Hotel San Francesco, Assisi

Located right in the centre of the historic city of Assisi, in Umbria, the Hotel San Francesco is just 600 metres away from the main square and Piazza del Comune. And this Assisi hotel sits directly opposite the famous Basilica of St Francis, completed in 1253, with its stunning frescoes.

This three-star Umbrian hotel was completely renovated in 1988 and the old brick building has 44 soundproofed bedrooms all equipped with bathroom, air conditioning, satellite TV, radio, safe, direct dial telephone, minibar and hair-dryer. Some of the rooms have views of the Basilica and the beautiful Umbrian countryside. The roof terrace, where guests can drink and dine, has panoramic views of city and surrounding hills and plain. The restaurant serves local, regional and international cuisine and there is also a bar open only to guests.

This Assisi hotel also operates a shuttle bus that links up with all the city car parks. Declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO, the delights and attractions of Assisi are all on this hotel's doorstep - the beautiful cobbled-stoned old town, the many museums, libraries and churches, the city's two medieval castles and ancient Roman city walls, forum, amphitheatre and theatre.

There is also the awe-inspiring cathedral of St Rufino, built on a Roman cistern, with its three circular 'rose windows' and Gothic interior and the Roman Temple of Minerva, now the Church of Santa Maria sopra Minerva. Internet and baby-sitting services are available. Pets are allowing and nearby free parking is available. The nearest international airports to this hotel in Assisi are Rome and Florence.
