Reviews for Hotel Estense
Review 1:Management can save a huge amount of money on central heating with a temperature of 23 C in the building
Review 2:Location in the center of Bologna Private parking Room with balcony (309) Nice luxury hotel
Review 3:Simple wool blankets are not warm enough. Had to use 3 blankets to stay comfortable.
Review 4:Good location. 10 minutes walk to city center. Good size room. Good Wi-Fi for free. Very good breakfast. Free parking in the hotel yard.
Review 5:The single rooms were very small and basic
Review 6:Good location. The town was packed for a Festival and the car park of the hotel was full, but the receptionist moved her own car to make a space for ours. Special deals available if you ask.
Review 7:the room was way too hot and even though it advertises air con they told me they cant run aircon and heating at the same time. Got told to open the window. The heat,noisy traffic and yelling drunks keep us awake at night. Decore was outdated and toilet seat didn't fit,so your legs touched the bowl underneath
Review 8:The breakfast had a good range for a continental. The location was ok
Review 9:1.The rooms were old fashioned (4 floor seems to be less "dated" than the 3rd) 2. The hotel is clearly overpriced
Review 10:1. Personnel 2. Nice Iranian restaurant they opened for us after 11 pm 3. Good location - just 5 minutes walk from the old city 4. Free of charge parking in a yard (warning - it's rather small and there may be not enough places during the high season)
Review 11:Just one remark: we call the hotel from train station to ask which bus nr.to use and the answer from the reception was use a taxi. But there were no taxis because of the rain. All busses to bus station are useful - the reception MUST know this.
Review 12:Fantastic place! Clean and convenient. Close to train station and bus station. Breakfast is a fest! Nothing hot, but delicious. Room is small/single economy/ but all you need is there. Highly recommend for the price in comparison with other on same price level around the train station.
Review 13:Slightly dated but don't be deterred by this as it is very clean.
Review 14:Had a nice stay here and the staff were great. We had a squeaky bathroom door and on telling them they were there to fix it in minutes. Really nice people and a nice location. Short walk to town with the funky bamboo bar across the park
Review 15:Considering the size of the room, it was strange that there was no chest of drawers. Also the very small shower in the large bathroom.
Review 16:Excellent location, on the edge of the old city, easy walking distance to the Duomo. Very spacious comfortable room and large bathroom. Good breakfast buffet.
Review 17:The people from the Persian restaurant flicked ash onto our car and burnt a hole in the cover. The hotel staff were very apologetic.
Review 18:Location- 10 minutes into town and 20 minutes to the Ferrari museum. Staff very helpful. Room spacious , comfortable and clean. Breakfast amazing with lots of choice.
Review 19:Was a great value for our one night in Modena. The city was very quiet in August ... but we got good recommendations from the front desk on where to wander and grab a bite - all worked out well. Room was spacious and comfortable, breakfast was good, too. It's often difficult to find a room for a family of 4, but this one did the trick perfectly!
Review 20:Being able to walk into the town Centre and able to park the hire car on the premises, was great. Seeing the lovely horse photos in the reception was a surprising treat.
Review 21:Bathroom a bit style over substance but not a major problem. Breakfast room adequate rather than appealing.
Review 22:Good budget hotel, convenient for station. Excellent help from front desk staff (2 mature gentlemen) when a taxi booking made in England had been forgotten. They could not have tried harder to resolve the matter...and did. Excellent Persian restaurant attached to the hotel, unusual and delightful.
Review 23:Breakfast and large room very close to town centre

Review 63:The location was very convenient. We were able to park our car in the courtyard and then walk into the city centre and visit all the attractions. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Great value for money.
Review 64:The staff was very mixed. One of the staff (the young man with dark hair) was SO very rude. Every time I had to ask for my key, he was rude. When I called to ask about putting on the air-conditioning in my room, he was nasty and hung up on me. He should not be in hospitality.
Review 65:Fantastic location and comfortable bed.
Review 66:Hotel is just beside a busy street and room was quite noisy.
Review 67:Nice location within a walking distance from city centre. Wifi was fast enough and breakfast was adequate.
Review 68:We booked the Hotel especially because of "FREE PARKING - no reservation necessary" on our trip back to Germany with the car full of luggage. To make it short: After a very long and disrespectful discussion, finally there was a parking slot (which looked not very secure) but we felt really not welcome and decided to pay but to go to another Hotel. (Where we had no problems at all and enjoyed our last evening in Italy.)
Review 69:Hotel was a bit outdated - bathroom shower, linens could use a remodel.
Review 70:Breakfast was terrific - tons of variety. Loved the huge queen/king sized bed. Enjoyed in-hotel Persian restaurant. Easy walk to downtown Modena. Staff was great - even when parking was full, they personally helped find a reserved place for us.
Review 71:Nothing to dislike - would stay again.
Review 72:Clean, tidy and comfortable. Well placed for access to city centre. Really good choice at breakfast! Friendly staff. On site parking a real bonus in a city centre hotel
Review 73:The partition walls are quite thin.
Review 74:Very clean room and friendly staff. The breakfast was excellent. On-site parking was very handy. Its only a short walk into town (with wonderful ice cream parlours en-route).
Review 75:Excellent location on the edge of the centro storico with free parking if you arrive early enough, and lots of not-too-expensive parking nearby if not. Really good breakfast with fresh orange juice.
Review 76:Too bad the restaurant wasn't open when we were there as we needed a light bite to eat.
Review 77:Good location for touring Modena and surrounding areas. Pricing is pretty good, along with wi-fi and breakfast.
Review 78:Booked car park well in advance but on both nights space already given away. Woman on reception when we arrived was very unfriendly and distracted: we were an unwelcome inconvenience. Excellent breakfast served in a tiny cluttered and ruined by really horrible, undrinkable coffee.
Review 79:Comfortable, quiet room near to city centre. Very generous breakfast. Lots of fresh fruit and freshly squeezed orange juice.
Review 80:It is a pleasant surprize finding this kind of Hotel. Small, clean, well located, ample rooms, fully equiped bathrooms. Excellent breakfast. Very good ratio of cost and value.
Review 81:The furnishings were a bit worn. While everything was quite clean, there was a slight mustiness in the air.
Review 82:The room was quite large and the wifi worked great. The breakfast which was included with our room was very generous and offered a good variety of food and beverages.
Review 83:Nothing.
Review 84:Picked from the internet this hotel turned out to be a real find.Easy walking distance of the old town, secure car park, easy to find, quiet area, had the best buffet breakfast we had in 3 weeks in Italy including much more expensive hotels. Real fruit, crush your oranges for juice!
Review 85:Breakfast: too little space around the tables; no refill of used articles on the table. Only the first use of a table has all. Personal at breakfast very disturbing- noisy, no English, in friendly.
Review 86:Reception always kind and helpful and available.
Review 87:I just regret my one plan of a single day in this hotel. A full weekend in summer is in the plan of my next trip to Italy
Review 88:Excelent breakfast. It's like a time capsule : if you love Italy and have memories of Fellini movies you are in the right place
Review 89:Hotel Estense is centrally located and is close to most of the tourist locations in Modena. The beds are comfortable, bathrooms are clean and well-maintained, and there is a good spread for breakfast. In short, it is no-frills, but good and convenient hotel.
