 The relationship between the city and Sangallo Palace continues from the hotel façade where its columns and rose windows recall the exteriors of churches and palaces throughout Perugia. The large oval surroundings of the entrance bring to mind the Italian city square, the place instinctively predestinated for socialising. Recalling the "Collegio della Mercanzia", the main hall is adorned with the symbols from the Renaissance that evoke that very period. In the main hall your glances can catch fragments from the past in Perugia, these periods can be noted in the columns and wood works.
Here, it is possible to visit with grat plesure a coffe bar and indulge in conversation. Also, the lamps seen in a brass and copper with touches of crystal are inspired by the plan of the "ideal city" that Antonio Sangallo designed together with others. Waiting for the elevator one takes in the architectural delights that have characterized the main Monuments of Perugia from 1500 to 1700. Along the stairs that lead to the restaurant, passing through the reading room, with only a glance one can catch the inspirations from the frames, columns and woodwork. These are the principle motives that highlighted the historical period of Perugia, from the Etruscan to the Roman to the Medieval. |
