My stay wasn’t the best as one can expect, to start with I was given a room without view. The cleanness of the room was fair by Italian standards. A night staff member was horrible as he racially profiled me. The rest of the staffs were great, as what you expect in a hotel of such standards. The breakfast was very basic and nothing to write. The business friendliness is great as they have few amenities and location of the hotel great.

Terrible staff and living on a construction site

Unfriendly, disrespectful and inattentive staff. No mention of the whole hotel undergoing renovations which caused noise and overall discomfort. You practically had to walk through a construction site to get to your room. We definitely was met with a feeling of contempt because of our young age, despite having paid the same as everyone else for the stay. Would never return…

Ein sehr tolles Konzept und hochwertig eingerichtetes Hotel. Tolles Personal und ein gutes Frühstück. Uns hat es sehr gefallen auch wenn die Einrichtung etwas in die Jahre gekommen ist. Aber ich liebe auch in die Jahre gekommende Jeans, denn diese sind nicht kaputt und wertlos sondern nur in die Jahre gekommen und etwas verschlissen. Ein Hotel welches einen sehr positiven Charakter hat. Wir empfehlen es weiter.

Kort oppsummert etter en uke på Astra Hotel i Ferrara: Rene og flotte rom med nødvendig aircondition da temperaturen lå på 30-37°C hver dag. Smilende og hyggelig personale, fabelaktig frokost, og 1. klasses beliggenhet - kun få minutters gange fra den fantastiske d'Este-borgen. Jeg har vært mange ganger i Ferrara, denne fantastiske, historiske byen i Emilia-Romagna... ved Italias matfat, på Po-sletta. Og jeg SKAL tilbake - og da blir ASTRA HOTEL mitt førstevalg. Tusen takk for denne gang - I'll be back - Torno - ciao 16-22 juli 2026 - Ingar

Buona la colazione a buffet. Personale gentile e disponibile. Buona posizione non lontano dal centro storico La TV non sempre ha funzionato in quanto a volte mancava il segnale. A me pare che l'albergo, dato come un 4 stelle, sia in realtà paragonabile a un tre stelle.
