The Platform Rooms

Borgoleoni 18 - Room and Breakfast

"The B&B is just a few steps from the center/dom. No 3 minutes' walk. Very modernly equipped. Unfortunately, the design is more important to the operator than functionality. There are no deposit facilities for clothing and the many small things you have so. Specially to highlight is the home-safe parking behind the house. You also like to pay €15 per day for this. However, we have to take a point off because of the really medium breakfast. Toast bread, chicken and cheese in supermarket quality. Overall breakfast is very overview. Even the Cornetti were warm from the packaging and in the microwave. There is still air up there. Overall, however, very nice - so you can recommend it for a short stay"

Hotel Residence Diamantina

"The location is convenient in that area and the property is awesome. Staff is amazing and we felt right at home."

Boutique Hotel Ferrara

"Highly recommended for a stay in Ferrara. A warm welcome from the hosts and friendly and helpful staff. Immaculately clean. Lovely details and decor. Perfectly situated near to railway station and 10-15 minute walk to main town. Ferrara is a beautiful place to visit. Breakfast was a highlight with freshly baked pastries, fresh juice and a good variety. Good coffee. Tea and coffee making facilities in room, comfortable bed and good shower. 10/10!"

Residence Carlton

"This hotel is perfectly located for a tourist visit to Ferrara. The rooms are comfortable and quiet and breakfasts good. We found the reception staff extremely helpful, especially when our transfer arrangement from Bologna airport fell through and they were able to arrange a last minute substitute. The staff culture is excellent. We enjoyed our stay and recommend this hotel. "

Casaforte la Bastide

"Casaforte La Bastide is a beautifully restored medieval home set in the lovely countryside just outside Ferrara. It is an ideal place to stay while visiting Ferrara. What better way to discover the historical city than stay in a historical mansion? The mansion retains much of its original medieval structure while being tastefully decorated with antique furniture which enhance the ambiance all the while providing very modern comforts. We stayed in the Secret Suite which was large, warm and very characteristic. The bed, pillows and blankets were extremely comfortable, allowing for a good night's rest. We really enjoyed having breakfast in the dining hall. An abundant breakfast was prepared for us by Thomas which included eggs, fresh pastries, bread, yogurt, cold cuts, cheese and biscuits. There was a ample selection of tea, coffee and juice. As amazing as the location was, what made the stay even more incredible was the hospitality of the owners and of Thomas. They really made us feel at home!"

Al Castello

"Booked a room for an August weekend, perfect room, great size, bathroom with everything needed. Excellent location, structure with 6 total rooms, with every comfort. Council."

Alloggi Al Verdi

"I stayed in August 2024 with my family (2 adults + 1 boy of 13 years old). Central location a step from the historical center. Large parking nearby. Clean, spacious double room, comfortable bed sofa. Adapted to families. It's very advisable!"

Hotel Europa

"One night's experience, in a Superior room on the second floor, with a frescoed ceiling, very spacious, as was the bathroom... Some might say it's a bit "lived in," but in my opinion it has its charm and a sense of... history... Overlooking the main street, in front of the Teatini Church, with the windows closed there was no noise from the street... Breakfast was standard, don't expect the breakfasts of large international hotels, but a good variety of sweet and savory, with desserts I think from the nearby pastry shop of the same name, which was closed for holidays during our short stay... The reception staff were kind and welcoming... I forgot to mention the centrality of the hotel: a few meters from the Castle, and convenient for walking to other popular destinations in Ferrara..."

Locanda Borgonuovo

"A charming city centre B@B on a quiet street. The rooms are spacious, comfortable and clean, furnished in a slightly old fashioned way but that is part of the charm. There is (chargeable) parking close by. "

Hotel Lucrezia Borgia

"The hotel has 3 stars and a lot of effort has been put into surpassing its category. The location is excellent, 2 km from the center, in the immediate vicinity of a large shopping center. Parking is provided and included in the price, and in a short time you can reach a large public parking lot next to the historic city center. The rooms are comfortable, the air conditioner works flawlessly. The breakfast is fine, with my comments about the Italian breakfast that the offer of sweet things prevails over the savoury. . We had dinner once in the hotel restaurant, both the food and the service were excellent. Complaints are that some workers at the reception barely understand and speak English, as well as that the breakfast is used up faster than it is replenished, so if you arrive late, half of the offer will no longer be available. The friendliness of the staff, family atmosphere and good location will make me recommend the hotel to other travelers."

Horti Della Fasanara

"I have never expressed myself with judgments through this site until now, but I decide to do so in honor of a truly beautiful and strategic place to visit Ferrara. The villa is surrounded by greenery and yet very close to the city center. It is a shame that so much potential of the place and the structure (even with some architectural inconsistencies), is completely ruined by a completely insufficient management and, above all, inadequate to the daily cost. Apart from the care of two kind Slavic ladies who do their best to serve a breakfast in itself not up to the vaunted tone of the house, the service is overall shameful. The room service is terrible, as regards the cleaning of the bathroom, supply and change of linen. The water supply (thin as one might expect and admit on a remote island but not in Ferrara) discourages the use of the shower which has also never been touched by the cleaning service. Having reported this water shortage, given our stay of a few days, I was told that in the past, as if it were a justification, there had been a report of a disservice... and such it remained. The sconce next to the bed flaunted an antique spiderweb on which the dust of time evoked a velvet trimming, very evident by simply turning on the lamp. The garden, beautiful, poorly cared for even on the occasion of an important event. I conclude by urging the property to provide..."
