Family-friendly vacation rentals in San Donato-San Vitale, Bologna

I stayed in this apartment for 3 days. It is equipped with everything you need in an apartment. Great location to get to downtown with public transit. Thank you Giorgia for your availability

Carolina & Cristina’s place was beautifully decorated , had the comfiest beds and great linen. Each room area had its own privacy and very well decorated. We loved our stay in Bologna , walking to all the beautiful historical sites and eating at the local restaurants. Very conveniently located. They Even provide an area /tools for a stay-in meal. House is fully equipped and stylish.

Mauro’s apartment was very clean and tidy. We felt as if we were home. He was very friendly and supportive. I’d like to stay in his aparment whenever I come to Bologna

The cottage is immersed in nature and exactly as described: you can breathe a lot of tranquility. The outdoor hot tub was wonderful, and the owners took care to let us find the water at a perfect temperature. They were also very helpful in adapting to our needs and schedules, if there is an opportunity we will definitely come back in the future.

Words cannot explain how beautiful this home is! From the warm fireplace to the beautiful furnishings and feel of the home, we loved EVERYTHING about it. Tiziano was so helpful with recommendations and we can’t wait to come visit again and share a bottle of wine with him next time. 10/10 would recommend this Airbnb for anyone looking for a small town home with plenty of small local places to eat/drink.

We had a very joyful stay, host was friendly from the moment we arrived till the moment we left. Loved all the animals and the beautiful scenery. Breakfast was very tasty and fresh. Communication was very easy and we felt right at home.

A great place to stay , with extremely welcoming and helpful staff. A perfect stop over for our family of four.

Rosanna was welcoming and available by WhatsApp during our stay. Central accommodation with easy access to the train station on foot which allowed us to leave the car in the courtyard during our days spent in Bologna and Florence. In the middle of Motor Valley where all car manufacturers are accessible. She recommended nearby restaurants and stores. The place was very clean and the kitchen was perfect for cooking in the evening. We particularly appreciated the Parfin pizzeria (closed on Wednesdays but open on Sunday evenings) a few minutes' drive away, which allows you to take away to eat quietly in the apartment.

Thank you very much, Piero and Everest, who was our contact. We had a problem with our rental car and Everest was kindly able to pick us up at the station. Even without a car, we found it is very manageable with an about 20 minutes walk to the train station. The house is very nice and we loved the nature. And the pie that the hosts prepared for us is to die for! Many thanks for everything, we definitely recommend Piero’s place.

The environment is very nice, the host is very hospitable, like the grandparents of their own home!Breakfast is unbeatable!Every day is a disc.The host also took out his own dinner onion soup and stir-fried vegetables on the first night, warming our heart and stomach. Highly recommended!We will choose this one again!

Mr. Guido is really a super host! Very kind and helpful right away, as soon as we arrived he welcomed us in person and gave us all the information about the accommodation. The apartment is very comfortable, spacious and we found impeccable cleanliness. The kitchen is fully equipped and the refrigerator is super stocked with everything you need for breakfast. There is private parking, the area is very quiet and well served by buses, supermarket, pizzeria bars, restaurants, tobacconists, shops. However, in half an hour on foot you can easily reach the center of Bologna. It was really nice to stay in this B&B, we had a great time. Highly recommended! We'll definitely be back!

Ideal accommodation for a few lovely days in and around Bologna! Arrivederci

Diego was extremely friendly, very welcoming, and responsive to every message I sent. He recommended a fantastic restaurant — the food was absolutely delicious. Without a doubt, if I return to Bologna, I will choose Diego’s apartment again.

Very close to the city center. Perfect place to stay at when you’re wanting to be close to the center and still have your space. Very friendly host!

A great place to stay, located in the center of Bologna. Quiet, clean and comfy. You can eat outside on the balcony when days get warmer. I met Elena’s husband when I arrived, and he was very kind and helpful. Recommended!

We really enjoyed our stay at Casa Bertieri. The apartment, extremely well-located, was charming. Maria is a wonderful host. She took the time to give us some tips and ideas on how to enjoy a true Bologna experience. We would return in a heart beat. Marie and Alain

From a long retired couple... Very enjoyable week's stay during September in Ruth's spacious, clean, comfortable and comprehensively equipped, family oriented villa. Ideal base for local hiking (which we didn't) and surprisingly well located, given its fairly remote position, for sampling good quality nearby restaurants (which we did). Good scope for cultural and shopping trips: eg. Bologna, Faenza, Dozza (delightful) and outlet centres incl. Barberino (convenient and extensive). We found Ruth to be a very welcoming, helpful and accessible host with a ready wealth of local knowledge - a much underrated asset that certainly enhanced our visit. 6Stanco - go for it!

Beautiful house and great experience especially in large groups even with children

We had the most amazing time at Benedetta’s place. It really is a little paradise in the Italian countryside. The swimming pool is lovely, there is a lovely outside area where we ate dinner every night and the house was comfortable (if a little warm). I would advise people that there are lots of mosquitoes, obviously this is the case everywhere in Italy and has nothing to do with the property but make sure you bring lots of spray. I would also say regarding the reviews talking about lack of privacy- for the most part we had no issues with this. There was another family staying in the other property but they were friendly and didn’t bother us. There was one night where another guest arrived and was a little bit intrusive- we weren’t clear whether he was staying or whether he was just a friend who had come to use the pool- but Benedetta messaged us and apologised for this. It is a beautiful space and we were so relaxed and happy to be there. I would definitely recommend this to anyone!

Really nice place! Incredibly beautiful surroundings and nice and clean accommodation. Lovely private terrace. The pool was super nice and clean, and we had it all to ourselves. Valter is very friendly and he was flexible both regarding arrival and departure. Although Valter doesn't speak English, communication works fine with Google Translate. Although Valter and his wife live in the same building, you don't hear much from them, so you feel like you have the place all to yourself. A very small downside; The bed on the 1st floor was a very hard. And from the description, you might think that there is aircondition in both bedrooms. However, I had already read in another review that there is only aircon in one of the bedrooms and a fan in the other. We highly recommend the place and would live to visit again some day.

We stayed as a family in Andrea's beautiful place to stay - a couple with baby, a couple without a child and a grandparent couple, so 6 adults. We had more than enough space and were received very warmly. Apartment, garden and pool were great and we were able to relax well. We particularly enjoyed the oversized table where we always ate. The view is amazing and everything was absolutely clean and well maintained. We experienced Andrea and Alina as very warm and accommodating. We would come back.

Nice and calm place. Well communicated with “must see” location around. Kids loved pool and playground. Thanks!

We just stayed at Giulia's farm and found everything to be fantastic: the interior spaces, the pool and the garden are very well-kept, the cleanliness of the room and the attention to detail. But what makes, in our opinion, this very special place is Giulia's extreme hospitality, friendliness and humanity - which was not at all obvious - which went out of her way to make our short stay perfect, from offering us an aperitif to booking for us also a wonderful apericena in the vineyard on a nearby farm. Thank you very much and see you next time!

Vittorio and Rosa Maria were the perfect hosts and couldn’t do enough for us. Vittorio provided great recommendations for restaurants and places to visit including a winery and cheese making factory. Also we had a fantastic meal cooked by Rosa Maria. It is a good base to visit other cities such as Modena and Parma (and others) by road or by train. The house was spacious, well equipped and felt like more like a family home with books, comfortable sofas a lovely sitting room and bedrooms. We very much enjoyed our stay and had a great holiday. Thank you Vittorio and Rosa Maria!
