Hotel Bonazzi - Perugia, Italy 

We recently stayed at Hotel Bonazzi for 3 nights during a month-long tour around Italy. We had a fantastic stay - the owners are a husband and wife team (Paulo, the husband speaks great English and has a fondness for Australians and Formula 1) who were really friendly and helpful. The breakfast served each day in the small, cozy reception area was outstanding. Breakfast and coffee is served to your table, (cappucino available), along with croissants, fresh rolls, jams and cheese, along with yoghurt and cereal if you wish, and fantastic juice. Much more personal and nicer than the all-in buffet-style feeding troughs that larger hotels offer. The room was a great size (by European standards), exceptionally clean and quiet. Our one small discomfort was that whilst there was airconditioning, it is not individually set in each room, so was a little warmer than we were expecting. The location was fantastic, just a short (2 minute) stroll from the main piazza up inside central Perugia (inside the city walls on top of the hill). We would definitely recommend staying up there, rather than down the hill out of Perugia. On the whole, the experience was terrific and we would stay there again.
