Porta Nuova Central Studio

Porta Nuova Central Studio Overview

First Impressions

Walking up to Porta Nuova Central Studio on Via Gian Matteo Giberti, you immediately get that “I’m in the real Verona” feeling. This three-star property sits right in the historical center, and I mean really in it — not on some touristy periphery where you need to trek everywhere. The building has that authentic Italian charm without trying too hard, you know? It’s the kind of place where you feel like you’ve stumbled onto something locals might actually recommend.

Location That Actually Matters

Honestly, the location is what makes this place special. You’re literally steps from everything that matters in Verona’s historic heart, and couples seem to get this — they’ve rated the location 9.7, which is pretty remarkable. I found myself walking to Juliet’s balcony in about three minutes, and the Arena di Verona is close enough that you can hear the buzz of evening performances. What’s really nice is that despite being so central, the street itself isn’t completely overrun with tourist chaos — there’s still that authentic neighborhood feel where you’ll see locals going about their daily business.

The Studio Space

The room itself is exactly what you’d expect from a well-designed studio setup. It’s compact but thoughtfully laid out, with everything you actually need without unnecessary frills. The space feels modern and clean, though don’t expect sprawling square footage — this is European city living at its most practical. What I appreciated was how they’ve maximized the space without making it feel cramped, and the windows let in plenty of natural light during the day. The setup works particularly well for couples who want a comfortable base rather than a place to lounge around all day.

Neighborhood Vibes

The surrounding area is where this place really shines. You’re on a proper Veronese street where actual residents live and work, not some sanitized tourist corridor. There are local cafes within a two-minute walk where you can grab proper Italian coffee, and small shops that feel authentic rather than designed for visitors. I mean, you’ll still encounter plenty of tourists given the central location, but there’s a nice balance. The evening atmosphere is particularly lovely — you can wander the nearby streets and stumble onto quiet piazzas that feel like little discoveries.

Why Guests Love It

What keeps people coming back here is that perfect combination of location and value. You’re getting genuine historical center access without paying premium hotel prices, and the studio format works well for travelers who prioritize being out and about over room amenities. The 9.6 location score isn’t just marketing speak — you really can walk everywhere that matters in Verona from here. It’s particularly ideal for couples who want to experience the city like locals rather than tourists, with easy access to both the must-see sights and the quieter corners that make Verona special. The whole setup just makes sense if you’re looking for an authentic base in one of Italy’s most romantic cities.

• Carolina from Chile – 4 June 2024 (9/10)

  El apartamento es cómodo, bonito y moderno. Se ubica a unos 10 min caminando de la estación de trenes, se puede llegar caminando al centro histórico de Verona. Las anfitrionas estuvieron siempre atentas a algún requerimiento durante la estadía. El edificio es seguro y los vecinos son simpáticos. Se agradece haber realizado check-in presencial. Es una opción de alojamiento a considerar si volvemos a la ciudad.
