Relais Ducale

Umbria


Set in a converted annex of the Palazzo Ducale, this elegant hideaway effortlessly mirrors Gubbio's medieval look with exposed stone walls and rooms fitted with wood floors and antique furnishings; one even has a barrel-vaulted stone ceiling. Its location is perfect for the centro storico (historic centre), though it's something of an uphill hike to get here,

Further standouts include a flowery terrace overlooking Piazza della Signoria and a stone-walled garden.
