HOUSE Cavour 24 In the heart of Downtown Parma

Everything Amazing!!

Nothing.

The location was PERFECT … could not have been better. Apartment was spacious and tastefully decorated with a skylight view the baptistery.

Super modern & clean apartment in the heart of Parma. There’s a private elevator to access the property. Great views from the bedroom across the city. Good recommendations for places to eat and the owner was really good at keeping in touch and checking that everything was ok.

Nothing to dislike!

Central. Nicely decorated.

We enjoyed the stay in Parma so much! The city is so relaxed and beautiful at the same time. The apartment is perfect: Right in one of the main streets in Parma's old town and still very cozy & quiet. The apartment has everything one needs for a shorter or longer stay. We cooked everyday, there is a small dishwasher and also a well-functioning washing machine with many programs. Francesca is super friendly and always available in case of questions.

The bed consists of two very big and one flat pillow. We are both used to sleeping on flat pillows... It would be great to have two big and two flat pillows so everyone can choose the pillow they like. Furthermore we missed a longer sharpe knife for cutting bread. You see, if these are the only "negative" points the apartment must have been nearly perfect :)

Location: Perfect location on high end shopping street close to the Duomo and the Pilazzo della Pilotta, cafes and restaurants steps away but no noise up above in our apartment. Old building but functional. Loved this city, lots to do, authentic Italian feel. Layout: Three floors above the street level, accessed by a modern, quiet and slow moving lift. The kitchen and living room are together with dining table and comfortable sofa. Sloping roof in bedroom, a bit tight at foot of bed, but room enough. The bathroom was compact but perfectly equipped, also has a well functioning washing machine. Furnishings: Modern styling, clean and comfortable. The apartment was a cosy nest above the bustling city with a skylight view of the tops of the Battistero and Duomo tower. The only windows (except for kitchen windows onto lift well) are the sloping ceiling skylights but very enjoyable looking up at the sky. We would certainly stay here again.

It is difficult to find anything. My partner would have liked bedside tables with reading light but hey it’s delightfully compact and compromises need to be made.

The host was the best we have met. She booked garage for our car and cared enough to help us book a taxi to the garage upon check out as it was raining heavily. We felt very taken care of.

pillows were a little too soft for us.

I liked everything!! Beautiful apartment in the heart of lovely Parma. Couldn't be more central. Just 20 minutes away from the airport by bus. Shops, cafes and all the attractions around. The apartment is amazing with a landmark view <3 Top notch cleanliness.. everything smelled so nice!! (bedding, towels) Lovely host who met us on time and gave us the keys and showed us the house. Really really recommend! 10+++

Nothing.

We had a 2-night stay at this property. The host, Francesca was exceptionally helpful, friendly and accommodating. She also responded promptly to my queries via booking.com chat for how to get to the apartment, where to find parking, etc. Check in was a breeze, Riad whom I believe is Francesca's colleague, was waiting for me when I arrived. We had problem with the radiator on the first night, I asked Francesca for help the next morning and Riad came by within half hour to sort out the problem. The place was lovely, just nice for a family of 3 like us, the whole apartment is just how it looks in the featured photos. The location is superb! Out from the main door, there's a café right in front, a gelateria right next door, which we could smell them making waffle cones from the building. Fashion boutique Mango is next to the café and Zara is 200 steps from the apartment, I literally counted! Its central location allowed us to pop by after shopping to drop off our bags and use the bathroom then continued on, loved that! On the day when we were supposed to check out, my daughter had food poisoning the night before and she was up sick all night. When I asked for a late check out, Francesca was so understanding and accommodating that she extended our stay till evening. We had a great time in Parma, and if we do return to Parma, we'd come back to Maison del Ducato, or maybe try out Francesca's other properties.

I just didn't like that our stay was too short.
