Location & what to see

Platani Hotel is located in the heart of the historic centre of Bolsena, a few steps from Monaldeschi Castle and the streets of the medieval village overlooking the largest volcanic lake in Europe. The area is pedestrian and lively, with restaurants, bars and shops close at hand: the Wine Class restaurant is just 50 metres away, while the Santa Cristina trattoria is at the same distance.

From the centre of Bolsena, Lake Bolsena can be reached on foot in a few minutes, while the Sanctuary of Santa Cristina is about 200 metres away. For those travelling by train, the reference station is Montefiascone, about 14 km away, from which you can continue towards Viterbo or Rome. The nearest airport is Umbria – Perugia San Francesco d’Assisi, about 65 km away. By car, Bolsena is conveniently connected to the Via Cassia and is a short distance from Montefiascone, with its Palazzo dei Papi and Torre del Moro, both of which can be visited on a half-day trip.

In summer the lake is the main attraction: suitable for swimming, water sports and walks along the lakeside promenade, in addition to the pool at Hotel Holiday available to guests 700 metres away. In cooler months, Bolsena is well suited to cycling and hiking among the vineyards of the Tuscia, visits to local wineries and exploring nearby villages such as Montefiascone and Viterbo, the latter known for its thermal baths and well-preserved medieval historic centre.

Monaldeschi Castle — medieval fortress in the heart of Bolsena, a few steps from the hotel 200 m
