I highly recommend Alkimia to anyone who wants to stay in Ferrara. Strategic location a stone's throw from the historic center, internal parking, very simple and fast automatic check-in. I chose a triple room; comfortable beds, furnishings with attention to detail and perfectly clean. The strong point however remains the professionalism and kindness of the owner. He is very thoughtful in explaining everything and has set up a truly delightful relaxation room for his guests. Compliments.

Just back from a long weekend: cozy and clean rooms, new structure in the center, but at the same time far from the confusion. Parking in the inner courtyard, possibility to have an herbal tea or coffee in the relaxation area and possibility to buy a drink from the mini bar available. Like being at home. Before arrival we were provided with useful information about restaurants, museums and everything you needed to visit Ferrare, really professional. Absolutely d advise

I had a very comfortable stay at Alchimia. It is walking distance to city centrum. The owner is very friendly and helpfull. The breakfast is good and the owner cooks so delicious omlettes and prepares very good cappucino.
I definitely recommend this place.

We stay for two nights.
We had a really good time!
Reserved parking, spacious room, clean and tidy. The hotel overlooks a quiet street with little traffic. No external noise (our room gave, among other things on the internal garden). Very recent bathroom, perfect toilets and sink, super shower.
400 meters from the Estensi Castle and then in the city center.
Reception, and hospitality online perfect and immediate; "comfort" room a nice surprise.
If you go to Ferrara and stay here, make a good choice.

A central and strategic place in Ferrara. You can leave the car and travel around the city easily. Enter and exit conveniently with the card key. Very clean and spacious. Relaxation area where you can have a small, very comfortable breakfast. We'll be back!

Our only disappointment in Alchimia is that we had only one night there. It is a fabulous little B&B with just six rooms. Great low-key location in Ferrara that is not over touristed. A good base for the region if you do not want to stay in Bologna. We walked to all the sights in town. Modern rooms housed in an old building with comfortable beds and fabulous bathrooms. The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful. We got great restaurant recommendations and touring tips. The breakfast is amazing with many homemade items. Alchimia has earned a place on my list of best places to stay.

This is an absolutely beautiful place. The attention to detail in the design of the rooms, bathrooms and the common areas of this b&b is remarkable. Everything is comfortable, clean and very pleasing to the eye. The location is also good with just a few minutes by foot to the very centre of town. Free parking in the lovely courtyard is a further plus. The delicious breakfast featuring amongst other things fresh fruit, home-made cakes and made-to-order eggs is also worth mentioning. The proprietor is charming and goes out of his way to ensure that his guests have a comfortable stay. In short: a fantastic find!

Christineingleton1 asked a question Oct 2017
Sheffield, United Kingdom16 contributions42 helpful votesCan you tell me which is the quietest (away from traffic noise) and largest room please.thanks christine
We were at the front overlooking the street and had no noise issues at all so I wouldn't be too concerned particularly as it isn't on a main road.
Good morning,
the rooms have views of the garden are the 103 and the 104.
best regards
Euro and Valentina
