Ripagrande Hotel

Frommer's Review

The Ripagrande, one of the town's unusual hotels, occupies a Renaissance palace. Coffered ceilings, walls in Ferrarese brickwork, 16th-century columns, and a wide staircase with a floral cast-iron handrail characterize the entrance hall. Inside are two Renaissance courtyards decorated with columns and capitals. Half of the guest rooms are junior suites with sleeping areas connected to an internal stairway. The rooms are spacious, with tasteful furnishings, which are often antique reproductions. Some of the units are trilevel, with a garretlike bedroom above. The most desirable are on the top floor, opening onto terraces overlooking the red-tile roofs.
