Santa Maria degli Ancillotti  

On the green outskirts of Assisi, set in four hectares of parkland and hedged gardens. A peaceful, boutique hotel a short drive from Basilica San Francesco di Assisi and about 6 km from the city center — near Assisi Retreat Hermitage and Sant’Egidio Airport (≈8.5 km).

Housed in buildings dating to 1179, this family-run boutique hotel offers seven spacious suites renovated in 2014 for a modern-meets-ancient vibe. Suites feature air-conditioning, free minibar, LCD/40-inch TVs, Frette Italian sheets and down comforters, rainfall showers, safes, kettles and small outdoor seating areas — ideal for couples seeking privacy and quiet.

Relax in a seasonal outdoor pool (closed Oct 1–Apr 30), soak up the solarium and stroll the terraces and gardens. There’s a poolside bar, table-tennis/ping-pong, a library and a chapel on site — plus tour/ticket assistance and wedding services. Pet-friendly and set-up for peaceful, park-side stays; expect garden views and casual alfresco moments.

Complimentary Wi‑Fi, express check-in, multilingual staff and concierge services keep things simple. Laundry/dry-cleaning, luggage storage, free self-parking and transfer options are available — airport shuttle on request (may incur a surcharge) and train-station pick-up also offered.

S. Maria degli Ancillotti serves Italian cuisine at a poolside restaurant with garden views and alfresco seating. A coffee shop/café and pool bar round out the options, and a complimentary full breakfast is served daily (8:00–9:30 AM).
