La Tortiola Country Hotel

We stayed for a few days while attending a music festival in Bondeno. Ideally we would have preferred to be in the town but there didn’t seem to anywhere suitable. As it worked out staying at La Tortiola was very successful as it also facilitated a couple of trips to the lovely Ferrara which is only about 15 mins. away. We took a large room at €90 with was good value - a nice sized bathroom with walk-in shower, and everything spotlessly clean. Breakfast was more than adequate but there was no bar nor restaurant facility during our stay and this was a shame. The pool is a good size and clean. There is also ample parking. The proprietor’s daughter, Antonietta, runs the show and speaks English well enough for non-Italian speaking guests to successfully communicate. In summary, very happy to recommend La Tortiola as somewhere to stay in the Bondeno area.

Everyone of us know that there isn't a place better than Home. In this hotel i find a great location, good service and the owner and her family are really nice persons. For sure i will be there again.

This hotel is really situated in the middle of nowhere at 10 km of Ferrara. It is relatively new and situated in an old building (I believe it used to be a kind of farm or stables). The renovation was done with the best materials. The rooms are superb, with large windows. Only the view is nothing special (middle of nowhere, remember). Since this is a small hotel, the standard services are not always flawless (our hotel key’s needed to be re-activated the second day and it took some time to get the airco up and running). But next to that, this 3-star hotel offers a 5-star service. The owner and her staff did the maximum to provide a personal service. The swimming pool area can be a little crowded since the hotel allows local people to use the pool.

L'hotel è in mezzo alla campagna ferrarese. È' grazioso ma bisognoso di manutenzione. Il personale è cordiale, ma soltanto i dipendenti. La camera assegnataci era spaziosa ma con illuminazione insufficiente e senza neppure un armadio in cui appendere gli abiti (cosa mai vista prima). La cucina sembra discreta.

Comfortable room, spacious, beautiful bathroom, road was a bit noisy in the evening

Chambre propre, climatisée.piscine agréable. Hôtel au calme, à 20 mn en voiture de Ferrare.

Supertrevligt litet hotell på landet utanför Ferrara. 5+++ i gästvänlighet och service. God mat med personal som verkligen bryr sig om gästerna. Man berättar vad man är sugen på om det inte finns på menyn så löser dom det. Pool och solmöjligheter på baksidan. Bil ett måste

Ho dormito solo una notte in questo hotel ma devo dire che mi sono trovato benissimo. Colazione abbondante e personale gentile e disponibile

I spent a fantastic weekend in this small and elegant country resort in a city pretty and elegant, Ferrara (famous capital of the Italian Renaissance). The staff is exquisite and the director is "present" nice and friendly. The pool is gorgeuos small but well maintained, elegant garden and very nice decor of the rooms. Service is also excellent in the restaurant, with dishes simple but excellent, fantastic "local cuisine" and all Organic products (KM Zero). I recommend for w-e to relax and visit, Modena, Ferrara and Mantua, given the central and barycentrical great location (50km-30 min each!).

I stay 3 days in this hotel and I was surprised to find a very nice location with a very good restaurant. Is quiet, clean and very polite. I recomand and I congratulate the owner for the good taste. I feel very good and I relax after the daily work. Don't miss this hotel. You will not regret.
