Perugia

Just an hour away from our hotel, along the E45 highway, lies Perugia, the capital of Umbria.

Perched on a hilltop, Perugia blends the charm of a medieval village with the vibrancy of a university city.

It is renowned and admired throughout Italy and abroad for its must-see historical and cultural landmarks, such as the Rocca Paolina, Palazzo dei Priori, and the Galleria Nazionale dell’Umbria, which houses the largest art collection in the region, featuring masterpieces from the 13th to the 19th century.

Another unmissable spot is Corso Vannucci, the city’s main street, which leads to Piazza IV Novembre, home to the Fontana Maggiore and its central staircase.

From our hotel, you can also quickly reach another highly sought-after destination among visitors: Lake Trasimeno, located north of Perugia. This lake is the perfect place to spend a day outdoors, in direct contact with nature.

Every year, Perugia hosts internationally renowned events, such as: Eurochocolate, the famous chocolate festival, which attracts both young and old guests staying at the Garden Hotel. Umbria Jazz, a world-class event featuring some of the greatest jazz musicians from around the globe.

Just like everywhere in Umbria, in Perugia, you can savor traditional regional cuisine, enriched by the famous extra virgin olive oil from our hills and accompanied by prestigious local wines, such as Rosso di Montefalco, Sagrantino, and Grechetto.
