Hotel Signa

Perugia


Slip down an alley off Corso Cavour to reach Signa, one of Perugia's best budget picks. The petite rooms are simple, bright and well kept, and many have balconies with cracking views of the city and countryside. Rooms at the cheaper end of the scale forgo minibars and air-con. The friendly owner, Mario, hands out maps and tips freely.

Breakfast costs an extra €7.
