Hotel Ideale

This quiet family run hotel stole our heart while in Assisi. Very welcoming and the best view you could ask for from their very large garden terrace overlooking the Umbrian countryside. Hearty breakfast served each morning to easily hold you over until lunch. The rooms are simple but comfortable and ours had a balcony overlooking Assisi and the countryside. I highly recommend this quaint family run gem!

Rooms were small and bathroom even smaller. They did a good enough job at keeping the rooms clean. The location and views are phenomenal. Besides that the stay there was terrible. Started off about 2 weeks before our trip. The manager kept bombarding the family with calls about switching a room. We booked the apartment and the manager kept calling trying to get us to switch it stating that “it was 200 meters away and didn’t include breakfast”. Finally the family got annoyed by the constant calls and allowed the switch. Big mistake. They charged 25 extra euro a day for the breakfast. 95% of which my wife couldn’t eat due to a gluten allergy. Also the breakfast was most certainly not worth 25 euro. You could go into town and get a similar breakfast for less than 10-15 euro. Then when we went to checkout they said we still owed 500+ euro. After getting a complete breakdown of the costs it actually came out to 100-110 extra. Not sure where the 500+ came from. The manager that checked us in was rude and yelling, and was just as rude to the travel agent that had to email back and forth with him. She even offered to pay the extra fees out of her own pocket and said that she would never recommend the hotel to her clients again. Overall a very lackluster stay. The town was beautiful, the food in Assisi was excellent and while the views were beautiful at the hotel, the staff and service were not. If I were other Americans planning a trip to Assisi, I would stay away from this hotel. Also following up with other reports/reviews of money being stolen out of the room, we didn’t get any money or anything stolen but definitely noticed that our bags had been rummaged through. Stay here at your own risk.

Beautiful boutique hotel in fantastic location. This hotel had amazing views, super clean, good value for money fantastic customer service and enabled my wife and I time to really relax in between Florence and Rome for 4 nights. Hard to fault this hotel. We will stay at this hotel again.
