Sightseeing and tours of the city can be organised upon request. The Vila Piranesi occupies a historic building between the sea shore and the old town centre of Piran in Slovenian Istria, offering modernly furnished apartments with air-conditioning and views of the town.
The site is reached by Via Santa Sabina, which ends in the small, picturesque Piazza dei Cavalieri di Malta enclosed on two sides by the cypresses of the garden of the Benedictines backing the fantasy screen of obelisks and stele constructed in 1765 to designs by Giovanni Battista Piranesi, one of the very few executed designs by this etcher of Roman views who prided himself on being an architect.

On the piano nobile is an assemblage of portraits of the Grand Masters of the Order. Renovated and comfortably furnished apartments, Vila Piranesi offers 17 modernly furnished apartments with air condition: their size ranges from 25m2 to 42m2.
The villa was granted extraterritoriality in 1869. Radical rebuilding was undertaken in the 15th through 17th centuries. The monastery passed to the Templars and after the destruction of their order, to the Knights Hospitallers, predecessors of the present Order of Malta. Set in a prime location of Piran, Vila Piranesi puts everything the city has to offer just outside your doorstep. The site, on a rise directly overlooking the Tiber and access to the Roman Pons Sublicius, was already a fortified Benedictine monastery in the tenth century.
