Family Hotels with Kids' Club in Perugia

A kids' club gives children a place of their own and parents some free time, and three Perugia hotels list one. They differ in setting: Chocohotel is a chocolate-themed hotel about 1 km from the station and historic centre, Hotel Priori Secret Garden is a two-minute walk from the centre and Relais dell'Olmo is a country estate with vineyards. I would confirm club hours and ages before you book.

Chocohotel is the most distinctive of the three: a chocolate-themed hotel with a kids' club, a seasonal rooftop pool, a spa-wellness area, family suites and a pet-friendly policy. It sits about 1 km from Perugia Train Station and the historic centre, offers free indoor parking and free Wi-Fi, and has spacious air-conditioned rooms with satellite TV. Guests receive a welcome chocolate and can join tastings. It scores 8.8 from more than 5,600 reviews, by far the most on this page, which makes it a dependable choice. The combination of a kids' club and a spa on site means parents can take turns relaxing while the other stays with the children.

Hotel Priori Secret Garden is a four-star hotel in Perugia offering air-conditioned rooms with private bathrooms and free WiFi, a kids' club, spa and wellness facilities and family suites. Guests can also use a fitness centre, a terrace and a bar, and rent bikes, all within a two-minute walk of the city centre. It scores 8.9 from more than 1,500 reviews. It suits families who want to walk to the sights while still having a club and spa within the hotel for quieter moments. The hotel also lists air-conditioned rooms with private bathrooms, which is a comfort in the Umbrian summer.

Relais dell'Olmo is a four-star country estate near Perugia, a renovated 16th-century villa with comfortable, classically furnished rooms, a swimming pool, a kids' club, spa and wellness facilities and family suites. Guests can rent bikes and enjoy Umbrian cooking, surrounded by green hills and private vineyards. It scores 8.9 from 711 reviews. It suits families who prefer a countryside base and are comfortable driving into Perugia for sightseeing, rather than staying within walking distance of the old town. The estate setting suits slow mornings by the pool and evenings of local food, with hills as the backdrop for children who like to be outdoors.

All three hotels list a kids' club and family suites, so the choice rests on setting rather than facilities: a playful city hotel, a central four-star or a country villa. Guest scores are close, from 8.8 to 8.9, so the real differences are location, the pool and the style of stay. I would ask each hotel about the club's ages, hours and cost, and confirm suite layouts before you book. Because families differ, I would also ask whether the clubs run all year or only in school holidays, and whether a reservation is needed.
