Reviews for Hotel Castello

Review 1:The hotel has 2 buildings, new and old. The new one was designed in a very outdated style.

Review 2:Comfortable hotel. Nice staff. It was nice to stay once outside the busy towns in the relaxed atmosphere of the countryside.

Review 3:The staff were average, they couldn't be bothered with us much. Bare minimum service, could have been a language barrier or busy time of year but they didn't make much effort.

Review 4:The coffee!!! Best in Italy so far!!

Review 5:The only thing that comes to my mind is that the bread provided at breakfast could be a little bit more varied, there were only white rolls (however, in addition to croissants and cake etc.). I noticed that wifi was insecure as without password protection. I wonder if business travellers would want to use a open wifi network... but it is certainly fine to look up some touristic sights on Wikipedia.

Review 6:We were warmly welcomed, especially our little dog, for whom water was provided. Staff spoke English and German in addition to Italian, so communication was great. We were shown to our rooms, which were in the annex. The hotel is not supermodern, but clean and the bathrooms are very luxurious for a three star hotel. The area is very quiet, but still in good position to reach the A1 motorway and 10 min from Modena city centre by car. Staff recommended us a nice Trattoria nearby for dinner, where we had gorgeous Italian Tortelli. Breakfast was also very good, even gluten-free products were provided. We especially liked the homemade fruit salad. Wifi also worked perfectly in all areas!

Review 7:One person manning bar and check-in, you need to be patient. One the other hand, the environment encourages you to slow down.

Review 8:I was on a trip with a new car on European delivery. Excellent and safe parking for a new and expensive car. Location is just on the outside of Modena in a quiet farm field. Good bar on site along with a great breakfast. It was wonderful to sit outside with a glass of wine smelling all the kitchens in the town 1 km away cooking dinner. Short distance to many good and inexpensive restaurants. I was there in mid September with outside temperatures of 30 C. Very easy to find with GPS. Many guests come and stay for days at a time. Good location if you want to tour the Ferrari and Lamborghini museums.

Review 9:Most of the accomodation is in a new annex, the rooms are large, modern and smart (which is great), but perhaps it lacks the charm of the old villa.

Review 10:This is my second visit to Hotel Castello. A great location, just outside Modena and 10mins drive from Maranello. Good parking and quiet location. Friendly and helpful staff. The rooms are large and neat, with effective bathrooms. Very good all considered.

Review 11:The hotel was beautiful, but the location was very poor and very sorry but i wouldn't stay here again

Review 12:i couldn't fault the hotel, absolutely beautiful but the location totally lets it down

Review 13:The hotel is in a excellent location, it has two fantastic hot tubs, lots of outdoor little seating arrangements, sun beds in the grassy areas, big balcony, excellent breakfast, very friendly and helofull staff, in all we had a great time there.

Review 14:We stayed here for one night on motorcycle trip through Italy , Hotel was beautiful and staff friendly and helpful . We had a taxi into Modena for a look round ,(everywhere closed because Italian holiday )ended up walking about a km to restaurant Ventquattrore ,good food and helpful staff especially as we only speak basic Italian !!!

Review 15:We didn't have a bad experience at all, but it would be a good idea to offer simple food in the evenings so weary travellers don't need to go into the town!

Review 16:Everything! The friendliness of the staff, their helpfulness, the cleanliness of the hotel, the comfortable bed and bedroom, and the delicious breakfast.

Review 17:The only slight downSide was the Ir conditioning could have been better and the sound proofing in the new building was non existent. The staff, food, service was excellent!

Review 18:The hotel and location was good for our purpose of travelling through.

Review 19:No dinner service in the evening. Need to install screen door for windows to prevent insects from coming in to the room. Air conditioning needs to be fixed as it shuts off and on constantly. The location of the hotel is 20 minutes walk from the main road where restaurants are. It will be nice if the hotel has bicycles for guests to use.

Review 20:Friendly and helpful staff at front desk.

Review 21:Very big rooms with balcony Comfy bed One of the best breakfasts we had on our holidays Free bicycle usage - great restaurants nearby within cycle distance

Review 22:Lovely hotel. Large clean rooms. Gorgeous gardens and two jacuzzis to relax in after a long day. The staff were all great. We enjoyed a drink in the bar. Best hotel we have stayed at during this trip to Italy.

Review 23:I cannot think of anything.

Review 24:The staff were friendly and very helpful. It was my Dad's birthday whilst at the hotel and they gave him a balloon bouquet and said happy birthday. A lovely extra touch. Breakfast was good too. It is a lovely hotel and close to Modena town.

Review 25:Nothing.

Review 26:A warm and professional staff make a very relaxing stay. Rooms are large and well-appointed, grounds are beautiful. Not inexpensive but very good value.

Review 27:My only reservation is that if one is driving, it is difficult to find one's way around Modena, and find the hotel. A GOOD MAP OF THE CITY IS ESSENTIAL

Review 28:Although out of town, a truly excellent and reasonably priced meal is available at the Ristorante La Patriarca, which is literally walking distance from the hotel.

Review 29:The hotel is great, a very nice little castle, located not too far from the city centre in a calm area. The staff is great very helpful always smiled, room comfortable, breakfast big and the general atmosphere is very nice. I have been there many times and always enjoy coming back!

Review 30:It was a beautiful hotel in lovely grounds. Very comfortable, clean and bedroom was a very nice size. Friendly staff, Great breakfast. Free Wifi in rooms. Good location if you have a car as ample free parking and easy to get into the town. Would not be great location without a car as Taxi's are expensive.

Review 31:Our room was a "little tired." Walls could be painted and blankets on bed were old worn wool blankets and old bedspreads. If their bed linens were updated to soft clean comfy quilts, the experience would be enhanced tremendously. I think it is necessary as this was the only real negative part of the experience at this property.

Review 32:Beautiful exterior and common areas. Extremely clean and lovely staff.

Review 33:Guests really need a car, as there is very little within walking distance.

Review 34:Pretty property on the outskirts of Modena. Near a fabulous balsamic producer. Owner was very helpful in directing us to a cheese producer, and made good restaurant recommendations too.

Review 35:Nothing

Review 36:The staff were friendly and very helpful. Nothing was too much trouble for them. The rooms were excellent and clean with comfortable beds. Light and airy rooms with high ceilings and plenty of windows for natural light. The car parking was good and location superb. We were in Modena visiting Maserati and Ferrari but also reached Lamborghini and Ducati very easily. A fabulous hotel.

Review 37:Excellent service at nice clean modern hotel. Excellent breakfast included and great wifi. Outside hot tub was very nice and great service from all employees.

Review 38:Room was huge and excellent, nice furniture although decor and lighting in the room was rather bland. Would very happily return to this hotel.

Review 39:Very smart hotel with good public rooms and breakfast. Friendly and helpful staff both on night desk and in the morning. Location just into the quiet countryside, but still very close to Modena and San Agata. I booked late for a single and was given huge 4 person family room, real bonus. Quiet, nice location and good parking, although gates not locked at night.

Review 40:We were in the new building that was a bit bland. Although now non smoking, there was distinct residual odour of past smoking.

Review 41:The staff were extremely friendly and helpful

Review 42:Very good spacious room in the new annex. Staff most helpful and willing to advise on visits and nearby restaurants. Very good breakfasts with multitude of choice and attentive staff.

Review 43:Being in the "country", there are lots of mosquitoes when we were there in September. We were not able to open the wonderful balcony doors and large windows as a result. Even though it was a non-smoking room, the smell of cigarette smoke was still present.

Review 44:Hotel is located in a real quiet area with fields all around. Restaurants are close by if you have a car. Staff was very pleasant and helpful. Bathroom was large, though shower was small, but fine. Great air conditioner. Nice breakfast served each day and if you desired, there was apertivo in the evenings.

Review 45:This hotel is really off the beaten track. The address can't be found on a GPS so make sure you look up the location on a map before you go. We got in late and it took us over an hour to find this place. We bought a local map at a gas station and the road wasn't even listed on that, not on our GPS, asked some locals and at some restaurants but no one was able to give us directions. Finally found an ice cream shop where the owner spoke English and he looked up the directions for us. The whole time we were within 3 km yet no one knew the street or place. We checked in at 10:30pm, the man at reception didn't speak any English except for the word breakfast but his pointing skills were good. Morning staff spoke English well.

Review 46:The hotel is beautiful, rooms are clean and breakfast is good.

Review 47:nothing

Review 48:Everything. Amazing value, full breakfast with fresh fruits, ham and cheese, cakes, capuccino, ...free parking, very freindly and helpful staff, free access to computer and printer (for boarding passes), super clean room with large bed all this for 60 EUR tax and breakfast included (single use) ! Impossible to beat this.

Review 49:We were expecting a hotel with a little more character. Like us, most of the guests seemed to be in the new block which had very comfortable rooms, but the walls were thin and we could hear other people using the bathroom at night.

Review 50:Everything about the hotel was great.

Review 51:A lot of mosquitos but the hotel can't do little against them, can it? Only a swimmingpool is missing but the hotel just added an outside jacuzzi.

Review 52:Staff was super friendly. Even if the hotel doesn't have a restaurant, you can order pizzas from a local restaurant with no extra cost. The desk staff then set up a table in the breakfast room. It all made for a nice and calm evening.

Review 53:We thought we'd stayed in the building indicated in the photo, but they gave us a room in the other building. Before check-in you can send message and specify that you want to stay in the old building.

Review 54:Spacious and comfortable. Garden is huge and you can have your breakfast in the garden. Breakfast was satisfactory.

Review 55:Mosquitos (not too many, but still annoying at night when you sleep).

Review 56:Silent place, room was clean and big enough, very good breakfast, free parking, fast internet. I traveled with my wife on car to visit Lamborghini and Ferrari museums. Location of hotel was perfect for our goals.

Review 57:Got to have a GPS unit around Modena...someone removed all the street name signs! :)

Review 58:Beautiful setting in the countryside. Lovely room with comfy bed and excellent bathroom. Friendly and helpful staff (thank you, Ana!). Terrrific breakfast with awesome espresso. Access to a car enthusist's meca: Modena (Enzo museo), Marranello (Ferrari museo) and Sant'agata (Lamborghini museo)

Review 59:Everything including the breakfast. There were rains and storms the last night we were there and the owner helped us call for pizzas which she served with China and silverware. Will definitely go back.

Review 60:Tranquil surroundings, nice place after a long drive to relax. Room very comfortable and luxurious bathroom. Good restaurants very close by and terrace on the grounds lovely to sit and enjoy.

Review 61:Note - this is in the country so you have to drive to everything.The mosquitoes were KILLER Non smoking should really mean non smoking....not just when guests feel like it.

Review 62:The staff, the breakfast

Review 63:The only thing missing is a pool, they do have 2 outside jacuzzis but a bit hot for mid summer. this is my only negative otherwise would highly recommend Hotel Castello
