Villino di Porporano

Lovely stay in residential area just outside Parma. Elena was a vety welcoming and gracious host. She helped with dinner reservations and recommended a guide for food tour of area. Property has lovely outdoor space for warmer weather including outdoor pool. Short stay but would definitely recommend and return in the future.

Beautiful property and excellent hosts. We had an amazing stay. The location is quiet and perfect for day trips to Parma and Modena and surrounding areas.

This B and B is spectacular in every way!! The best one hands down we have stayed at in Italy so far!! If you go to Parma this is the place to stay! Elena goes above and beyond any hostess we have had at a bed and breakfast. She is so friendly and warm! She takes the time to make the place welcoming and comfortable, as well as giving you so many useful pointers about the area. She planned our days for us as to where to go and what to see. Her staff is equally as sweet and caring!! The rooms are decorated with her impeccable taste and every nook and cranny is a photo opt! The breakfast is out of this world! All homemade goodies; including vegetable filled pastries, danishes, fresh fruit, assorted breads, cheeses, yogurt and they will make you eggs if you would like! You will be thrilled to be there and will not want to leave!!

Everything was fantastic. So clean, new room with new bathroom. No elevator so stairs are required. Lots of parking and 10 minute car drive into heart of Parma. Would highly recommend this quaint B&B. The outside garden is where breakfast is eaten and allowed for a serene and relaxing morning.

We stayed here for a few nights on a girls trip through Italy and LOVED it. The Villa is adorable and so charming. We spent afternoons at the amazing pool and gardens drinking local wine and eating ice cream. Manu and the other staff were all amazing, so sweet, and always helpful. Manu made reservations for us each night for dinner at local spots that were delicious and always so welcoming! The rooms were adorable (we had 2 for 4 of us). All unique, well designed, clean, and charming yet updated! The air conditioning worked great which was huge given the heat that time of year. The Villa has been restored beautifully. The breakfast was incredible! We enjoyed eating the freshly made breads, pastries, pancakes and of course local Parma cheese and fruits every morning on the patio. Overall we had an incredible stay and was one of the highlights of our trip! The only downside was we had hoped to a cooking class which was how we found the place but understood that it didn’t work out this trip so we will just have to come back!
