Reviews for Villa Agrippina Gran Melia
5-star perhaps, but lacking true European hospitality
The Good: Lovely grounds and location (10 minute walk to The Vatican); Staff are extremely pleasant; Shower in room is awesome; breakfast buffet extremely well done and replenished. The Bad: Pricing is Zurich-like (20 Euro for single-shot of Woodford Reserve at the bar) and 100 Euro lunches (charcuterie platter, small salad and 2 beers) and 10 Euro for small diet coke in minibar. On-site store - 450 Euro for a shirt! The Ugly: Charging guests 50 Euro per person per hour to use the Spa (Hint: Go to any 5-star resort or hotel in Germany, Austria or Sudtirol and entire Spa facilities are included and wonderfully textile-free. See, Stanglwirt or Birkenhof or even Bayerischerhof München). Swimming pool, while "free" was only open 11:30 - 17:00, precluding an early morning or evening swim when most would enjoy it. People are site-seeing during the day. See photo of empty pool. Maybe because it is a chain hotel?

Breathtaking views in an awesome location
Stay here. Great location and such beautiful accommodations. Great food as well. Smiling friendly people. Pool was beautiful. Private deck/beach access is 2nd to none.

We will return! This hotel was perfect and centrally located to do all the things!
The staff were delightful, the location allowed us to taxi to and from all of the sites and we were just a five minute walk from the Vatican which provided for our multiple visits! The hotel is pristine and the service is incredible. The concierge made us reservations for dinner at authentic restaurants to our specs and booked multiple conveniences to make our trip more special.

Perfect stay
Stayed for 5 nights as a couple in September in the Vatican Suite. Suite was beautiful, well appointed, and the terrace was great with absolutely stunning views across the city. Housekeeping and all of the other staff were impeccable. Restored our faith after a couple of poor experiences in other 5 star hotels around the world in the past couple of months. Just sublime.

The best hotel in Rome. Congratulations to the management of the Gran Melia Rome for an extremely well-organized hotel.
