We arrived quite late and it was a little difficult to find in the dark, but our hosts were able to come out to meet us at the gate. The hosts were amazing! We arrived as guests and left after 4 nights feeling like family. They are wonderful. The breakfast was home made with more variety than we could wish for. Best breakfast we have had in Italy! If you are wanting to stay in the Modena area, this is a great place to call home for a few days. Hosts are 11/10!

The hostess was very kind and personable. Similar to a small boutique hotel the rooms were well appointed and quiet. Perfect location for discovering Modena’s city centre.

Enzo was amazing from the moment I booked the hotel. I knew we would be arriving late on the train and he was so calming and reassuring - this was important as we have never travelled to Italy before. Grazie!
The breakfast was delicious, simple and just enough.
The hotel is walkable to many restaurants and sites to see, we enjoyed the Ferrari Museum and had dinner at two wonderful restaurants.

Apartment was great. Centrally located with lots of restaurants, shops and even a great little market about 15min walk away.
Room was very modern and stocked with everything we could need, clean and quiet.
The parking available is street parking and it is free. Was able to park within a block of the property.

We were looking for a simple convenient place to stay and Hotel Cervetta 5 was so much more. Cute and quirky with so much charm! The staff were exceptionally nice and very helpful. The rooms and bathrooms were small, as expected, but not lacking in comfort and essentials. Modena was an unexpected highlight of our trip and HC5 helped make it so.

What a welcoming, bright, modern hotel! The staff at the front desk are so helpful and kind. They gave us suggestions for restaurants, tours, coffee shops. We walked to the historic city centre in less than 30 minutes, and there is a Coop grocery store just 5 minutes away. The rooftop terrace has tables and lounge chairs- it's a relaxing spot. We didn't use the jacuzzi as the water was cool. Rooms were cleaned daily by a friendly, hard working team. I would recommend this hotel!
