Elias Bed & Breakfast, Ferrara Overview
Elias Bed & Breakfast is located in Ferrara, Italy. Rated 7.5 out of 10 based on 12 guest reviews.
Elias Bed & Breakfast is a small, welcoming stay in Ferrara, Italy, set on Viale 4 Novembre, 47, a practical base for exploring the city at a comfortable pace. The property’s garden and terrace are a real bonus when you want a quiet moment between visits, and the daily free buffet breakfast gives you an easy start without needing to plan breakfast out. Luggage storage helps if your schedule doesn’t line up neatly with check-in, and the express check-in/check-out process is designed for smoother arrivals and departures.
With a guest rating of 7.5/10 from 12 reviews, the overall impression is steady rather than flashy. Travelers often mention the value of having breakfast included and appreciate the calm outdoor spaces, while some note that the front desk operates on limited hours, so it’s worth planning your arrival window carefully. Parking is available but limited, which can matter during busier periods.

The location also works well for day-to-evening outings, whether you’re pairing museums with aperitivo or returning for a relaxed breakfast.
Elias Bed & Breakfast is best for solo explorers and couples who want an uncomplicated base with breakfast and outdoor space, and for anyone comfortable managing check-in timing around limited front desk hours.
