BB Opera

Roberto, the owner, was flexible and helpful, and the location made it easy to explore Parma. Everything we wanted to see was just minutes away on foot. Our room was roomy and cosy, with good-quality towels, a TV, and air conditioning that was a real help in the June heat. We also had the freedom to take fruit, coffee, or water whenever we felt like it.

I paid €60 for a night alone in room 2, one of four rooms. It's not cheap, but the place is elegant, and fruit, juice, yogurt, cake, water, tea, and coffee are available anytime. Breakfast is sweet, with fresh pastries. The owner was very welcoming and even drove me to where I needed to go when I left. The B&B is in the city center, on the first floor, and there's no elevator. The room has Wi-Fi, air conditioning, and a television. Watch the shower, though: turn it all the way and the water gets very hot.

Roberto gave us helpful ideas for dinner and even drove us to the train. There were fresh pastries at breakfast, along with fruit, juice, and coffee for us to use. It was a perfect place for our short visit to lovely Parma. I'd recommend it.

Breakfast was at the little café next door, which suited us because we could eat whenever we liked. The cappuccino was fantastic, and the croissants were flaky and delicious. Back at the B&B, there was a common area with coffee, tea, snacks, and juice available around the clock. The rooms aren't fancy, but they were very clean and comfortable, and the Wi-Fi was strong. Mossimo, the owner, was a wonderful host, and his tips for places to see and restaurants were impeccable. You're right in the heart of Parma, with plenty to do, see, and eat just outside. We'd absolutely stay again.
