I Portici
Bologna's lone star under Liberty-era frescoes
Reviewed by Mes Prestiges Editorial Team Last reviewed June 2026
The only Michelin-starred room in Bologna's historic centre, starred since 2012 and set beneath the Liberty-style frescoes of a former 19th-century theatre inside I Portici Hotel. Chef Nicola Annunziata builds three tasting menus of elegant, Mediterranean-leaning plates. A glass-floored 14th-century icehouse offers the city's most romantic table.
Editor's Tip
Ask for the icehouse table over the wine cellar for date nights. Central enough to fold into a Bologna weekend.
