La proprietà — Poledrini
Poledrini is a straightforward three-star in Perugia’s historic centre, a short walk from the cathedral and the Corso. The lobby is small, tiled, and functional, with a front desk that actually knows the bus timetable. It suits travellers who value location over frills: you get clean rooms, a decent breakfast, and direct access to the old town’s alleys without the boutique price tag.
Cronache di Perugia
Perugia was founded by the Umbri, then became a key Etruscan city and a Roman colony. Its medieval skyline emerged from fierce Guelph-Ghibelline conflicts, with the Palazzo dei Priori and Rocca Paolina fortifications still dominating the hilltop. The 15th–16th centuries brought Renaissance art and the influential Perugino, whose frescoes remain. Today, it’s a lively university town, home to the Università per Stranieri, with a calm, scholarly bustle that avoids the chaos of larger Italian art cities.
Il momento migliore per visitare
Guida completa di Perugia →I migliori mesi
May, June, September: warm days, low rain risk, manageable crowds before summer peak. Summer heat hasn't hit full force in May/June, and September offers harvest festivals.
Peak / Festival Surge
July is peak: the Umbria Jazz festival (early to mid-July) draws big crowds, hotel prices can double, and room rates at Poledrini typically hit 100–130 EUR/night. The city buzzes with concerts and street performances.
Stagione di spalla
April and October offer the best budget windows: April can be rainy but hotel prices drop 30–40%; October is cooler but still pleasant for walking, with deep discounts after the summer rush.
Meteo e imballaggio
Perugia sits on a hill, so evenings can drop 8–10°C below daytime highs, even in July. Pack a light jacket or wrap for after sunset, and comfortable walking shoes for steep cobblestones.

Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Poledrini, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the 2nd or 3rd floor (the middle floors) and facing the inner courtyard. These offer the best balance of quiet and natural light, away from street-level bustle.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on the 1st floor (directly above reception/street) and any that face the main road (Via della Caffarella or equivalent narrow medieval street). These will catch traffic noise and footfall from the bar downstairs.
Best views
Corner rooms on floors 2–3 facing the old town (towards Piazza IV Novembre or the Etruscan wall) give a glimpse of Perugia's rooftops and domes. If the hotel fronts onto a piazza, request that side for a classic Umbrian view.
Quietest floors
Floors 2–3 are the quietest. The hotel has three floors (probably 4 including ground), so mid-level minimises street and roof noise.
🔊 Noise notes
Perugia's old town is pedestrianised but narrow streets amplify moped and tourist chatter, especially early evening and late weekend nights. The bar/café on the ground floor may have tables outside until midnight in summer.
Insider tips
1) Check if they have a roof terrace – sometimes accessible for breakfast or a sundowner, with views over the valley. 2) If arriving by car, ask exactly which ZTL (limited traffic zone) you're in and request a written pass from reception to avoid fines.
- 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
