Residenza Palazzo Brenzoni

“Excellent”

Lovely quaint intimate hotel with great location in old Spoleto. Charming staff. Fantastic breakfast in room with spectacular view.

“A perfect slice of Umbria”

The basics: rooms are large, clean, quiet, good bathrooms, WiFi is excellent, location could not be more central and the proprietors are hugely welcoming and helpful. But that is only half the story. The real delight of staying in this hotel is the feeling of total immersion in deepest Umbria which we felt, quite difficult to recover from after leaving. It is a 16th century palazzo round the corner from the Duomo, on the junction of two nearly traffic-free paved alleyways. The rooms have high ceilings, stone floors, shutters on the windows. We were not in one of the rooms with views over the valley, but looked out onto the junction and the ancient wall beyond, with Italian voices drifting in from the street, and we loved the feel of being part of, rather than isolated from, the community. The proprietors, like most of the restaurants and shops in Spoleto, speak limited English. indeed the cuisine is the most local I can remember in a town. Breakfasts are wonderful, but don’t expect bacon or hash browns; think more sublime homemade jams, porcini frittata and deep-fried sage leaves; eaten in a room with a quite magnificent view and served by delightful waitresses, overseen closely by the proprietress. We loved both Spoleto and Palazzo Dragoni.

The palazzo is steeped in history and flawlessly run by Sr Roberta and his charming wife. Rooms were in traditional classic appearance. You could conjure up appearances of dragons though the palazzo had none and named after the Dragoni family ! The highlight of our stay was the daily breakfasts lovingly prepared under Mrs Roberts’s stewardship. Charming fresh flowers , produce from her garden and all requests were promptly met . Location was central steps away from the town Centre. Walked to all the sites including the famous cathedral outside which we witnessed a concert while the annual Spoletto classical music was in progress . Sr. Roberto was most helpful and also arranged the long distance pickup from Perugia airport . We would wholeheartedly recommend a stay at this romantic hotel . Roda & Harmohan Ahluwalia

“What an example of Italian hospitality ”

A very traditional hotel perfectly located in the very center of Spoleto. Everything is "old school" at its best: the old furniture and the pictures of celebrity guests of the past, the decoration with fresh flowers, the sumptuous breakfast and the "Signora" who welcomes all the guest in the breakfast room. But our special experience was that we left our passports at the reception for registration. 15 min later, the distinguished owner stood in front of our room, offering us an ice bucket with a bottle of Prosecco, two glasses and a little booklet with poems. Why? Because he had seen on the passport of my wife that it was her birthday that day. What an example of style and generosity!
