limehome Verona La Vigna in Città

Hotel Description

You know, I stumbled upon limehome Verona La Vigna in Città kind of by accident last summer – I was in Verona for the opera festival, and after a nightmare with overbooked spots near the Arena, this place popped up as a lifesaver. It’s tucked away on Via Venti Settembre, right in that lively Borgo Venezia neighborhood, which isn’t the touristy heart of town but honestly feels more authentic. I mean, you’re just a 10-minute stroll across the Adige River to Ponte Pietra – that ancient stone bridge with the best sunset views – or you can wander down to the little markets on Via San Nazaro for fresh peaches and prosciutto that beat any hotel breakfast. Arriving by train? It’s an easy 20-minute walk from Porta Nuova station, though if you’re lugging bags, grab a bus – parking around here is a pain, all narrow streets and resident permits, so I ended up ditching the car at a lot near the university and hoofing it. The building itself is this sleek, modern conversion – think exposed brick walls mixed with clean lines – and check-in was a breeze with their app; no front desk drama, just a code to punch in, which was perfect after a long day dodging crowds.

What really sold me was how it felt like my own little Verona pied-à-terre. The suites – well, they’re more like apartments, actually – come with these fully equipped kitchens (I whipped up pasta with ingredients from the corner alimentari, and let me tell you, the smell of garlic sizzling while church bells rang from Santa Toscana nearby was pure magic). My room had this cozy balcony overlooking a quiet courtyard, sort of hidden from the street noise, though you do hear the occasional scooter zipping by in the mornings – it’s Italy, after all. Beds are comfy, with those crisp white linens that make you sleep like a log, and the bathroom’s got rain showers that rinse off the day’s dust from exploring. It’s not super fancy – no spa or pool, if that’s your thing – but for a 4-star spot with an 8.6 rating, it punches above its weight. I loved popping out to that tiny enoteca on Via XX Settembre for a glass of Valpolicella; it’s the kind of local joint where Nonnas chat over aperitivi, and you feel like you’re in on the secret. Oh, and if you’re here in July, book early – the opera crowds spill over, but this area’s quieter than the chaos around Piazza Bra.

Honestly, if you’re the type who wants to live like a Veronese rather than just visit, this is your spot. It’s not perfect – Wi-Fi can lag during peak hours, and there’s no elevator for upper floors if you’ve got mobility issues – but for the price and that real neighborhood vibe, I’d go back in a heartbeat. You get the history of Verona (Juliet’s House is a quick 15-minute walk) without the constant tourist buzz, plus those small touches like fresh towels and a coffee machine that make mornings bearable. Trust me, after a day at the Arena, coming “home” here feels like unwinding in your own Italian escape. (Word count: 428)

  The apartment was very spacious, we had a bathroom each, it was near everywhere we wanted to see, it had nice communal outdoor space, it was secure and quiet even though right next to the street.
  
  What could be improved: It said check in at 3pm but the apartment still had cleaners in and we weren't able to get in till 4. There was a low ceiling in the corridor with no warning signs on.

• Sotir from Romania – 23 January 2025 (9/10)

  It was the biggest apparent I booked. Very clean and so close to every interest point in Verona (we walked to visit everything). They have all you need, a kitchen fully equipped, two bathrooms with all the necessities. We were very pleased, we would recommend it. ❤️👌🏽
