A four-star a few steps from the basilica
The Giotto Hotel & Spa is at Via Fontebella, 41, the street that runs down from Piazza San Francesco towards Porta San Francesco, on the western edge of the historic centre. It is a four-star hotel with relais status, with a main building and an annexe, and is designed for those who want to sleep inside the walls but with parking at the door. From the entrance you walk to the basilica in a few minutes, along the same street, and to Piazza del Comune going up through the centre.
Its strong point is the slope: almost all the rooms in the main building look onto the Umbrian valley, towards Santa Maria degli Angeli and the plain. At sunset, from the terrace of the Belvedere bar, you see the lights of the valley come on. If you sleep here, you can enter the lower basilica first thing, before the groups arrive.
The rooms
There are standard rooms, from 18 to 20 m², with a view of the valley, the city or the alleys, depending on whether they are in the main building or the annexe. Above them, the Charme Superior have 28 m² and a 40 m² terrace with a porch, and the junior suites (35 m²) and suites (50 m²) take up to three people. The two largest suites have terraces of 60 and 70 m² above the valley. Beware of some junior suites and suites on the top floor: they are reached by stairs and have no lift. If you are travelling with someone who cannot climb stairs, ask for another when you book.
Spa, breakfast and restaurant
The La Sorgente spa is small and private, for a few people at a time, with treatments and massages that are booked; the website does not publish hours or prices. Breakfast is a buffet, sweet and savoury, cold and hot, with attention to special diets. The hotel has its own restaurant, L'Estasi, and rooms for weddings and events, so on some weekends there are celebrations.
Getting there and parking
The centre of Assisi has restricted traffic, but the hotel has private parking in front of the entrance: €20 per car per night, by reservation and until it is full. If there is no space, reception will point you to the nearest public car park. Without a car, from Santa Maria degli Angeli station a city bus goes up to the centre and you walk down Via Fontebella.
