The Piazza delle Erbe, Verona’s vibrant market square surrounded by medieval and Renaissance buildings, lies just beyond, offering a glimpse into the daily rhythm of local life. Meanwhile, the riverside location provides excellent opportunities for romantic evening walks along the Adige, where the city’s historic bridges and illuminated buildings create a magical atmosphere that captures the essence of Italy’s romantic spirit.

The property’s intimate size allows for personalized attention that larger establishments simply cannot provide, creating an atmosphere where guests feel less like temporary visitors and more like welcomed friends returning to a cherished Italian home. Whether you’re planning a romantic getaway in the city of Romeo and Juliet, a cultural exploration of northern Italy’s treasures, or a refined business trip with a touch of Italian sophistication, Casa Archi – Balcone sul Fiume stands as an exceptional choice for discerning travelers seeking to experience Verona’s timeless charm from a position of comfort, beauty, and authentic local connection.

  The view and the attention to details in the apartment
  
  What could be improved: The optional parking is quite messy – the spot is not granted and you don't get your money back if it's occupied.
  Very little toilet paper, and one of the towels had a big black atain

  What could be improved: nothing all good

• Denise from United Kingdom – 9 February 2023 (9/10)

  This is a lovely little apartment in Verona. It was warm and cosy on our arrival and stayed warm for our whole stay. It’s right by the river and you can sit on the balcony and enjoy the views. The bed was comfy and the apartment was quiet so we slept really well. Communication with the owner was excellent and she provided brilliant instructions for the self check in (which we always prefer). I would recommend the car park on offer for €10 per day. It’s really convenient so made unloading luggage to apartment very easy and it’s behind a locked gate. The apartment is in a great location for exploring Verona and it’s close to lots of bars and restaurants. We’re already looking forward to our return
  
  What could be improved: We liked everything

• James from United Kingdom – 23 November 2022 (9/10)

  It was a beautiful old building in a beautiful city. Good communication from the owner. Close to the centre and a little supermarket and great bakery round the corner if your cooking yourself

• Brent from New Zealand – 28 September 2022 (9/10)

  the location and view from the small balcony are superb. Paola was a great host and very helpful. Easy walk to historic Centre and closer still the heart of San Zeno great for bars & restaurants.
  
  What could be improved: The mezzanine bed is a bit difficult and low height, you just have to be more careful.

• Dave from United Kingdom – 9 August 2022 (9/10)

  Loved being by the river and taking the short walk in to the old town.
  I didn't get their name, but the help we got was great including cushions for opera, luggage storage and sorting taxi.
  We would definitely use the apartment again if back in Verona.
  
  What could be improved: Need to be agile to use all of the stairs. Hot water a little hit and miss. Neither an issue for us this trip.

• Judith from United Kingdom – 10 October 2022 (8/10)

  location

• Brandusescu from Romania – 9 December 2024 (8/10)

  What could be improved: The heat did not worked, there was 18^ in the room in December. If it wasn’t this issue, everything it was perfect.
