Hotels Near Pietre Della Memoria in Modena

My husband and I booked two rooms here with a friend for one night when we were going to Osteria Francescana in May 2024. I loved this B&B so much that I wish we had stayed another night. If we ever go back to Modena, this is where we will stay. The room: The room was absolutely beautiful and very unique with high ceilings, a beautiful Murano glass chandelier, and a well appointed bathroom. The view looked out over a beautiful courtyard that was lit up with lovely lights in the evening. The air conditioning was excellent. The service: The service was excellent. We got in later than expected due to heavy rains and trouble getting a taxi, but Benedetta stayed 30 minutes late to wait for us so she could make sure to tell us about the area, hotel, and let us grab some fruit and pastries since we were leaving early the next morning. She was extremely kind and friendly - one of the nicest people we met during our month in Italy. The location: We picked this hotel because of its proximity to Osteria Francescana (it’s literally across the street, like a one minute walk), but it’s also walking distance to several shops and restaurants - we wish we had stayed longer to explore. I can’t recommend this place enough - it was amazing and very affordable (less than 200 euro per night for our room, and 130 euro per night for our friend’s room) especially compared to the other hotels we stayed at in Italy.

Just 2 minutes walkable from Modena Central station.. Surrounded by some good restaurants... Very cooperative and polite staff.. Housekeeping is excellent every day. What else do you need for a comfortable 8 days stay,..

It is the best hotel in the local area on Ctrip. The quilt of Suite 101 is not very comfortable, the bedroom and bathroom have no windows, there is a living room with windows, it feels stuffy. It is within walking distance of the Ferrari Museum and the Maserati Museum, and it is also within walking distance from the town center.

I stayed in the hotel during the July heatwave. Hence the best part of the hotel, the garden, was not really usable. The beautiful photos of the grand rooms at the reception level are really misleading. These rooms are not used for anything and are therefore adding little to the value. The worst bit was the room. Although on my own, I actually shared the room (and the bathroom) with the ants (plenty of them). When I arrived at 3 pm at 38C degrees, the fridge in the room was not working because it was unplugged. Basically the adapter was missing (both issues were dealt with after complaints, but issues like this should not arise in a 4* hotel). Note that the power points take in the old fashioned 3-pin Italian plugs and hence you need an adapter regardless of where you live. The bathroom, although clean, smelled of dampness and the shower sewage outlet was getting clogged after just a few minutes. The room, while spacious, felt very, very tired. Nobody has put a lick of paint in it for 50 years or so. Air-con was OK. The staff were a mixed bag. A young lady at the reception was the only one who put a smile on her face. The older members of the stuff looked like they are tired of everything and just waiting for retirement. Having moved from this hotel to the same-chain hotel in Bologna, the differences are to the extreme in every respect. In my mind, the only thing that is 4* in this hotel is the price. Everything else is at best 3* (cannot comment on breakfast, was not having it). On the positive side is the location of the hotel, 10 min walk to the Piazza Grande.

Very good stay in this modern clean hotel. Clever automatic check in for out of hours

The next day, I still arranged an upgraded room. I can have a 10% discount in the hotel restaurant, and the front desk provides me with a free location for meetings with customers. All the staff are very polite and kind.

Hotel is in a quiet area a little off from the highway. We had a corner suite room which was a huge room with separate living area and bedroom and it had a treadmill in the living. The only complaint is the shower water had a very strong metallic smell, not sure if it’s the plumbing or what but it was quite unpleasant. TV channels has cable TV channels so that’s nice too.

This was just a one night stop over on a lengthy car journey. Ideal. The hotel was easy to find with parking literally at the door (not on market day, though!). Friendly staff, comfortable room and excellent breakfast - I saw one review saying it was boring after a week, but there was an extensive choice and all freshly made, I am not sure what else they could offer! Correggio is a nice little town with a lively selection of bars for the passeggiata and excellent food. We went to Osteria del Filosso - quality local produce.

The rooms are quiet and personally decorated, with a nice bathroom and a good air conditioning. The owners were careful to put a bottle of water on the night boxes every day, the breakfast was too sweet to our taste (and the fruit juice was not good), but it was prepared with care, and the lemon cake was good, a good address.
