La Porta Rossa: elegante e tranquillissimo appartamento nel centro di Bologna

Estuvimos muy a gusto. Giusy y Marco estuvieron atentos en todo momento.

La casa es amplia, muy bien equipada y tiene un garaje cómodo. La situación es ideal, se puede hacer todo a pie.

This was without doubt one of the best apartments we have stayed in. We were visiting Bologna for New Year with friends, so two mature couples, and the apartment was just perfect for us. Not just the location, a few minutes walk from Piazza Maggiore and fifteen minutes walk from the central train station, but the layout with two bathrooms, two double bedrooms, a very well equipped kitchen and a big comfortable lounge with enough soft seating for four of us to relax after a day sightseeing. So many places don't provide enough seating for the number of guests. There is a large sheltered terrace which would be a big bonus in summer. We had great weather and sat out with coffee in January. The apartment was really well thought out with things that made our stay easier: lots of tea and filter coffee, two pizzas in the freezer, a bottle of Prosecco in the fridge, loads of toiletries in the bathroom, hair straighteners and tongs as well as the usual hairdryer, coat hooks and shoe rack by the door, again something many places overlook, washing powder and fabric conditioner alongside the washer and drier and all the cleaning and washing up equipment you could need. The beds were really comfortable with quality bedding and it was surprisingly quiet despite being in the centre of the old town. Guiseppina and Marco were great hosts keeping in touch and making sure everything was perfect for us. They went above and beyond expectations in finding and making a restaurant reservation for New Years Eve which turned out to be the gastronomical highlight of our stay in Bologna. We would definitely stay here again if we return and highly recommend the Red Door. Thank you Giusy and Marco. Happy New Year.

Lovely, clean, large apartment. Great location. Guisy and Marco were very helpful. Would rent again if I were staying in Bologna.

We, with a couple of friends, stayed at The Red Door apartment in the centre of Bologna for ten days. The owners, Giuseppina and Marco are so helpful, both before our arrival and when we were guests. Giusy met us when we arrived and showed us around. The apartment is beautifully furnished and comprises of two large bedrooms, two bathrooms (one of which is en suite), a well equipped kitchen with large dining table. There is a large sofa and chair in the seating area with a television. Air-conditioning is in all rooms, also electric window shutters at all windows.

Outside is a large terrace with pot plants, table and chairs with a parasol, a great place to eat breakfast, lunch or dinner if you fancy cooking. There is a Co-op nearby which is well stocked. As other contributors have already said, the apartment is within five minutes of Piazza Maggiore and shopping areas. Restaurants are also nearby. If you, like us, hire a car, it is most convenient to be able to park below the apartment. The payment to Giusy is 25euros per day plus a one off city permit payment of 30euros. We would not hesitate to recommend The Red Door apartment.

Great location for all the sights of Bologna. Apartment was very quiet, comfortable and stylishly furnished. We really appreciated the air conditioning as we stayed in August! Guiseppina was a lovely host - great communication and very friendly. We would highly recommend this apartment.
