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...
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.
Hotel staff were great and very helpful. The location is central to all the sites in the old town and many restaurants. There is a small but wonderful rooftop patio set on top of a bridge between buildings, which offers a view of the main town square yet is set apart and quiet, lovely for breakfast and also for a late day cocktail. The room was larger than most you get in Italy in the same price range. The breakfast menu has great and fresh baked goods and the terrace is a great place to enjoy it.
We loved everything about the Hotel Orologico! It is quite quirky with an eclectic mix of 'artefacts'dotted about, creating a unique atmosphere, The staff were outstandingly helpful during our 4 day stay. The breakfast is generous and excellent. Bed super-comfortable . We used the downstairs garage which has limited space but we think worth requesting. You can borrow a bicycle, and Ferrara is very cycle-friendly. There is a useful supermarket almost next -door. Strongly recommended!
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.
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.
Extremely kind and friendly guesthouse owner. Property is modern, well-designed, and clean - absolutely superb in all aspects. Loved the fact that the property was on a quiet street, but also very close walking distance to center of Ferrara and the train station. Breakfast was also outstanding - delicious, and a great selection of food.
We used the hotel for an overnight stay on our way to Tuscany, mainly because of its location at the highway exit and a relatively convenient location for visiting the city center. The hotel was clean, modern, comfortable and quiet. Ferrara surprised me with the number of monuments, it is a very nice city.
wonderful staff; hotel in perfect location. Room very clean and comfortable, very comfy bed, too. I was sick for the first three days of my stay and they brought me a breakfast tray each morning, delivered my Uber Eats meals to my room and were unfailingly kind and helpful throughout my stay.
We were only offered breakfasts at Hotel Touring and we were not disappointed. The attending staff at breakfasts were most accomodating and attentive. The front lobby staff were very helpful in suggesting local attractions, including historical features and local dining establishments.
The location in downtown Ferrara (near the castle) is great, though not particularly "charming." The staff was very helpful in providing local knowledge. Breakfast was a notch or two above the usual coffee and pastry offerings at similar hotels.
The hotel complements in the rich history of Ferrara, the interior design reminisces a time long ago kept up to contemporary standards. The staff will gladly update you on local events that are happening close by.
The breakfast is good.
The hotel is perfectly located in the centre of Ferrara. It is very elegant and cosy and it has all the features to enjoy a great stay. The staff is welcoming and kind and the breakfast is delicious.
The location was perfect. It's in the heart of Ferrara and walkable to everything. The staff was friendly, the room was clean and comfortable, and the breakfast was excellent.
