This hotel is right across from the mobile stairs (escalator) to the central area of Perugia. The owners and staff were all extremely helpful. The interior is very medieval/historical but there is a small elevator for those with heavy suitcases. Our room had a balcony with a perfect view of both the mountains and city center. There is parking available for 10 euros a night. A very nice breakfast was served daily.

“Beautiful hotel with stunning views!”

Beautiful hotel close to the city center! Our room was extremely comfortable and had a stunning view of the hillside. The breakfast room was cheery, and each day there was a nice assortment of delicious things to eat. The staff couldn't have been more pleasant or helpful! I will definitely be back!

“Ihmisarvo halvalle lomalle”

Hotelli on erittäin hyvällä paikalla, voit helposti kävellä keskustaan tai ottaa minimetron. Henkilökunta oli ystävällistä ja mukavaa. Huoneet olivat suuria ja kohtuullisen mukavia, vain varokaa, että kaikki on hyvin vanhaa ja tarvitsee kipeästi korvaamista. Huoneessa oli jääkaappi, mutta pistok... lisää

Huoneet olivat suuria ja kohtuullisen mukavia, vain varokaa, että kaikki on hyvin vanhaa ja tarvitsee kipeästi korvaamista. Huoneessa oli jääkaappi, mutta pistoke ei sovi pistorasioihin, joten jouduimme käyttämään sovitinta hiustenkuivaajasta. Kylpyhuone oli puhdas, mutta makuuhuone oli melko pölyistä.

“An "Adequate" Hotel from the Past”

I was a bit disappointed on entry.

I was a bit disappointed on entry. The hotel was facing an overlooking tower-block covered with scaffolding (not very scenic) and inside it looked like it had not seen paint or new furniture since Moussolini's time. There is a small lift built in to the square staircase. The room was (allegedly) "decorated" in the same style but at least it was large. I had a corner room - one window faced the aforesaid tower block, but the other revealed a startlingly beautiful view over the Umbria countryside. If the decor was WW2 era then the electricals must have been installed during the Renaissance. Of the three (single) sockets in the room I was only brave enough to use two (both with a triple adaptor) as the other one was loose enough that even Dr Frankenstein might have been wary of using it in his laboratory. There's no air conditioning (a portable unit is apparently available at extra cost) although there was a large fan provided. For me this meant sleeping with both windows open and the fan on. I later met some people who did the same and were suddenly woken at 6am one morning thanks to a bird that flew in through the open window! The bathroom was clean but very simply equipped (basic shower, sink, bidet and nothing else). Only tiny guest soaps and sachets of shampoo were provided. Breakfast was generally OK. Typical help-yourself "continental" style (a few sliced meats, cheese, croissants, coffee, (again, alleged) juice etc.). There was a very small bar in reception but it looked like it hasn't been used since sometime in the 1950s. I certainly never saw anyone using it. A takeaway small drinks and snacks selection (water, beer, wine, crisps) was available from a chiller. The staff were good. The night porter who let me in didn't speak English but that was OK - we got by by pointing, miming and laughing. Don't expect "normal" European/US style of hotel amenities and services though. There was free wi-fi in the room at least. The location is neither good nor bad but is about half-way up the steep hill upon which the old town of Perugia sits. It is quite close to an escalator (moving stairs) which will take you part-way to the very top where the medieval town centre is, but you can't really avoid steep hills in Perugia. The hotel is NOT near the longer "Mini Metro" monorail-type system (as stated in some reviews; I don't know where they got this idea from) that takes you almost to the top - that is located towards the south of the old city. I would say I "got used" to the hotel rather than actually "liked" it. I suppose as an example of 1950s/1960s style European small-medium hotels it was an "interesting" place to be, but I'm not sure if that's much of a selling point!
