Photos and Description of the Bologna vacation apartment rental
2 bedrooms + living room + 2 full bathrooms, sleeps 7-8. Large, bright apartment

This beautiful, roomy, bright apartment is part of a brand new (February 2008) residential building situated in a spacious, well-served area facing a green and shady park, a small museum right on its side and plenty of little traditional stores in the vicinity. With the city center, the railroad station and the Fiera District at walking distance, a newly-built shopping mall with an indoor swimming pool, a gym, bars, restaurants, stores and shops of all kind just around the corner, Al Parco qualifies as one of the most convenient rentals in Bologna. From here you can easily reach any spot in town: the bus stop is right by about 40 mts. and private parking is provided in the yard, which is completely fenced and 100% safe for the kids.

The apartment is a first floor (elevator) and overlooks the park with a very large (30 sq.mts.) terrace which makes a great spot for your alfresco dining (garden furniture is provided).

From our reviews (1): 'We have returned to Taiwan yesterday. Al Parco was the perfect location for us because it is within walking distance to the fairground. We would also wish to stay Al Parco for the next exhibit. Thank you so much for all the assistance from you and Ken.' (James L., Taiwan]

'Un appartement idéal parfaitement entretenu, très confortable et très moderne, une grande terrasse où l'on peut se détendre et se restaurer. il est également très bien situé : proche du centre des congrès et aussi du centre ville, nous avons donc fait tous nos déplacements à pied. la propriétaire est une personne charmante qui nous avait préparé le nombre de lits nécessaires et nous avait préparé une corbeille de fruits pour notre arrivée.' (Sebastien L., France)

'Facilidad para aparcar y buena comunicación al centro. El apartamento está muy cuidado y limpio.' (Amalia G., Spain)

From our reviews (2): 'The facility was spotlessly clean, very well supplied with amenities, in a new building of the highest quality construction and a very convienient location to transportation, groceries, shopping, and restaurants. The owners could not have been more gracious in their hospitality and helpfulness.' (Rev. Michael D., USA)

'We stayed at Al Parco apartment for a week at the end of July and we would just like to let you know that we had a wonderful time! The apartment is spacious and has so many fantastic facilities - and thank you very much for the all the delicious food! The location was perfect, as we were able to walk to the bus stop in 1 minute, and the supermarket was just down the street. Silvio was also very accommodating. He made sure that we knew how all of the appliances worked and even told us information about Bologna. Thank you also for the bus ticket. Thank you again, we will definitely recommend your apartment to anyone who is traveling to Bologna.' (Bianca P., Australia)

From our reviews (3): 'My husband and I travel to Europe once or twice a year, and can honestly say that the accommodations at Al Parco were the best we've ever experienced. Not only is the apartment immaculate and large, but the owner and her husband went far beyond our expectations to provide us with the information and supplies we would need during our stay (even beverages and snacks!). The area is so convenient. There is an excellent supermarket right across the street, a great bakery for morning coffee and pastry a 5 minute walk away, and a bus that brings you right to the center of town. The area does not feel touristy at all, you can really relax and feel at home. One of our favorite things about our stay was the large terrace - every day we made it a must-do to spend some time sitting outside. The light within the apartment is lovely too, especially soothing in the afternoonin after a long day of walking the city. For us, Al Parco has set a new standard for an apartment rental' (Neala, USA)

Italy Vacation

5 of 5
Submitted: August 29, 2009 Stayed: July 2009
We stayed for 5 days in July 2009 and were totally impressed with this condo. The size of the rooms was very large and everything seemed recently renovated. The outside terrace ran the length of the condo, making it also very spacious.
The condo was situated in what appears to be a recently built development. The landscaping also seems recent. Outdoor parking was gated, very secure. We used the condo as a springboard for day trips to Florence, Venice, etc., and of course Bologna. In Bologna, all interesting spots were a short bus ride away, very convenient.
The owner, Paola, was very welcoming and helpful. She even provided complimentary bus tickets, bottle of wine/beer, fruit baskets....WOW! A North American style supermarket is a 5 min walk away.
Overall our family was extremely satisfied and would definitely return next time we’re in Italy.
Grazie Paola.

week in Bologna

Submitted: April 23, 2013 Stayed: April 2013
This is a well located flat, in a quiet residential area, close to a park, a supermarket, restaurants and bus stops. We walked to the station (15mins) and caught trains to Ravenna and Ferrara for great day trips. We also walked into the town centre, about 30 mins, and the frequent buses (stop almost straight outside) take 5-10.
The flat is very clean, well furnished, and extremely well equipped. No need to buy dishwasher tablets or oil or other useful items. The owner prepares the flat for her guests with care and attention to detail. For example, she gave us practical advice, booked a taxi for us and provided all we needed to make breakfast, with wine and an excellent dessert. For us the best part was relaxing and eating on the large terrace, enjoying the spring sunshine. This is a comfortable, high quality apartment, and we hope to return.

Owner's Response: Thank you very much, Ann. We are very pleased you had a great time, both relaxing on the terrace and sightseeing. You certainly took some walks, both to the station where the historic center starts and as far as Piazza Maggiore. We hope to see you again too!

Very comfortable flat with everything you need

5 of 5
Submitted: April 10, 2013 Stayed: March 2013
A warm welcome from Paola was the prelude to warm and comfortable week in her spacious flat, well provided with every amenity, as accurately described on this website.There was a useful and well stocked supermarket and several places to eat nearby, with many more in the city centre.The flat was perfectly located both for easy access to the historic centre of Bologna (a short bus-ride) and to the Bologna Fiera complex (10 minutes walk) where my daughter was attending the Children's Book Fair. The free wifi internet connection at the flat made it easy for my daughter to communicate with colleagues, and for us all to check travel arrangements. The railway station is close for visits to a variety of locations throughout Emilia-Romagna or the Veneto. We visited Florence, a mere half-hour journey on the high speed train. The ancient buildings and beautiful art available to see in Bologna itself and wider afield, then coming back to our 'home from home' at Al Parco made for a memorable and enjoyable stay, made all the better by Paola's care and attention to detail (greeting new guests with wine and a tasty pannacotta). I would certainly recommend Paola's flat both for family holidays or business trips. Thanks for a great stay, Paola!

The listing description was very accurate about this attractive apartment. When we arrived, Paola was there to meet us, and give us a walk-through about how things worked. She also graciously provided us with a Bologna bus pass and a great Italian dessert! The bus stop was just outside the building and that bus takes you to the train station and the center of the city. It couldn't have been more convenient. We 2 couples spent 3 weeks in November and were blessed with sunny weather most days. We were able to make day trips via rail to Verona, Venice, Florence, Modena, Ferrara, Ravenna and Padua. And of course we spent many days exploring the beauties of Bologna! There were 2 large grocery stores within easy walking distance, so we were able to keep well stocked with food. Our favorite restaurant within walking distance was Trattoria Papa Re, at Piazza dell'Unita, 6. Paola was always helpful, even pre-ordering our taxi for the crack of dawn ride to the airport. The apartment was clean, well-maintained, nicely decorated, and well stocked with English- language books. What more can you ask for? I would heartily recommend this vacation rental!

I cannot express how happy we were with this rental. You always have that nagging feeling when you rent a private home...can it be as good as it seems? Well, in this case, YES, it is better than that. When you arrive the owner greets you and gives you a full tour, not leaving out any details about each of the rooms. She has everything you could need in the apartment and the place is clean and very comfortable. You will feel at home instantly. The dessert that she makes for you and leaves in the fridge is such a wonderful touch and was very tasty! I have no hesitation in recommending this rental. It is a quick 10-15 minute walk to the train station, and another 5 minutes to the start of the downtown arcades. A large western style grocery store across the street. Could not have been happier. Thank you!
