La propiedad — Rosalba Hotel
The Rosalba Hotel is a no-frills two-star in central Perugia, offering clean rooms and a straightforward breakfast at a price that suits budget-conscious travellers. Its lobby is small and functional, with tiled floors, a reception desk, and a couple of armchairs; the real draw is the location, a short walk from Piazza IV Novembre. This place works for backpackers, students, or anyone who prioritises position over polish and doesn't mind basic amenities.
Crónicas de Perugia
Perugia was founded by the Umbri people before becoming an Etruscan stronghold, which left the city with its steep stone streets and the massive Etruscan walls still visible today. In the Middle Ages, it grew into a wealthy commune under the Papal States, fighting rival towns and commissioning frescoes from artists like Perugino. The 15th-century Rocca Paolina fortress (later partly demolished) was built by Pope Paul III to control the restive locals. Today Perugia balances its medieval core with a lively student population, thanks to the University for Foreigners, and a calendar of cultural festivals that keep the old city buzzing.

Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Rosalba Hotel, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the second floor facing the courtyard (rear of building). These are quieter and likely have a bit more natural light than first-floor rooms with similar orientation.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on the first floor (European first floor = ground floor) at the front overlooking Piazza del Circo. Also avoid any room directly above the lobby or stairwell, where foot traffic and reception noise will be constant.
Best views
The best view from this address would be of the piazza itself, from a front-facing upper floor. But given the 2-star rating, a quiet room with decent light is probably more useful than a noisy view. If you must have a view, request third floor front.
Quietest floors
Second floor (European second floor, i.e. one floor above ground) and above, as long as they don't face the piazza. Top floor may have less street noise but check for lift machinery if the lift goes that high.
🔊 Noise notes
Piazza del Circo is a small square used for parking and pedestrian passage in Perugia's historic centre. Expect moped, delivery van and foot traffic from early morning until late evening. The hotel entrance is directly on the square so check-in noise will be audible in ground-floor rooms.
Insider tips
1. If arriving by car, the closest public parking is the Piazza del Circo car park (paid, limited spaces) – ask reception for a discount voucher; otherwise use the escalator from Piazza Partigiani and walk up. 2. Request a room with a window that opens (some 2-star rooms in historic buildings only have internal windows or small skylights) – specifically ask if the room has a window onto the courtyard.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available
