About

L'Arena Residence

L'Arena Residence sits on Via Luigia Poloni, about 2.3 km from Verona Cathedral. It's a straightforward base for exploring the city on foot — guests mention reaching the historic center and the train station easily. The residence runs a self check-in via WhatsApp, so you can arrive without waiting at a front desk.

Rooms are apartment-style, each with a kitchen (some with a coffee machine), a flat-screen TV, and air conditioning. Free Wi-Fi covers the property, and there's public parking nearby (a paid spot right in front is often available). Pets are allowed, which makes it handy if you're traveling with a dog.

Worth weighing

5 to weigh
  • Self check-in only, no reception — There's no traditional front desk — you check in via WhatsApp. Some guests found the buzzer name different from the residence name, which could be confusing on arrival.
  • Limited check-in window — Check-in is only between 14:00 and 18:00. If your arrival falls outside those hours, you'll need to arrange it with the host in advance.
  • Some rooms share bathrooms — While private bathroom rooms are available, several reviews reference using a shared bathroom — so check your room type before booking if you prefer en-suite facilities.
  • Parking is not on-site — There's public parking nearby, and guests mention a paid spot in front of the building, but it's not a dedicated hotel garage — availability may vary.
  • No on-site restaurant or breakfast — The property is apartment-style, so there's no breakfast service — guests make their own coffee and meals in the kitchen. A vending machine for snacks is available.
