Living Place Hotel Bologna: A New Summer of Outdoor Lifestyle and the New Vivi Sporting Club
It is in this spirit that the 2026 journey of Living Place Hotel Bologna begins: a transformation that looks beyond business travel and guides the hotel towards a new identity as a Lifestyle Urban Resort with the new Club Vivi. A brand-new outdoor experience where leisure, sociability and movement come together, a new concept and a new way of experiencing the hotel, designed for both guests and the local community, and able to reinterpret the urban stay in a contemporary way. Vivi is the new way to experience Living Place.
OUTDOOR EXPERIENCE: A NEW LIFESTYLE POOL FOR SOCIAL MOMENTS AND LEISURE TIME
The restyling of the outdoor areas reshapes the rhythm of the day: no longer simply a hotel with an outdoor pool, but a place to enjoy quality time, with an informal and welcoming feel and a relaxed atmosphere. The poolside becomes an open-air lounge, complete with pool bar and sunset DJ sets, surrounded by a solarium, informal seating areas and an ambience inspired by the mood of urban beach clubs.
Club Vivi is a fluid, harmonious space designed to accompany every moment of the stay, from an afternoon of relaxation to summer evenings dedicated to social connection and lifestyle experiences, corporate events with team-building activities, or simply switching off during one of the many themed evenings organised by the hotel. It is a new outdoor setting that carries you through the day and invites you to savour every minute of your time.
CONTEMPORARY FOOD & BEVERAGE: WHEN TASTE BECOMES A LANGUAGE
Vivi finds its fullest expression at the table: a reimagined contemporary F&B concept, developed in collaboration with the prestigious international agency TripleB, created to wrap convivial moments in an atmosphere of natural ease while giving a clear new direction to the dining spaces. The idea is a modern, fresh and social-friendly offering, capable of bringing together wellbeing and quality. A cuisine that balances wellness and flavour becomes a rhythm in itself: light dishes, carefully curated pairings and a high standard of service. It is a gastronomic journey in which presentation matters just as much as taste. Elegant aperitifs on the patio terrace allow guests to enjoy Bologna framed by a bright, contemporary veranda, comfortable even in the height of summer. The setting is equally ideal for informal outdoor dinners shared with friends, or for more structured poolside events, whether corporate or leisure-focused, conceived as stylish occasions with the pool as their natural backdrop.
WEEKEND EXPERIENCE: FAMILIES, ACTIVE TRAVELLERS, AND THE CITY WITHIN EASY REACH
At the same time, the repositioning towards a Lifestyle Urban Resort also builds on the idea of the weekend experience: a quick urban escape with everything needed to relax, made all the more convenient by the hotel’s strategic location. It is an offering designed to welcome different types of traveller, ideal both for those looking for generous family-friendly spaces and a slower pace, and for digital nomads or guests who travel with energy and purpose. Living Place also remains fully committed to sports lovers and active travellers. Thanks to the dynamic vocation already embedded in its facilities, those seeking a sport club experience will be spoilt for choice when it comes to making the most of their energy, from sports courts and a fully equipped gym to a refreshing swim in the pool. This vision looks even further ahead to 2027, with another ambitious restyling project planned for the sports centre.
Living Place Hotel Bologna is writing a new summer story. A season shaped by moments, sensations and details. An experience embraced by new outdoor spaces designed with natural materials and soft lighting. An exclusive and secluded prime lounge that could become part of your next getaway.
