The staff were very professional, friendly and helpful. A very nice breakfast was included. Coming off the highway, it seemed somewhat industrial, but once we arrived at the hotel and started exploring the town- it turned out to be very charming. We would highly recommend this hotel.

Family run hotel in the heart of Ferrara
Nice small family run hotel right in the heart of Ferrara near everything you want to see as well as some very good restaurants all within walking distance. The Castle is literally right around the corner. Great place and neighborhood to stay in. We would definitely go back here.

The hotel is right in the centre of town, opposite the Castle. It has all the comforts and rooms are quite updated. There is also a mini-bar with decent prices (1euro a little bottle of water in comparison to 3euros at NH). When i arrived for checking, I was welcomed by the scent of home cooked cakes which I then found the following morning for breakfast: the owners are really helpful and kind. Really recommend this hotel.

Gorgeous hotel in great location
My stay here was so restful! The hotel is in a beautiful old building with vintage furniture to match. The staff were friendly and helpful. The breakfast buffet contained a good variety of food. The location couldn't be better, twenty minutes' walk from the station (and on bus route 6 - buy a ticket from he train station), literally around the corner from Castello Estense (€14) and only minutes from the cathedral and lots of shops and bars. It's also not far from the Biblioteca Ariostea (free) and the Archeological Museum (€6). Highly recommended.

central location, but quiet.
This is a welcoming hotel. Although I arrived a little early, I was able to book in and use my room. All staff were pleasant and most efficient. There is interesting artwork displayed on the walls, which makes it much more of an individual place. There is a lift. The breakfast was superb, taken in a lovely high-ceilinged breakfast room. Despite being located right in the centre of Ferarra, only a minute away from the castle, the hotel is quietly situated. You could not find a more convenient location. There are buses from the train station, or you can walk in under 30 minutes.
