3 rooms apartment of 130m² in Bologna

Apartment - Via Guerrazzi - Bologna Charming apartment of about 130 sqm, located in a historic building in the heart of Bologna, a short walk from the University of Bologna and Piazza Santo Stefano, one of the most beautiful squares in Italy. Guests have access to a fully equipped kitchen and are provided with bed linens and towels. Upon arrival, our staff will be waiting at the apartment to explain how everything works and to hand over the keys. During your stay, our staff is available to address any requests or concerns. The first architectural element to catch the eye of the guests is the magnificent walnut double door, with carved lintel, which grants access to the apartment. The entrance leads directly into the beautiful dining room, whose walls are decorated with old wood panelling in solid walnut or finished, like the rest of the apartment, with Venetian plaster in shades of cream. The resulting combination creates an extremely warm and welcoming atmosphere, a place to relax or work in peace. The dining room is undoubtedly dominated by a magnificent table from the 19th century, engraved with floral motives and able to accommodate up to 6 people. The rich golden mirrors on the walls, made with the ancient technique of mercury, are in the typical liberty style, while the large chest of drawers behind the table dates back to the 17th century. The bookcase placed in front of the table contains a flat-screen tv 52" (with 3D glasses provided) and the control centre of the audio system of the apartment (aux cable connection), which is equipped with amplifiers in each room. The spectacular swivel design lamp can be used to shed light both on the table and in the living room. The real living area lies behind the dining room and consists of a valuable sofa Roche Bobois (it converts into a comfortable double bed 200 x 160 cm). Next to it you can find a wonderful Florentine trumeau dated 1715, which proposes a mix of past and future that characterizes the whole property. Right next to this relaxation corner, there is the impressive kitchen. It is a wonderful kitchen designed by Archeo, fully equipped and provided with every tool, including a Nespresso coffee machine. The cooking area that stands out since it is made of a composite smooth white material, is longer than 3.5 meter and it allows you to indulge in the preparation of many different recipes. This kitchen is a real must for fans of the kitchen who visit the capital of Emilia. Access to the sleeping area is granted by a corridor leading to the rooms. The apartment has two bedrooms. The guest room is furnished with two single beds (which can be joined to form a double bed) and a custom-made walk-in closet. In the master bedroom, in front of the double bed, finished in white leather, there is an impressive wardrobe from the 17th century in Piedmont style. It is a real work of art, which belonged to a noble family and made according to the style of the fashions of the time. In particular, the brass handcrafted hinges also reflect the quality of craftsmanship made in Italy today. The master bedroom has an ensuite bathroom furnished with Murano chandeliers and handmade pottery by Etruria. Also the second bathroom has the same finishings and, like the first, has a large shower. The apartment is suitable for people who want to pamper themselves with every comfort. The finishings are top level, as the brand new wooden anti-noise and anti-thermal shutters, or (hidden) of the floors, made of Carrara marble, or even the presence of very silent air conditioning splits in every room.
