Hotel Fontebella
This is one of the nicer hotels I've stayed at in Assisi. The location wasn't on the main street but it was pretty accessible from both direction. The staff was extremely nice and professional. I would stay here again.

Hotel Monastero Sant'Andrea
Pleasant stay at a unique hotel ( it is a monastery). The location is ideal since it is across St Francis church. Rooms are clean and quiet. The terrace offers a fantastic view of the town and encourages contemplation.
