We have a special offer with La Gustea Guesthouse: 65 euros per person plus a 2 euros tax per person daily. Double occupancy. Includes breakfast.

The hotel is a 15 minute walk to the theater, rehearsal spaces, and historic center and close to restaurants, laundry, and more. Shuttle service is available for participants twice a day.

Alternate Accommodations:

Ai Lecci in Centro - a boutique hotel with a very limited number of rooms, A/C and a pool in the center of town. Excellent location!

Some participants prefer staying at the Hotel Santa Chiara, which is close to the program’s locations (5 minute walk) and has a very small number of rooms available in their 16th century former convent. Very historic and stunning location, but large windows instead of air-conditioning. Information on booking here: https://www.conventosantachiara.it/ NOTE: it is unclear if Santa Chiara is taking new reservations for 2025.

Claves Claustri apartments - rooms steps from the center of town. Very convenient, no A/C, but fans provided.

The Parco delle Piscine is a kind of glamping campsite! It rents mobile homes and includes a gorgeous pool and other facilities: https://parcodellepiscine.it/

Airbnb/VRBO: If you decide to look for your own apartment on Airbnb, Booking.com or VRBO and don’t want to have to rent a car, we suggest searching for any place in the "historic center" of Sarteano! You will be rehearsing mostly near the Teatro Comunale - Nuova Accademia degli Arrischianti, here: Piazza XXIV Giugno, 25, 53047 Sarteano SI, Italy. You can view this location on Google maps to get a good idea of the proximity to your potential apartment!
