Cons -
- Room was infested with mosquitos.Woke up with dozens of bites.I was swarmed at the mirror by the armoir. The woman at the front was very rude when I told her we couldn't access the English channels.Turned out the batteries were dead.Her husband fixed it
- The single room was dowdy and more like a college dormitory. I booked this hotel based on the high ratings, and was very disappointed with the room itself. The host offered another room the next day, but it was not much better and there was some confusion about cleaning and changing, so I declined.

A perfect and quiet location, very close to the city center. My room was very nice and I enjoyed the breakfast.
Convenient location. It had nice local charm. We had everything we needed. It’s a family run hotel. We were greeted by Antonio who helped us get settled with a map and parking. And he makes a great cappuccino too!
It's simply a very nice place where to stay. Nice and friendly staff, good breakfast, quiet environment, very close to the city center. The hotel has a welcoming feeling that you will not find in other places.
Central location, nice staff, good breakfast.

Varied and delicious breakfast. Very helpful staff. Location is ideal. Quiet. Rooms are small and simple but hotel choices in Ferrara are quite limited.
Our balcony was perfect for enjoying early mornings and late evenings. Enjoy a bit of old world charm and customer care (with modern amenities WiFi/aircon/lift.). Excellent quiet location. Walkable from train station 15-20 min. Breakfast had lots of variety.
Hotel de Prati is a small, quiet hotel a warm atmosphere. My host were friendly and helpful. Breakfast offered many good choices, something for everyone.
Our room was spotless and spacious. It appeared that the mattress in our bed was very new because it was noticeably comfortable. The hotel location was perfect. Staff was very helpful. Paid third-party parking was a short walk away. Our visit was too short, and if we were able to return, we would choose Hotel De Prati again.
No complaints.
The hotel was charming The staff were friendly and helpful , and the position in the old town was perfect Breakfast was a delight
The breakfast was delicious, with excellent home made cakes and cereals, and I appreciated the fresh fruit. The location was excellent: central, and very near most of the main museums. The hotel had a real family feel; it was good value for money and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay there.
I could not have enjoyed my stay more! The staff was lovely, the room comfortable and clean, and the breakfast was delicious. I even saw they had prepared some vegan breakfast items, which is very thoughtful. The location is also second to none. I would recommend this hotel to anyone and certainly hope to be back!
Delightful staff, always ready to help, e.g. with bus tickets. First class location, right in the centre but extremely quiet. Excellent breakfast.
