Hotel Nord Ovest, Ferrara

A great position for your stay in Ferrara - the Hotel Nord Ovest lies on Viale Po, between the railway station and the start of the central avenue, the main thoroughfare of the city's 'centro storico'. This Ferrara accommodation lies just a few hundred metres from the city's tollbooth, and is set within a typical Emilia-Romagna building from the 1940s. Whether you're here on business or vacation, the central location is great, and with just 25 elegantly furnished bedrooms, service remains pleasantly personal.

There's a huge amount to see in this historic northern Italian city. Ferrara was, famously, the seat of the Dukes of Este in the Middle Ages and Renaissance times, growing to be a major political force in Renaissance Italy. Today it still has some 9km of late medieval walls surrounding the town, and most of the major landmarks nod back to the all-powerful Este clan. There is the Castello Estense, within a moat in the centre of town and built in 1385 to protect the Estes from their rioting subjects. There is a lovely cathedral (Duomo), the Palazzo Municipio and the Museo della Cattedrale. See also the Jewish Museum and the Pinacoteca Nazionale.

Rooms at this Ferrara hotel are singles, doubles or twins. All have private bathrooms with showers, all are elegantly furnished, with phone, air conditioning, TV and hairdryer. The hotel offers luggage storage, restaurant, bar, express check-in and -out, room service and cycle rental. You'll find a host of good restaurants in the town (the cuisine of Emilia-Romagna is noted even within Italy), and there is a golf course some 3km away.
