Sangallo Palace Hotel

“Good choice though somewhat stark”

Very well located and easy walk to the city center and sites. Located literally across from a main bus terminal making for easy travel to nearby towns such as Assisi.

Very well located and easy walk to the city center and sites. Located literally across from a main bus terminal making for easy travel to nearby towns such as Assisi. The main train station is a 10 minute taxi ride - EUR 10-15. Efficient and helpful front desk; good elevator service; breakfast with a wide variety of choices - also open for dinner (except on Sunday). Some, not many restaurants in the area for those who prefer to stay close to the hotel. Rooms are large though rather stark ; beautiful views of Perugia; very comfortable bed; quiet and clean room. No coffee machine or kettle in the room (if you want a hot drink before breakfast opens at 7 pm, you need to ask whomever is manning the front desk to prepare coffee or tea for you). The hotel charges EUR 2 for a small bottle of water in the mini-bar ... should be complementary like most hotels these days. General comment: while the hotel is efficient, clean, and comfortable, it seems rather cold and sterile with little personality.

“Fabulous hotel for our short stay”

Nice and comfortable hotel, very near the city centre. The hotel staff is more than kind, and would recommend Sangalo Hotel for business travellers but also if you are a tourist and want to explore the beautiful city of Perugia.

Nice and comfortable hotel, very near the city centre. The hotel staff is more than kind, and would recommend Sangalo Hotel for business travellers but also if you are a tourist and want to explore the beautiful city of Perugia. The old city centre is easily accessible from the hotel and there you can find charming small Italian restaurants with excellent food.

“Cool place for a conference ”

I had read different experiences reviewers had: that it was cold and unfriendly, and also that it was excellent. So I didn't know what to expect. My impression was that it wanted to look modern, perhaps 'cool' and efficient, from the lobby to the breakfast. The staff were friendly but a little cool… more

I had read different experiences reviewers had: that it was cold and unfriendly, and also that it was excellent. So I didn't know what to expect. My impression was that it wanted to look modern, perhaps 'cool' and efficient, from the lobby to the breakfast. The staff were friendly but a little cool, the room appeared new, and very comfortable. Breakfast was a cafeteria experience, but I thought the food was good. The staff were very helpful about storing our luggage for a few hours after we checked out, and in giving local information. Four and a half stars really, more of a work-related than a romantic ambiance.

“A comfortable hotel with a few irritating features”

We had a modern and comfortable room and the decoration of the hotel is to a high standard. It is well located close to the foot of the wonderful escalators that take one up to the old town.

We had a modern and comfortable room and the decoration of the hotel is to a high standard. It is well located close to the foot of the wonderful escalators that take one up to the old town. Finding the entrance is not easy as it is not adequately signposted and parking while dropping off bags or departing is difficult. Staff should provide directions on their website and then written directions to the public car park nearby. It is also irritating that the swimming pool does not open before 8am, effectively preventing a swim before breakfast—and charging guests to use the pool is just petty: it’s a facility promoted on the website and should be available to residents without charge. Charging guests for a bottle of water in the room—in my experience this is universally provided free of charge—is also petty. No help with bags was offered.
