Park Hotel Ai Cappuccini

Set within a spacious park of centuries-old trees and a picturesque olive grove, the former 17th-century Capuchin monastery sits in perfect harmony with its surroundings. Historic stonework, modern architecture and contemporary art come together to create a stylish retreat where tranquillity and culture meet. Generous shared spaces, high-quality amenities and a keen eye for aesthetics shape the extensive hotel complex. Just a few steps from Gubbio’s medieval town centre, the peaceful seclusion of monastic life blends with the ease of modern comfort. Park Hotel Ai Cappuccini is committed to environmental responsibility, conserving resources and supporting regional ties, and has been awarded the DCA sustainability certification.

Set among the green hills of Umbria, Park Hotel Ai Cappuccini combines historic charm with a peaceful setting close to nature. Just a few minutes’ walk from Gubbio’s medieval town centre, the hotel is an ideal base for cultural discoveries. The surrounding countryside invites you to enjoy walks, cycle rides and leisurely strolls with panoramic views.

Inspired by rural culture and the rhythms of nature, regional specialities such as truffles, mushrooms, cheese, olive oil, honey and fine wines are given a creative interpretation. At the elegant Nicolao restaurant, traditional Umbrian cuisine meets a lighter, contemporary touch. Guests start the day with a varied breakfast buffet and enjoy à la carte dishes or refined three-course menus in the evening, always accompanied by a selection of local wines. The warm atmosphere of the historic dining rooms invites you to linger. A special highlight is the hotel’s own wine cellar, La Cisterna, where wine tastings take place in an old cistern once used by the Capuchin monks. Whether you choose an aperitif at the bar or a digestif to round off the evening, good food and drink take centre stage.
