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.
The location is an awesome spot to explore Ferrara. A short walk to the castle and restaurants and bars and next to the palazzo dei diamanti.
I would also commend the hotel's communication, how easy check in and all the processes were, and Roberto was helpful (e.g helping is us turn on the big TV in the excellent common room!)
To get breakfast included was great and the communal areas are very nice. It is an excellent budget friendly hotel, you very much get value. I would recommend.
A fairly compact, clearly family-run hotel, with positive personal touches evident throughout - in decor of public rooms, contemporary art on display (not entirely my taste but the point was having quality examples there (and what it said about the owners), well chosen music (jazz/classical), great breakfasts. Very helpful staff - and a near perfect location close to the Estes castle and rest of historic central area - of this rematkable and distinctive city.
The hotel exceeded all my expectations, and I highly recommend staying in this hotel in Ferrara. The hotel is very close to the train station, and just few minutes (around 10) walking from the city center. The staff was very nice and helpful, and I particularly acknowledge because they provided a gluten free option for me for the breakfast. The breakfast was amazing with several options.
This little house is a dream home. You have everything you need, incredibly kind host, comfortable bed, beautiful atmosphere. The house is full of details and above all super clean. The owners gave us fresh fruit from their garden and it was amazing. This is definitely our best stay in Italy so far. We will definitely be back. Thanks for everything.
Picturesque and pleasant hotel. When I arrived before eleven o'clock in the morning, planning just to drop my bags, they had a room ready for me to check in. Comfortable bed. Conveniently placed for northern Ferrara attractions including Pinacoteca and Jewish cemetery. Nice varied breakfast. Friendly staff. Basically an excellent place to stay.
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.
I paid 91euro for one night ( including city tax ).
Very friendly staff at reception and at breakfast.
The room was the best one that I stayed in during a week in Italy ...... very comfy with good amenities. Clean and tidy, as was the ensuite. Good hot shower.
The duomo and castello are within 5 min walk.
Good VFM.
Annunziata is really an extraordinary hotel! The rooms are very finely decorated. The hotel manager Zeno and his staff are extremely helpful to support holiday planning in Ferrara and around. Also Annunziata offers the best breakfast I ever enjoyed in Italian hotels.
The hotel is located in the heart of the historic center, with a panoramic view of the castle. Our room is clean, spacious and very comfortable. The front desk staff is friendly and helpful. Breakfast is good and included in the price. Excellent value!
Centrally located, spacious room (around 16-18 square metres) and big bathroom. Modern facilities, boutique cozy hotel with a nice patio. Janet and Leonardo were extremely welcoming and friendly. Special mention goes to the radio in the bathroom!
Excellent staff work - room service, etc.
Room furnished like 3+ star hotel (A/C, TV, a lot of space, nice bathroom-toilet, bided, shower)
Close to the city Centre and yet quiet place
I’ll recommend this accommodation.
Nice and cozy hotel right next to Este Castle in the city centre. Staff were pleasant and welcoming. Good breakfast at the start of the day. If I ever come back to Ferrara, that’s where I’ll be staying!
This is a lovely recently renovated hotel in the center of Ferrara. The room is attractive, and modern with all comforts including sound proof windows so traffic noise is not an issue.
Lots if room to spread outside inside,but also the lovely garden to sit in as well. Perfectly located in the historic center if Ferrara; we could walk everywhere!
