I Portici Hotel Bologna

Bologna's Hotel I Portici offers a captivating mixture of contemporary luxury and 19th century history. The hotel is, in fact, located within the Palazzo Maccaferri, theater of Bologna's belle époque, when the Eden Kursaal was the city's best known caffè-concerto. A tradition which continues here to this very day, albeit in modern form.

From Via Indipendenza guests gain access to the impressive entrance hall of Hotel I Portici. Here, customers are welcomed by the best in contemporary design. The original spaces have been transformed in over 80 bedrooms, occupying large part of the hotel's five floors and in which technology, functionality and modern comfort live side by side the exquisite Liberty style motifs of the historic building.

Continuing the tradition of dedicating space to the performing arts, the restaurant-theater Eden is a place where the delectable cuisine of Chef Sergio Corvi, combines with music, cabaret, and dinner shows so as to provide entertainment for the eyes, ears and the taste-buds too. Looking out from beneath the characteristic arcades of Via Independenza, are the large windows of the restaurant, conference center, and "Caffetteria", this latter a well established meeting point for hotel residents and Bolognesi alike.

Hotel I Portici boasts three Liberty-style conference rooms in which to host conferences, seminars and business meetings. The elegant and supremely functional furnishings combine with the very latest in technology so as to make Hotel I Portici's conference center one of the most requested event venues in Bologna.
