Hotel Rua Frati 48 in San Francesco

This hotel is incredible. The room was divine with high ceilings, tall doors, and beautifully decorated (including the painted ceilings) to give the utmost feeling of elegance. Every detail is thought of in providing a wonderful stay. Having the mini fridge was very nice. The bathroom was amazing, including all the amenities. Thoroughly enjoyed the jetted tub and getting out into the luscious robe. I cannot say enough good things about Andrea. He was fantastic and thoughtful of every possible need. He went out of his way to provide incredible service. Absolutely recommend this hotel for the service, room, and location to many sites in Modena.

Right in the heart of Modena this hotel is superb. The staff is extremely accommodating and on top of things. They take supreme care of their guests and ensure they have a wonderful stay. Walking distance to many of the top spots to visit in Modena. Also, Andrea at the front desk is exceptional. He was supremely helpful and always on top of things to make this a phenomenal experience.

Fantastic hotel, perfect location for exploring Modena with 5 star amenities. | |However, it is the hotel staff that really makes the stay a 6 star experience! Special thank you to Andrea and Elbira for making our stay so wonderful. ||Look forward to returning soon!

Last week we travelled to Modena and we stayed in this wonderful hotel. It was really a fantastic time there with special attention to the people who work there. I forgot to take a part of my clothes in an other hotel in Bologna and they were so kind to pick up te clothes for me. Thank you Andrea for all your help in this and special thanks for the best and kindest barman mr. Gaetano Bentivegna we ever met! David Rutten and Thirza Steinhart

We can't say enough good things about this charming hotel. Food is amazing, staff is friendly and helpful, service impeccable, and they even have a parking lot. The gym is great with a terrific sauna and steam-better than most corporate hotel gyms. The front desk staff, restaurant staff, and som are top tier. Do not miss the breakfast, which was a highlight food experience of our trip. We had room 209. It was large, comfortable, quiet, and comfy bed. It also has a large beautiful bathroom with two sinks so a couple can get ready at the same time. Great shower, and robes. We are so glad we chose this hotel. Location can't be beat. Andre recommended we eat at Zelmira, and it was one of our two best meals in Italy. Danali was also good.

Very nice hotel, beautifully maintained with friendly, professional and incredibly competent staff, and good breakfast. The room we stayed in could do with proper sound insulation as we could hear everything happening in the street, and the room decor was a bit bare, it could do with a more generous sofa, a desk, a comfortable chair etc, but overall very pleasant

While most likely in the top 2 hotels in Modena (the other most likely being Casa Luigia Maria), and certainly priced as such (I paid 1250 EUR for a night in the penthouse suite), and while the hotel is beautiful and charming in it's own way, I will not be back, and if I have to dine in Modena again, I will either try Casa LM or pay for a private driver to take me back to Milan afterwards.||I'm a bad sleeper, and unfortunately only got 2 or 3 hours of shut eye here. The AC didn't quite cool down the room as much as I wanted it to, despite putting it at the bottom, It also made quite a lot of noise. My partner and I decided to sleep in different bedrooms, because one was too warm for me and the other was too loud for her (the penthouse had 2 bedrooms which made this at least possible).||The outside church bells woke me up around 7 AM or roughly around that time (I was surprised they went so early), and unfortunately the upstairs neighbors walked quite loudly through their room, giving a loud bass sound.||Mostly, the hotel has a very distinct smell. While everything is very clean, there is just this strong "old building" smell, and I'm very smell sensitive. This musty / dusty / old smell... some people may love it, like sleeping in a museum. But was not for me.||Service was very friendly. They even called my room in the morning asking if they should keep the breakfast open a bit longer (as I hadn't showed). Very sweet.||The hotel truly looks like the pictures, and I wouldn't not recommend it, it just wasn't a fit for me as a person, but my standards are ridiculously high (I was very happy to be back at Park Hyatt Milan next night).||It definitely has a grand old charm, and I posted a room tour on IG, and all my friends were very impressed and seemed to love the idea of staying there. But it was not for me.

I was quite happy to get a chance to stay at this property in Modena. I stayed in the junior suite and the room was very roomy. The hotel is located near the city centre so it's easy for you to get around. A shout out to Andrea who went out of his way to make us feel welcome. Truly a gem to have him assist us during our stay. The hotel is worth another visit and I can't wait to be back again.
