All the services and useful information for your stay
From your arrival at the hotel, to your experience inside and beyond I Portici, through to departure: our services accompany every moment of your stay with punctuality, discretion, and attention to detail.
Breakfast at Teatro Eden
At I Portici, waking up is also a gastronomic story.
The breakfast buffet is served in Teatro Eden-Kursaal, the historic 19th-century cafe-chantant on the ground floor of Palazzo Maccaferri, home to I Portici Hotel: a place where Liberty frescoes, designer furnishings, and Belle Epoque echoes meet an outstanding sweet and savory selection. Service is available from 7:00 AM to 10:00 AM on weekdays and from 7:00 AM to 10:30 AM on weekends.
If breakfast is not included in your room rate, you may request it, subject to availability, at a supplement of 18 euros per person.
As an alternative to the buffet, next to the theater you will find Caffè Eden and Pasticceria Eden, open daily and offering the sweet and savory creations of Pastry Chef Vincenzo Digifico.
Additional services
To be welcomed directly at the airport, reach it at the end of your stay, or travel to a business or leisure appointment, you may request a private transfer, subject to availability. We recommend booking in advance, especially for larger groups or special destinations.
Laundry service is available Monday through Friday, excluding public holidays. You may submit your request through the I Portici Hotel app or by completing the paper form in your room. For same-day service, we kindly ask you to contact Reception by 9:00 AM.
Small dogs and cats are always welcome. To receive them at their best, a Pet Kit is available with bowl, bed, and kibble, at an additional supplement on the stay. Please note that pets may not be left alone in the room.
To discover Bologna, the hills, and the surrounding area on two wheels, you may request bicycle rental from nearby shops. Traditional bicycles and e-bikes are available, suited to different itineraries and rhythms.
If you would like a few hours to yourself, you may request babysitting service directly at the hotel. Booking is required at least 5 business days in advance and is available for children aged 1 year and older.
If you would like to care for yourself while traveling, you may request a Yoga/Fitness kit to use comfortably in your room, including mat, blocks, resistance bands, weights, towel, and water.

The included services, the additional services, and then... I Portici Experiences. Not merely activities to add to your stay, but different ways into the I Portici lifestyle.
Some choose a surprise or an in-room beauty treatment, others a tour of Bologna or Motor Valley, a shopping outing or image consultation, a signature dinner or a class at Academy Portici. Every offering opens a different door into the same world, shaped by travel, hospitality, cuisine, care, local identity, and everyday beauty. Freedom lies precisely here: choosing how to be part of it, in your own time and in your own way. To transform your time in Bologna into a unique, original story: yours.
Where the I Portici experience begins
More than a place, I Portici Hotel is a way of living life and travel. An experience that begins in the room, unfolds in the palazzo’s iconic spaces, and takes shape through the services that accompany the stay.
