01 · In a sentence

Relais Metelli in Foligno, open JuneSeptember.

Relais Metelli occupies a restored medieval palazzo in Foligno's historic center, its honey-colored stone façade overlooking the Piazza San Feliciano and the gentle slopes of Umbria beyond.

This 4-star hotel transforms 16th-century architecture into an intimate wedding setting, where vaulted ceilings and original frescoes create rooms steeped in Renaissance character.

The venue's position at the heart of Umbria's wine country positions guests within walking distance of centuries-old piazzas, while countryside views stretch toward the distant Sibillini Mountains.

The rooms are beautiful, very stylish. The staff are tremendously helpful and make your stay at the hotel even more pleasant. The hotel is quite centrally located near shops, bars and restaurants but not so close that you are bothered by noise. A recommended stay.
