Billie's Flat Red is situated on the 1st floor of the historical Palazzo Melegatti (there are 22 stair steps to the 1st floor!), in a 2.200 years old pedestrian street Corso Porta Borsari, 110m to Piazza Erbe, 250m to Juliet's House, 400m to Arena.
It's a 130 sq m big apartment, with 3 fully A/C double rooms for up to 8 guests.
It 's opened in July 2017, with fancy for art & design, with the utmost attention to history of Verona, conceived and created by an architect and a multimedia artist, so don't expect an ordinary Italian flat, but something UNIQUE!
We are privileged to have two magnificent balconies, made centuries ago entirely of Italian stone, overlooking directly Corso Porta Borsari.
We have 3 double beds for up to 6 guests.
Extra single beds are only for big groups (7 or 8 guests), and for smaller groups only upon request in advance
All 3 double beds are designed by Architect Roberto Nicolis from Verona.
Both the orthopaedic wooden slats and the memory foam mattresses have been made in Italy.
- Room No.1 (ca 27 sqm) comes with a king size bed (180 x 200cm) and with its own private balcony and breathtaking view of Corso Porta Borsari and the side alley, as well as the magnificent palaces and churches. From this balcony, you can enjoy the lively Veronese Movida, especially in the weekend afternoons and evenings.
- Room No.2 is with a queen size bed (160 x 190 cm). This room is very quite, with a relaxing atmosphere and a view of the sky, overlooking a visionary artistic installation.
- Room No.3 is the smallest one (cca 11 sqm). It is with a queen size bed (160 x 190 cm). It is situated in the end of a long corridor, i.e. is the closest to the bathrooms, and has the view of our private and quiet patio.
There is a big vintage ante-bathroom ("anti-bagno" in Italian, is a space that precedes the bathroom ambient, isolating it in a correct and hygienic way from the rest of the house), with its own sink and the huge mirrors.
From this ante-bathroom, two separated bathrooms are accessed. Each bathroom has a toilet and a shower.
Well preserved vintage kitchen of the solid wood (almost 40 years old Maistri Cucine), full equipped and incredibly functional.
Our dinning area is so comfortable and elegant, with its huge French door and its big balcony.
Throughout the flat, except in the kitchen and in the bathroom, the floor is of the local Red Verona Marble (in Italian: Rosso di Verona).
Both the kitchen and the bathrooms have red colour tile floor and walls.
Through the bathroom you can access our private and quite patio. In the sunny days it's perfect as a solarium, as well as for aperitifs.
Our balconies with no doubt offer one of the most spectacular views of Verona.
From these balconies you can admire two ancient frescoes of the 11th century church San Giovanni in Foro.
Next to the church, as seen from our balconies, is a stylish palace with the bas-relief of the portrait of the Florentine artists from the 16th century.
From our balconies you can see both Porta dei Borsari (Borsari Gate) and Torre del Gardello (Gardello Tower) on Piazza Erbe.
We are on the 1st floor with no elevator (22 stairsteps).
Taxi stops right in front of our building.
The closest enclosed parking is a 7-minute walk from us and costs 16€ per day.
