Gubbio is gorgeous - lots to see and do.

Pros: Very friendly and helpful staff. Great location. Lovely garden.

Cons: As with all medieval towns in Italy parking is a distance away but there are shuttle buses. Lots of car parks in the new town.

good location, but old property

Pros: Good Location in the Old Town, nice property as located in the old Palace, but lot of stairs to go up and down so you need to travel with limited luggage

Cons: accessibility by car was not appropriate as the hotel is located in the old town, parking was far by 10 minutes walk, breakfast was limited

The Relais Ducale is a lovely hotel in the fantastic hill town of Gubbio.

Pros: Relais Ducale Our bags were taken to our room (to our surprise) via stairs and elevator. Our room was spacious, always warm & looked out at the hotels back garden. We had a comfortable bed, plenty of storage & a basic bath. We were also provided with history of the local area. The staff was a well oiled team, helpful and accommodating. The hotels entrance was across from Palazzo dei Consoli & Piazza Grande. Along the street we found many ceramic artists shops, featuring hand painted majolica, to our delight! Near by you can take an elevator to Cattedrale dei Santi Mariano e Giacomo. Gubbio is definitely a serious hill town and we stayed at the very top of it. We were directed by the hotel to park at the Funivia Parcheggio lower level and it was free! Later that day we took the very unique Funivia Colle Eletto up the hill to the Basilica of Saint Ubaldo. Highly recommended! Another hotel detail is that it was were the TV series Don Matteo was filmed for Italian TVs Rai Uno. The Hotel has the chess table set up outside the hotel's entrance with Don Matteo's beret and the police inspector's hat. Don Matteo (English: Father Matthew) is an Italian television series that has been airing on Rai 1, Italian national television's first channel, since 2000. The protagonist of the series is Father Matteo (portrayed by Terence Hill), a Catholic priest in a parish of the town of Gubbio, Perugia. He is also known for his unrivaled talent in investigating local crime stories. Father Matteo is a wise and respected person who really manages to understand people's problems, and always appears to be willing to help. Thanks to his charm and positivity, he often helps criminals on their way to redemption and he always convinces them to confess their crimes and to accept their responsibilities.

Our stay was in winter and outside it was cold and wet . But once we stepped inside the hotel we were warm and welcome .

Pros: Everything in this hotel is wonderful - beautiful room well heated and great bed. Staff are friendly and helpful and there is a warm atmosphere throughout.

Cons: There is nothing to dislike . We were completely happy with our stay.

Always a sentimental pleasure to stay at the Relais Ducale

Pros: I love the Relais Ducale - obviously its location in Gubbio is unbeatable, especially the rooms like mine with sweeping views of the old city. The rooms are a bit old fashioned but comfortable and attractive nonetheless. The staff are always charming and helpful. The building is fascinating with its multiple gardens on multiple levels. The connections to a famous Italian TV detective series, which was at one time filmed around here, are amusing. There is some bar food, and no restaurant, but the hotel has two sister restaurants not far away, both brilliant, albeit fairly expensive. Breakfast on the square outside in summer is a treat like no other; but the inside breakfast room is fine & characterful too. Breakfast itself is good Italian basic, no frills but fine.

Cons: Getting to the hotel in a car can be very tricky especially on market days when many streets are blocked off. If you can't find the way, be prepared to head for the car park at the funicular station instead. You can park in the lower level here for free as a hotel guest - just give the receptionist your vehicle registration number. You will probably have to walk your luggage along cobbled streets (a few slight hills) for about 10-20 minutes to the hotel. There is sometimes a shuttle bus though from the archway near the car park. Read the instructions carefully that the hotel will send you via Booking.com, just in case.

great location in the center of Gubbio

Pros: Very nice place, comfortable, quiet, great location though tough to find with a car. Breakfast was very good and we had lunch outside one day and it was delicious as well. You enter through the bar, drop your bags off, park the car and then make your way upstairs to the lobby. Our bags were in our room which was a nice touch. We would stay there again.

Cons: Really nothing.

Lovely experience

Pros: Just about everything!
