Verona Neighborhoods: Where to Stay
Verona is more than Juliet's balcony. It's a city of pink marble streets, a 2,000-year-old arena that still hosts opera, and a pace of life that invites you to slow down and savor.
Città Antica
#1 PickHistoric center within the ancient Roman walls, near the Arena.
Local Insight
"The Arena opera experience is magical, but the steps are hard marble. Rent a cushion (or bring a folded jacket) or splurge on numbered seats with cushions provided."
Top Hotels
Due Torri Hotel, Hotel Accademia, Relais de Charme Il Sogno di Giulietta
Veronetta
#2 PickAcross the Adige River, this is Verona's university district.
Local Insight
"Climb to Castel San Pietro (or take the funicular) for the iconic postcard view of Verona. Go at sunset—the city glows pink and gold."
Top Hotels
Hotel Giberti, Hotel Trieste, Novo Hotel Rossi
San Zeno
#3 PickQuiet area anchored by the stunning Romanesque Basilica of San Zeno.
Local Insight
"The Basilica of San Zeno is Verona's hidden gem—the bronze doors and Mantegna altarpiece rival anything in Florence, with a fraction of the visitors."
