Michele
This awesome location is situated inside one of the most ancient and original historical private palace of Bologna: casa Dondini. Between the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries the palace was the residence of the Counts Dondini. It is in Strada Maggiore, the ancient roman Via Aemilia, the Decumanus around which "Bononia" arose. Obviously this house is inside the ancient walls and it is very close to al the most important historical places, monuments and museums. But it is useful also for business.
I will be glad to welcome you and give you all the information to fully enjoy your stay
Strada Maggiore is the ancient roman road going from Rimini to Piacenza and crossing all over the region Emilia-Romagna. This road cuts the very center of the ancient city of "Bononia" (or "Felsina" as it was called during the Etruscan age). The palace is inside the ancient city walls just in front of the beautiful Basilica of Santa Maria dei Servi. Piazza Maggiore and all the historical center is just a few minutes walk away. and of course the kaleidoscopic mix of places where to eat that makes Bologna (also called "the Fat") so famous in Italy and the world for its food.
