If you love the atmosphere of
antique residences with lavish history, your choice should be the Hotel
Corona d’Oro (Gold Crown Hotel) constructed at the beginning of 1800 in
the historical Piazza Azzoguidi in the heart of Bologna. At the end of
the XIX century protected by an open glass window, what used to be the
internal courtyard has been transformed into an incredibly atmospheric
room; the walls display the époque of liberty style. There is an
imposing lounge with a majestic arched ceiling and a painting of 15th
century that towers over the consoles, reminiscent of a time of
splendour that these noble buildings have lived leaving the warm
atmosphere.
The guest rooms are decorated according to various periods. However much
you try you will not find two rooms the same: in some you will be
surprised by the ceilings painted with landscape scenes of the 14th
century and in others you will find liberty style ornaments, and some
enjoy the fantastic view of the medieval towers of Bologna. The
bathrooms are small but well equipped.
The Hotel is located in the city centre, right in the elegant via
Oberdan with its fine shops and being the road that guides you to famous
Two Towers (Due Torri) a short distance away. Also Piazza Maggiore is
quite nearby. |
