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.
From the moment we arrived it was comfort at its best. Tastefully decorated A lovely easy check in, great communication. Comfy beds and best shower in Italy, we had travelled a lot in 3 weeks. A 20 min walk into city center where they was lots of places to choose to eat at. Breakfast was the best homemade pastries and fantastic
scrambled eggs. Very close to the station too. Would stay here again as Farrera has more to explore. Thank you Angelo & Cal. Ps thank you so much for the pastries you gave us for our travels. Grazie Mille
This is a great apartment. Overlooking the old city walls, and a 5-10 minute walk to all the sights, restaurants, etc. It looked better than the photos, which isn’t always true! It was very comfortable and very quiet even with windows open. Special thanks to Daniela for helping us get settled and especially for arranging a taxi for our departure when we couldn’t navigate the voice mail system for booking a taxi on the weekend. We really enjoyed Ferrara and would happily stay here again.
Breakfast was bit basic (as it tends to be in Italy) but completely satisfactory and the fresh croissants hot from oven delicious :-)
Room (we had nr 4 at highest floor) was very spacious and comfortable and there was quite silent.
Personel (specially the gentleman in reception) was very friendly and helpfull.
The location was perfect for us, just 5-10 min walk to citycenter.
This is a lovely, well-furnished apartment within walking distance of most Ferrara attractions. The kitchen is more than adequate, the beds comfortable and the apartment was full of light from both windows and sky lights. The hosts made helpful recommendations about where to eat and what to see. They offered to book a taxi for us. We would easily choose to stay here again.
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.
This is a great place to visit Ferrara as it is in the city centre. The hotel gave us good instructions to find the place easily. It is a very nice place with lots of history. We liked the comfort of the apartment. Breakfast in the garden was very pleasant. The hotel's parking was across the street in a garage that was easily accessible.
The location, the breakfast and the value for money are great, but what makes Hotel Touring a great choice is their professional staff. During my stay on March they were polite and handled exceptionally well a problem that arised with my booking. The overall experience with the hotel was excellent. I highly recommended it.
The best place I have stayed in Italy! In the heart of Ferrara, perfectl for sightseeing, yet quiet and comfortable. Beautiful building of the casa Minerbi overlooking the old garden and have the remains of frescoes from the 14th century (I love it!!). I really hope I can come back here someday.
One of the most welcoming places I've stayed in Italy. The location was perfect (for me), situated in a beautiful part of the Ferrara's Old Town, close to Palazzo Schifanoia. A balcony was a welcome addition as the weather was wonderful! Will definitely stay in Green Rooms again.
The location was very good (in the historic district of Ferrara and that was wonderful) and it was good value. It was a "smart hotel" so therefore no one at reception (except for one time). The manager was available through Whatsapp and he was very nice when we met him.
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.
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!
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.
Best hotel in Ferrara, stayed several times and it is always a wonderful experience.
Fantastic location
