6 Porte Guesthouse is a recently opened bed & breakfast in Mantua, about a 5-minute drive from the historic centre and the Ducal Palace.
The property is designed for those travelling by car and looking for convenience: parking is free and available directly on site, while a bus stop for the railway station is right in front of the entrance. The rooms, all equipped with a balcony, LCD TV and an underfloor heating and cooling system, range from the double with single beds up to the Junior Suite and the larger family room, suitable for groups or families with children.
In the morning guests find an Italian buffet breakfast, which can be enjoyed in the garden on milder days, while a snack bar remains available 24 hours a day. The location, slightly outside the historic centre, still allows Palazzo Te to be reached within a few minutes, and on weekends makes it possible to take trips to Verona, Lake Garda and Gardaland. A practical solution for those who want to visit Mantua without giving up space and quiet.
The four room types at 6 Porte Guesthouse share some basic features: private bathroom, flat-screen TV, underfloor heating and cooling, and free WiFi connection. Sizes range from 14 sqm for the double and twin rooms to 20 sqm for the family room, passing through the 18 sqm Junior Suite, the most elaborate option in the offer thanks to a separate sleeping area and a small private terrace.
The Double Room with Single Beds and the Double Room mainly differ in the bed configuration, while both overlook balconies with garden views and benefit from soundproofed walls. The Junior Suite adds space and a flexible bed configuration, suitable for small groups, while the Family Room, without a balcony but larger, offers a full bathroom with tub or shower and a view of a quiet street, making it the most suitable choice for those travelling with children.

The largest and most elaborate room type in the property, with 18 sqm spread over a sleeping area with a single bed and a large double bed. It has a private terrace in addition to the balcony, a more open view compared to the other rooms, and a Smart LCD TV with kettle.
This is the largest room in the guesthouse, designed for families or small groups. The private bathroom comes complete with shower, bidet, hairdryer and toiletries, while the room is furnished with a wardrobe, electric kettle and tiled flooring, with a view of a quiet street rather than the garden.
6 Porte Guesthouse offers a range of comforts designed to make the stay easier, starting with free parking available on site and a direct connection to the bus stop in front of the property. The common areas include a garden with outdoor furniture, a sun terrace, sun loungers and deck chairs, a picnic area and the possibility of packed lunches, ideal for those who want to enjoy the warmer days outdoors.

For meals, in addition to the buffet breakfast there is a food service offering fruit, wine/champagne and menus for special diets on request, while a snack bar remains open 24 hours a day for those arriving late or wanting a snack outside regular hours.
6 Porte Guesthouse is located on Via Arturo Frizzi, in a residential area east of Mantua’s historic centre, about a 5-minute drive from the Ducal Palace.

Those looking for the outdoors can head to the Bosco della Fontana Nature Reserve, less than 9 km away, or organise half-day trips to Lake Garda or the Gardaland park, both easily reachable by car.
