Set in the Borgo Panigale district, Villa Aretusi once belonged to Cesare Aretusi, late-Renaissance painter from Bologna. The city centre and Guglielmo Marconi Airport are 10 minutes' drive away. Parking is free. The rooms are located in the former barn, and come with tiled floors and air conditioning. Each one features a TV, free Wi-Fi and a private bathroom with free toiletries. A sweet Italian breakfast is served each morning. Villa Aretusi's restaurant is run by a young chef who has lots of international experience. A meeting and dining room is set in what was once the painter's studio. There is a large garden and a bus stop right outside for connections into Bologna. The property is easily reached from Bologna's ring road and the A14 and A1 motorways. Bologna Fiera exhibition centre is 10 minutes away by car.

Couples particularly like the location — they rated it 8.5 for a two-person trip.

    The Villa itself great, a little island in a big town. Easy to access to the rooms, the restaurant is really good.

    The Villa is located in a nice little park in a rather normal, suburban neighbourhood close to the highway and some high-traffic streets. The room we had was clean, the bathroom spacious and the breakfast decent - speaking as a barbarian from...
