Raphael’s in Verona Locazione turistica Overview

First Impressions

Raphael’s in Verona Locazione turistica is one of those places that surprises you a little — in the best way. It’s a three-star property, so you’re not walking in expecting grand chandeliers or a rooftop bar, but what you do get feels genuinely well put together. The building sits on Via Raffaello in the Borgo Milano district, and there’s something quietly residential about the street that I actually liked. It felt like staying somewhere real, not just another anonymous hotel block.

Location & Neighborhood

Borgo Milano is a bit west of the historic center, which some people might hesitate over — but honestly, it works out fine. The neighborhood has a lived-in, local feel that you don’t always get when you’re right in the tourist thick of things. Verona’s old town is reachable without too much effort, and the area around the Stadio Bentegodi is easy to navigate. Couples especially seem to take to this spot — the location rating for two-person trips sits at 8.7, which tells you something about the vibe.

Practical Perks

One thing worth flagging straight away: there’s free on-site parking. I know that sounds like a small thing, but if you’re driving into Verona — which plenty of people do, especially coming from Lake Garda or the Dolomites — it genuinely takes a weight off. Finding parking in Italian city centers can be its own little adventure, and not always the fun kind. Having a guaranteed spot here is, well, sort of underrated as a perk.

The Stay Itself

The accommodation is set up as a locazione turistica, which in Italian terms means it’s more of a tourist apartment or short-stay rental setup than a traditional hotel — so expect a more independent, self-contained experience. That suits a lot of travelers, actually, especially if you like having your own space and coming and going on your own schedule. The overall guest rating sits at 9.2, which for a three-star place is genuinely impressive and not the kind of number you see unless people are consistently leaving happy. It suggests the hosts are paying attention to the details.

Why Guests Love It

I think what makes Raphael’s in Verona Locazione turistica work is that it doesn’t try to be something it’s not. It’s a well-located, well-regarded three-star option in a city that can get expensive fast, especially during the opera season at the Arena. You’re getting a high-quality stay without the inflated price tag that comes with being right on Piazza Bra. The location score of 9.0 from recent guests backs that up — people aren’t just tolerating the neighborhood, they’re actively rating it well. If you’re after a comfortable, no-fuss base for exploring Verona — Romeo and Juliet’s city, after all — this is a solid choice that’ll leave you with more euros for a decent Amarone at dinner.

Reviews of Raphael’s in Verona Locazione turistica

  • Sergey from Kazakhstan – 5 July 2024 (10/10)

    These apartments come highly recommended for their excellent qualities. They offer the best location and ensure a pleasant stay for guests. Conveniently situated just 10 minutes away from the railway station, they are easily accessible. Moreover, the owner, Mr. Marco, is known for his extreme friendliness and hospitality, which creates a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The feeling of being at home in these apartments is truly heartwarming.

  • Dmytro from Czech Republic – 27 May 2024 (10/10)

    Cozy apartment in nice neighborhood. Located next to stadium and walking distance from bus/train station and city center. Supermarket is few minutes walk as well as few good pubs.
    Amazing owners, communication went smooth starting from the check-in/key handover, very friendly and happy to help.
    There is very informative and up to date booklet with local tips on food, events, transportation, etc.
    Will definitely consider this accomodation first for my next Verona trip.

  • Michelle from New Zealand – 14 September 2023 (10/10)

    Marco was so kind to accommodate our very late arrival, and even picked up from the train station.

    What could be improved: While it’s not in the old part of town, that means more walking to the sights. But it’s so convenient to the train station so it was easy to be able to walk there when we left.

  • Declan from Ireland – 10 August 2023 (9/10)

    The location is amazing, not far from the centre of Verona. Everything is within walking distance and there are many places where you can eat in the area. The host was wonderful and gave us many tips on what to see in the area.
