We loved our stay here, what a gorgeous property! It is super close to center of Perugia too, you both feel like in the countryside but you are also right in the city. We can’t wait to go back!

A stunning boutique “castle” hotel, fantastic restaurant for dinner!!! Nice pool and hot tub. The view of Perugia is wonderful, especially during sunset. The staffs are helpful and warm. A few minor improvements can be made, like proving water/coffee/tea in room? The shower hot water was not consistent in my room.

Lovely place big you want the castle experience in the center of Italy, few options like this one. Very well restored castle with beautiful grounds. Not huge, so very cozy. We were just there in December, and we were lucky to have nice weather. But I am sure in spring or early summer it must be fantastic. They have a pool and 2 hot tubs. One this I pointed out, is the mattress and pillows need to be upgraded to reflect the level of the structure and excellent service. On the latter, everyone is extremely nice, and being more of a boutique setting, it is nice to get to know everyone. To finish, the restaurant is excellent. worth a stop but if for just dinner. it is very close to Perugia, so if you are renting a car, totally worth it.

The property was breathtaking. Beautiful in every way. The short taxi ride to the city center and incredible views of Perugia from the property made it enjoyable. Our only criticism is that it was noisy at night.

This was our second stay at Castello di Monterone. It really is one of the best hotels we have ever stayed at. The property and grounds are absolutely stunning! It is so peaceful and relaxing. All the staff are incredibly friendly and helpful. The restaurant adjacent to the hotel is also wonderful. The location is great for exploring the towns and sights of Perugia! We will DEFINITELY be returning!

So interesting to stay in a castle. It’s a lively property and the restaurant (breakfast and dinner) is great. There is an easy atmosphere and the staff is helpful at all times. It’s very close to Perugia and the views are amazing.

This was the most beautiful property we have ever stayed at. Staying in a castle with so much history in the 13th century was surreal. The bedroom was a bit dark but castles aren't known for their big windows. Bed and bathroom were great. We had dinner there 3 nights which was also superb with good wines to match and reasonably priced for where we were. A gorgeous view from the restaurant and other areas. Perfect.

The Castle is gorgeous but make sure to arrive before dark as it's very difficult to find afterwards! When you arrive, follow the sign for "Residenza" - DO NOT follow the parking signs or you'll end up in the middle of nowhere wandering around in the dark as we did! Once we made it to the hotel, thato a very kind man who works in the restaurant, it was lovely, and the view when we woke up the next morning was spectacular!

This castle is magic. It has all the modern perks and it preserves the authentic feeling of the castle. Sleeping there feels like being part of a fairytale. The location and the view are breathtaking. Fantastic location to use as a base to visit Perugia too.

October half term trip
Perfect location, 15 mins from the airport, peaceful with fantastic views of Perugia and the sound of church bells echoing across the valley below. You definitely need transport though as it is too far to walk to the city centre. We stayed as a family of 4 in two interconnecting rooms. No damp castle rooms here, they are warm and dry and larger than we expected after some of the other reviews, one superior (with great view) and one standard. Restaurant is a little lacking in atmosphere but food is good and staff are excellent. Breakfast is in the same place and is simple but good quality. Pool is not heated but there is a sauna/steam next to it Overall this hotel is superb value, pushing 5 stars and we will be coming back.

We were not disappointed by our selection of Castello di Monterone for our 3 day stay in Umbria. All accommodations are in modernised castle rooms. We were in Gastaldo - one of the Superior rooms with views out onto the Umbrian countryside. Absolutely beautiful. The restaurant at the Castello is excellent - see separate review. The Castle grounds and gardens are superbly maintained and clean. There is a swimming pool, but we did not get around to making use of this during this short stay. A good buffet breakfast is available. WiFi is OK and there was plenty of open air parking available at the time of our visit. Great base for those planning to visit Perugia and the local Umbrian attractions.

PHENOMENAL stay
This was a truly phenomenal stay. Pictures can not do this place justice. It is absolutely perfect. I recommend staying in the rooms with a view and eating at the restaurant. The staff at the castle including the restaurant were above and beyond to make us feel like royalty. The breakfast was also way more than a simple continental breakfast, it was delicious. Also do get a car and explore Perugia town.

Fantasy Castle on Hill
This is real castle, albeit it was modernized so it is sort of eclectic as to period. It is on hill top about 10 km from Perugia and you can see the town of Perugia from some of the rooms, from the restaurant terrace and from the castle gardens. We were there in mid May and everything in the garden (especially the roses) was blooming. The staff at the hotel are friendly and helpful and the restaurant is surprisingly good. There is sufficient free parking for hotel guests in a lot above the garden. However, for touring of Perugia itself what I would strongly recommend is to take a taxi from the hotel to the main square in the town. There are Zona Traffica Limitada (ZTL) areas within Perugia and the streets are VERY narrow and confusing and parking in town is limited. The taxi fair is cheap and you can have wine with lunch or dinner and not worry about drinking and driving. We stayed in a lots of lovely places on this 3 week trip to Italy but my wife and her cousin picked this as their favorite hotel of the entire stay.
This a wall in our bedroom. Look closely and you can see effects of war and multiple rebuilding of the castle over the years.

Great location with fabulous view of Perugia and close to Assisi. Pool was small but refreshing. Spa ( dry and steam) were both great. Dinner and breakfast were excellent. Service was great. Would definitely recommend to others and would stay here again.
