Welcome to Rooftop Garden, an elegant apartment nestled in Bologna's enchanting historic center. Located on the second floor (with elevator) at Via de' Carbonesi 7, this 80m² sanctuary occupies a former 17th-century convent, preserving authentic architectural character. Please note there are internal steps: a few down to the kitchen, and a few from the living room down to the bedroom and bathroom.
The true gem of this property is its private rooftop garden — your personal escape at roof level, with fragrant jasmine, a peaceful gazebo, and views across the tiled rooftops of the old town. It is an enclosed private terrace rather than a panoramic deck: a green space of your own in the heart of a UNESCO historic centre, perfect for morning coffee or sunset aperitivos. Inside, you'll find a thoughtfully designed bedroom, full bathroom (shower + bidet), bright living room, and equipped kitchen with Nespresso.
Modern comforts include WiFi, air conditioning, iron/ironing board, hair dryer and shampoo. The washer and dryer are located in the private garden, in a dedicated cabinet for your exclusive use, not shared with the building.
Perfectly positioned a few minutes' walk from Piazza Maggiore and the Due Torri. For parking, Garage Farini (Vicolo S. Damiano 3/3a, tel +39 051 266086, ~€45-50/night) is just a few steps away, inside the restricted traffic zone (ZTL). A cheaper paid alternative is the Ex-Staveco car park, outside the ZTL, about a 15-minute walk away. Host Vittorio shares his deep passion for Bologna.
