Pros:

Ontbijt, ruime kamer, erg vriendelijk personeel, locatie, parkeren.

Cons:

Airco trok de warmte niet in de kamer. Het was nog steeds erg warm in de kamer en geen ventilatie in de badkamer waardoor het daar een sauna was midden in de zomer

Recomendo! Café da manhã muito bom!
Pros:

A localização do hotel era muito boa, com bares e restaurantes ao lado e pontos turísticos por perto. Fizemos tudo andando, inclusive a ida ao Museu da Ferrari em Modena. Atendimento muito bom na recepção e café da manhã espetacular, com muita variedade. Quarto espaçoso, bom banheiro!

Cons:

Ponto bem negativo é que pegamos bastante calor na cidade e o ar condicionado do quarto não dava conta de tanto calor.

Pros:

Charming hotel with great restaurant in the cellar.

Cons:

Brutally hot and the room had an odor. We had to ask for a fan and even then sleeping was unbearable.

The location is great and the exterior of the building and its gardens are beautiful

Elegance, Quality, Prompt Service, Reasonably Priced, Excellent Breakfast
Pros:

Gorgeous hotel perfectly located in central Modena. The service was exceptional. The cost for the room given the quality of the hotel was reasonable. The breakfast buffet is INCREDIBLE - they make a fabulous cappuccino! I give this hotel my unqualified recommendation.

Our stay in Modena was good.
Pros:

It was a convenient place to stop and easel situated in the old town. The staff were very professional and helpful.

Cons:

They didn’t have enough parking so we had to park quite a way from the hotel but it seemed safe enough.
