Hotel Iris
By the Top3Hotels editorial team. Based on Booking.com guest scores and reviews, location data and reference prices. We did not stay at this hotel. Updated 2026-10-24.
Yes, if you want the cheapest of our three Perugia picks, close to the escalators up to the historic centre and the bus station, and you can live with a simple two-star room. Skip it if you want a proper breakfast or extra comforts, because guests say breakfast is often just coffee and pastries.

This is our Budget pick in Perugia. It suits travellers on a tight budget, people arriving by bus and anyone who wants to reach the historic centre on foot without paying old-town prices. Family rooms, free Wi-Fi, a garden and a terrace are listed, and the listing is tagged for pets.
Skip it if breakfast matters, or if you expect more than two-star comfort. Air conditioning is not listed in our data, so check it if you travel in warm months.
Location and getting around
The address is Via Marconi 37. Guests rate the location 9.6 out of 10 and say the hotel is steps from the escalators to the historic centre and a short walk from the bus station.
By straight-line estimate, Palazzo dei Priori is 0.5 km away (about 6 minutes on foot), and Perugia Cathedral and Fontana Maggiore are each 0.6 km away (about 8 minutes). Real routes are longer than straight lines, so allow extra time.
What guests say
Across 1,254 reviews the average is 8.4 out of 10, joint fifth of the 7 eligible properties we compared. Guests like the position near the escalators and the staff, described as friendly and helpful with useful local recommendations.
Breakfast is the weak spot. It is served on a terrace that guests call scenic, but the selection is often limited to coffee and pastries.
