Residence Alcorso

Residence Alcorso is an aparthotel in the heart of Mantua’s historic centre, on Corso Umberto I°, about 450 metres from Palazzo Ducale and less than 1.5 km from Palazzo Te.

The apartments, equipped with air conditioning and free WiFi, are designed for those who want to move around independently: each unit has a full kitchen with hob, refrigerator, dishwasher and coffee maker, as well as a private bathroom with toiletries and hairdryer. Soundproofed walls and an independent entrance guarantee a good level of privacy, while a flat-screen TV with satellite channels completes the amenities.

The property is particularly suited to couples and solo travellers looking for a convenient base to explore the old town on foot: Piazza delle Erbe, the Cathedral and the Rotonda di San Lorenzo are all just minutes from the door. The reception keeps reduced hours on public holidays, so it’s advisable to communicate your arrival time in advance.

Location & what to see

Residence Alcorso is located on Corso Umberto I°, one of the liveliest streets in Mantua’s historic centre, declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site together with Sabbioneta. Around the property, there is a string of bars, cafés and small restaurants: Caffè Mirò is 100 metres away, while the restaurant Cortaccia-Biocucina is just 40 metres from the entrance. The area, pedestrian in its central section, is among the busiest in the city both during the day and in the evening.

Mantua’s railway station, useful for reaching Verona or Modena, is 650 metres away, while Verona-Villafranca Airport is about 25 km away. Couples particularly value this location, giving it a score of 9.7.

Beyond the historic centre, guests staying at Residence Alcorso can spend half a day at the Rotonda di San Lorenzo and the Cathedral, both a few minutes’ walk away, or venture out to the Bosco della Fontana Nature Reserve, about 6 km away, for a walk in nature. In summer, the shores of the lakes surrounding the city and boat trips on the Mincio are a popular alternative, while in winter markets and events in Piazza Sordello bring life to the centre.
