About this property

The Jasmine Terrace Retreat: elegant and quiet apartment in the city center

La Porta Rossa is located at the heart of Bologna, a 5-minute walk from Piazza Maggiore, in a quiet street, in one of the most unspoiled areas of the center of Bologna. The apartment is in the context of a renovated and elegant building and is elegantly furnished and equipped with all the comfort, specifically made and finished in order to be destined to be temporary rented. Two bedrooms and two bathrooms, kitchen, dining room, large living room with sofa bed all for you exclusively. Oriented toward the inside part of the building is completely quiet and peaceful. It also has a large terrace with dining table. Equipped with air conditioning, very fast wi-fi and complete with washing machine and dryer. In the living room there is a large screen television. The building has an elevator heading down to the floor of the parking space. You can park in the garage at the daily price of 25 EUR plus city tax of access to the LTZ of 6 euro for entry. From the station, the apartment is a 15 minute walk, otherwise you can take one of the many buses that travel along the nearby Independence and Marconi streets. From the airport we suggest to take a taxi which cost does not usually exceed 25 euro. The presence of a garage allows easy access by car.

The best in Bologna!

We had a wonderful stay at Giuseppe and Marco’s apartment in Bologna. They were great hosts… communicative, responsive, and helpful. Very lovely people! The apartment was spacious and well equipped. We loved the furnishings and design. The outdoor patio was also very nice. It was also really convenient that they had parking available in the building, since we had a car. We hope to come back and stay here again in the future.

Schon zum 2. Mal verbrachten wir hier eine wunderschöne Zeit. In der großen, geschmackvoll eingerichteten Wohnung fand jeder seinen Lieblingsplatz. Meiner war die große Terrasse mit den vielen Pflanzen.Die Gastgeberin ist sehr herzlich, freundlich und hilfsbereit.Die Wohnung ist so zentral gelegen, dass Sehenswürdigkeiten, Geschäfte, Restaurants zu Fuß erreicht werden können. Etwas weitere Ziele lassen sich gut mit den Stadtbussen erreichen.Sicherlich werden wir wiederkommen.

My family and I had an absolutely wonderful time in Marco and Guiseppina’s place. They were incredibly helpful with understanding the area and offered plentiful tips to live like a local during our time there and were always available for communication. The apartment is fantastic - clean, spacious, good AC in the hot summer, absolutely fantastic artistic taste and well stocked so you can make pretty much anything you would want in the kitchen. The location is perfect, right next to the center, but tucked away from the crowds. We loved exploring the surrounding streets, so so much in walking distance. We spent every night on the incredible terrace that i miss so much already! We hope to be back. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Wonder apartment, great host

The apartment was just as described online. It was immaculate. Everything you could need or want for a stay was there. The balcony was delightful for sitting out and enjoying free time. The location was so convenient for sightseeing and shopping. Giuseppina was a thoughtful and caring host. She sent information about the city and her offers to arrange dinner reservations or secure a driver were so helpful. I would highly recommend this location if you are going to Bologna.

Great host Great location

The Jasmine Terrace, a straight forward 18min walk to Bologna Centrale, and was our jumping off point for day/overnight trips to Florence, Milan, Rome, Ravenna and Venice, and a comfortable rest point in between. Even just walking around Bologna, window shopping, walking to various squares, and poking into nearby museums was enjoyable. The spacious apartment was well equipped and worked well for 2 couples. And we enjoyed the terrace whether for a morning coffee or evening dinner. Our hosts were welcoming and gracious, and we recommend!

The Red Door

Giuseppina & Marco are great hosts, met us at the apartment and made sure that we had everything they needed. They also organised a taxi/van to collect us from the airport and to return again at the end of our stay - this included a baby seat for our baby! They also helped with our itineray visiting sights of interest and a food tour and a cookery class. Plus Bologna is the best-kept secret for an Italian holiday, so much to do and such friendly people. Very relaxing. The Red Door is in a great location and the access to the patio area was a great bonus. OK overlooked on all sides - but this is genuine city living and amazingly quiet. Look no further book this place the hospitality industry could learn much from this experience!

About the host

Hosted by Giusy

Host profile image
My profession is in the business of events organization, catering and management of locations. Some years ago I added to these activities the one of host for temporary rentals of houses and apartments. I have been very successful in this activity in which I can best express my personality. In the various platforms on which the property i managed are listed I have always reached the highest scores and awards related to customer satisfaction.
During your stay I will always be available for solving every problem and I will give you anytime advice on how to live better your experience in Bologna and Italy. Whatever your needs will become mine.

Why they chose this property

In La Porta Rossa I put all my know-how in the temporary rent business, accumulated in the last years. It is an apartment that I specially created and furnished in order to operate successfully in this exciting branch of activity.

What makes this property unique

What I liked when I choose La Porta Rossa is the context, the very central zone, the historical, elegant building. Finding a fairly large terrace and a garage are not common features in the center of Bologna. But the most surprising aspect of the apartment is the absolute peace and tranquility that characterizes it.
