One of the most unique properties ever!

Location is great - dead centre walking distance to everything important. The actual palazzo is incredibly unique and beautiful - lots of artwork everywhere and all the rooms / hallways are designed amazingly. The couple that run the B&B are very nice and accommodating, the breakfast is also really nice - everyone sits around a large table and cooked / baked dishes are brought out throughout the service. Very much looking forward to going back next time in Bologna.

Nice building, nice surroundings good breakfast but attitude of host was upsetting

The host treated us very badly on arrival. We had informed them beforehand that we might not arive until 20 to 21 hours due to any delay with flight. When we arrived the host gentleman told us the hostess was not expecting us to arrive until 21 hours. Wew had to wait over 20 mins to be shown to our room. The following morn and subsequently, we were not greeted very nicely as she treated other guests differently

Perfect

We spent a few wonderful nights in a 15th century palace. This experience in Bologna was very memorable. We had a rich breakfast every morning accompanied by classical music and a different dessert every day. All the staff were warm and friendly. Looking forward to our next stay.

Exceptional experience

The Palazzo di Alcina is a beautiful Renaissance villa which has been in the host's family for generations. The decor and artwork is breathtaking. It was such a privilege to be able to stay in a genuine Palazzo and to meet the hosts Maria Christina and her husband. They are two exquisite and cultured people who are happy to share their beautiful home with guests. From the first welcome to the farewell at the end of our stay we were treated with generosity and warmth by this exceptional couple. The passion and enthusiasm they have for Bologna and the artistic treasures of this beautiful city really shine through. Maria Christina provides the most unbelievable breakfasts each morning in a sumptuous room with an astonishing choice of local products, fruit and pastries. In addition to all that each day we were treated to a homemade sweet treat and gourmet dishes such as omelette with truffle and vitello tonnato. All served with care and precision by Maria Christina and the delightful Anna. Our room was a deluxe double suite and the decor was in keeping with the renaissance style of the Palazzo but with the most comfortable bed and modern bathroom. Staying here for 3 days was like stepping back into another time but with all the modern comforts we expect nowadays. We will remember the experience for a very long time and really hope to return one day.

Having to leave and return to reality.

I would not recommend this place to anyone. Terrible experience.

Location.

There were health-related problems. Both my wife and I developed respiratory problems after staying in the room for several hours. It was supposed to be a smoke-free room. When we complained our symptoms, they offered another room. The facility was not what was advertised.

Italian palazzo at its best

If you want to step back in time and feel like a royal, this is your place. Palazzo di Alcina is conveniently located in central Bologna, a few steps from main streets and monuments. You can easily walk to restaurants, stores and IL Duomo and Cathedral. The rooms are rented by the owners who live in a wing of the palace and are always attentive to every detail. Rooms are confortable and every detail is taken care of. Luxury surrounds you everywhere and breakfast is luscious and beautifully presented. Thank you for making our stay, magical.

Perfetto. There’s nothing more to add!

Everything was stunningly beautiful and elegant. A fabulous morning palatial-style feast served by candlelight with period music and fresh, homemade pastries. Kind, professional and perfect service. The palace was immaculate, and so peacefully quiet at night for sleep. Very near the towers and main square, as well as the music and medieval museums. Very walkable.

Superb Stay! Step back in time and enjoy.

This palazzo is spectacular and unique. It is luxuriously appointed throughout and you’ll feel like you’ve stepped back into a time of glamour and opulence. It’s like being in a beautiful painting, albeit an exceptionally comfortable one! Your hostess is gracious and attentive. Maria Cristina takes care and pride in the maintenance of an extraordinary guest experience. Breakfast is outstanding and beautifully curated. The beds are ultra comfortable. Everything was truly perfect.

Warmly received and wonderful host with an excellent location! Looking forward to returning!

Loved the building, its location and the breakfast was delicious with nice variety.

Bathroom could use a night light and often the outside stairwell lacked lights being turned on.

Fabulous stay which we will never forget

The hospitality, friendliness and cleanliness of this beautiful B&B was superb. MariaCristina and PierFrancesco made us feel so welcome to their amazing home. The breakfast was an experience, lovely cheeses, fresh bread, delicious fruit and always cake to finish. We will never forget our stay here and will recommend it to everyone we meet. A very special mention to Nina, a lovely member of staff.

A truly unique and wonderful stay

The residence is Exceptional! It is an elegant and historic property with soaring ceilings and fine artworks all around. The hosts Maria Cristina and Pier Francesco are an absolutely lovey couple who really take care of your every need. The breakfast was lush and exceptional . Anything you could want. It is 5 minutes walking distance, or less to everything right in the center. Yet, it is quiet and peaceful. It is a truly one of a kind stay and experience. i will be back again. Chris.

the place is gorgeous! Very high ceiling all painted so amazingly. The breakfasts were so over the top, every morning a new surprise. The hosts were so helpful with maps and tips. The location is very close to the city center we could walk everywhere. The beds are fluffy and nice, lots of pillows, the shower was amazing.

Gorgeous palazzo in city centre

Fantastically located and gorgeous palazzo. Our room was enormous, with beautiful decor. The hosts couldn't be friendlier and service is on hand as required. The breakfast is a giant spread and it keeps coming. We literally lasted all day afterwards. Guests have access to an opulent living room during the day also. A good place to go if you want to splurge (as it's expensive). We parked at the Agosto VIII parking about 8 minutes' walk away rather than the suggested garage more nearby because that garagale had very mixed reviews.

OUTSTANDING STAY- GRACIOUS HOSTS

After a month long stay in Italy how wonderful it was to meet the gracious owners Cristina and Francesco, they warmly welcomed me into their beautiful home. I enjoyed an interesting chat as Francesco learned of my interests and provided me with historical information and places to visit. My morning breakfast was a delight, with something special for me to begin my day in Bologna.My bedroom was immense and opulent, with a comfortable bed, and sitting area. Location is perfect, a short walk to the center area with many shops, restaurants, and historical sites. This was the highlight of my visit to Italy, due to the great care and kindness of the hosts. Highly recommend, will recommend to everyone I know planning a stay in Italy. Con Molto Gazie!!

Lovely stay, with lovely hosts.

The breakfast is off the charts- it is so decadent and lovely. The rooms are plush and comfortable. The owners really care if your needs are met.

It is a little bit loud with the windows open. It does have a courtyard but you can definitely hear the street. You are located in the city center- so I am not sure where you would go to not have that.

outstanding and one the best ever stay experiences outside home

Cristina and Piero, who run this establishment were outstandingly caring and a mine of information of things in and around Bologna. The ambience, pairings and other art objects in this residence is to be seen to be believed.

Exceptional

If you want to maximize your experience in Bologna, you MUST stay here! Ideally located in the heart of Bologna (walkable to train station), this 1600s palace is a truly special place. Piero-Francisco and Maria Christina, the owners and hosts, made every effort to welcome us and assist us in anything we needed. The room was very uniquely decorated and very comfortable. The bed linens were exquisite. Breakfast was so tasty with an assortment of many tasty items. The palace is decorated with renaissance period artwork and truly outstanding antiques. If you are traveling to Bologna, you cannot miss this experience. We have traveled to Europe many times and this place rates at the top!
