Stayed for 4 nights. Our friend’s wedding was held here- it was spectacular! Beautiful grounds, historic venue, and friendly staff I stayed in the Annex and enjoyed my short walk to the main building for breakfast each morning. We used the free shuttle bus to Frascati town most days to then catch trains to Rome for sightseeing. The wedding ceremony was held in an ancient gallery within the main building. The sense of history was palpable. The medium sized swimming pool is a relaxing with a hammock and shaded areas to rest in the July heat. My room was spacious and bed was comfy. I hope to return! Ps. On the way back to airport at 3am we drove past a wild pig on the main road. Strange but true!

Be careful with this hotel as money was stolen from us! We stayed at this hotel for one night as we were attending a wedding that was taking place there. When we arrived, we dropped our bags off in the room and went to the pool for about an hour before heading back to get ready for the wedding. I had prepared the exact amount of cash I needed for the hair and makeup, so I knew exactly what I had with me. When it was time to pay, I opened my wallet and realised €80 was missing. I couldn’t believe it. It must have been taken by someone who had access to the room, likely staff, as the door was locked when we left. The cleaning service was working in the corridor at the time we went to the pool, so it’s very possible it happened then. Because the wedding was about to start and we had an early departure the next morning, I didn’t have the chance to report it to the reception or management. But after we got home, I looked up reviews and saw other people had reported the same kind of thing happening, which was really concerning. It’s a shame because it could have been a great stay otherwise, but this really left a bad impression and we would definot return there ever again.

This former Relais and Chateaux member is hosted in a stunning 16th century villa on a hill dominating Rome It was constructed by a Cardinal and is filled with frescoes painted by Italian masters that are mentioned in history of art books among which the restored galleria del Pannini. Accommodations are located in the main villa or in the adjoining paggeria and limonaia and are furnished in traditional style with rich fabrics, walnut furniture, terracotta flooring and travertine bathrooms. My room was located in the main villa with views of the city of Rome and boasted high vaulted ceilings. Wandering through the many frescoed rooms is a wonderful experience that makes you live in history especially when the night falls and the light from the lampshades enhances the details. The beauty of the establishment is truly remarkable and service is efficient and unobtrusive. Hat off to Hana from the reception who followed me from the reservation all through my stay satisfying all of my requests delivering personal attentive service making it a very pleasant stay.

A large villa with beautiful views down the valley from the main house. The villa is grand, but quite worn, but pleasant nonetheless. Breakfast does not have a large selection, but everything is there, including omelette and ham and cheese. There was also a complimentary bottle of water in the room. Considering the size of the hotel, there are not many parking spaces, but it seems that, in general, everything should fit in the territory. Having an outdoor pool is a big plus in summer. There is also a bar by the pool. In addition to the main house, rooms are offered in two outbuildings. We discovered by chance that all the buildings are interconnected by underground corridors. In bad weather, it is very convenient to go to the main building from the outbuildings for breakfast or dinner. We chose a room in the adjacent building, because according to the previous information, all the rooms in the main building were 16 m2 (including luxury numbers and that is too little). An Executive room with a size of 20 m2 was offered in the adjacent building. While walking in the main building, we saw a couple of rooms that had just been cleaned and it was obvious that they were significantly larger than our 20 m2 room. If I had the correct information, I would have preferred these rooms because the room was nicer and the main house has better views. The pool area is quite poorly maintained. With better cleaning and a little renovation, the appearance could be greatly improved. The pool itself is quite small (too small for swimming). During peak hours, there may be a shortage of sunbeds by the pool. The room looked much better on the pictures (Executive double) than the one we got (room 73). The room was very ascetically furnished and everything was quite worn. The diverter button for the shower mixer was broken and it was difficult to switch to the overhead shower. There was no possibility to make tea and coffee in the room. Check-out at 10:30 at the latest is obviously too early. Although there were some nuances that could have been better, we are definitely ready to come here again.
