4 Bedroom Apartment in Historic Center, Bologna

L'ARENA - A most prestigious rental in the heart of the Historical Center
One of the most beautiful rentals in Bologna, a very comfortable, roomy and highly prestigious one, L’Arena apartment is named after the famous Arena Del Sole theatre which sits right across the street. Away from central yet seedy, messy areas such as the train and bus station and the University department, lively and very colorful, animated, this is the best section of the vibrant Historical Center. The classiest stores, restaurants, cafes, the best shopping and the most amusing strolling are all here, under the old arches of Via Indipendenza, the very heart of the Italian capital of youth, nightlife and gourmet cuisine – Bologna.
Hence, the easiness of getting around without any need for a car. The airport shuttle bus is at a stone’s throw, about 10 different bus lines to all the interest points in town and beyond are available at the door, the railroad station is at walking distance and so is Piazza Maggiore, the center of gravity of this stunning Medieval and Renaissance urban beauty.
L’Arena is part of one of the most elegant buildings bordering Via Indipendenza. A third floor (elevator) with a view over the avenue, extremely clean and well kept, it comfortably accommodates up to 9 guests in 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, 1 large living-diningroom, a kitchen with all the tools provided, a hallway and a small terrace. Bedding is as follows:
- Room #1: one queen-size bed and one single;
- Room #2: two singles that can be put together to form a queen-size plus one single sofabed;
- Room #3: two single sofabeds;
- Room #4: one single bed
Furnished with choice antique furniture and craft (1800’s and 1900’s), decorated with love and zest with all the major appliances provided and in perfect working order, air conditioned and with high-speed wifi internet connection, L’Arena stands out for its class, traditional Bolognese style and comfort. It would be hard for you to find a more central and comfortable accommodation, a better spot to fully enjoy the life and the fun of this amazing city.
Other pluses: a large parking lot (garage – guarded) only about 40 mts plenty of all kind of restaurants, pubs and pizzerias in the immediate vicinity (the most renowned restaurant in town is right across the street), Friday and Saturday open-air market in the nearby piazza, (huge, lot of fun!), theatres and movie theatres, monuments, museums, etc. right there for you to enjoy.
Comfort, convenience, class, fun and great relax: these are the key words for L’Arena, a superb place, your nr. 1 home away from home.

Summary: An American family who lived in Europe 2016-2018 rented many apartments in Italy, France and Spain. Also we are owners of a vacation rental in US. The location of the apartment is superb. The apartment is spacious and immaculate. The linens and towels are lovely. I would highly recommend L’Arena to a large group for a shortish stay. It a perfect accommodation . We booked it for 25 days. For that length I would highly recommend new mattresses and more comfortable living room seating.The owners were highly responsive to booking a taxi since the taxi co don’t recognize foreign phone numbers. I have also suggested a binder with suggestions, resources, recommendations and useful information. There are many great restaurants in the immediate area. It is also a fine shopping district. Bologna is a lively, authentic, safe Italian city. The food is incredible. If you are a large group don’t miss out ..stay at L’Arena

Summary: The owners are gracious and kind, the apartment elegant and well maintained. The only downside was the street noise and cigarette smoke wafting up from the street. Bologna is a college town so weekends are noisy.

Summary: Amazing location in Bologna, right on the main shopping street. But noise canceling windows makes it so quiet. Perfect for families or larger groups looking to stay together in a city center - 2 bathrooms and 4 bedrooms. Parking garage outside of the ZTL only a few minute walk away (expensive but worth it if you are driving).

Summary: We chose this property because of its location between Bologna Centrale and Piazza Maggiore. Our plan was to be able to reach the historic center of Bologna but also have access to the train station for day trips to some of the nearby cities particularly Parma and Ravenna. L'Arena is an absolutely beautiful apartment and is convenient to visitors who want to experience the best of Bologna and the surrounding area. We highly recommend staying at L'Arena.

Summary: We loved staying at this property! (There were 8 of us, 3 of whom are children.) The location is SO, SO convenient -- 10 minutes to the train station, 7 minutes to the City Centre. The hosts were outstanding in every way. I had a small medical issue soon after arriving, and they immediately shared helpful information with us. We struggled to get a taxi when our son needed to catch a super early flight home, ditto for us on a later date. The host went above and beyond to reserve the cab and use her number to be alerted of the early morning taxi arrival (3:30 a.m.!!!!) because the taxi company wouldn't accept our contact number. The apartment is spacious and has everyone one needs. And it has AC. We stayed for 28 days! Highly, highly recommend! Thank you for a great stay!
