Palazzo Seneca
Norcia, Italy
Palazzo Seneca is a lovely Relais & Châteaux hotel that is the true essence of Umbrian hospitality. Owned by the impeccable Bianconi family, Palazzo Seneca is a warm and inviting grand “home” with just 24 rooms from which to visit this very special part of Umbria.
Palazzo Seneca is set in the charming and medieval walled city of Norcia, and along with the surrounding area, it is a destination well known for the natural beauty of its Sibilini Mountains, for its fascinating history and traditions, and for its many local delicacies --- including black truffles, prosciutti and salumi, lentils and more. The incredibly gracious team at Palazzo Seneca have made it easy to envision and book a visit to this area by taking the time to curate a variety of compelling experiences for their guests, but the truffle hunting excursion, available all year long, in particular is one that cannot be missed.
The Bianconi Family
Owners
“My family and I, fifth generation hoteliers, have a strong tradition of hospitality in our very special corner of Umbria. Here, the smiles are real, our connection to our land and traditions deeply rooted and our passion to welcome guests as palpable as the scent of our world famous truffles. More than ever, we look forward to welcoming your clients and opening their eyes to our special ‘slice of heaven’.”
