Bologna is a city to be experienced slowly.
Amid endless porticoes, warm lights, and quiet alleys, its charm reveals itself in the details: a glass of wine shared in a tavern, a panoramic terrace at sunset, a tower rising among the red rooftops.
A romantic weekend in Bologna is the perfect chance to discover an authentic city, far from conventional destinations—where every corner tells a story and every step becomes part of a memory.
A Charming Stay in the Heart of the City
For those seeking an intimate and refined experience, the historic center offers unique atmospheres.
Walking under the porticoes at sunset, stopping for an aperitif between the squares, or climbing a tower to admire the city from above—every gesture takes on the rhythm of a slower time.
Choosing a stay of charm means privileging authenticity—a place that speaks of history, architecture, and care for the guest rather than luxury itself.
In this sense, Torre Prendiparte offers one of the most evocative experiences: an ancient medieval residence transformed into an exclusive stay for couples, where history becomes part of the journey.
An Itinerary for Two – Art, Taste, and Views
A romantic weekend in Bologna is built around small, shared rituals.
The morning can begin with coffee in Piazza Santo Stefano—the elegant and peaceful heart of the city—and continue through the University porticoes to the “Finestrella” on Via Piella, where hidden canals appear between colorful houses.
For a panoramic moment, the terrace of the Basilica of San Petronio offers a view that embraces the whole city, while the Two Towers remain the most iconic and romantic symbols of its skyline.
In the evening, among soft lights and quiet streets, the taverns of the Quadrilatero offer the most authentic connection with Bolognese life—traditional dishes, local wines, and the pleasure of being together, unhurried.
Experiences to Share
A romantic weekend can turn into a path of shared experiences:
a private dinner in the tower with a view over the city, a guided thematic tour to discover medieval secrets, or a walk among historic workshops in search of flavors and scents to take home.
Those who seek tranquility may choose to stay in the tower itself, surrounded by warm light and the silence of ancient bricks, where even time seems to stop. An experience that combines architectural fascination with the pleasure of living the city as an intimate, personal place—where the tower becomes part of your own story.
