About this property

The elegance and the details of the three rooms make this apartment the perfect place for a charming stay.
Each bedroom is spacious and has a private bathroom, air conditioning, tv, and dvd player. In each bedroom there is a queensize bed and a single bed (we can host 3 people in each room). The kitchen is equipped and there is a washer and dryer (sorry, but we do not have a dishwasher).
At the end of the day you can relax in the cosy little library or enjoy the night in town! Some of the best restaurants are just steps around the corner, and so are the shops.

A perfect base for our first visit to Bologna

What a wonderful apartment for our group's (3 couples) first visit to Bologna. We always take care to find somewhere central and with character when we take our long weekend breaks and this apartment ticks all the boxes. It was a joy to stay within an historic palace and the facilities were perfect for us. We each had our own spacious ensuite room with fabulous ceilings and made good use of the kitchen for lazy breakfasts and a meal in. Ilaria made us very welcome and responded very quickly when we needed help. We really did appreciate this discreet service. Bologna itself is equally warm and welcoming the food is fabulous and people really care about their food. We had 2 fabulous evening meals in drogadia di rosa - literally just around the corner. We enjoyed exploring Bologna and took a train to Modena to visit the Ferrari museum - well worthwhile. Thanks ilaria for a wonderful stay we would love to come back again soon.

Amazing property in a prime location

This is a truly special property. Located just steps from Piazza Santo Steffano in the heart of historic Bologna, it sits behind a massive medieval door facing onto the street which opens onto a quiet courtyard. After walking past a sweeping staircase with renaissance statues, you come the door to the apartment, entering into the spacious kitchen / dining room. One of the bedrooms opens off this, and the two others open off the large common room / library which connects to this. The ceilings are high and frescoed. Each bedroom has its own comfortable en suite bath (just beware that the water heaters in each have somewhat limited capacity, so be considerate if you are sharing). It is a perfect base from which to explore the city, and is a very quiet retreat when one grows tired from treading through Bologna's endless cobbled alleyways (each corner bringing a postcard vista). The host is fantastic and very communicative. Can't wait to visit again!

Casa Zucchini right in the Bologna Historical Centre

Fantastic historical and expansive and comfortable property in Via Santo Stefano right within walking distance of nearly everything in the grand city of Bologna. We were three couples and all had plenty of room and privacy for our individual needs in the three bedrooms with have ensuite in each. Highly recommended and will definitely return one day when we get back to Bologna. Did not need much contact with owner but met Simone for key handover on first day and he was on time and obliging etc. Only observation is there was no bottle of local Lambrusco in the fridge on arrival !!!

Great Stay

There were five of us as family members with ages from low 30s to 70. There are three bedrooms. It is a lovely large house which allows solitude and togetherness. Beautifully painted high ceilings and very elegant surroundings. Close to public transport and the number of eateries close by is amazing; a great bakery next door to the right, a butcher 100 yards to the left and supermarkets close by. A lovely place to stay!
