What our apartments in Bologna city centre are like
No two are the same. Shape, size and mood all change. There are compact studios for solo travellers and couples, and split-level lofts with the bed on a mezzanine. There are also one-bedroom apartments and larger ones with several bedrooms for families and groups. The building has kept its grand cross-vaulted entrance hall, its inner courtyard and its terrazzo and marble floors. The interiors are contemporary, designed to be lived in rather than just admired.
