Here as a couple or for a weekend
A weekend in Ferrara, with the Castle at your window.
Rooms that look onto Castello Estense, a breakfast to enjoy slowly, a spritz before dinner. And Ferrara all around, to explore on foot or by bike.
We are in Piazza Repubblica, in the historic centre: everything you need for a weekend is a few minutes’ walk away.
Rooms for two
The Castle from your bed or your sitting room.
The weekend
Four moments not to miss.
If you stay one more night
Towards the sea: Comacchio and the Delta.
Comacchio, the little Venice, is 53 km away: Zeno recommends a night at Al Ponticello, with Sarah and Riccardo. The Po Delta is 80 km away, at Osteria Arcadia in Santa Giulia di Porto Tolle, with a boat trip in the lagoons.

Check-in is from 14.00, check-out by 11.00. If you arrive early you can leave your luggage from 8.00; if you leave late you can keep it in the lockers after check-out too.
Where can I park my car?
The hotel has no car park of its own and is inside the limited traffic zone (ZTL): you can stop at the entrance only to load and unload, giving us your number plate at check-in. Then you can leave the car in the blue-line paid parking bays with the €7 day ticket you get at check-in (the nearest are in Via Fausto Beretta, a 4-minute walk), or at the Borgoricco multi-storey car park, 230 metres away. The Ex Mof car park, 1.1 km away, is free.
What do you recommend for a night outside Ferrara?
Comacchio, 53 km away: Zeno recommends a night at Al Ponticello, with Sarah and Riccardo. Or the Po Delta, at Osteria Arcadia in Santa Giulia di Porto Tolle, 80 km away, with a boat trip in the lagoons.
