Villa Ciconia is located in Umbria, at Orvieto's door, about 2 Kms away from Orvieto's exit on the Rome-Florence A1 motorway. The Hotel is in a XVIth century elegant villa, surrounded by a large park with centuries-old trees, just on Chiani River and Carcaione Torrent confluence.
The villa construction dates back to an enlargement of a tower, named " La Turchinetta " ordered by Vincenzo Butius to Ippolito Scalza. The Villa, designed according to a rectangular plan, was realised in such a way that a deviation of the Carcaione torrent would get under one of the three arches that were sustaining it.
