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.
