The Hotel Umbra is an excellent choice for visiting Assisi and exploring the surrounding area. My wife and I stayed here for 4 nights in mid-June, ‘23, and enjoyed it very much, The hotel is in a great location just off the Piazza Del Commune and in the center of the historic section of town. There is no long term parking nearby, so it is a bit of a challenge if you have a car to drop or pick up your luggage. The hotel sent directions that involved parking briefly in front of the Tourist Information Office located on one edge of the square, then proceeding through the narrow streets to a parking area (note, you can drive to the edges of the square but not through it). However, we wound up parking in the Matteotti Parking Garage then walking to the hotel for better driving directions. We then parked temporarily on the other side of the square in the Taxi Stand area, dropping one person and the luggage, then driving an easy route back to Matteotti. We reversed this when we departed. Rolling your luggage is slightly farther but still a reasonable distance. This may sound daunting, but it is worth the trouble. The hotel is a friendly and welcoming place with a lovely garden terrace at the entrance (a restaurant in pre-Covid days), a small cozy lobby, and a large breakfast room off to one side. The family owners were the front desk staff and were very helpful in providing directions, suggestions, and recommendations. Our room (#32) was on the 2nd (U.S.) floor, easily reached by an elevator. It was very large and had a nice rooftop view of part of town and the valley beyond. There was a sofa, a low and firm king bed, two night stands, desk, dresser with lots of storage space, an armoire, and a small refrigerator. About the only downside of the room was the scarcity of outlets, a legacy of the age of the building most likely. Wifi was strong and fast. The attractive bathroom was reached by a couple of steps. It wasn’t large but adequate, with a small shower and bidet. There was only a small amount of storage on the vanity. Breakfast was pretty good – some fresh fruit, fruit juice, single cup coffee machine, yogurt, scrambled eggs (a bit salty for our tastes), and an array of baked goods. Note that Rick Steves recommends the hotel and his tour groups use it. If you mention his name you may get a 10% discount. We also recommend it and wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again. It is a convenient, comfortable, and welcoming choice for visiting Assisi.
