The Antico Sipario Boutique Hotel Signature Collection, is the Bwh Group’s new Italia entry.
The hotel is on the border of Umbria and Tuscany
The hotel owes its name (sipario means stage curtain in Italian) to the discovery during renovations of the stage curtain of the small theatre that was once in the building. It is in the historic centre of Paciano, a medieval village in the Lake Trasimeno area in the province of Perugia, on the border between Umbria and Tuscany.
A garden, a cloister and a conference room
The eight Superior and Deluxe rooms and the communal areas are therefore a tribute to the building’s artistic tradition with the the concepts of theatre and performance declined in all their expressions with references to art, opera and great personalities from the history of the theatre. The Antico Sipario also has a garden, a cloister, a conference room converted from the old theatre, while the hall has been conceived as an open space for meeting and sharing.
A meeting room for up to 40 people
The meeting room accommodates up to 40 people, has excellent acoustics and is ideal for business meetings, training courses and other private events. The hotel also has a long tradition of organizing weddings and there is a playroom for young guests. From the hotel it is only a 15-minute drive to Castiglione del Lago on Lake Trasimeno, and less than 50 minutes to Perugia, Orvieto, Montepulciano and Cortona, while Rome and Florence can be reached in less than two hours. 
A shop with local specialties and wines
The shop has a selection of local products such as honey, jams, preserves, home-produced Trasimeno wines and extra virgin olive oil, as well as a line of 100% bodycare organic cosmetics. There is also a Bookcrossing library corner and an area where children can colour, draw, play with puzzles and enjoy reading.
