wooden shutters of the city outside.

And you won't have far to go when it's time to soak up the local culture. Take your pick from buzzy cafes for colazione (think buttery crostata tarts and proper cappuccinos), charming trattorias for plates of the city's beloved ragù, and pizza al taglio kiosks for something on the go – you name it, you're near it. Historic sights like Fontana del Nettuni and the main square, Piazza Maggiore, are just an eight-minute walk away, and a smidge further, the city's leaning towers (ten minutes on foot). Meanwhile, high roller shoppers can shop till they drop in Galleria Cavour, Bologna's luxury boutique street (eleven minutes on foot).

As you approach this Renaissance-era building and step through the impressive cross-vaulted entrance, you might have a certain idea of what the apartment looks like and we're willing to bet that it's slightly different to the reality.

Designed by renowned local architectural firm Iosa Ghini Associati, the interior is firmly contemporary in style, with monochrome walls, bare wooden floorboards and a glass fireplace. The large kitchen and bathroom are full of subtle lighting and sleek surfaces, but the home's real standout feature is the Jacuzzi built into the floor, which provides a unique spot in which to relax after a long day of walking around the city. 

Another great thing about the apartment is that many of Bologna's best attractions are a short walk away. The Museo Civico Medievale is a mere three-minute stroll from the front door, while the famous Two Towers and their viewing platforms are only ten minutes away.

Leva's Lamp XXV

Impeccable contemporary design meets 17th-century palazzo grandeur at this loft-style apartment set right in the beating heart of Bologna's historical centre.

A former Renaissance palace left to ruin –⁠ a team of award-winning architects has expertly reimagined the building to create a portfolio of sleek city boltholes united by high-spec finishes, statement lighting, and one-off artwork. 

There's plenty of space to spill out and make yourself at home inside this apartment. Set out over three floors, each bedroom has a separate bathroom, and the two dining areas could easily double as a quiet desk space if you plan to work while in the city. 

When thoughts turn to food, get together in the sociable kitchen and dining area – with views of the oh-so-Italian terracotta facades outside, it's an atmospheric place to enjoy a lazy breakfast. Or head out instead – there are countless cafes to grab colazione (think buttery crostata tarts and proper cappuccinos) and, if it's later in the day, authentic trattorias for plates of the city's beloved ragù. Then head for the sights of Fontana del Nettuni and the main square, Piazza Maggiore – you'll be there in eight minutes flat.  

Archistar's Masterpiece VII

This bold spot sits in total contrast to its surroundings. In the heart of Bologna’s medieval old town, it’s surrounded by rose-hued ancient buildings with terracotta roofs. A seven-minute stroll sees you at Piazza Maggiore, the city’s main square flanked by 13th-century palazzos. In the streets around the apartment, you’ll find endless family-run trattoria serving tagliatelle al ragu (the original spaghetti bolognese), wine bars serving local charcuterie boards and fresh food markets galore.

Load up on produce and head back to your bold city bolthole. There’s a compact kitchen for cooking and a breakfast bar for dining. But it’s the decor that really caught our attention. Canary-yellow and navy-blue patterns reminiscent of 1980s kids' TV programs adorn the wall behind the big bed, and lamps and light fittings have been curated to match this quirky touch. 

Bolidist XVII

This snug studio may be pocket-sized, but what it lacks in space, it more than makes up for in style. Skylights in the eaves, a rainfall shower in the bathroom, a compact yet contemporary kitchen fit for rustling up light bites – it's got everything you'll need for a chic getaway. We love the pink sofa, where you can kick back after a long day on your feet with a glass of Italy's best wine, as well as the comfortable bed, where you can snuggle up for a restful night's sleep. It's situated on the top floor of a former palace, so although the flat is super modern, the communal hallways and exterior radiate old-world charm.

Right in the beating heart of Bologna, the location is as perfect as can be. Exploring on foot is easy from this central spot – first, stroll over to the famous Two Towers eleven minutes away before grabbing an espresso at the cafes in Piazza Maggiore. After lunch, browse the halls and galleries at the many museums in town, then end the evening with a delicious dinner and a nightcap at the array of restaurants, bars and eateries on your doorstep. 

Modern Studio

Situated in the heart of Bologna, just over a five-minute walk from Piazza Maggiore and the famous Two Towers, this home, housed in a historic building, has a fantastic location.

For culture lovers, the Morandi Museum, dedicated to the painter Giorgio Morandi, is just over a twenty-minute stroll. The Fiera District is a twenty-minute ride if you're here for work, while the University District is sixteen minutes on foot.

Then take in the views over the neighbourhood from the window with a glass of wine. This place is perfect for a business professional, couple, or solo traveller looking for a bolthole in this beguiling city.

Inside, it's evident that a lot of care has gone into recreating the industrial-inspired design, aided by beautiful terrazzo flooring, sky-high ceilings and large illuminating windows. The open layout gives a feeling of separation between the spaces thanks to rooms that spider off the main lounge space.

Climb up to the mezzanine level, where you'll find a peaceful sanctuary removed from the living area below. Its clutter-free design and monochrome colour palette are designed to help you drift off in no time.

The Industrialist VIII

You'll find this studio apartment in the heart of Bologna. Although the outside of this former palace has old-world charm in spades, this flat's interior is all about those sleek, 21st-century touches. We're talking a luxe rainfall shower in the marbled bathroom, a compact, smartly-designed kitchen with a coffee capsule machine and quirky mechanic-inspired wallpaper behind the comfortable bed. It's a snug, somewhat dark space, we're not going to lie, but it's stylish – and if that's not enough to tempt you, the location sure will.

You're smack-dab in the centre of it all, just an eight-minute walk from Piazza Maggiore. The city is at your fingertips, so spend your days here museum hopping, sightseeing and wandering the cobblestone streets in search of hidden gems. Excellent eateries are on your doorstep, too –  whether you fancy pasta and gelato or aperitivo alfresco at the chic wine bars nearby, there's something to whet everyone's appetite.

Lying within the verdant hillsides just outside of Bologna, this stone and plaster villa might look rustic on the outside but don't be deceived – this is a home for those that appreciate the finer things in life.

You only have to look at the large and colourful garden to see what we mean. Sitting in the middle is a swimming pool sure to be appreciated on hot summer afternoons, neighboured by loungers and not just one, but two hot tubs. Come dinner time, the alfresco table under the pergola is a wonderful spot for feasting while the sun goes down overhead.

The interior design lies on the contemporary side of things, with a soothingly bright colour palette, a chic taste in furnishings and a minimalist kitchen heavy on sleek surfaces. We have especially kind words for the bedroom suites, which have a refined elegance more typically seen in high-end hotels.

But wait, there's more. The villa sits within a large estate which has a wealth of communal amenities that guests can take advantage of, ranging from three restaurants and seven outdoor pools to opportunities for wine tasting in the cellar. The distinctive architecture and cultural institutions of Bologna are only 22km away, too.
