Top Ferrara Hotel Reviews

Hotel Duchessa Isabella Collection by GSA Hotels

Hotel Duchessa Isabella Collection by GSA Hotels

10/10 Excellent
"Very nice hotel. Honestly speaking it looks amazing on pics but is different in real life. Not much, but still different. Nevertheless, it is very nice hotel and personnel. Breakfast could be improved a bit to add more variety of food. Rooms are not brand new and have some signs of age, but it is very old construction building and such things including the size of the shower room are small because of this reason. The neighborhood is quite and safe. Very close to Ferrara historic center."
