Hotel Vannucci introduction
Hotel Vannucci occupies a strikingly beautiful 19th century villa situated on Umbria's border with Tuscany in Città della Pieve, a hill top town perched some 500 meters above sea level and overlooking Lake Trasimeno and the Chiana valley.
Hotel Vannucci has a total of 30 bedrooms and suites each of which has been individually decorated with hand crafted furniture, rich fabrics, wrought iron and numerous pieces of artwork. A number of rooms have the added appeal of a balcony overlooking the hotel's internal courtyard or garden. Recent restoration and renovation work has allowed for the upgrading of in-room facilities, which now include high-speed internet access.
The hotel's elegant "Zafferano" restaurant serves imaginative and delicious variations on traditional Umbrian and Tuscan cuisine. The menu is complemented by an impressive selection of Italian wines housed in Hotel Vannucci's brick-vaulted cellar. For less formal dining, the Pizzeria "Pievese" offers an extensive menu of pizzas baked in the traditional wood-burning oven as well as a number of regional dishes. The "Bar Trillo" provides a casual venue in which to meet friends and enjoy a cocktail, coffee, or light snack.
For those wishing to maintain their exercise routine whilst on holiday, the Hotel Vannucci has installed a superb fitness centre with the latest cardio and weight-training equipment. A Jacuzzi and sauna are located adjacent to the gym. Hotel Vannucci's new swimming pool, offers a peaceful area for relaxation and sun-bathing within the hotel's private walled gardens.
