"Beautiful, modern and really well-designed rooms. Loved our view of Castello Estense and that we could easily walk to all sights. Breakfast was a very generous and delicious selection. Staff very friendly and helpful. It'd have been nice to have free luggage storage, like in most other hotels - but, admittedly, the paid lockers were another example of clever design. Will definitely be back next time we're in Ferrara and will recommend to others!"

"Room was a decent size, comfortable and had a pleasant view. All staff were friendly and accommodating. Breakfast was also good with a wide variety of food. We did ask for a quiet room if possible and unfortunately it turned out to be the opposite. Right next to the lift. Lots of noise also coming from the room above that did disrupt our sleep."

"Outstanding in all ways. From personal and friendly pick-up at the airport by our host, to superb breakfast buffet in a glass garden room, featuring house-made specialties (such as fruit sauce made from grapes in the garden), and carefully appointed room in historic building in an interesting, walkable neighborhood outside of central bustle, but a 5 minute walk to all sights."

Delizia Estense

9.6 out of 10, Exceptional, (22)
"It was my second time staying at this hotel. I returned this year because I enjoyed my stay before. Bicycles are available. Safe and secure location. I believe the rooms were once apartments that were converted into hotel rooms, so they are spacious, they have a kitchenette and a very sturdy door. The hotel staff is very nice. Great communication."
