Eight hundred years since the death of St. Francis.
St. Francis died in Assisi on 3 October 1226, at the Porziuncola. 2026 therefore marks the eighth centenary of his death — an occasion the city marks with particular intensity, with religious celebrations, cultural initiatives and a greater-than-usual flow of pilgrims and visitors.
For the official programme of celebrations — liturgies, events, special openings — the most reliable reference remains the channels of the Basilica of St. Francis and the Diocese of Assisi: it's an important year for the city, and information changes as dates approach, so it's best to check directly there rather than rely on third parties.
What we can offer is simpler: we're minutes from the Basilica, at a time when finding accommodation in Assisi — especially near the centre, in a year of high demand — may not be a given.
Organic breakfast included for those who book directly through the official site.
Valid on every direct booking, not just during the celebrations — a way of saying thank you to those who choose to write to us directly instead of going through a middleman.
Book ahead if you're visiting during this period.
A year of celebrations brings more visitors than usual to Assisi, and availability during peak periods runs out sooner. If you already have dates in mind, it's best to check early — we reply directly, with no intermediaries, and tell you right away what's still available.
