Princess Art Hotel, hotel in Ferrara

Located in Ferrara, Princess Art Hotel offers air-conditioned accommodation, 750 metres from Este Castle. Ferrara Cathedral is a 10-minute walk away.

Great hotel in quiet part of the old town. Less than 10 mins walk to the castle on flat ground. It was good to be away from the tourist crowd at night. It was safe to walk to restaurants. Hotel was lovely. We had a large room with big bathroom. Very comfortable. Breakfast was excellent - a buffer style continental spread with a wide range of choice. Dining in the private garden was also possible. Staff were very helpful and accommodating of our extension and late checkout.

FAQs about hotels in Ferrara







A Renaissance Rival to Florence

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 small compact old city that was easy to get around.

    A small compact old city that was easy to get around. We enjoyed a range of activities including the archaeological museum, Palazzo Schifanoia, Palazzo dei Diamonti, the Castle and the Cathedral among other sites. Easy to get around on foot. Lots of places to eat. The train station is off to the site of the old town. Easy train access to other major cities as it is on the main route to Venice. Also local trains to Ravenna.

    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...

    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.

    location was brilliant, only a 5 min walk into the old centre of Ferrara, and a 10 min bus ride to the train station. It was a perfect place to stay for the New Year’s Eve festivities when Ferrara was very busy. The hotel staff were very friendly and welcoming. The room was very comfort. The breakfast was a lovely selection of fruit, yoghurt, cold meats, pastries and cakes,served in a quiet, charming dining room.

    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.

He was prepared, walking us through where to park and providing a map. He even offered us a pre-paid option that was cheaper and extremely convenient. The location is fantastic!
