The guest house is absolutley amazing and the staff is even better. The staff is very friendly and makes you feel like you are home. Super clean, very homely apartments that walking distance to lots of restaurants, train station, and lots of sights and wonderful Ferrara. You are making a mistake if you go to Ferrara and stay anywhere else. More

We stayed here based on the reviews on Trip Advisor, and so glad we chose this compared to a hotel. This has to be one of the best B&B/self catering places we have ever stayed. The owners (and their parents) are fantastic hosts and the breakfasts are great. They help out whenever needed (but are never intrusive), and even make... More

We stayed in the spacious loft room. Great location, best breakfasts we had in Italy! Clean and very comfortable. Ruggerio was extremely helpful in ensuring we enjoyed our stay there. He gave excellent recommendations for restaurants in Ferrara, including discounts. Piazza Nova is a great value in a unique city. More

I loved staying at Piazza Nova. My room had lovely old furniture and was warm and spacious with lots of natural light. I thought it was decorated very tastefully. The kitchen was new and well equipped. Ruggero and Emmanuela were so kind and welcoming, They let me speak in my broken Italian, recommended restaurants, and took me to and from... More

My husband and I stayed here for 8 nights in October as I was exhibiting artwork in Ferrara. We completely loved this guesthouse, the room upstairs at the top was just fantastic, our home away from home. Located a short walk from town we thoroughly enjoyed exploring Ferrara from this little gem. Any hotel can be nice but what sets... More

We had a very pleasant stay at Piazza Nova. Best of all the good things to say about Piazza Nova is the warm and enthusiastic hospitality of Ruggero and Emanuela. Ruggero met us at the train station and pointed out sights in the city as we drove along. Emanuela we found to be as charming and friendly as Ruggero. This... More

The owners were so very helpful in so many ways and we would stay there again if we return to Ferrara.!! More

Pleasantly surprised by the quality of the rooms as the website photos do not do them justice. But there's nothing like the quality of service. Ruggero and Emanuela go out of their way to help their guests, provide fantastic breakfasts that include cakes baked by Ruggero's father, and were happy to recommend where to go for whatever we wanted to...

We stayed here at the end of May 2009 for 3 nights. The location was a short walk from the "main" town square but we enjoyed the walk each night. Our room was clean, spacious and comfortable, with a clothes washer and a nice sized bathroom. It was unusually warm when we arrived but our room was very comfortable with... More
