My fiancee and I spent 2 nights at B&B Benelli during a 5 week trip of Europe, including 3 weeks in Italy. We stayed in B&B type accomodation for most of the trip and this was hands-down the best accomodation that we experienced. Some highlights: - The room is spacious, clean and very comfortable. - The private bathroom is large,... More

My husband and I recently spent 6 days at BNB Benelli in Bologna. The BNB is an easy walk from the train station and also walking distance to the sights, restaurants and shopping in old town Bologna. Our room was spacious, comfortable and immaculately clean. But the highlight of our stay there was our hostess, Roberta Manganelli. She was delightful!... More

After reading the reviews in Tripadvisor, we booked 5 nights with Roberta in her wonderful B&B in Bologna. And I have to say, the reviews were, if anything not enthusiastic enough! Roberta is the perfect hostess, warm and welcoming! The room in her top floor apartment near the old center of Bologna is large and comfortable, with a generous private... More

While we have been to Italy many times, we had somehow never been to Bologna. This trip, we decided to go from Rome to Bologna by train and it turned out to be wonderful decision. Firstly, Bologna is marvelous - the food, the porticos, the historic centre (especially around St. Stefano). It is vibrant, but more relaxed than other Italian... More

Dear friends, thank you. It's true that Bologna is a wonderful city and that Santo Stefano's Church is a magic place as is Santo Stefano Square, especially in the evening when it lights up. However, there are other corners, churches and squares that aren't mentioned in tourist guides and that only the Bolognese people know. I like to share these... More

We had a wonderful time in Bologna, and staying at Roberta's place made it even more special. Great room, huge bed, beautiful bathroom, rooftop window.. The breakfast is probably the best thing though, everything was hand-made and delicious. We were two chefs coming from Paris, and we had great exchange with Roberta about where to eat, what to taste or... More

Thank you for choosing to stay in my B&B during your food-tour. When you told me you were two chefs, I thought my breakfasts would not reach your expectations, however your compliments gave me great pleasure. Paris is not so far away and my husband and I might decide to come and visit you in your restaurant Fish La Boissonnerie... More

In all our years of travel this is our BEST B&B EXPERIENCE EVER! From the warmest welcome upon arrival to the final hug on departure, beautiful Roberta looked after us so well we felt like members of her own family, and we did not ever want to leave. We spent six wonderful nights at Roberta's elegant B&B and we cannot... More

Roberta's apartment is on the top floor of a stylish block in a great location 10 minutes from the main square. There is a lift and the room she rents out has its own enterance. Everything was very modern and comfortable, and there is free WIFI. Roberta serves a wonderful breakfast, my personal favourite is the pears in red wine,... More

We stayed at B&B Benelli in December and had an absolutely lovely time in Bologna, because of our gracious host, Roberta. B&B Benelli is conveniently located to the historic area and great restaurants (all recommended by Roberta). Our room was beautiful, immaculate and comfortable. We were greeted each morning with out-of-this-world breakfasts Roberta prepared that included home-made yogurt, fruit compote,... More
