“Family atmosphere”

First of all, try the olive oil... it's so good. We stayed for a few nights whilst visiting Assisi and the surrounding area by train.

First of all, try the olive oil... it's so good. We stayed for a few nights whilst visiting Assisi and the surrounding area by train. It's a nice simple hotel (very good bed, nice bathroom) but a long way down the hill from Assisi. Seriously, Piaggia di S. Francesco is a steep road, especially if you've decided to carry your bags to the bus stop on the way to get the train (made it eventually, with a couple of stops to "admire the view"/catch my breath). The hotel and restaurant are run by a nice family, and the breakfast was fantastic and plentiful. If you can cope with the hill and you're happy with a family atmosphere (service isn't instantaneous, but then it's a relaxed place so it really doesn't matter) then this is a good hotel. The food was very good, so be prepared to eat a lot, all courses arrive as large portions.

“It was ok”

For one night it was ok. Its a bit of a walk back into Assisi up hill, at least the walk back is easier. Heaps of car parking is one of the reasons we choose it, as we like to go out for dinner and not worry about driving. What would be good and we have found it in few places in Italy, is a card ... lisää

Heaps of car parking is one of the reasons we choose it, as we like to go out for dinner and not worry about driving. What would be good and we have found it in few places in Italy, is a card in several languages stating wifi sign in, breakfast timings, instructions for air cond, local public transport etc. Could even write the room price after we had a misunderstanding, even though we asked twice ( we learnt to write it down now). Our review is based on the fact it was ‘ok’ for us and that was about it.

“Great lunch”

We stopped here after 11 mile hike on the Saint Francis trail. Service and food were excellent. They brought us lentils with just pressed olive oil and bruschetta. Spaghetti with truffle was great and the ravioli with cream sauce and truffle was superb!

“Small B & B Type”

Ponte San Vittorino is a bit dated but simple and clean. Everyone was very nice. The hotel owner even gave us a ride up to the St. Frances of Assisi church which is the gateway to the city of Assisi. I thought this was a nice personal touch. The breakfast was great. Lots of table served offerings... lisää

I thought this was a nice personal touch. The breakfast was great. Lots of table served offerings. The shower is a bit tight and the towels are more of a fine table linen rather than a terry towel but I think this is simply a more European experience. the TV was an old small TV and there was very poor reception. This is more of a budget type hotel but really a great value when you consider the breakfast offered.
