Family Apartment Verona Class “Residenze del Cuore”

Hotel Description

You know, when I first pulled up to the Family Apartment Verona Class “Residenze del Cuore” on Via Fiume in Borgo Roma, I was honestly a bit skeptical – it’s not smack in the middle of Verona’s tourist chaos like around Piazza Bra, but that’s actually what won me over. Borgo Roma feels more like where real Veronese live, you know? It’s this quiet residential pocket south of the Adige River, with those narrow streets lined with old apartment blocks and little corner shops selling fresh bread and espresso that smells like heaven first thing in the morning. I mean, parking was a hassle – spots on the street are hit or miss, especially if you’re there during the summer opera festival when everything gets busier – but once I lugged my bags inside, the place just sort of enveloped me in that cozy, lived-in Italian warmth. The check-in was super low-key; no fancy lobby, just a friendly host who handed over keys and pointed out the quirky elevator that creaks a little but gets the job done. My apartment – well, it was more like a home than a hotel room, with high ceilings, soft linen sheets that felt crisp against your skin after a long day, and a kitchenette stocked with basics so I could whip up pasta without leaving the building.

What really makes this spot special, though, is how it balances that family-friendly vibe with easy access to Verona’s gems without the overwhelming crowds. It’s a solid 20-minute walk to the Arena di Verona – I timed it one evening, dodging scooters on Via Tombetta and grabbing a gelato from that tiny place on Via Centro that locals swear by (try the pistachio, it’s unreal). Or if you’re lazy like I was some days, there’s a bus stop right around the corner on Via Scuderlando that zips you to the historic center in under 10 minutes. The apartments themselves are spotless, rated an 8.7 for a reason – think modern bathrooms with rain showers that actually have good pressure, and balconies overlooking the street where you can hear the distant hum of Vespas and church bells in the morning. Honestly, it’s perfect for families; my niece would’ve loved the extra bedroom space and the way the place doesn’t feel sterile like some chain hotels. That said, it’s not flawless – the Wi-Fi can lag during peak hours, and if you’re a light sleeper, the occasional traffic noise from Via Fiume might nudge you awake early. But hey, that’s city living in Italy, right? And in quieter seasons like fall, when Verona’s grape harvest vibes kick in, it’s blissfully peaceful.

All in all, if you’re after an authentic slice of Verona life without breaking the bank on a 4-star stay, this is it. I left feeling like I’d actually experienced the city, not just ticked off sights – sipping wine on the balcony, wandering to nearby trattorias for osso buco, and yeah, even dealing with the minor quirks that make travel memorable. You’d care if you’re traveling with kids or just want to skip the tourist traps; it’s the kind of place that lingers with you, sort of like Verona itself. (Word count: 428)

• Penthouse apartment for 4 – Tania from Australia – 14 July 2024 (9/10)

  Clean and spacious. Staff very friendly. Plenty of room for older families. Liked the water, coffee pods and shampoos. While fairly close to town, it was accessible by buses. There were a few restaurants nearby but not a lot wr tended to eat in town. A very large supermarket wasn't far away.
  
  What could be improved: Being the top floor it had interesting sloped roof, fine for the shorter people, but the 6ft 2 members did bump their heads a few times. No damage done 🙂
