La Casa dei Cedri

Reggio Emilia


Friendly, English-speaking Michele runs this modern B&B in a residential apartment building in the Buco del Signora neighbourhood. If you're not fussed about being in the centro storico, it's close enough, with four wonderful rooms, three of which have balconies. It's a DIY setup (ie, you're on your own here), but there's a stocked kitchen with snacks, water and espresso.
