Workation in Bologna: the essentials
Students have shaped Bologna since 1088, when its university, the oldest in continuous operation, was founded. The capital of Emilia-Romagna has about 390,000 residents, a well-kept medieval centre and long porticoes, listed by UNESCO in 2021, that let you cross much of the city under cover. Tagliatelle al ragù and mortadella come from here, and food is a daily topic of conversation. The city is a major rail junction with high-speed trains to Florence, Rome and Milan, there are coworking spaces, and Guglielmo Marconi Airport is about 6 km from the centre. July is hot, and in August the city empties noticeably.
Accommodation & Coliving
OpenStreetMap lists six coworking spaces within 10 km of Bologna, including Regus and Spazio 01. That is a solid range for a mid-sized Italian city, with prices likely in the mid range.
