This is a wonderful B & B. Huge and lovely rooms, very good breakfast ( pastries made by her mother) wonderful location. Cannot say enough good things about it. Ilaria is most efficient, answering e-mails right away. Everything was perfect including the small library. Wifi available at no cost. More

The place is ideally situated - just a short walk from the city centre, and approx 15/20 mins drive from the airport. The hotel itself is beautiful: the rooms are spacious, have high ceilings, but best of all come complete with frescos - it is a true taste of Italy as you would imagine it. The couple who run the...

This B&B is ideally located. It's not that close to the train (about a 30 minute walk) but I didn't think the area around the train would be that nice to stay, anyway. Instead, it's located right down the street from the Basilica di Santo Stefano, one of the historic sites suggested for tourist visits. It's close to shopping, the... More

The pictures of this B&B really don't do it justice. When you walk into the courtyard from the street your first reaction has to be "wow" unless your regular home is a palace. I stayed in Cesare and my dad stayed in Corneglia. Corneglia has the bigger shower but both rooms are enormous. As typical throughout Europe, the showers are... More

We were so impressed with our 4 day visit last year, that we booked for two weeks this year, so that we could attend a language school (ARCA) located around the corner. Ilaria is a wonderful host and on both occasions has made us feel very welcome. The B&B is beautiful! All three rooms are generous in size - each... More

We really enjoyed our stay at Antica Casa Zucchini. The location is great, It was more like staying in an apartment in a 12th century palazzo. We had rented two rooms -- Cornelia and Guido, which had the sitting room in between them. My husband and I stayed in Cornelia, and it was lovely -- extremely spacious, great bathroom, and... More

This is an elegant b&b in a grand historic building in Bologne just minutes from the University. Our room was enormous, with soaring ceilings and a comfortable four-poster bed. Ilaria Zucchini was a gracious host who made us feel right at home and recommended a wonderful spot for dinner. Her mother makes the delicious preserves to go with breakfast croissants.... More

If you would like to know what is behind those red buildings in Bologna, try staying in Antica Casa Zucchini. This beautiful B&B also serves great breakfast with some delicious home-made items such as jams bread and pies. If you ONLY have 1 day to spend in Bologna, try staying in Antica Casa Zucchini because it is within walking distance... More
