Abbazia Collemedio Resort & Spa

Perched on a hillside in the quiet village of Collepepe, Abbazia dei Collemedio offers a truly distinctive stay in a former Franciscan monastery, with sweeping views over the surrounding landscape.

The property is steeped in history, with every corner reflecting its past—including the cave where monks once retreated in prayer. Each room is equipped with modern comforts like air conditioning, a flat-screen TV, and a minibar, while the private bathrooms include a hairdryer and complimentary toiletries.

Guests can make the most of the resort’s extensive facilities, which include a swimming pool, a full-service spa, a fitness center, and tennis courts.

Mornings begin with a hearty buffet breakfast, and after exploring the area, you can unwind with afternoon tea. Evenings bring dinner in refined dining spaces, one of which was originally the monks’ chapel.

The hotel sits 28 km from Perugia, with Assisi about a 40-minute drive away. For couples, the location is a particular highlight, earning a 9.0 rating for two-person getaways.
