I Portici Hotel
Bologna, Italy
I Portici occupies Palazzo Maccaferri on Via Indipendenza, where Art Nouveau details sit alongside contemporary hotel interiors. Rooms range from compact options to spacious suites, with some retaining Liberty-style decoration and others taking a more modern approach. The hotel’s restaurants and cafés give it a lively connection to the city, and its fine-dining restaurant is worth booking separately. Compare room sizes and bed configurations carefully, especially if choosing one of the smaller historic categories.
