The Space:

The Neighborhood:

Located on Via dell'Indipendenza, this apartment places you right in the beating heart of Bologna. Via Indipendenza is the city's most iconic and elegant thoroughfare—connecting the Central Station to Piazza Maggiore, and lined with Bologna’s characteristic porticoes, stylish boutiques, traditional cafés, and vibrant restaurants.



Staying here means being just steps away from everything: the Two Towers, the university district, the opera house, and countless cultural landmarks are all within easy walking distance. Whether you're here for a weekend getaway or a longer stay, the area offers the perfect mix of history, convenience, and atmosphere.



Despite its central location, the apartment offers a quiet retreat above the lively street, letting you enjoy the rhythm of the city while still having your own peaceful and comfortable space. This is Bologna at its most authentic—walkable, historic, and full of life.



Getting Around:

The apartment is ideally located just a 5-minute walk from Bologna Centrale train station, the city’s main transport hub. From here, high-speed trains connect you quickly to Florence (35 minutes), Milan (1 hour), Rome (2 hours), and other major Italian cities—making it a perfect base for day trips or multi-city itineraries.

Most of Bologna’s historic landmarks are easily reachable on foot: Piazza Maggiore, the Two Towers, the University district, the Opera House, and dozens of museums, shops, and restaurants are all just a short stroll away. The area is also served by multiple bus lines that stop along Via Indipendenza, offering fast and direct access to destinations like the Fiera (Trade Fair district), Sant'Orsola and Maggiore hospitals, and outlying neighborhoods.

For even more flexibility, bike-sharing and electric scooters are readily available right outside the building. Taxis are easy to find—though you likely won’t need a car to enjoy the city. Bologna’s compact, walkable layout and excellent public transport make getting around both easy and enjoyable.
