This was a lovely hotel. We stayed in the suite annex, which is a 1 minute walk from the main hotel. Beautiful, comfortable, and spacious. Location in the main centro area next to the castle was superb. Breakfast was outstanding. We would definitely stay here again!

Location, Location, Location. I paid extra for the view of the Castello, and it did NOT DISAPPOINT. Aside from quality service, a great breakfast with AMERICAN Coffee, exquisite decor (especially the iridescent tiles in the bathroom), and easy walking distance to everything that mattered in Ferrara.

Es war super zentral- sehr freundlicher Service und eine gute Frühstücks Auswahl am Buffett. Die Zimmer sind renoviert und ausreichend groß. Der Blick in den Innenhof ist nicht so toll aber das hat nicht gestört. Es war perfekt für das Wochenende zum Buskers Festival in Ferrara.

Sehr schön renoviertes Hotel mitten im Zentrum, alles in Gehdistanz. Cave es liegt in der ZTL-Zone und die Autonummer muss für be- und entladen vom Hotel an die Polizei gemeldet werden! Bekamen trotz der nachweislichen Meldung ein Knöllchen über € 119.-. Erfreulicherweise hat sich das Hotel gleich um die Annullierung gekümmert. Sehr gutes Frühstücksbüffet!

Great location just across the castle! I was with my bike on a tour so I had to park my bike on another street (the hotel has some residencies a couple of blocks away). The room was on a good condition, quite modern. The breakfast was decent.
