B&B La Vela is a bed and breakfast in Rieti, on Via Lazio, with views of the surrounding mountains and a well-kept garden to relax in between the day’s activities. The property offers guests a common lounge, a panoramic terrace and free private parking, as well as WiFi throughout all areas.
The rooms, all with private bathroom and independent entrance, are designed for stays as a couple or in small groups: they feature a sitting area, flat-screen TV, refrigerator, microwave and coffee machine, ensuring a certain level of self-sufficiency even during the shortest stay. A buffet breakfast is served in the morning.
The location makes it possible to reach the bars and restaurants of Rieti’s historic centre on foot, while the area’s main natural attractions, such as Lake Piediluco and the Marmore Falls, are just a few kilometres away by car. A suitable choice for those visiting Sabina or southern Umbria looking for a quiet base with parking included.
The three room types at B&B La Vela share the same basic layout and amenities: private bathroom with shower, toiletries, bidet, flat-screen TV, sitting area, refrigerator, microwave and coffee machine, as well as an independent entrance that ensures privacy for guests. All rooms overlook the garden and the surrounding mountains and have access to a shared terrace, a detail that makes the stay more pleasant even in the warmer months.
What sets them apart is size and capacity: the Double Room with Private Bathroom, at 20 sqm, is designed for two people, while the Triple Room with Private Bathroom, the largest at 22 sqm, adds a single bed and accommodates up to three guests, making it the best choice for small groups or families. The Large Double Room, despite its name, is the most compact at 17 sqm and still remains a valid option for those looking for a cosy space for two.
