About Monastero San Biagio
Monastero San Biagio stands apart as a working monastery that doubles as a hotel and wedding venue, offering guests an authentic Umbrian experience without sacrificing modern hospitality.
Built into the hillside of Nocera Umbra, the property maintains its medieval character while providing 16 rooms across 36 beds, making it rare among Italian destination venues for on-site accommodation.
Ceremonies happen in the grounds or nearby churches, with receptions held in the monastery's 150-seat restaurant, a space that functions as both dining hall and weather contingency.

Getting married at San Biagio was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. Everything, literally everything, was above and beyond our expectations. Incredible value for money.
