Bring your furry friends along for the ride. This place is pet friendly.

A study in sophisticated elegance, with a medieval portico, Renaissance frescos and Liberty Hall’s massive glass cupola that opens in the summer.

Near busses, planes, trains and automobiles (right off the A14) for easy all-mode access.

A less than 10-min stroll will get you to the Bologna Museum of Modern Art (MAMbo), which focuses on art from WWII to the present.

Within walking distance of the centre or hop on a gratis house bike and get there in a flash.

Steps from the park (views from the restaurant terrace!), and the city’s best shopping streets. Win-win.

Just built, and you can almost still catch a whiff of that new-car smell.

What’s that they say about life imitating art? Ponder it while you take in the artwork throughout or hit up the modern art museum next door.

Lush multilevel garden with views of the surrounding hills.

Soft colours soothe you to sleep while the pillow menu makes it all juuust right.

Close to the airport so you can spend time on more important things (like catching some extra z's).

Rooms are simple and unassuming, perfect for catching up on your z’s after a long day of sightseeing, gelato-sampling and wine-sipping.

Nestled in the hills above Florence with breathtaking views of the city.

Free WiFi? You know it.
