Bologna's tiki temple under the via de' Musei porticoes
Reviewed by Mes Prestiges Editorial Team Last reviewed June 2026
Le Stanze occupies the 16th-century former chapel of Palazzo Bentivoglio, keeping the vaulted ceilings, frescoes and ornate columns intact above a modern bar and bistro. It plays the contemporary key with wine by the glass, well-made cocktails and an aperitivo buffet, filling fast from early evening. Few rooms in Bologna make a more dramatic backdrop for a drink.
Editor's Tip
Come for aperitivo before 8pm to take in the frescoes before the crowd; one of the city's most striking settings.
