Hotel Tiferno, which is one of the oldest in Umbria (1895), has been completely restored. It is located in a small square in the historic centre of the hospitable Citta di Castello, in a XIth Century palace that was once the monastery of the church of St. Francis, which is located nearby. Tiferno was the Roman name of the town, and the hotel has preserved the original architecture of this former convent, with its ribbed vaults and large chimneys, but has also acquired a small collection of paintings by Alberto Burri, whose work is also to be seen in the museum dedicated to him. The modern rooms (38 units) are functional and very comfortable. This sober and elegant establishment is a good stopping point for a tour of Umbria. There is a good restaurant at the hotel, but if you wish to dine in town "Amici miei" restaurant is a recommended choice which should not be missed.
