About the Casa Papa Giovanni:

Casa Papa Giovanni provides beautifully presented rooms and spaces in an historic and stunning location. Set within the walls of Assisi, it is only a short walk from the major city attractions, such as Saint Francis Basilica. A rooftop garden is a highlight for guests looking to unwind after a long day of sightseeing.

This venue lies between the World Heritage listed Basilica di San Francesco d’Assisi and Basilica di Santa Chiara. The Saint Francis Basilica was built after Saint Francis’ canonization in 1228. It was completed in 1253 and the lower church hosts frescoes by renowned late-medieval artists Cimabue and Giotto. In the upper church there are frescoes of scenes in the life of Saint Francis previously ascribed to Giotto and now thought to be by artists of the circle of Pietro Cavallini of Rome. The Basilica was restored after being badly damaged in 1997 when an earthquake hit the town.
