Ferrara was a haven for the arts during the Renaissance and much of this is still evident today. The powerful Este family held court in the multi-turreted Estense Castle, protected by a moat and drawbridge, and they were illustrious patrons of artists and authors.
Bellini, Piero della Francesca and Titian all perfected their strokes here, and the university houses parts of Ludovico Ariosto’s original manuscript of his epic poem – Orlando Furioso – containing allegorical references to his sponsors. The family is also depicted in Palazzo Schifanoia’s detailed fresoces, and the Palazzo dei Diamanti gallery displays works commissioned from the School of Ferrara.
Some Este tombs are in Corpus Domini Monastery and another is in the ornate cathedral whose three-gabled façade overlooks the crenellated town hall. Both line Piazza di Trento e Trieste, the main square where locals come to socialise. Another popular square is green Piazza Ariostea.
The Este strengthened their position through marriage alliances with the influential Borgia, Medici and Gonzaga families, but they didn’t have it all their own way. Ferrara’s well-preserved city walls were built for defence, and ardent opponent of the Renaissance, Savonarola, was born in this UNESCO World Heritage city.
Surrounding cobbled streets house many luxury Ferrara hotels, cheap apartments and B&Bs near the train station, available on Booking.com.

A compact walkable city filled with Renaissance buildings and unique cuisine from the Renaissance. Locals were proud of their city -- passionately proud. The bus drivers were helpful, and the locals were helpful and friendly.

An old walled town with an amazing Castle and a great art gallery (on a par with Bologna). A day trip to Comacchio and Ravenna is about 200km and well worth taking the time to see the Po Estuary and the Ravenna mosaics. I hired a car from Morini for Euro 45 and 15 for fuel. Hire a bike and view the palaces and museums as well as ride around the outside of the town walls.

We spent 2 days and nights in Ferrara and it was a rewarding visit. If you are going to stay in Ferrara, we highly recommend Triquetra - rooms for rent for location, value, cleanliness, comfort, the "coffee room" and especially the host Antonino. The town has numerous sites & museums which are almost all included in the MyFerrara pass which, for 22 euro a person for 3 days and 2 nights, also covers your city tax of 1.5 euro p.p. a day (after a little paperwork at the B&B). The medieval streets of the old town are interesting to wander in - they have a very 'real' feel. Sightseeing highlights are climbing the Lions Tower in the Castle, the Palazzo Schifanoia, Casa Romei and the Archaeological Museum. Also the small Cathedral museum for it's collection of scribed and illuminated texts. Unfortunately the cathedral is under heavy renovation at the moment so it's difficult to see much. For dinner, you must try Osteria I Quattro Angeli on the square behind the castle - get the lamb chops (if you eat lamb chops)...amazing. Also, very nice service staff.

While definitely secondary to to the larger cities of Bologna and Verona (the two main cities on my itinerary), Ferrara is also worth visiting for a day or so. (I can't compare it to Parma or other similar-sized cities in the vicinity unfortunately.)
It has an attractive historical centre that's nice to walk around. The main attraction is the castle, which is a museum, but there are other worthwhile museums in the city. Particularly Palazzo Schifanoia, with its impressive frescos. And the long alleys of the old Jewish quarter were interesting.
Everything! In my opinion, this is arguably one of the best hotels I’ve ever stayed in in Europe. Not just Italy Europe!
The price is extraordinary for its location, quality of room (including the shower…lol… it matters :-), the €10 all day, bicycle rental, and the quality of the staff.
There was nothing about this place that I would change.
If you are going to a Ferrara, this is the place to stay.
Located just opposite the train station. Perfect for us as we were travelling each day by train. It was about a 10-15 minute walk from town, although plenty of buses during the day (not so good at night). Restaurants can be busy in Ferrara, so suggest booking for the evening.
Hotel very clean and recently refurbished. Friendly and helpful staff - especially the guy running the bar.
Nice hotel for a short stay visiting Ferrara or just passing by. It's close to the highway exit, there are restaurants and supermarkets in the surroundings. It is a relatively modern clean hotel. The rooms are well decorated with all you need. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom was clean. Free parking. Very friendly staff!
Great value for money.
The room was very comfortable and conveniently appointed, with great decor.
The hotel is on the second floor, and there's no elevator, but the staff carried my bags up and down the stairs. It is located very close to the train station, and a nice walk to the center of town.
Breakfast was excellent, including hot eggs and a variety of pastries.
The hotel is a few hundred meters from the cathedral and from the main (cheap) parking in Ferrara (most of the center is pedestrianised). The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable. Although there was no food offered, there are a number of good places to eat within a few meters of the front door. The hotel is very good value for money.
Amazing breakfast, one couldn't ask for more.
Breakfast staff were so friendly & very helpful.
The rooms were spotless, thanks to the housekeeping staff.
The hotel location was close to Ferrara town centre & about a 15 minute walk to the train station. This being convenient for day trips elsewhere.
wonderful staff; hotel in perfect location. Room very clean and comfortable, very comfy bed, too. I was sick for the first three days of my stay and they brought me a breakfast tray each morning, delivered my Uber Eats meals to my room and were unfailingly kind and helpful throughout my stay.
We had a nice big room. Staff was friendly and helpful. Great restaurant recommendations. Location was very good, 10 minutes walking from the city center and free parking in front of the hotel. We had a great time in Ferrara.
Small, quiet hotel, close (walking distance) to center of Ferrara. Nice room. Very good breakfast. Good value for money. It was our second time there and should we return to Ferrara, will for sure try to stay there again!
The hotel is located right in the heart of Ferrara, the personnel is friendly and helpful. The breakfast had many varieties to choose and all were delicious.
