L’hôtel est fermée et personne nous a avisé de la situation. Nous sommes arrivés et les portes étaient barrées. Heureusement il y avait une affiche qui disait de voir à l’autre hôtel poutlr les informations. Heureusement notre réservation avait été transféré, mais je ne comprends pas comment on nous a jamais avisé au préalable. C’est un minimum!

Location for hotel -- a short walk from train station and a short walk to the main touristic part of the city -- was a plus. Facility was well-appointed but no frills (reminded me of a Club Quarters hotel) -- definitely catering to business travelers. Staff was helpful in providing restaurant and other suggestions although a wee bit brusque. Would definitely recommend although a bit short on charm.

Modena Principe Hotel

Everything at the Principe Hotel in Modena was nice, clean and the personnel service was exceptional. They were always very serviceable and willing to answer questions, make suggestions, and help us at any moment. About the room, it was way spacious and well equipped with all amenities for travelers. Whoever designed the rooms and preparation deserves good recognition.

Small room in a clean hotel

This is a relatively small and friendly hotel, close to the station and also the historic centre. The staff are helpful, and the room is clean. My only quibble is the size of the room - it’s very tight and the bed is close to the desk. The external shutters were nearly closed and I couldn’t open them, which makes the room dark. It has a lot of merits, and is a good base to see Modena

I unfortunately cannot recommend Hotel Principe in Modena, Italy. Despite its four-star rating, the experience felt more like a two-star establishment. The air conditioning was malfunctioning, leaving the room uncomfortably warm. Additionally, the noise from the busy road made it difficult to relax or sleep. The breakfast was underwhelming, lacking variety and quality. To top it off, the rooms were disappointingly small, making the stay feel cramped and uncomfortable. On a positive note, just two doors down is a Best Western that looked amazing and seemed to offer a much better experience. I would suggest considering that option instead.
