You will enjoy spa waters and discover still unknown treasures;

our hotel, Art Studio Residenza d’epoca is located in the historic center of Bolsena. We are at walking distance from the Collegiate Church of Santa Cristina, a Romanesque basilica of the XI century with Renaissance façade and 14th century mullioned bell tower, mostly famous for the Chapel of the Eucharistic Miracle, as well as for the frescoes of the XIV century and the terracotta works by Benedetto Buglioni.

The Rocca Monaldeschi, an ancient castle built between the XIII and XIV centuries by Orvieto inhabitants, with a square plan equipped with four towers, today hosts the Territorial Museum of the Lake of Bolsena.

Noteworthy are the walks and excursions around our lake, the largest volcanic lake in Europe, with its two enchanting islands, the Martana and the Bisentina. Bike rides, boat tours and even flights with small planes and spa stays are possible both in Viterbo and in the Val d'Orcia a few kilometers from Bolsena.  

Bolsena is traditionally the Town of the Eucharistic Mystery; but it is also universally known as the Town of Hydrangeas, for its flowery collections in gardens and urban avenues.
