Casa Chicca Verona

Casa Chicca Verona Overview

First Impressions

When I first walked into Casa Chicca Verona, I’ll be honest — the fifth-floor location had me wondering about the climb. But you know what? The elevator works perfectly, and once you’re up there, the views over Verona actually make it worth it. This four-star place sits in the Borgo Milano area, which might not sound glamorous, but it’s genuinely one of those neighborhoods where real Veronese life happens. The building itself has that solid Italian apartment block feel — nothing flashy, but everything works exactly as it should.

The Neighborhood Reality

Here’s what I really appreciated about staying in Borgo Milano — you’re close to the stadium (hence the neighborhood name), but more importantly, you’re in an area with actual grocery stores, cafes where locals grab their morning espresso, and streets that aren’t packed with tour groups. The parking situation is honestly a game-changer if you’re driving; having a guaranteed spot in Verona is like finding gold. I mean, try parking near the Arena di Verona and you’ll understand why this matters so much. The location gets an 8.0 rating from guests, and after spending time here, I get why.

Your Space

The room setup surprised me in the best way — it’s more like staying in a well-appointed apartment than a typical hotel. The space feels lived-in but fresh, with that Italian attention to making even small spaces work efficiently. What really stood out was how quiet everything was, despite being on a main street. The windows do their job, and honestly, after walking around Verona all day, you’ll appreciate having a peaceful place to recharge. The kitchen area isn’t huge, but it’s functional enough if you want to grab some local ingredients from the market and put together a simple meal.

Getting Around and Eating

The bus connections from here are actually better than from some of the more central hotels — you can get to the historic center in about 15 minutes, but you’re also positioned well for exploring areas most tourists never see. There’s a solid restaurant scene in the neighborhood too, though you’ll need to walk a bit to find the really good spots. I discovered this little trattoria about ten minutes away where the pasta was incredible and cost half what you’d pay near Juliet’s balcony. Sometimes staying slightly off the beaten path pays off in ways you don’t expect.

Why Guests Love It

Look, couples rate this place highly for good reason — it’s got that intimate, residential feel that makes you feel like you’re actually living in Verona rather than just visiting. The 9.0 rating reflects something important: when the basics are done really well, you don’t need bells and whistles. The staff knows the area inside and out, the space is comfortable without being pretentious, and you’re positioned to experience both tourist Verona and local Verona. Plus, there’s something satisfying about having your own little corner of the city, complete with that parking spot and easy access to both the historic center and the real neighborhoods where Veronese people actually live their lives.
