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.
Our room was in located the attic of a 19th century palace, around the corner from the hotel building. All close to the centre. A great base for anyone wanting to spend a few days in historic Ferrara. The room was spacious, equipped with air conditioning, a kitchen and a clean, comfortable bathroom. Parking is available for a fee near the hotel. Helpful staff. Great breakfast. Overall, highly recommended!
The location of Hetol Torre della Vittoria 1928 was incredible. Everything we needed was there, including helpful and friendly staff, and a fresh delicious brekky daily. I travelled with my 81 year old mum, so a lift was a must. We had a very comfortable and clean room. This hotel was right in the old town of Ferrara, perfect for walking and exploring every day.
The room was very comfortable and conveniently appointed, with great decor.
The hotel is on the second floor, and there's no elevator, but the staff carried my bags up and down the stairs. It is located very close to the train station, and a nice walk to the center of town.
Breakfast was excellent, including hot eggs and a variety of pastries.
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.
Great location in the heart of historic Ferrara. Secure on site parking. Smart check in but our host welcomed us personally and helped solve a problem with the air conditioner immediately. Room was large and comfortable. There were good dining options nearby including a breakfast bar less than 2 minutes away.
Very charming place, well located, in the center of Ferrara, with parking places in the street around the hotel. The staff was very nice and helpful. The bedroom was spacious. The breakfast was perfect. It should be even nicer during a sunny day, to enjoy the patio. I totally recommend the place.
We were greeted by a happy receptionist, all the staff were pleasant and very helpful. Breakfast was good, with a good choice.
Situation of the hotel was excellent, easy to get to with their own car park.
Overall this was a great hotel and situated in the heart of Ferrara.
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.
Best place You can get in Ferrara nearby. You have Your own flat, and owners are the most kind people I've met in Italy! Rooms are big, nice bathroom and fully functional kitchen. If You want to feel like you never left your lovely home that's the place!
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!
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.
Everything was perfect: the location, the room, the staff, the electronic access to the room, nice bathroom, elevator parking, everything top notch.
Breakfast was probably the best we had in our 2 weeks trip to Italy.
The hotel is very central, making it a great base to get around Ferrara, the staff are helpful and the hotel is very clean. excellent value for money! The breakfast is also very nice and included in the price!
Helpful staff, perfect location, lovely breakfast, in a renaissance palace converted into a modern hotel while maintaining its original structure and charm. The price was very reasonable. Parking.
This was the second time I stayed at this hotel for it is close to the Buskers festival and central to the historic area. I will stay again for a perfect place and the owner is a wonderful person.
Lovely apartment in the heart of Ferrara! The design and details were adorable and we appreciated that we could open the windows to hear the cityscape or close them to be quiet and rest!
