WHERE WE ARE
FEW MINUTES AWAY FROM THE OLD HISTORIC CENTRE OF FERRARA
Il giardino di Rebecca B&B is located in Ferrara, a UNESCO World Heritage Site for its historic centre, near the Ferrara Nord motorway exit on the A13 Bologna-Padua motorway, but 3.5 km from the historic centre.
We are close to the chemical hub with the headquarters of Lyondell-Basell, Yara, Eni Power and Versalis, the Cassana SME area with the headquarters of Hera, the technology hub with the headquarters of the engineering faculty, but also convenient for reaching the stadium and railway station less than 2 km away, and the Ferrara exhibition centre, home to important events and competitions.
In 10 minutes you can also reach Vigarano Mainarda, Pontelagoscuro, Santa Maria Maddalena and Occhiobello beyond the Po River in Veneto. Ideal accommodation also for workers at the military and NATO air base in Poggio Renatico.
FAQ
Bike rental
Please let us know in advance if you are interested in having a bicycle available. We can arrange for one to be ready for you, or we can direct you to a trusted rental shop if you prefer to drive to the city centre and then continue by bike. The rental shop is specialised and also offers bikes with child seats.
Connections to the centre
The journey time by car to reach the historic centre is 10 minutes, by bicycle 15 minutes. We would not recommend our accommodation to those arriving on foot, as the local bus service is not particularly efficient.
How do I get to the B&B from the train station?
We are about 2.5 km from the station. Upon request and subject to availability, we offer a shuttle service. Alternatively, you can reach us with a short taxi ride or by city bus (the bus stop is just a few steps away). However, there are 150 metres without pavements between the bus stop in Via Arginone and the B&B, which is not recommended if you have luggage or are travelling in the evening.

It is free of charge and located within our enclosed property. No booking is required, and you can leave your car there safely for the entire duration of your stay.
