The sprawling Palazzo di Varignana resort, originally an ornate 18th-century villa, is set in the rolling hills east of Bologna. A relaxing holiday awaits here, not only because of its various outdoor pools, spacious wellness centre and numerous sporting options, but mainly because you will enjoy a sea of space here. Palazzo di Varignana's villas are set in the natural spectacle of large gardens and hills. Restored old country houses brought back to life, they offer you a holiday brimming with relaxation, privacy and tranquillity.
Caractère clients receive a welcome aperitif and a welcome gift is waiting for them upon arrival with local and organic products from their farm.
Staying in a Meneghetti villa means enjoying the same refined gastronomy as the hotel guests. Dine at the Michelin-recommended Meneghetti Restaurant with seasonal dishes and perfectly paired wines, or opt for a lighter lunch at Oliveto, the poolside lounge bar. Craving summer cocktails by the sea? Head to the Boho Beach Club on the private beach. For a cosy aperitif, there’s the Lobby Bar, and if you prefer absolute privacy, the chef will gladly serve dinner right in your villa.
The villas are located in the Emilia Romagna region, 20 km east of Bologna. From the top of a hill you have a wonderful view of the vineyard and beautiful sunsets.
Bologna's airport is 30 km away.
A transfer from the airport to the hotel costs 60 euros each way.
Remarkably, these villas are completely detached and private, yet are part of a vast resort. So you can enjoy the hotel's facilities at the same time, with 3 restaurants, several swimming pools and wellness and sports facilities.
