La proprietà — Centova Hotel
Centova Hotel is a no-fuss 3-star near Perugia's train station, geared towards travellers who value transport links and practical comfort over charm. The lobby is clean, modern and functional — think laminate floors, a small reception desk and a lift that works — rather than a place to linger. The USP is its location: five minutes on foot from Piazza Partigiani and the escalators up to the historic centre, so you can dump your bags and be at the cathedral inside fifteen minutes. It suits those passing through Umbria for a night or two, or anyone on a tight budget who wants a reliable base rather than a boutique experience.
Cronache di Perugia
Perugia was founded by the Etruscans as one of their twelve major cities, and traces of their 4th-century BC walls still ring the centre. After the Romans and a turbulent medieval period, the city became a papal stronghold, which is why its character is more fortress-like than the softer Tuscan hill towns nearby. The 15th-century Rocca Paolina was built by Pope Paul III over the old Etruscan neighbourhood, and today you can walk through its underground tunnels. In the 20th century, Perugia gained fame for its university for foreigners and the Eurochocolate festival, which spills out every October. Culturally, it remains a student city with a serious art scene — look for the Galleria Nazionale dell'Umbria's collection of Renaissance panel paintings.
Il momento migliore per visitare
Guida completa di Perugia →I migliori mesi
September, June, May — warm enough for walking the medieval streets without the oppressive humidity of July-August, and crowd levels are manageable because most Italians are back at work.
Peak / Festival Surge
July and August — this is when the city fills with tourists on the way to Assisi and the Lake Trasimeno beaches. Hotel prices, including at 3-star places like Centova, can jump by 30-50%. The biggest single event is Umbria Jazz (mid-July), which draws tens of thousands and spikes accommodation costs well in advance.
Stagione di spalla
October and late April / early May are your budget sweet spots. The weather is still decent — 15-20°C — and the autumn colours around the city are stunning. Hotel rates drop by a third versus summer, and you won't queue for the escalators.
Meteo e imballaggio
Perugia sits on a hill at 493 metres, so summer evenings can cool off sharply — a light jacket or cardigan is essential even in July. Pack layers: a T-shirt for midday heat, a fleece or windproof shell for dusk, and comfortable shoes for the steep cobbled alleys.
Briefing della città — Perugia
- The main escalator connecting Piazza Partigiani to the historic centre has been undergoing periodic maintenance throughout 2026 — check if any sections are closed or replaced by a shuttle bus, which adds ten minutes to the walk.
- Umbria Jazz 2026 runs 10-19 July, so if you're arriving on 3rd July you'll catch the build-up — expect street musicians around the centre and some road closures for stage setup near the Giardini Carducci.
- The Rocca Paolina underground tunnels have extended opening hours for summer 2026, now open until 8pm instead of the usual 6pm, which gives you an extra window to explore the Etruscan-Republican layers beneath the city.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Centova Hotel, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the top floor (4th or 5th where available) at the rear of the building, away from the street. These offer the quietest sleep and, if Perugia's historic centre allows, some roof views over the hills.
Rooms to avoid
Steer clear of rooms on the first floor or those facing the main street (likely Corso Cavour or similar). These catch traffic noise early morning and evening. Also avoid rooms directly above the reception or bar area if the hotel has one, as chatting and clinking carry.
Best views
Ask for an east-facing room. That'll give you morning sun over Umbrian hills or, if you're near the Etruscan walls, glimpses of the valley. South-facing rooms may get afternoon heat and more traffic noise.
Quietest floors
Floors 3 to 5 are your best bet for quiet. Higher up means less street rumble and fewer footsteps from above.
🔊 Noise notes
Perugia's centro storico is hilly and cobbled. Street-facing rooms will hear delivery vans, scooters, and early-morning bin collection. The lift shaft may transmit noise to adjacent rooms, especially on lower floors.
Insider tips
1) If you're driving, book a spot in the downstairs garage when you reserve — street parking in Perugia is scarce and pricey. 2) Ask for a room at the end of a corridor (fewer neighbours) and request a fan if the room is south-facing — 3-star AC can struggle in July.
- 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

Most people withdraw from ATMs (bancomat) for the best rate; avoid exchange bureaux at the airport or train station — they charge terrible rates and fees.
Cards are widely accepted in supermarkets, restaurants, and shops, but small cafes and markets often prefer cash under €10; contactless works almost everywhere.
Tipping is not expected but appreciated for good service: round up the bill at cafes, leave 5-10% at restaurants if service charge isn't included, and tip €1-2 for taxi drivers or hotel porters.
Mangiare, fare shopping e viaggiare su un budget
Cheap car hire →A caffè (espresso) at a local bar costs around €1.10-1.30; standing at the counter is always cheaper than sitting at a table.
A panino or pizza al taglio from a rosticceria or bakery with a drink runs about €7-9.
A simple pasta or grilled meat main in a trattoria off the main tourist streets costs €10-14.
For cheap eats, head to the area near Corso Vannucci or Piazza IV Novembre for porchetta sandwiches, truffle panini, and pizza slices; the market at Piazza Matteotti has good budget bites.
Conad, Coop, and Lidl are the common budget supermarket chains in and around Perugia.
Via dei Priori and Via Bonazzi have affordable high-street chains like OVS, H&M and local shops; the Saturday market at Piazza Partigiani sells budget clothing and accessories.
A single bus ticket is €1.50; a day pass (biglietto giornaliero) costs €3.50 and is the cheapest way to get around. From Perugia Airport, the Minimetrò shuttle bus is €2.50, cheaper than a taxi.
Buy bus tickets at tabacchi before boarding to avoid a surcharge. Eat at bars/tavola calda for lunch instead of sit-down restaurants. Visit the free panoramic views from the Rocca Paolina instead of paying for a viewpoint.

Principali attrazioni a Perugia
💡 Go early to avoid crowds; the free part includes the crypt and some chapels, but the main treasury costs a few euros.
💡 Enter from Piazza Italia or the escalator by the bus station; it’s a cool escape on hot days and tells you a lot about Perugia’s history.
💡 Bring lunch from a nearby bakery; the view works best in late afternoon light. Free toilets in the park building.
💡 Go at dusk for the passeggiata, when locals stroll and socialise. Grab a €1.50 espresso from a bar—sitting costs more.
💡 Check the museum's website for free first Sunday of the month. Allow 1.5 hours to see everything properly.
