We got a great rate off the website for this hotel (132 Euros, non-refundable, paid a certain number of days in advance) and were very pleased. The staff was helpful (including especially Grazyna, but others as well), from making sure that our opera tickets had arrived and were waiting for us to recommending a fun local restaurant with delicious (and... more

The Canal Grande Hotel is literally the worst value for money I have ever experienced. Noone on the hotel staff smiled until we were checking out and I wondered then if he was the owner. I travel extensively throughout the world and usually stay at very nice places. I have found, more often than not, you get what you pay... more

We stayed two nights in the hotel and I was pretty neutral about the place. Hotel was comfortable and quiet with average facilites/quality. Staff were neither friendly or unfriendly but functional, as you would expect from a hotel of this type . A bit of faded grandeur about the place and I felt it was a bit overpriced. The location... more

Fabolous Hotel Canal Grande is just perfect! We stayed there for 1 night only as we were on route to a wedding. I wish the stay was longer as I thoroughly enjoyed this hotel. The staff were incredibly helpful and polite. I left my cardigan there and they posted it to my UK address with a very kind note! our... more

We stayed at the Canal Grande in Modena for the second time this summer. We enjoyed our stay so much a few years ago that we wanted to stay again during this visit to Modena. The staff speaks excellent English and is polite, professional, and extremely helpful. This stay we had a family suite that consisted of two large rooms... more

We arrived in Modena on the train and walked to Hotel Canal Grande in about 20 minutes. Modena's old town is small and convenient to the train station. You walk through it to get to the hotel from the station. The hotel was very welcoming and the staff was polite, proffessional, and helpful. The furnishings in the common areas are... more

What makes a great hotel? The staff, the accommodations, the location: this hotel has it all. Located in the center of the historic district; five minutes walk from the Duomo and the best shops; ten minutes from many of the best local restaurants; around the corner from the city's large chestnut tree filled park. The staff were among the most... more

There aren't many hotels in Modena so choice is limited. There was a very nice looking one (hotel number 3 on the signs/tourist map in the town) but it was full so we stayed in Canal Grande. It had a lot of faded grandeur about it, but our room was dark and not particularly pleasant. Very overpriced. But Modena is... more

Canalgrande was nothing special (considering the cost). Nothing terrible, everything was just okay. The gardens shown on the web site were not used. They were even closed during breakfast and no bar service etc out there. Hotel staff not particularly helpful. more
