Maps, information, useful tips and suggestions about the city of Bologna and surroundings are already at THE GATEWAY. Though, I will be always available for info, tips and help (I use Whatsap)
Very close to the city center and to train station for day trip (Bologna-Rome: 2h 20min only!)
Next to the apartment is ‘Via Indipendenza’ under the famous arcades of Bologna, where you can shop, sightsee the local market during weekends, taste local cuisine; The apartment has two ‘Gateway’: either you can go to train station on one side or ‘Piazza Maggiore’, ‘2 towers’ (from the top, when weather is good, is possible to see the sea and the Alps) and the ‘Basilica di S. Petronio’ (the fifth largest church in the world and the last big Gothic church realized in Italy) on the other one.
THE GATEWAY is very convenient to visit the old city on foot, lunching at home while relaxing and preparing your meal with products of the Bolognese gastronomy purchased from the most characteristic stores of the city:
as the famous ‘Mercato di Mezzo’, a market town of medieval origins.
Supermarkets, Restaurants and Pizzerias, local markets and attractions are really close to home.

Review Score:   10
Summary: Location was great proximity to the train station which made for easy arrival and departure. It was a 20-25 minute walk to the tourist/piazza areas where we shopped, dined & explored. A very easy trek though! Friendly and welcoming host! Would stay here again!
