Hotels:
Hotel Umbria, Via Boncambi 37
Very central and a few minutes walking distance from the City Hall. Average price. Breakfast is not included but by paying some extra you can have a breakfast including coffee/cappuccino + croissant + juice.
Hotel Anna, Via dei Priori 48

Very few rooms available, for which you have to contact directly the hotel. A buffet breakfast is included. This is the closest one to the City Hall, and there is a small descent to get there. Averagely priced. The rooms are very old-style!
