Casa Isolani

Bologna

Occupying two meticulously renovated historic residences (one superbly located mere steps from Piazza Maggiore; the other at Via Santo Stefano 16), Casa Isolani offers a bevy of well-equipped, good-value city-centre rooms, many with original details like terracotta ceilings and period furnishings. It's a DIY choice (no reception or personal services), but there are some epic Bologna views on offer.

No breakfast is served – you get a coupon for a nearby cafe – but there is a capsule coffee machine and tea.
