Palazzo Dragoni

Ein historisches Gebäude, sehr gut erhalten mit geräumigen Zimmern. Das Personal sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit, die Besitzer sehr herzlich. Ein ausgezeichnetes Frühstück, das keine Wünsche offen lässt, die Aussicht ist unbezahlbar.

Dai siti e dalle immagini si ha una aspettativa importante Nella realtà un po’ di meno struttura un po’ datata in tutti i sensi Gentile il personale ottima la colazione

The basics: rooms are large, clean, quiet, good bathrooms, WiFi is excellent, location could not be more central and the proprietors are hugely welcoming and helpful. But that is only half the story. The real delight of staying in this hotel is the feeling of total immersion in deepest Umbria which we felt, quite difficult to recover from after leaving. It is a 16th century palazzo round the corner from the Duomo, on the junction of two nearly traffic-free paved alleyways. The rooms have high ceilings, stone floors, shutters on the windows. We were not in one of the rooms with views over the valley, but looked out onto the junction and the ancient wall beyond, with Italian voices drifting in from the street, and we loved the feel of being part of, rather than isolated from, the community. The proprietors, like most of the restaurants and shops in Spoleto, speak limited English. indeed the cuisine is the most local I can remember in a town. Breakfasts are wonderful, but don’t expect bacon or hash browns; think more sublime homemade jams, porcini frittata and deep-fried sage leaves; eaten in a room with a quite magnificent view and served by delightful waitresses, overseen closely by the proprietress. We loved both Spoleto and Palazzo Dragoni.
