Hotel Fortuna

Perugia


Behind a weathered stone facade draped in ivy, this historic three-star hotel hides 14th-century walls and secrets like its former past as a love motel. Past the welcoming front desk, you'll find original frescoes on the 3rd floor, Murano chandeliers in the breakfast room and classic decor that instils a sense of place in its 52 guest rooms.

All hallways – each featuring display cases of lucky keepsakes sent from guests from around the world – lead to the 5th-floor rooftop terrace with stunning views over the surrounding countryside.
