Perugia or Assisi: Where to Stay?

Planning a trip to Umbria can be challenging. It’s easy to focus only on the most famous destinations, but the true magic of this region often lies beyond them, in the smaller towns, the hidden corners, and the places you discover along the way.

If you are planning to visit Assisi and want to experience the best of both worlds, its iconic landmarks and the wider beauty of Umbria, choosing where to stay becomes essential.

This is where Perugia offers a unique advantage. Staying in Perugia allows you to reach Assisi in just 20 minutes, with well-connected train and road options, making it an easy and comfortable day trip.

At the same time, you are based in a larger, more dynamic city, with more restaurants, events, cultural sites and places to explore throughout the day and evening.

From Perugia, you are also perfectly positioned to discover many of Umbria’s most beautiful destinations, including Gubbio, Lake Trasimeno and Terni, making it an ideal base to explore the region beyond a single stop.
