- Royce (10/5): -
- Clodagh (7/5): -
- Maria Lucia (10/5): -
- Giovanni (8/5): - Casa accogliente e in una posizione perfetta. C'è stato un problema con l'acqua calda. L'Host si è messo a disposizione per sistemare il tutto ma abbiamo preferito rimandare poiché era domenica e volevamo rilassarci.
- Celine (9/5): Beautiful flat with serene garden space - we will return! - Lovely apartment in a great location with exceptional character, comfortable bed and small garden area. Old fashioned bathtub/shower isn't easy to use as a shower.
- PPERE (10/5): Our favorite in Bologna, this was our second time there and maybe we come again next year. - There are two excellent restaurants just across the street. Location is quiet.
- Tamara (8/5): Beautiful apartment in beautiful Bologna!!!! - As others mentioned, Vittorio our host was wonderful. He was amazing with communication prior and during our stay if we had any questions or concerns. He helped us with suggestions for storing our luggage (right around the corner) as we had an early flight, arranging a second set of keys etc.. He also provided us recommendations for restaurants which was very nice. Having a kitchen was wonderful as I love to cook and going to local grocery stores and putting together meals with local ingredients was very fun. The outdoor seating area was beautiful and a highlight. We too would have liked a stand up shower but it was not a deal breaker.
- Anna (10/5): the best option we found in Bologna, huge apartment with a rooftop garden - It was the best possible option to book in Bologna and I'm looking forward to booking it again. The apartment is huge: large living room, bedroom plus wide wardrobe, bathroom with BATH, reading room and, of course, rooftop garden.The host was very nice, he recommended us several places to eat and our arrival was smooth.
- Guillaume (8/5): Great and classy place, greatly located. Few minor improvements would be welcome. - Classy and authentic place, amazing terrace, and great communication with Vittorio the host. Warm feeling. The place is not in a perfect state of renovation, the bathtub is pretty bad for example, it's a cheap old plastic thing. There can be some noise from neighbours.
The TV streaming platforms are not usable (logged in by owner?).
- beretta (10/5): Un piccolo gioiello nel cuore di Bologna - Uno splendido alloggio nel centro di Bologna. Posizione comoda in un quartiere centrale e tranquillo. Appartamento arredato con cura, ben equipaggiato e molto silenzioso, con un delizioso giardinetto. Vittorio, il proprietario, è stato molto gentile e disponibile. A pochi passi un minimarket, ristoranti e negozi, oltre che le principali attrazioni di Bologna. Essere rimasti una sola notte!
- Cristina (10/5): Magnifique ville magnifique location. - L'appartemenr est magnifique plein de space terriblement calme bien que situé au centre de Bologne,un vrai plaisir de descendre dans la rue et de se trouver proche de tout, Le mobilier et la deco est coszy et l'exterieur un havre de paix bienvenu.
Nous avons apprecie l'accueil de l'hote et la facilité a communiquer avec lui, ainsi que ses bons conseils.
- Maria (10/5): - Ήταν πάρα πολυ όμορφο σε πολυ καλη τοποθεσία! Ο ιδιοκτήτης Vittorio ηταν πολυ φιλόξενος και μας έδωσε πολυ ωραίες προτάσεις για φαγητό και αξιοθέατα. Το προτείνω ανεπιφύλακτα!!
- ZHEN (10/5): -
- Simone (10/5): -
- Callari (8/5): - Ambiente molto stiloso Solo perdeva un po' la vasca nel bagno
- Sofia (10/5): - Bra läge och uteplats och snabb smidig incheckning Inget
- Margarita (9/5): - Apartamento muy céntrico, tranquilo y con buena calefacción. Terraza muy agradable para disfrutar cuando haga buen tiempo. Es muy incomoda la bañera para ducharse porque no hay cortina y se llena el suelo del baño de agua.
- Manuela (1/5): Pessima esperienza - Le uniche due cose belle sono l’estetica della casa e la posizione Casa sporca, riscaldamento spento e senza possibilità di accenderlo, brioches e marmellate per la colazione tutte scadute da anni, neanche una bottiglietta d’acqua, sciacquone non funzionante, acqua calda lentissima ad uscire.
Detto questo vorrei soffermarmi sul padrone di casa che è stato maleducato, LADRO ed inopportuno: mi ha RUBATO 178€ per una cancellazione ERRATA, ha smesso di rispondere al cellulare e non ha voluto dare spiegazioni né a me né a Booking. Mi sono ritrovata ad aver pagato UNA notte 278€ nonostante io abbia spiegato e rispiegato la situazione, lui ha deciso di non rimborsarmi i soldi e di SPARIRE completamente. Esperienza nel complesso PESSIMA e veramente demoralizzante, non mi era MAI successo prima.

- Sofia (10/5): Spacious and cosy - I loved how beautiful, spacious, clean and comfortable is the apartment! Can’t wait to stay there again :) everything was excellent
- Anne Marit (10/5): Et meget godt valg , anbefales. - Nydelig leilighet, super beliggenhet, sentralvarme gjorde at det var lunt og godt selv om det var kjølig ute.
- Miriam (10/5): - La posizione super centrale, il giardino interno, l'arredamento curatissimo.
- Enrico (10/5): - Cordialità del proprietario, lo stile dell’appartamento, la dimensione di esso e dov’è collocato. Semplicemente perfetto.
- Marielle (9/5): -
- terese (10/5): -
- Hilde (10/5): Prachtig appartement op de perfecte locatie, zo’n 6 minuten stappen van de Piaggio Magiore. - Prachtig appartement met alle nodige voorzieningen.
Vittorio is een perfecte gastheer, hij heeft ons persoonlijk verwelkomd en gaf wat (restaurant)tips.
Het appartement heeft een prachtig en rustig gelegen terras waar het fijn vertoeven was. Niets, alles was perfect
- Sam (8/5): Spacious, Green garden and a little historic style - The location is great ! Also, the apartment also has a wonderful roof top garden. The owner came in person to help with early check in. I can't exactly say. I felt like living in a historic area. A little uneasiness and uncomfortable feeling. I may have gotten used to the European-style modern apartment 😅😅
- Darwin Boy Sxander (10/5): - The unit is very huge, centrally located, clean, and also cool in the summer. I have to say everything is amazing
- Joshua (10/5): -
- George (10/5): -
- Sebastian (10/5): Great Appartement in nice location - Special and very good Appartement in perfect spot. We had a great time there for five nights and would book it again. It was not so easy to take a shower since there only is a bathtub and no showerhead attachment.
- Sophia (8/5): Very good -
- Harald (10/5): Amazing - Amazing location, feels like we were living in a museum. Smells amazing. Shower curtains.
- Jens (9/5): Superb -
- Roger (9/5): We love Bologna - Location location location. Absolutely perfect. For two people, the apartment is like having a suite in a Grande Hotel
- Ryan (10/5): Superb location, excellent host, beautiful apartment. - Everything Nothing at all
- Manuela (8/5): Very good -
- Lyle (10/5): Exceptional -
- Lyle (10/5): Exceptional -
- Vittoria (10/5): Exceptional -
- Vilius (10/5): Exceptional - Spacious and fancy apartment. Perfect for a couple
- Noreen (9/5): We really enjoyed our stay in the Rooftop Garden and hope to return in the future. - The place was amazing! The decor, the comfy bed, the very central location, the apartment was so quiet and peaceful. Spotlessly clean. Very attentive host. I would have preferred a proper shower to a bath.
- Martin (10/5): Exceptional place to stay - The apartment was beautiful with marble floors and all the amenities needed. The outdoor seating area was very pleasant. The location couldn’t be better. Short walk to the center and most attractions. Very quiet. Our host, Vittorio, was exceptional. He was responsive and very helpful with a few problems we had during our stay. I highly recommend this property for a stay in Bologna. Nothing.
- Christina (10/5): An unforgettable stay in a stunning house - An incredibly beautiful house—you can't imagine how stunning it is until you see it yourself. The host was exceptional, very helpful and friendly, making us feel right at home. The little outdoor space was perfect for breakfast, so peaceful and beautiful. Highly recommend for a delightful stay! Everything was perfect. Great attention to detail.
- James (9/5): Superb -
- Amanda (10/5): If you want location, a spacious apartment with a cute garden patio, and a friendly & helpful host, this is your pic - This apartment was in a great location, walking distance to Bologna’s cafes, restaurants and culture. Plenty of room to spread out here as well.
I would also like to mention, our host was extremely helpful with all his local recommendations, and even ordered us a taxi when we were struggling to use the local taxi app. He definitely went above and beyond with his hospitality. It wasn’t a big deal, but there is no shower, just a bath with a shower hose. Would be perfect if a shower head and curtain was installed as well.
- Marion (10/5): Wonderful accommodation in a very central location - We fell in love with this place and everything in it! The smell in the apartment as you entered was so lovely, the decor was old but arty, and we wished we could have stayed longer. The rooftop garden was the icing on the cake!!! Vittorio was an exemplary host who was very helpful before we even arrived. The location is perfect for central Bologna shopping, sight seeing, amazing food and more. Its close to the train station and only 20-25 minutes to the airport (traffic dependant of course). We will definitely go back when we visit our new favourite city! Ps, it has a great hairdryer!!! The lack of a shower! A bath is mentioned in the description, but it is quite deep, and even though we are fit, it was a bit of a struggle to get out of as there are no handles to help you. There is a shower head but keeping the spray inside the bath is a bit tricky!
- Mihail (10/5): Do not miss it. - Very clean and spacious. I was happy.
- Xiao (10/5): Perfect - Everything is perfect! We will come back definitely!
- Fakes (10/5): Exceptional - Everything was perfect. From the owner to the location
Just instal a shower gard to prevent splashing all over:) .
- Daijie (10/5): A great stay - The location was perfect. Close to everything. The host was very friendly and helpful.
A very spacious room with great decor.
- Leslie (10/5): The perfect place to stay! - Everything was absolutely perfect! The apartment is gorgeous. The outdoor space is lovely and very relaxing. The location is very central and Vittorio was an amazing host. Bologna was our favorite city and this was the best place ever!
- Lisa (10/5): Exceptional - Live the Bologna experience in a wonderful home in a great location. Faultless property with a superb host.
- Iain (10/5): Wonderful - Great central location but quiet. Really beautifully decorated providing a unique stay in Bologna. Host was very helpful with recommendations for restaurants and sight seeing. Nothing
- Simon (10/5): Wonderful stay, great host & location, loved the peace and the outdoor area. - This is a fabulous property and very quiet inside. The outdoor area is lovely and peaceful being an internet courtyard. Vettorio is the most helpful host and has much local information to pass on to guests. This house is well worth a stay whilst in Bologna.
- Sharon (10/5): Exceptional -
- Lorraine (10/5): Stunning apartment with a wonderful host. - Great location and a gem of a find. The host was helpful and friendly and shared his knowledge of Bologna. The apartment is 5 stars. Nothing
- Linda (10/5): Perfect location, great host, beautiful apartment. - Lovely to be met by the host and handed the keys. We were given recommendations for restaurants and advised that reservations are required, without this advice we would have struggled.
- Anna (10/5): The food, the views, the stay were all great. - Wonderful property with gorgeous decor. Right in the heart of Bologna. The host, Vittorio is wonderful. The shower/bath situation wasn’t great.
- Julia (8/5): Relaxing and comfortable - Perfect location - very central.
Comfortable bed (after topper added) and nice bed linen and duvet. It’s a firm bed.
Very peaceful at night. We slept really well.
Nice and calm to return to after a day out.
Lovely to have the roof terrace to use.
Responsive and welcoming manager/owner. There were a few little niggles which I raised with the manager/owner. A lack of sink plugs. No iron despite there being an ironing board. The bath and shower arrangement is not good. The bath is very small and narrow. The jacuzzi doesn’t work and the fittings have seen better days. There is only a hand-held shower attachment with no wall fitting or curtain so the floor gets wet and slippery. It is really inconvenient. I see that lots of guests have raised this but there have been no changes. I think it should be highlighted in the description too.
- Mary (10/5): Our host, Vittorio, was absolutely charming and he went out his way to be very accommodating and helpful. Would thorough - Fabulous apartment and lovely garden Would be better with stand alone shower
- Martina (8/5): Very good -
- Ppere (10/5): Exceptional - Excellent location, easier to access than I had anticipated.
- Kelli (10/5): Excellent stay. Would stay again. - Great apartment and great location. Bed was comfortable. Host was very helpful and responsive. Would stay again! It would be nice if there was a way to hang the shower head to take a shower without holding it. Also recommend adding a shower current. However, if you like taking a bath, no problem.
- James (9/5): Charming Stay. - Apartment was spacious,clean,well furnished and finished to a high standard.
Host very friendly, helpful and very good attitude. NO. Complaints.
- Natasha (10/5): The host was amazing and very knowledgeable- gave lots of recommendations , the property’s location is fantastic and ove - The property was lovely and amazing location! I would definitely recommend staying here .
- Tomasz (10/5): Great place in the centre of Bologna - Beautiful, clean and comfy apartment located in the city centre, close to Piazza Maggiore. Owner was very accommodating - handed us the keys and gave us a tour even though our flight was heavily delayed.
- Gayle (8/5): Very good - We loved this sweet and comfortable apartment. Beautfully decorated and had everything we needed. Fully equipped kitchen. Great garden terrace. It was clean and comfortable. Vittero was so supportive and helpful, which was wonderful. If we go back, we will definitely stay here. The location was close to everything. The only thing was the bathtub. We know it had a bathtub and no stand-up shower. However, the bathtub is small and not really user-friendly.
- Adeeb (10/5): Clean, spacious apartment near the city centre - A fabulous flat, spacious, high standard, and very clean in the centre of the city. And has a cosy roof garden. What more could one ask for? Nothing.
- Giacomo (8/5): Very good - The location is great, very central and comfortable to get around. The apartment is pretty and stylish, with a nice outdoor patio. The tub is not very comfortable, a shower would be definitely better.
- Gabriel (10/5): Exceptional - Everything was perfect
- Corinne (10/5): Exceptional -
- Doug (10/5): Exceptional -
- Judy (9/5): Beautifully decorated and perfectly located to see the sights of Bolgna. - The size of the apartment far exceeded our expectations. Loved the rooftop garden, where we sat and had evening drinks, until the mosquitoes sent us inside. The apartment was beautifully decorated - which added to the charm of it. It was a little distance from the station, but we walked it in 20-25 minutes which was fine. However, it was perfectly located to easily explore the sights of the Bolgna. To be ultra critical, the lack of the ability to shower - but we managed to stand in the bath and hold the hand shower without making too much mess!
- Darya (10/5): Exceptional - We loved the location and how charming the apartment was. It was very peaceful and we thoroughly enjoyed the outside sitting area. So close to all attractions, it was wonderful. The only thing that we wish it had was a stand up shower.
- Michelle (10/5): Had a very short stay at Vittorio’s rooftop garden apartment. I wish it could have been longer - The owner was fantastic helpful and responsive Nothing of note
- Kyna (9/5): Superb -
- Arnold (4/5): Never again - Positiv:
- great location in the Center of Old City
- very clean
- Quality material and appliances including Nespresso machine and capsules
- Owner reacted promptly and fixed drainage of bathtub (did not open anymore) Negative:
- Roomsize and windows of bedroom. Windows need to be closed all the time as they are facing the neighboring terrase
- same counts for second room with sofa, see before
- Neighbores were very loud, arguing and rummaging until 11pm, could not sleep
- Whirpool seems not to work for years, rather bad condition and pool outlets with green patina
- sofa has seen better times years ago
- rooftop is on 1st floor, entirely enclosed by anothe 2 stories with flats
- rooftop separated for 3 parties, 1 renter has a dog, barking with every step outside
- no shelf if it is raining, canvas over steel pergola could help
- garden seats made of grid-steel - no pillows existing for comfort
- until midnight TV was running very loud 2 flats above
- travveling by car and looking for parking is `a pain in the neck`. Unloading luggage at entrance not possible. Appartment does not offer parking
Summary: Not to recommend and price/quality ratio of € 150.00 per night is way to high
- Richard (9/5): lovely little hidden gem - Vittorio was great at communication, met us at the apartment to check in and show us around. Recommended a great little restaurant which we booked and really enjoyed.
Lovely apartment, lovely little garden for morning coffee of evening wine. Quiet location, however round the corner from the main square.
lovely and clean, sorry we couldn't stay longer. shower is on the side of the bath and you can't stand to use it.
- Joanne (10/5): Wonderful apartment & location for exploring Bologna. - The apartment was beautiful & fully equipped. One of the nicest apartments that we have stayed in so far in Italy. Our host was very informative & attentive to all of our needs with wonderful restaurant suggestions. Everything was great!
- Nickalas (10/5): Exceptional - This is a true gem very near to the heart of Bologna! The host is incredibly kind and gave us great recommendations for food and activities. We weren’t able to stay more than a day but will definitely choose this place when we go back to Bologna!
- Sheryl (10/5): Amazing location , tastefully decorated apartment - The apartment was beautifully and tastefully decorated. There is a little patio outside. Air conditioner in living area was a bonus as we had days of 38 degrees. Safe and secure apartment in complex with lift. Amazing location, walking distance to many sights including the Arena which is only 5 minutes to walk, great if attending the Opera. Close to supermarkets. Very quiet area despite being close to everything. Vittorio met us at the apartment and suggested some good places to eat away from the tourist traps which were amazing.We would definitely stay at Rooftop Garden again and I would recommend this to anyone wanting a great location at an affordable price. Nothing
- Karen (10/5): Gorgeous apartment in great location - The decor, the fact that it felt like a home, and a stylish one at that. The ability to step out into the garden. Nothing comes to mind. Perhaps the step down to different levels in the apartment.
- Kathryn (10/5): Exceptional - Good location. Quiet. Nice apartment. Excellent contact from host. Shower attachment in bath rather than actual shower
- Sean (10/5): A fabulous trip with a warm welcome and attentive help from Vittorio. A true Super Host - The property gave me a sense of luxury. The decor and ambience made the trip so much more Nothing to note
- Miron (10/5): Exceptional - Really nice and comfortable place in the centre of the city. I’m going to come back there.
Small but pleasant garden.
Silence in the apartment.
- Clarissa (10/5): Amazing stay! Highly recommend - Everything! All perfect!
- Gavin (9/5): Vittorio was a caring host and we enjoyed our stay - Location and the space The bath shower wasn’t enjoyable
- Peter (9/5): Superb -
- Jane (10/5): Fabulous apartment in a wonderful city - What a fabulous property. Very very beautiful. In a top location, close to all the beautiful shops, the historic centre and many fabulous restaurants and bars. Our host Vittorio was wonderful. Allowed us to check in late, was extremely helpful and a delight to deal with Nothing
- Acadaca (10/5): Exceptional apartment in the centre of Bologna - Exceptional apartment in a fantastic location, only a few minutes to Piazza Maggiore and many great restaurants. The apartment is furnished tastefully, elegantly, and comfortably. A very high standard. Victor, the host, was attentive and very helpful. We would definitely book again when back in Bologna Nothing to mention.
- Gino (10/5): Exceptional -
- Klaus (10/5): Exceptional -
- Gwynne (10/5): Exceptional -
- Regina (10/5): Great place! - I liked the interior and spaciousness of the apartment. Everything we needed was there and the location was great. Especially liked that there were many soft pillows in the bed :-) There was also a small lovely garden.
- Kristof (10/5): Perfect stay in a perfect apartment. - The location is fantastic, the host is the most helpful I’ve ever had the opportunity to stay with. The apartment is beautiful, cozy and welcoming. The kitchen is lovely too. There isn’t anything negative I can say.
- Feng-chin (9/5): Highly recommended landlord and good place to stay in Bologna city center! - Bologna roof top garden is one of the good accommodation among our honeymoon in our Italy trip (we visited 7 different cities) Highly recommended if you plan to visit Bologna. Below are the details,
Location:
The accommodation is located in the center of old town where many touring sites/ stores and shopping malls are walkable within 10-15 mins. This saves a lot of money for transportation and super convenient when you did some shopping at street (can always take bags back to hotels without carrying all the time)
Facility:
Clean and elevator is vital especially for long travelers with many luggages. The room is with a garden which is rare for the properties in the area. During our stay, we even saw snows piled up in the garden! Spacious living room with good natural lightings made us very relaxed. Kitchen also good for basic cooking and long dining table is nice and handy.
Landlord
Vittorio was very nice, helpful and recommended many good local restaurants for us to try bistecca, risotto, gelato, pasta and pizzas. Some of the restaurants are low profile on Google yet famous within local people (and taste yummy!) He also helped us to book restaurant/ post office services since our Italian are not so fluent and he was SUPER helpful and responsive!
Thank you Vittorio! We will definitely come back visit next time Bologna! the path from elevator to room still needs few steps which takes a little effort to move luggage but not major issue :)
- Michael (10/5): Exceptional - Wonderful apartment. Clean, well equipped, lovely bedding, charming host. Highly recommended. Five minute walk from Piazza Maggiore.
- Nicole (10/5): Exceptional -
