Hotel Le Corti, Ferrara

Brimming with character, Ferrara's Hotel Le Corti is a farmhouse conversion within easy reach of downtown Ferrara. Its proximity to the motorway/highway makes it an ideal base for anyone who intends to see a lot of the Emilia-Romagna region. The town itself is the birthplace of the famed film director Michelangelo Antonioni, and he is among the many artists to have set their works there. Romanesque, baroque and Renaissance elements run through the town's historical architecture, and a stroll through the city centre is a living experience of Emilia-Romagna's millennia of history.

Ferrara's Hotel Le Corti is a cosy establishment, with just 15 rooms, eight of which are doubles. One room, on the ground floor, has been specially adapted to accommodate disabled travellers. The comfortable rooms come with air conditioning, heating, telephone, television and en suite bathroom. The room rate also includes a continental breakfast. Guests can pass their time strolling or sitting in the pleasant hotel garden, while those of a more energetic bent have a sports centre only two kilometres away; this has a gym, tennis court, swimming pool and golf course. Also nearby is the city's art centre, meaning that once you have given your body a good workout you can do the same for your mind.

While this pleasant and peaceful two-star hotel in Ferrara affords the ideal opportunity to get away from the hustle and bustle of daily life, should you wish to keep in touch with family and friends back home, or colleagues and business partners, there is internet access and a fax and photocopying service on site.
