We stayed one night and it was very pleasant. The location is great and the Lady who hosted us was very kind, helpful, and gave us many suggestions for visiting the city. We recommend the B&B San Francesco.

I stayed for only one night in this splendid structure located in the warm center of the city of Piacenza. I was welcomed just as warmly by the owner, a very humane and extremely helpful person. This structure from now on will be my point of reference in my heart!

The apartment is very central, with a wonderful view of Piazza Cavalli and the cathedral. A marvelous view from the top floor, very bright. The accommodation is a bit dated, but everything was tidy and very clean.\n\nFor me, arriving on a freezing day, it was pleasant to find the whole environment heated, the bed very comfortable, two soft pillows, a nice duvet, and the possibility to have a herbal tea or something warm using a small oven.\n\nMrs. Laura is the icing on the cake, very kind and helpful. She pampered me with a wonderful breakfast, even though I told her it wasn't necessary for her to come.

The B&B San Francesco is located in a stunning setting. The rooms' furnishings are pleasant, and the environments are all clean and tidy. The only small downside is that the bathroom is not provided with shower gel, only hand soap. Otherwise, the place is very comfortable, and the manager is a delightful person.

Very nice and helpful hostess, cozy, clean room in a central location - the only downside is the late night rest in the center - incredible panoramic view of the roofs of beautiful Piacenza. Would gladly return.

The rooms are simple and somewhat old-fashioned, but the service is impeccable, everything necessary like shower and wifi is available, the rooms are heated in winter and air-conditioned for summer. The only issue was with the sockets in one room. The breakfast is completely fine and the location couldn't be better: right in the heart of the old town of Piacenza. Additionally, the terrace would be a real asset in summer. A very good offer at this price.

I stayed with my daughter and my little nephew and we had a great time. The owner was kind and helpful, immediately making us feel comfortable. The central location speaks for itself, as well as the view from the windows. Excellent value for money. I will definitely come back.

B&B San Francesco in the city center, large, very clean and elegant apartment. The owner welcomed us with great cordiality and availability. Abundant breakfast served in a very well-kept environment. In short, totally satisfied.

I stayed 3 nights at the B&B San Francesco. The structure is not luxurious but extremely clean, very central (you couldn't ask for better from this point of view). The owner is very courteous and helpful, I would really have a hard time finding any negative aspect. In my opinion, there are none. So if I were to return to Piacenza, I would go to B&B San Francesco without a doubt and I feel like recommending it highly, especially for short stays, like mine was.

Enviable location on Piazza Cavalli, excellent cleanliness, very comfortable bed and very helpful and kind manager. I recommend it.

The warm and comfortable accommodation at B&B San Francesco and Laura's warm and helpful reception were much appreciated on a cold, foggy week in December. The view from the bedroom and breakfast room over the main square was atmospheric in the fog and must be beautiful in the summer. The B&B is perfectly situated for exploring the old streets, museums and churches of this fascinating town.

francesco

I stayed for one night during a short trip to Piacenza and the impression was absolutely positive. The location of B&B San Francesco is very central and from the terrace you have a charming view of the central square of Piacenza. The reservation was simple, the welcome very friendly. Both the room and the bathroom were beautiful and clean, the breakfast was of good quality. Despite all these positive aspects, the price remains quite reasonable. It was necessary to park 10 minutes away due to the central location, but the walk was more a pleasure than a inconvenience.

Il B&B si trova al sesto piano di un edificio in pieno centro con vista su Piazza Cavalli, la piazza principale di Piacenza. Ho pernottato nella stanza singola con bagno privato, molto pulita e accogliente. La signora è cordiale e super disponibile. Ottimo anche il rapporto qualità/prezzo. Da consigliare.

Siamo stati al B&B San Farncesco, la scorsa settimana, prenotando via internet la sera prima del nostro arrivo. Disponibilità e cortesia della proprietaria sono stati Ottimi, se passeremo di nuovo da Piacenza non abbiamo dubbi sul dove pernottare.

Excellent accueil, situation idéale dans la ville et charme de la terrasse en surplomb de la Piazza Cavalli et de la façade de l'église San Francesco: une adresse à recommander très vivement pour découvrir Piacenza dans les conditions les plus agréables.

stayed from 06/23/2015 to 06/25/2015

Excellent two bedroom two bathroom top floor flat with secure access overlooking main square of Piacenza. Antique items of furniture and flower planters on the narrow balcony give an attractive environment. The owner could not be more helpful, everything is high quality and this is an ideal choice for a visit to this lovely old town.

The owner is amazingly kind and friendly, and accommodating. Her B&B is super clean and comfortable. It could not be any more central or in a nicer location, you are a stone throw away from everything. We really enjoyed our stay and we will definitely come back.

Das B&B San Francesco ist eine große Dachgeschosswohnung MITTEN in Piancenza (Piazza Cavalli). Wir hatten ein Doppelzimmer mit Bad und auch einen Aufenthaltsraum, in dem am Morgen das Frühstück gereicht wird, zur Verfügung. Weiters hat die Wohnung einen riesigen Balkon, auf dem man den Abend gemütlich ausklingen lassen kann. Die Wohnung ist überhaupt nicht überladen - sehr einfach, aber geschmackvoll eingerichtet - und SEHR sauber. Laura Bonafanti und ihre Mutter bemühen sich sehr, haben Vorschläge für Restaurants, kennen sich gut aus, sind zeitlich sehr flexibel, etc. Uns fehlte uns es an nichts. Das Frühstück ist eher sporadisch (nur süß: Zwieback, Keckse, Kuchen und Croissants), was aber bei diesem Preis nicht stört. Uns hat es an nichts gefehlt. Wir würden sofort wieder da übernachten.

La gentilissima Signora Bonfanti ha accolto me e mia sorella con molta cordialità, professionalità, disponibilità e discrezione. La struttura, situata in zona centrale, al 6° piano, è luminosa, dotata di un bel terrazzino con affaccio sulla chiesa di San Francesco dove poter fare colazione o leggere o semplicemente ammirare dall'alto le bellezze storiche di Piacenza. Le stanze sono pulitissime e accoglienti. Ringraziamo di cuore la Signora Bonfanti per averci offerto un gradevole soggiorno.
