Why we shortlisted Sangallo Palace
The hotel’s official contact and FAQ pages place it beside Rocca Paolina, close to Piazza Partigiani and central escalators. They explain that the entrance on Via Luigi Masi is outside the active restricted-traffic section, although parking conditions and fees need checking for your dates. The hotel also advertises an indoor heated pool.
Standout feature: Near Piazza Partigiani, city escalators and the Rocca Paolina route.
Who should stay here?
Best for: First-time visitors, practical city breaks and travelers who need convenient city-center access.
Think twice if: Its edge-of-center position differs from staying among the lanes around Piazza IV Novembre.

Where Hotel Sangallo Palace is, and why the location matters
Hotel Sangallo Palace stands at Via L. Masi 9, just below Perugia’s hilltop old town, in a building that dates from 1995 and was renovated in 2025. The appeal is position: Rocca Paolina and Corso Vannucci are each about a 3-minute walk as listed, and the public escalators that climb through the fortress are the classic way to reach the top of the city on foot.
Because it sits at the edge of the center rather than inside the pedestrian core, it is one of the easier central hotels to reach by car, with covered on-site parking at €20 per day (listed October 2026). With 100 rooms over six floors, an indoor pool, a fitness center and the Il Sangallo restaurant, it works as a full-service four-star base rather than a small historic palazzo (mansion).
Getting there
- From Perugia Airport (PEG): Sant’Egidio is about a 21-minute drive as listed.
- By train: Perugia Station is about an 18-minute walk as listed, or a short taxi ride.
- By MiniMetrò: the Pincetto station is about a 7-minute walk, Cupa about 11 minutes.
- By car: covered self-parking on site at €20 per day (listed October 2026), with in and out privileges.
