And, there is also an outdoor patio located off the lobby bar with plenty of seating. There is also one restaurant on the floor directly below the lobby, with a large patio. The location is conveniently located. Rooms are small and traditional but nothing out of the ordinary for a city like Assisi. Beds were not terribly comfortable but the daily housekeeping was on point. The only reason I didn't give five stars is the in-room AC -- inadequate to keep the room at a comfortable temperature, given the very hot weather during our July visit. Didn't sleep well as a result.

There is also a nice restaurant in the hotel. We stayed here in the winter of 2022 for 3 nights and were very happy with everything. The daily breakfast in their elegant dining room with an expansive view is something we will remember for a long time! Though it's away from the Assisi town center, there's a bus stop right in front and the bus takes you to the foothill of Basilica St. Francis, the main attraction in this town. While the facility is nice, it's the service of their dedicated staff that prompted me to leave this 5-star review. Everyone from the front desk to restaurant staff was friendly, courteous and patient with our very broken Italian- most speak English so we had no problem here.

It was one of those "buy the ticket then figure out when you're going" situations (if anyone else does that...). Luckily, this wound up being a great decision. The Relais is the quintessentially charming Italian getaway we were hoping for. The staff is exceptionally friendly (and for the most part speaks nearly perfect English - a major plus when your Italian is as cringe-worthy as mine). They really were fantastic. Be forewarned, the resort itself is about 35-40 minute drive from the actual city of Perugia. There is basically nothing on-site except their passable restaurant and a small spa. It's perfect for people who really want to unwind, but not ideal as a home-base for touring the area. (One half-star off for this.) The restaurant on-site is OK, but honestly was one of our least favorite meals in Italy. (Another half-star off for this.) We wound up going down the street several times to a small place called La Locanda del Colle; you will absolutely need a reservation because it's tiny and DELICIOUS. My recommendations if you pass through and decide to stay in the area: brace yourself for the most unbelievable views, morning and night. It's truly breathtaking! Also, if you are looking for a wine tour, we really liked Gusto Wine Tours. They are local and regularly pick folks up from the Relais. (No Yelp page so just shouting out here!)

If you're staying in or near Perugia and you want to get away from the crowds of the city center,…read moreyou can't do better than Castello di Monterone. Situated on the opposite side of the valley east of the city, along a ridge that separates Perugia from Ponte Valliceppi, the renovated castle is both a perfect spot for exploring Perugia and as a jumping off point for trips to Assisi, Spoleto, or wherever else in Umbria your fancy takes you. If you have a car, Perugia's city center is a short 5 to 10 minute drive, and taxi's can get you there for about EUR 12. The nighttime views of Perugia are stunning, and the castle itself could not be more charming with winding stairs that lead to rooms, balconies, and towers, in addition to the hearths, portals, and dungeons that you'd expect from a castle whose foundation was started in the 14th century. Although the rooms are not big, they are very comfortable, nicely appointed, and many have spectacular views of the Umbrian countryside. Try for a room on the western side of the castle for the best views. Finally, the hotel's on-site restaurant, Gradale, serves delicious Umbrian fare at what we considered to be very reasonable prices. Some of the better meals we had during a recent trip to Tuscany and Umbria were our meals at Gradale. All in all, our stay at Castello di Monterone was one of the most pleasant aspects of our recent vacation, and the hotel itself one of the best we've stayed in in recent memory.
