You will never – repeat, never – stay anywhere else like this. Forget the B&B tag: you don't just get a room here, you get an entire 900-year-old tower (Bologna's second tallest). The living area (bedroom, kitchen and lounge with newly renovated bathroom) is spread over three floors and there are nine more levels to explore, with outstanding views from the terrace up top.
The price includes breakfast, a welcome drink on the panoramic terrace and a personal tour of the tower with the convivial owner, Matteo Giovanardi. For another couple of hundred euros, you can have a private dinner catered by a professional chef or a private jazz concert. Find a millionaire to shack up with and pretend you're an errant medieval prince(ss) for the night!
