Palazzo Seneca

Top choice in Umbria


Live like the local nobility at this refined family-run hotel, one of the few still operating in Norcia's historic centre. Its spacious rooms are a picture of rustic-chic styling, seamlessly melding four-poster beds and marble bathrooms with stone walls and oak wood floors. The public areas exude class, with leather armchairs set around a fireplace and artfully arranged coffee-table books.

To really get the most out of the place, go for a soothing massage in the subterranean spa and a gourmet meal at the hotel's Michelin-starred restaurant, Vespasia. See the website for special themed packages, covering everything from cookery classes to truffle hunting.
