Ferrara Hotel in Ferrara

staff is very nice, location is the best in Ferrara, however a few items are needed here: shower has no shelf or ledge or anywhere but the small floor to put anything - bar-soap, shampoo, wash rag, etc; in the room: window screens in all the bedrooms to allow fresh air in without flys and bugs, (this will save energy money too), and also weather stripping insulation around the doors to each rooms because an enormous amount of light (& noise) bleeds in from the hallways; and also inside the rooms: black tape should be installed on all the l.e.d. lights which are annoying at night when trying to sleep - especially the smoke alarm blinking over the bed. the breakfast should have more healthy items too, (currently there are too many sweets, sugar, and caffeine); lastly there is no option to add the breakfast at the discounted rate before arrival, which should be an option when managing your reservation, currently no one can do this if you were unable to do so when initially booking.

I've stayed in the hotel a night, just a week ago. The location of the hotel is perfect. You are in the old town and there are some nice places to visit around. The suite was not at the level of the suite I have expected but I recommend the hotel and Ferrara. The main square and the castle are just there under your nose. You can admire them during the day and after sunset. There are plenty of places with traditional cuisine and if you come from the USA or the UK enjoy the choice of food available. Ferrara is famous for its important Jewish community. There are some old synagogues to visit. I hope to see again Ferrara soon. And if you are eager to discover this city in a book, then I highly advise reading "The Garden Finzi Continis". The story of the book is happening in Ferrara and became a success for decades. You can still find it in all libraries in Italy.
