Casa Bertagni

Casa Bertagni is an eclectic, art-forward guest house in central Bologna that feels more like staying in a curated private home than a standard hotel.

Design-led rooms: Each room has its own theme and mixes antique pieces with contemporary art and design for a distinctly boutique feel. Room features vary, but you’ll find modern essentials like air conditioning, Wi‑Fi, and a smart TV.

Comfort details: Several rooms include thoughtful extras such as an herbal tea selection/corner, and some add a safe. For a more indulgent stay, one room is listed with a private bathroom featuring a hot tub, while another highlights a double shower.

Shared spaces that extend your stay: Guests can use the living room, kitchen, and a private garden, creating a relaxed “come and go” rhythm that suits longer weekends. Breakfast is served as a continental buffet, with the option to eat outdoors in the garden when weather allows.

Helpful, experience-focused service: Casa Bertagni can assist with restaurant reservations, ticket bookings, and arranging tours and excursions, including food-and-wine and culture-focused options. There are also add-on services like laundry and a chauffeur service.

Central Bologna convenience: You’re positioned for easy walks to Piazza Maggiore, the Two Towers, and the Pinacoteca Nazionale—ideal for sightseeing without relying on taxis.

Limited car access: The property sits in Bologna’s limited-traffic area, so driving in can be tricky without following the provided approach instructions.

Parking is not automatic: Private parking is available only with reservation and as a paid option, so it may not suit spontaneous road trips.

Late arrival trade-offs: Self check-in is available after 8:00 PM, but guests who prefer in-person check-in late in the evening may face an extra charge.
