How to Reach the University Residential Center of Bertinoro

The University Residential Center is located at Via Frangipane, 6 in Bertinoro (Telephone: +39 0543 446500 Fax: +39 0543 446599).

Bertinoro lies approximately half-way between Bologna and the Adriatic coast town of Rimini. Here is a map putting Bertinoro in context. For those flying in, the best served airport for arrival is the Bologna Guglielmo Marconi International Airport (BLQ). You may also want to check if you can arrive directly at Forlì airport (FRL) which is much closer to Bertinoro but has very limited scheduled flights.

Another possibility, is to land in Milan, go to the Central Train Station, take a train to Forlì, and from there proceed by taxi to Bertinoro. The train schedules can be found here.

If you arrive at Forlì airport, probably the easiest option for reaching Bertinoro is to hire a taxi. If you arrive at Bologna airport or train station, proceed as indicated below.

This is going to cost you about 140 euros, including highway tolls, but it becomes an affordable option if you share within a group of 3-4 people. For more precise information about the price you can call the Taxi Companies.

Try a 3-star hotel, for example Hotel Paradise.
