 Todi, Italy. Travel guide & tourist information by Hostelbookers.com
TODI is one of the best-established Umbrian hill-towns, at heart still a thriving and insular agricultural centre, but also a favoured trendy retreat for foreign expats and Rome's arts and media types.
In the way of these things the tourists haven't been far behind, but neither fact should deter you from making a day-trip: few places beat it for sheer location and fairy-tale medievalism.
Hotels are in demand, especially during the increasingly popular Todi Festival (first ten days of Sept), and – except for one very nice but expensive four-star, the Fonte Cesia, Via Lorenzo Leoni 3 (tel 075.894.3737, fax 075.894.4677; €105–130) – are characterless, modern affairs some way out of town.
