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.
I wasn't planning a stay in Ferrara, but I was towed to the town after my car broke down. This was the closest hotel to where I was left by the tow truck, so booked in.
The staff were amazing. Really helpful and way more help than my insurance company!
The room was comfortable and the breakfast great.
I have a pretty low opinion of Italian hotels, but this one is really good, especially for the money.
Exceptional location in the heart of historical Ferrara. The staff were very friendly, perhaps the most friendly we encountered during our three weeks in Italy. The room was large and I enjoyed the breakfast and the view of the Duomo and Este Castle (Castello Estense di Ferrara) from the dining area. I would easily stay here again.
Absolutely everything was flawless.
The room, bathroom, and all areas were impeccably clean. The bed was exceptionally comfortable. The hotel's proximity to the train station and its not-so-distant location from Ferrara center were extremely convenient. Furthermore, having a supermarket right across from the hotel was a huge plus.
The hotel is very cozy, the room is spacious and super comfortable. It is 100 m from the train station and about 15-10 min walk from the center. They offer a sweet/salty breakfast with everything handmade, and they recommend typical sweets from Ferrara or Italy. The owners are very nice and very attentive at all times.
The staff was very accommodating for last minute booking! The best nights sleep we had in Italy, anywhere! The beds were extremely comfortable! The location was immersed right in the daily culture and vibe within the city. We enjoyed our time there.
The rooms are really really great. Spacious and modern. I recommend to everyone. If I come back to Ferrara for sure I would like to stay in Nazionale hotel. It is also very good located, close to the best places for tourists in Ferrara.
Very nice little apartment designed with the taste.Extremelly easy chek-in and chek-out.Just few minutes from the city center, on foot.And big free parking near!
And the amazing Ferrara around the corner.
Personnel were wonderful, helpful, room was certainly more than adequate with additional bedding for aching bones. Great breakfast, prompt service. Terrific location in the old city of Ferrara.
The hotel is located close to the highway, this is the best location for a 1 day stay if you are traveling to south Italy - take a rest, sleep, eat breakfast and continue to travel.
Very nice, small hotel in the heart of Ferrara! Breakfast was quite good. Fresh italian coffee was highly appreciated. The location is great, only steps from Castello! Very clean!!!
Everything.. Best staff ever, specially luca,the bartender and everyone at the hotel. Best lokation. Next time i go to italy i will go to ferrera and i thats my hotel. Thanks
