About this property

Santo Stefano Elegant Apartment by Wonderful Italy

  • Splendid apartment with refined and elegant furnishings, located in one of Bologna's most beautiful elegant squares, just a few steps from the Two Towers.



    The apartment, recently renovated and situated on the first floor of a building in the historic centre, features refined furnishings in light tones and is characterised by barrel-vaulted ceilings. The entrance opens onto the living area consisting of a large open-plan space with open kitchen and island, a dining table and a small lounge with sofa and TV.

    The sleeping area comprises two bedrooms with double beds. Two bathrooms, one with shower and one guest bathroom, complete the layout.



    The apartment is located in a ZTL zone, we recommend leaving your car in one of the surrounding car parks and enjoying the historic centre on foot.



    *Upon arrival or a few days before arrival, a tourist tax may be requested, the amount of which varies according to local regulations. You will find all information relating to your booking within the Guest Area of Wonderful Italy.



    Bologna, called the Learned City as it is home to the oldest University in the Western world, the Fat City for its culinary and wine excellence and the Red City for the colour that characterises the historic centre, is a marvellous city of art, culture and commerce. Its soul resides in the medieval historic centre, which is among the most extensive in Europe and rich in taverns, shops and theatres, characterised by almost 40 km of arcades. In the historic centre you will find Piazza Maggiore where the charm of medieval palaces combines perfectly with modernity. Not to be missed are Giambologna's Fountain of Neptune and the Medieval Towers, the Asinelli Tower and the Garisenda Tower, part of a rich cultural heritage preserved in numerous museums, galleries and religious buildings. It is impossible to leave Bologna without having tasted its culinary and wine products, including mortadella, tortellini, ragù alla bolognese accompanied by the well-known DOC wines of the Colli Bolognesi! Rich in exhibitions, fairs and cultural events, Bologna is a city capable of surprising you all year round.



    The central train station is approximately 2 km away whilst the airport can be reached by car in 25 minutes.

Excellent location in Bologna

We had a wonderful stay in this apartment. It's in a beautiful square, Piazza Santo Stefano, which is a delight to spend time in. The apartment is close to all the old city sites and easy walking distance. The bedroom is in the back of the apartment, so it is quiet and comfortable. We enjoyed our stay here very much. Thank you Paula and Wonderful Italy!

Everything we could’ve asked for

Absolutely wonderful. Very easy to get to from water taxi. Wonderful area easy to get to everything just beside the gondola that takes you across the grand Canal. After a day of wandering around, it is great to be able to sit on the patio and watch people go up and down the canal.

Perfect Bologna Apartment

This apartment is perfectly located in a lovely square with great places to have a bite to eat and a beverage! Simply decorated and had everything we needed. Quiet at night and comfortable beds. We would defiantly stay here again. When you check in just get some clear direction on where to dispose of your garbage.

Late delayed checkin was facilitated brilliantly, the accommodation was brilliant and most unexpectedly the location was unbeatable. The square you walk straight out on to was beautiful with the seven churches on the opposite side and a number of bars/restaurants. If I went back to Bologna, i would easily book the same place again. Thanks for a great break!

The perfect place for experiencing Bologna

Location, location, location! Perfectly located in the actual center of Bologna, overlooking Piazza Santo Stefano and the Seven Churches architectural complex. But not only, there's more. The apartment itself is finely decorated with restored original elements, giving it a very pleasant blend of modern decor and historical feeling. We really enjoyed staying at the apartment

Great location

Quiet, near restaurants, excellent location, with modern touches. Stayed 10 days and walked to train station, grocery stores, landmarks, museums, and restaurants.Needed to be more well stocked on paper products and trash bags for a 10 day stay. Also one set of towels for each for that amount of time is insufficient.No kitchen staples by way of ffood except sugar packets.Contacts were quick and efficient with management team.

Review

Very nice apartment in an excellent location. The property staff were very flexible as my arrival kept changing because of travel problems. Luciano was an absolute hero.. As with many older buildings, various problems arose during my stay. Again, staff were very responsive to the immediate situation, but lack of a permanent fix meant I couldn't, for example, use the oven or freezer. Good attention to detail such as comfortable bed and good reading lights.

Fine for two people

Check in was fine. The management company is only available to communicate between 10-6 and during those hours were pretty non responsive. Sp if you have any issues, good luck! There was a plumbing issue that they kept saying could be solved if we didn’t use air conditioning but it was really hot so that wasn’t really an adequate choice. So instead the bathroom was covered in condensation the whole time. They gave limited towels so we couldn’t really soak it up. The bathroom door also dragged on the ground so you couldn’t really close it or else you’d be trapped in the bathroom. Sleeping arrangements were inadequate. We had 4 small flat pillows between the four of us and only 3 had pillow cases. Blankets were this and didn’t cover the bed. The fold out couch they consider the second bedroom was very uncomfortable and there was no reason there wasn’t a proper bed. Ultimately the place was clean but it’s clear they are focused on spending as little as possible on the experience. It’s essentially an empty apartment with one bed, one fold out couch and some pillows on the floor in the living room they call a couch. I think it would be great for one couple because you could use all of the bedding from both rooms which was enough for one bed but two couples is a stretch with the amenities that were available. We ended up moving to a hotel for the second night and again in the process of communicating with the management company, they just stopped responding.

This was a fabulous apartment. Spacious, clean, comfortable, airconditioned and right in the heart of town. Plenty of space for me, my husband and our daughter. Communication was great. The restaurant downstairs was excellent and there were places in the square to have a relaxing afternoon drink and soak in the beautiful setting. We didn't want to leave.

Bologna-WOW

What a find. On the Santo Stefano Square in the heart of the city, up only 1 flight of stairs, very spacious. The food in Bologna is amazing and the archetecture is stunning. A couple of small areas for improvement. The paint in the bathroom is flaking away. The matresses on the floor in the main room should be rep[laced with couches.

beautiful place, ok service

The location and unit are fabulous. The service was prompt and friendly. You need to set up a meeting to enter -- no key code. The unit doesn't have some of the basics (coffee maker was broken, no coffee/salt, no dish towels provided. needed to ask for laundry detergent to be provided although there is machine). Extra charge for more than one set of towels per person for the week.

This apartment is really pretty and perfectly located in the historical center so you can walk to all the sites. The air conditioning was fantastic and there is a ton of space all around! Having 2 bathrooms is super nice and although this unit didn’t have an elevator it’s only 1 flight of stairs so it’s not bad. Allessio was super helpful and even carried our luggage up for us. When we called about how to use the air conditioning he answered right away and solved our problem. Would stay there again and highly recommend!

Very roomy two bedroom apartment. Excellent location right on the piazza Santo Stefano. It's noisy outside at night, but the walls are thick, so as long as the windows are closed, you're in good shape. They have box air conditioners in every room, but they struggle to get the temperature below maybe 22 or 23 degrees (celsius) on hot days. Wifi was good, as were kitchen appliances and dishes, etc.
