La Rocca Estense Tours and Activities

The hotel is a business hotel but has a small gym area and a rooftop jacuzzi. The rooms are a good size with super-comfortable beds. Meals are served in an in-house restaurant. They are competitively priced. There are a range of dishes on the menu. I recommend booking because the restaurant can get crowded. There is an underground car park for a (reasonable) fee. The hotel is a 15 minute walk from the station and about 25 minutes to the city centre. A bit too far to carry heavy bags but there are plenty of taxis. The area around the hotel is quiet and safe even at night.

What a lovely hotel, in a wonderful location. I definitely would stay here again. Wonderful amenities. The breakfast had fantastic options for everyone. Fantastic hotel right on the beach. The spa was lovely, my Mom and I enjoyed the sauna and steam room. I took my Mom for her 80th birthday celebration and I already told my husband that I can’t wait to come back and bring him and the kids in the future!

This is an okay hotel. Pluses: pretty good location, easy walking distance to the old city center and major sights. The suite was very spacious, with plenty of room to spread out and relax. And the bathroom was great - best shower ever. Cons: our non-smoking room stank of cigarette smoke. The bed was not super comfortable - very firm, flat hard pillows, and no duvet; just a sheet and one rather scratchy blanket. Staff were polite but not friendly, and on our one full evening there, we could not go up to the rooftop bar because of a private event happening - which no one ever communicated in advance. Lastly, breakfast had lots of options, but none of them great quality.
