Bologna’s old city centre is experiencing a new renaissance. There is a great number of tourists who are exploring its Medieval alleys and porticoes, and need to rent a flat in the city centre for their holiday, because they go around only on foot. But for those who drive and wish to explore the city and its hills and outskirts, staying in the old city centre might not be the best solution, as it is not easy to find an inexpensive car park.

The Antico Podere San Luca is in a perfect position for getting about independently by car, on foot or by bus, in a relaxed way. Holidays in our place have a different flavour, because when you come back to your flat from an excursion in the hills or the city, you are welcomed by an atmosphere of silence and quiet.

Each lodging has its own parking space, free of charge  

The parking spaces in the Antico Podere San Luca are free of charge and quite close to the flats. So you will not have to meet further expenses for parking your car. If you’d rather take a bus, the no. 58 bus of TPER stops every 30 minutes right in front of the Podere and brings you, in less than 10 minutes, to Via Saragozza, near the Parco di Villa Spada.
