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.

    It is an interesting town full of late medieval and early Renaissance architecture. If you are interested in history, you will love exploring Ferrara. Also, compared to Florence or Venice it is quiet and unexpensive, while offering great places to go and good food, too (we ate at Leon d'Oro very close to our hotel and we loved both their food and their wine).

    A beautiful, relatively intact late medieval city built almost entirely of brick. The castle is Disney-esque, the cathedral and adjacent piazza are charming. Much of the city centre is pedestrianised so travelling around is easy, but there are a lot of bicycles so care is needed. Lots of nice places to eat and drink.

    Ferrara is part of the UNESCO World Heritage.

    Ferrara is part of the UNESCO World Heritage. The main part of the buildings in Ferrara is built in the Renaissance style. The Este family, which had an important position in Italy, made it a point to build an exceptional city. Ferrara is still surrounded by walls and is thus protected from the outside world. As if thanks to this, it was possible to preserve the atmosphere of ancient times. In addition, there are many beautiful parks around Ferrara, making it a unique place to relax and study interesting historical attractions.

    Ferrara is a small city, but with a lot of history, especially the building's from the Este family. We spent three nights there, and enjoyed our time in the city, and the restaurants we used, but we felt three days was enough.
