SILENCE HOTEL CASA MANCIA - Foligno

Well-run hotel; attentive staff, simple but clean and well-maintained amenities; superb location.

Excellent hospitality. I recommend this hotel for anyone staying in Assisi.

My wife and I stopped into Assisi for a 24-hour stay while honeymooning in Rome. The hotel is about a 5-minute (UPHILL) walk from the Giovanni Paolo II parking lot/bus stop. Assisi is difficult to get around in with large luggage, there's just no getting around that. The hotel staff was friendly and spoke English well - a plus since we didn't learn much Italian before we left. The wireless internet service was provided via a print-out password you receive upon arrival. It doesn't work in your room, only in the hotel lobby. However, it is quite fast when you're in the lobby. We hiked about ten minutes to get to St. Clare's (UPHILL), and about 7 minutes to St. Francis's (mostly level or DOWNHILL). Our room had a breathtaking view of the Medieval city and the Umbrian plain. Breakfast was typical Italian fare - ham and cheese, croissants and rolls, cappuccino and coffee, juices and sweet breads. It's enough to get you through the day. We would definitely stay here again if we ever make it back to Assisi.

We loved the charm of this place and the location within the city center was perfect. Breakfast was nice, room was large, staff was very helpful and nice. We will definitely stay here again.

I really enjoyed the hotel. It is located right at the Temple Minerva, and in the center of Assisi. We had two hostesses, one Italian and one of Japanese heritage. They gave us a discount card for Assisi, and they also lent us tour book of Assisi for our stay. This saved us 8 euros from buying our own, and really helped us understand what we were seeing. They both were great, kind and met our needs. The hotel has wifi on the lobby. If you are able to get one of the two rooms on the lobby level, the wifi carries into the room. The breakfast was traditionally Italian. The cappuccino or espresso was prepared to order, and at 3:00 p.m. they had Tea time, but we did not take part in this during the stay. It is important to note that our hotel is above the square, and takes about 60+ steps to get to. So, if you have mobility issues, this will be a big problem, and you need to pack light, because I was sucking wind pretty good after hauling my bag up the steps.
