Affittacamere Borgonuovo

The accommodation lives up to its description; it is centrally located, very safe to walk around late at night, and close to everything. It is clean, quiet, and spacious. But the best part is the host, Adrianna: she is incredible! A wonderful person; I highly recommend her. It doesn't have a kitchen, but there are some incredible bars very close by.

Friendly owner, flexible organization without administrative constraints, extremely quiet yet central location, ideally situated in the old town, with a charming inner courtyard. Modest and unpretentious establishment.

The property is very nice, the location is excellent and the person who handled my booking was very kind and helpful. The only flaw was the sheets, which were too worn and really worn out, and the strong smell of mold in the room. Other than that, everything was perfect.

Central and quiet location and management that combines courtesy and discretion: it was a positive experience.

The property is in a very convenient and central location.

Great location. Nice, cool temperatures inside the building. Hot water ran out within a few minutes. The bench in the courtyard was broken, as was the chair inside (unstable). The host was very professional, courteous, prompt, and accommodating. The price was excellent. It was a bit damp and musty. A small fan in the place would be helpful. Everything was clean. I'm realistic about the place overall, so just a couple of small adjustments would have made this better, but overall it was good.

The owner is very kind and very helpful in meeting the various requests made. The room offers good value for money as a base for visiting Bologna on foot and has a very central location.

The location is strategic and still quiet. Spartan and functional. Arianna was very kind and helpful.

A very comfortable stay, perfect for resting. But the best thing was definitely Arianna's hospitality, always attentive to our every need and ready to help us. I would definitely come back! Highly recommended!

We were very satisfied with the accommodation. Everything went very smoothly. Check-in was uncomplicated and flexible, and on the day of departure we were able to leave our luggage there. Arianna was very friendly and always reachable. She even offered us an upgrade and we could use the apartment with a kitchen. I also liked the furnishings. The accommodation has a very distinctive, pleasant character and is located in a lovely green courtyard, so it is quiet at night. The location is also very central, close, among other things, to the very noteworthy Siete Chiese at San Stefano, and it's easy to get everywhere on foot, which for us as tourists was ideal to explore the beautiful city of Bologna. If I were to travel to Bologna again, I would like to stay here again. Many thanks once more.

The room was exactly as in the photos. It is a guesthouse in the historic center, simply furnished but with everything you need. Great prices for central Bologna; I couldn't find anything cheaper and the location is right below the Two Towers. Simple accommodation but clean and quiet because it is located in an inner courtyard. Heating and hot water OK. I will definitely return; in Bologna it is hard to find such a centrally located and affordable place.

Very dirty and poorly maintained.

Simple but really lovely accommodation. Quiet, peaceful location in the safest and most beautiful area of Bologna. Everything nearby, including great little restaurants. Great price.

Unfortunately, my experience at this B&B was not positive. The cleanliness of the property was very poor, an aspect that is fundamental to me and did not meet expectations. Another major problem was the cold inside the apartment: despite the radiators being on, they were not warm enough and could not adequately heat the space. Furthermore, there was no air conditioning or alternative heating system to compensate for this lack. The situation was made worse by the second entrance door with a broken handle, which did not close properly and let cold drafts in during the night. Consequently, the apartment was very cold and uncomfortable. I hope these issues will be taken into consideration to improve the service offered to future guests.

Property is in an excellent location.

I have stayed several times at this B&B and have always had a good experience. Ms. Arianna is very kind, always ready to accommodate any of your needs. The property is in a strategic location, close to the center. The room is delightful, located in a small courtyard and away from the city's noise. I highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a relaxing break and a warm welcome.

I had a very pleasant stay at B&B Borgonuovo. The location is very central but quiet, since the rooms face the inner courtyard, sheltered from any noise from the street. The property is not brand new, but if you do not have high expectations in terms of design or modernity, it is more than fine. The host is very helpful and kind. If I were to find myself in Bologna again, I would definitely stay there again!

I am sorry to have to write this review, but the property disappointed me a lot. Nothing to say about the location, which is truly excellent, as well as the owner, who was nonetheless helpful toward us. However, the property was absolutely not up to expectations, especially regarding cleanliness, despite the owner having been warned by me that I cared about it particularly (we were three families!). In addition, the toilet seat was broken, there were practically no power outlets, the space was decidedly impractical, and the room had a really musty smell. I recommend that you address these issues, because it would really be worth it given the great location of the property.

Ok.

Excessive humidity, a very uncomfortable bed and a scent diffuser that filled the room with a nauseating smell. Despite the excellent location, at that price it is unacceptable not to be able to sleep because of the humidity and the odor.

Perfect stay, thank you for everything. Mrs. Arianna is very kind and courteous. Thank you for everything. Roberto and Luisa.

Very comfortable attic, kindness of the owners, cleanliness of the premises. A little far from the historic center, but the nearby area is well served by public transport, venues, bars for a good breakfast, supermarkets and grocery stores.

Very convenient location. Ms. Arianna is very kind, helpful and understanding.

I stayed with my wife for two nights during Cersaie in a single room. Although it was specified that the single room has a one-and-a-half bed, the owner reiterated this several times, fearing we might not be comfortable. In conversation, I then understood why: unfortunately some people make the most varied criticisms after staying in order to 'extort' discounts or refunds and it is also for this reason that I decided to leave a review, although it is not my habit. The guesthouse in question is a nice place; the rooms are simply furnished, but clean and pleasant. The location is excellent, the owner is very kind and the price is really fair, if not low, considering this is a property in the historic center of a rather expensive city like Bologna. A really positive stay.

Unexpected surprise! A small but very charming B&B in the heart of Bologna's historic center. Perfect for someone like me who does not like to take public transport or walk a lot: the location is excellent, practically beneath the Two Towers. We were able to visit the historic center and rest peacefully, because the rooms face an inner garden and you cannot hear the street at all. The owner is very kind and always available for any need; she gave us directions from the station and even kept our luggage in the room well beyond check-out time. Clean room, hairdryer and bed linen provided and a quiet place. Main strength: the location, right in the historic center. We will definitely return.

Unfortunately our experience was not among the best. The only positive aspect was the location. For two people we were provided with a one-and-a-half-size bed, there is no refrigerator and the small room is completely affected by heavy humidity (see photos), which we did not notice at first because the room had just been cleaned. Long stays are strongly discouraged unless the problem is resolved. We expected a refund, which was not offered.

Property located in the center of Bologna. The owner is very kind, friendly and available at any time.

Nice room in a good location because you can walk to the city center in a few minutes. The owner is very kind and helpful. If we come back to Bologna, we will definitely stay here again. Recommended.

Manager ready to meet the needs of the clientele.

The structure is very central and this is definitely the strong point. In my case, cleanliness was completely lacking. The bed had hair on the sheets and a pungent smell of cigarette smoke, masked by an air freshener, made the air in the room stinky. The "bed mat" was obviously dirty. The bathroom was clean but in decidedly precarious conditions: the shower faucet was broken and before I managed to get the water to flow, I had to reposition it a couple of times because when I tried to operate it, it would come off. Additionally, there was a very noisy neighbor in the next room who talked on the phone with a loud voice during the night, making rest difficult. If it had been a longer stay, I would have changed accommodations from the first day. Too bad because it is a potentially very nice place in a strategic point of the city.

Great solution in the historic center. The room is lovely, in a really strategic location. The owner is very kind, who allowed us to use the room long after the check-out time. Highly recommended.

Charming little room with an incredible location in a wonderful, lively and not too touristy area of Bologna. Everything you could want for the price, thank you again!

Excellent property in the heart of Bologna, very clean and welcoming. The owner is always available for anything to ensure a perfect stay. Highly recommended.

Very central, so great for a weekend if you want to stroll around the center, but the room was very humid (water damage), little ventilation, no fan, so it's hard to sleep well.

Very kind host - warm welcome with many tips.

Central and welcoming place, a long corridor separates it from the street, making it safe, and the view of the internal courtyard gives it a nice atmosphere. Well-furnished and cute room. In the shower, a hook to hold the showerhead up would be useful.

Very close to the center. Room with an old bed and a broken leg, so they put bricks under it to support it (they say it broke during cleaning before arrival). Shower a bit broken but usable. Everything else is fine, quiet and peaceful area.

This is a nice room in a central location. The host responds quickly to questions.

Good stay in a very central area.

A fantastic location to get to know Bologna. And yet beautifully situated in a quiet area.

The edges of the shower tray, in the less visible areas, were black with dirty limescale. The walls, both tiles and glass, were porous and did not allow the disinfectant liquid I applied to penetrate. I had to ask for shampoo, liquid soap, and coffee capsules. There was no toothbrush holder. The rugs in the bathroom and the room seemed dirty to me. The coffee machine was not working, and the kettle was unusable because it was scaled and dirty. The heating was on 24/7, and to breathe, I had to keep the window ajar.

Extremely well located, friendly host.

I stayed in this accommodation for the Cosmoprof and I felt very good. The location is fantastic. The rooms are simple but new and very clean. The price is low considering the fair period. The owner Arianna is a very kind person and really willing to help. I recommend it.

The apartment was not clean, smoked inside. Stains on the sheets. Overall not clean.

Arianna is a very kind and helpful person. The room is worth what you spend: it needs some adjustments, at times there is really little privacy due to the presence of other people in the adjacent room, but it is comfortable if you are out all day to visit the city.

Everything is perfect.

Very satisfied. Just a suggestion to put a larger television for moments of relaxation in the room, considering that the one being used is really small.

Simple bed and breakfast in the heart of Bologna. I had a ground floor room overlooking the inner courtyard. Ideal for me as a cycling traveler. Quite shady in the inner courtyard. In summer, it will surely be very pleasant. Very friendly and accommodating owner. Checking in late was not a problem.

The room with bathroom is nice and clean. Excellent location in the center, with an internal courtyard. You can comfortably walk around. Mrs. Arianna is very kind and helpful. The price is economical compared to other structures, especially for its location. If I had to return to Bologna, I would definitely call Mrs. Arianna. Highly recommended.

I stayed at the 'Affittacamere Borgonuovo' to assist my husband who underwent surgery at a nearby hospital. I had a great experience. Excellent location, kind host, and affordable prices. I recommend.

Good location. The room is quite humid and has only the basics. Host was nice but we never met them. Payment only cash a bit hard to organize since host wasn’t there at arrival nor departure. All in all a decent stay if you’re looking for the minimum and just want to be outside discovering the city.

The manager, a lady, was very kind and helpful, even on the price. Unfortunately, the structure, although clean, is dilapidated and abandoned, the walls show dampness, old furniture, and a lot of unnecessary furniture. I couldn't use the coffee machine because there were no pods, the towels were clean but already worn out. The entrance is not comfortable.

Excellent solution, very central and at really convenient prices. I recommend.

The B&B Affittacamere Borgonuovo is a simple and practical solution to stay in the center of Bologna. It is easily reachable on foot from the station and very convenient for the area. It is located near an area with restaurants, supermarkets, and bars; however, the apartment is in a quiet area.

Mrs. Arianna was kind and helpful. The structure is located in the historic center and on the ground floor. There were many positive aspects. Unfortunately, the double bed was uncomfortable as it was made up of two single mattresses. Additionally, there were ants above the bed and a closed door that divided another room, from which everything could be heard; it felt like we were all together. The duvet was stained and the towels were old, stained, and all different. I cannot recommend this structure.

The 1883 building in the center of Bologna in the historic city center, close to the towers and the Galleria Cavour shopping center. Wide choice of restaurants, piadinerie, and snack bars nearby. The structure is well organized, Arianna is very kind, helpful, courteous, and always reachable by phone and/or via WhatsApp. Check-in is also possible until 9pm/10pm, just arrange it with Mrs. Arianna. From the train station, take bus 30, get off at Via Farini and in 10 minutes walk you arrive at Via Borgonuovo 9. From Piazza Minghetti, you return to Bologna Centrale station. If you need to reach the Rizzoli Orthopedic Institute (as in my case), for the outbound journey you can always take bus 30 from Piazza Minghetti and get off at the IOR square. For the return, you always take bus 30 from the IOR square and get off at Via Farini. The daily room rate is excellent. The rooms are vintage but clean, comfortable, and quiet, located in the palace courtyard. It is advisable to book in advance due to the highly requested location of the structure. PAM and COOP shops are close to Via Borgonuovo 9. I highly recommend the structure for its location, the hospitality of Mrs. Arianna, and the tranquility of the place. An "island" of peace in the heart of Bologna. I will certainly return.

Pleasant and comfortable.

I stayed at this property and really appreciated the setting. Excellent location as it is right in the city center, but inside an ancient building where one can immerse themselves in a pure relaxation atmosphere. Simple yet clean rooms. Silence and tranquility. Very helpful host. Prices are very reasonable compared to similar structures in the city.

Definitely great location, friendly and helpful host but lacking in cleanliness and maintenance of the property.

Arianna was super kind! Clean room, great location!

Great location to visit the city center on foot. The room is very small, equipped in a very spartan way but clean and quiet. Manager available and kind.

Great location, good value for money and fantastic warm helpful hostess make this place one I'd recommend!

Arianna's place is perfect for a stay in Bologna. The location is really great. It's literally a 5-minute walk to the bus station but it's also very central. To be honest, I barely used public transportation because it is always convenient to just walk but when I needed to, it was right there. There are lots of restaurants and life around but in the place itself, it's completely quiet. Arriana's place is very clean and comfortable and has everything you could need. The owner, she is very kind and very helpful, the rooms are located inside a small internal courtyard and are welcoming and quiet. Excellent quality/price ratio. I would 100% recommend a stay here.

Comfortable environment, highly available owner. Excellent value for money to be in the center of Bologna. Recommended.

I stayed at this property twice and I think I will definitely come back. The owner is very kind and helpful, the rooms are located inside an internal courtyard and are cozy and quiet.

Excellent place, excellent management and excellent location. No issues.

Very easy to reach from the station, even on foot with a nice walk, the room is in the very center of the city yet in a quiet and peaceful setting. The garden provides a cool and welcoming room. Arianna was a kind and helpful host. I plan to return and definitely recommend it!

Unfortunately, I had to cancel my reservation at the last minute for family reasons, but I thank the courtesy and professionalism of the owner, who despite the inconvenience I caused her, helped me without charging me any penalty.

I have been several times in this establishment, which is very central, and even though you are immersed in the beautiful Bologna you are at the same time in a quiet area. The rooms that have been assigned to me each time have always been clean and tidy, with an en-suite bathroom. The window overlooks an inner courtyard, rich in greenery, and the owner has always been very kind and helpful, in fact she even allowed me to check out after the scheduled time once. This is a place that I recommend to everyone for a comfortable visit to Bologna.

Great location near Santo Stefano. Very quiet. Beautiful condominium in a historic building. Rooms with independent entrance. Only flaw pillows, sheets, and blankets of low quality, but comfortable bed.

The room is nice, clean, the bathroom is internal/private. Arianna, the host, was kind and helpful and allowed us good flexibility in leaving our luggage for the necessary time. The first impression was positive. The location is great because it's close to the center, and it's also a quiet area (the distance from the station is about 25 minutes on foot). It wasn't necessary to pay before arrival. Immediate responses from the host. However, let's move on to the negative points that unfortunately I cannot overlook: - the soundproofing of the rooms, because you can hear every slight noise, even the most embarrassing and private... if you happen to have noisy and careless 'neighboring guests', as well as those who are not very attentive to modesty, you will be very embarrassed and with few hours of sleep; imagine a red light movie, you will only miss the video but you can enjoy the audio... In the room, something you won't see in the photos, there is a locked door that connects to the neighbors' room. The lock of that door seems to have been closed with toilet paper. - The room has a window without a shutter (at least the glass was the type that covers the view) - the room does have the door seen in the photo with 3 working locks from the inside (needs some oil), but also an internal door with a broken handle, fortunately the room is far from the street. - the bathroom has no windows or ventilation points, and if you go to the bathroom with a stomach ache, you will be heard everywhere. Also, the top part of the toilet bowl was partly broken. - I confirm the presence of a bedspread with cigarette burns. - the host had not delivered the key where she had requested, so basically we were in a room where another person might have had access. Positive note on the operation of the hairdryer and TV. Don't miss out on Bologna, a very pleasant city :).

Really great location, just a few steps from a very well-serviced bus line, and between two of the main streets of Bologna, Strada Maggiore and Via Santo Stefano. The rooms are located in the internal courtyard of an ancient building, and therefore overlook a few square meters of greenery, with a small bench, two trees, a few flowers... a lucky feature in the city center. Comfortable, clean room with a queen-size bed, wardrobe, TV, coffee machine available. The small bathroom has a bidet and shower, hairdryer. The owner, Mrs. Arianna, was extremely kind and helpful. The price seemed more than fair to me, especially after staying in other B&Bs in the city center!

Excellent room in the heart of Bologna, unbeatable quality price! The owner extremely helpful and friendly.

The location of the structure is fantastic, just a few steps from everything. Mrs. Arianna is very helpful and kind for anything, the room is well-kept and clean, I highly recommend it to everyone, I will definitely know where to go next time I return to Bologna.

I felt very good in the space of Affittacamere Borgonuovo, a comfortable and quiet corner in the heart of Bologna, a stone's throw from Strada Maggiore and the basilica of Santo Stefano.

Found it very well, the owner very helpful.

He stayed because I had to attend a yoga convention right on the same street as the Affittacamere Borgonuovo. Both experiences were positive! The location is great because it's very central, the room was warm and comfortable and equipped with everything essential... I really enjoyed my stay and when I return to Bologna, I will definitely stay there again. Congratulations to the owner, a very kind and helpful person, who made the luggage storage available to me until the time of my train departure.

Perfect structure for our stay in the heart of Bologna. Very central, less than ten minutes walk from Piazza Maggiore, equipped with comforts, with en-suite bathroom, shower, hairdryer, always hot water. We were warm in this cold December 8th bridge, and enjoyed beautiful walks through the historic streets of the city, the typical Santa Lucia fair, one hundred and fifty meters from the structure, the beautiful square and the church of Santo Stefano, as well as, of course, the very close Towers and Piazza Maggiore. Great value for money, courtesy and kindness of the host. We will be back!

Excellent in everything, it was a wonder for me both the room and the manager. I recommend everyone to spend at least one weekend.

Great value for money, very kind and always available owner.

Excellent.

Beds too soft, need to change the mattress.

Great.

Perfect relaxation precise good good.

The stay at the property was very pleasant. We especially appreciated the inner courtyard, ideal for relaxing, but also the spacious wardrobe and comfortable shower turned out to be positive points. The best part is definitely the proximity to the center of Bologna, which can be reached on foot in a few minutes. Furthermore, the owner was absolutely available for everything we needed.

I found myself very well.

Wonderful little room with own bathroom in the center of the city, situated in a courtyard. Very charming and good place for me.

Structure to be improved, lacking the necessary for washing, at least for the first or only night, it needs to be found. For the moment, the location is truly positive.

Everything was perfect, Arianna is a lovely person and always available, she was even too lenient with me. Deserves recognition.

I stayed two times at this charming hidden place as I took a bike ride down to Tuscany. It is an ideal place in the center of Bologna also to store your bike within the small internal courtyard. The check-in was perfect with the help of the phone. I can really recommend this B&B.

Central and convenient for those who need to stay in the central area for tourism or business. Essential but very comfortable and quiet.

We felt at home, Arianna is very kind and helpful, the area is very central, we will definitely come back.

Convenient and quiet place near the Duse theater and the church of the 7 chapels.

Great location, behind the Basilica of Santo Stefano, in the center of Bologna, close to everything. The room is in an internal courtyard, super quiet. We 'fell in love' with Arianna, the owner, very kind and helpful. We have already booked for other dates, we felt at home. Thank you Arianna.

Very cozy and clean room, in a strategic position right in the historic center of Bologna. Arianna is a really kind and attentive person, we had a great time! Highly recommended!

Overall good, nice location, the only problem was the dusty bathroom fan.

Great communication and availability. The rooms are in an inner courtyard. Great location.

Quiet place in a very central area. Very kind Mrs. Arianna who welcomed us. We really enjoyed ourselves.

Excellent location for those who need to attend the Duse and then take a stroll through old Bologna. Minimal furnishings but sufficient for those seeking proximity to the center more than comfort. Kind and very helpful landlady.

The owner Arianna is a wonderful person, very attentive to the needs of her guests and extremely punctual. The environment is surprisingly peaceful and spending time there gives the feeling of being in the heart of Bologna. The room is warm and welcoming, equipped with all the essentials. Nearby there are numerous dining options.

I used the structure for only one night and I had a good time. The lady was very helpful and kind. I have confirmed for more overnight stays. Being located in the center, it is easily reachable from the central station (it's about a 25-minute walk but passing through the center is also pleasant for a walk).
