The nearest rental stations around BolognaFurther offers in Italy: The most popular rental locations

In terms of size, Bologna is the seventh most populous city in Italy and the capital of the Emilia-Romagna region in Northern Italy. With ancient antecedents, the city still follows the original collonaded medieval grid but is certainly not rooted in the past. Home to 150 different nationalities, Bologna is often referred to as the Spanish city because of its left-wing politics (as well as its red-tiled roofs) and the Fat City because of its fabulous cuisine. Bologna is an Italian city with many facets. Apart from offering some of the best food in Italy, campervan hire in Bologna is also the perfect base to explore the iconic Italian Lakes.

Finding the ideal campervan or motorhome for hire in Bologna will be far easier than choosing your favourite pasta dish in the Fat City. Our user-friendly and intuitive website is simple to operate, and there's a handy comparison tool for sorting vehicles based on size, availability and price.

You'll need a permit to drive in a ZTL, and the penalties are steep if you don't have one.
