Pros:

Bella struttura, camera spaziosa e pulita e posizione centrale.

Cons:

Essendo dentro il centro storico è in ztl (la struttura garantisce comunque un pass con il comune) e con scarsità di parcheggio nelle vicinanze, se non pochi posti in un garage poco distante a 20 euro a notte.

Hotel 4 stelle con loft carinissimi e una eccellente posizione!
Pros:

Ho soggiornato al Maxxim Hotel & Loft a fine maggio 2026. La struttura è ricavata in un palazzo storico del centro di Ferrara ed è particolare.
Il loft su 3 livelli che ho scelto era molto bello, ristrutturato di recente ed arredato con gusto.
Il prezzo è stato assolutamente ragionevole.
La disponibilità di un garage (da prenotare e pagare a parte) è un servizio indispensabile per chi si sposta in auto per lavoro.
La location è perfetta, a pochi minuti a piedi dal Castello Estense e in una zona piena di ristoranti.

Cons:

La colazione non mi ha convinta del tutto: una scelta limitata sia di dolce che di salato e la mancanza di più varietà di pane fresco che per un 4 stelle è un po’ un peccato.
