Ancient History Surround
L'Hotel In Pietra is set in a converted 13th-century monastery in the Sasso Barisano district. The hotel is located in the maze-like Sassi, near the medieval frescoed rupestrian churches and prehistoric caves.

The hotel is a five-minute walk to the newer part of town and the great cathedral that towers over the old citadel. Nearby landmarks include Chiesa di Santa Lucia e Sant'Agata alla Fontana (0.3 km), Palombaro Lungo (0.5 km), and the Church of San Pietro Caveoso (0.5 km).
