When we arrived, we were received with a friendly reception and walked to our room for convenience. The grounds were beautiful, and the rooms were clean. The bed was very comfortable, there was a mini fridge to keep our drinks cold and a blow dryer in the bathroom. The breakfast wasn’t very good with a variety of meats, cheeses, eggs, cereal, fruit with coffee and juices to drink. We were very impressed with the property!

The property was very beautiful. It had wildlife (saw a couple foxes, frogs, lizards and cats) and many areas to explore. The staff was very helpful and made every effort to make sure we had transportation (utilized the shuttle many times) when needed. Really enjoyed the extra effort by the staff.

Nice place, bad service at the restaurant
Hotel is located in a secluded area, very quaint and beautiful landscape. Hotel room and bathroom was spacious, and beautifully revamped with a mediaval touch. They did not have a fridge, but had a safe and a closet space. Brakfast was good and not crowded. Service was great during the included breakfast, but service was terrible at the expensive dinner. We had dinner at the restaurant, the service was terrible. One of my friends ordered a plate of pasta, but he only mentionned to her that they were out of that type of pasta once dinner was served for the rest of our group. She then ordered another plate, and aksed him if there was any meat in that pasta, because she is a vegetarian. He said 'no carne'. When he brought her dish out, they had put bacon mixed into the gnocchis...She ordered another plate, but the server charged us for both plates, when he was in the wrong and we did not even touch the gnocchi plate which we returned. We can hear the server talking loud to the cook what had happened, when we returned the plate. The cook even came out of his kitchen to see who returned the plate. Also you can see the kitchen from the outside terrasse, the cook lit a cigarette inside the kitchen...

Our room had several issues. The AC unit was leaking water onto the floor and would create puddles. There was mold on one of the walls. The shower pan also leaked onto the bathroom floor. Breakfast is extremely limited, and the restaurant food was awful. I do not recommend this property.

Loved this place , it’s a relaxing and beautiful setting. It was actually much nice than I expected . Do be aware it’s a bit out of town. When I originally booked we had a car , we ended up not having one (long story but ended up very glad NOT to have one) They do have a shuttle that takes you to the metro stop but as we are a family of four and that added up we just took busses , which was fine but added some time and made it impossible to get downtown early to avoid the crowds - However - I think it was worth it ! Would absolutely stay here again ! Can’t beat what you get for the price , and best of all was all the delicious fresh fruit for breakfast !

This unique property was amazing! Close to Rome, yet had a country feel. We enjoyed seeing the busy sights of Rome during the day and returning to our peaceful room at night. Our room was gorgeous and fit all five of our family perfectly! We would definitely book again!

We spent almost a week here to visit Rome. Honestly, we could have spent the week at the Relais Castrum. The grounds are amazing. The room was spacious and authentic. Each morning we woke to songbirds out the window, open the door to see horses running through the distant fields, and no cars/trucks/motorcycles anywhere. Some day we will return to Italy to visit again. It will be tough for anyone to surpass the level set by Relais Castrum.

Disliked: Staff & service
I was pretty disappointed in the whole experience here, for starters the rooms shown on the listing are not the rooms you get, without paying and extra 50 -80 euros a night. the rooms you get are much smaller and far less comfortable. the bed was like a rock, we had to layer blankets under the sheet to make it bearable.the heat didn't work and the shower flooded every time we took a shower. but the food was great and most of the staff was nice other than the women at the front desk, who was very rude and not helpful at all. the best part of this Hotel was Angela. the lady who took us into town each day.

This hotel is excellent in that it is using buildings from the 9 century ad. They have done a fantastic job, only let down by its massive upkeep, with amazing gardens.

Very nice location, very picturesque. All was good with the exception of having dinner in the restaurant. There were 2 weddings and a first communion going on, thus the staff were "busy". We were served our drinks and some bread...no plates, no butter. A different waiter arrived and we asked him for some butter....he did not return...after another 15 minute wait we left. My comment is that you treat all your guests equally and then I would not have to make this comment.

READ THIS BEFORE BOOKING THIS HOTEL. If you are not planning on spending any time in Rome, then this hotel is lovely. It's in the countryside. But it is far from Rome. If you are planning to actually visit Rome and tour the city. It's 30 minutes away from the last metro station to Rome (Batistini). They offer a shuttle that is 5 euros at 9am and 5 euros at 7pm. Any other time, it cost me 25 euros. And you have to schedule it the day before. If another room wanted to share a ride, it's 15 eurors per room. I spent 75 euros on shuttle rides in the 3 days I was there! It was awful. And that was just to get to the metro station. There is also nothing really close by to walk to. So you are stuck at the hotel. If you have a car then you can go places but as we are tourists not willing to risk Rome traffic, we didn't so we were stuck and it was not fun. This was the most horrible experience during our 15 day Italy tour. The people were not

Hotel is perfect if you want to REALLY get away from the hustle and bustle of the city. But if you’re going to be in Rome for only a few days, this place is not ideal. TOO far from the city center. You have to pay to be shuttled to and from town, regular drop off time is 9am and pick up is 7pm. I’d you deviate from those times, it will cost you more. Breakfast was good. Room was clean, we couldn’t get the ac to work but we didn’t need it. We just had to open the windows and the room cools down comfortably. Walls are thin! Our friends were next door to us and we can hear their snoring and sneezing. There’s a safe and it’s free to use. No elevator. Shower stall is small. There’s a small fridge with some drinks, but they’re expensive. So if you’re a snacker bring your own loot. Or get it from the only thing close by this hotel. Restaurant service was ok, older waiter was not too friendly. Seemed more annoyed to see us, or maybe he just hates his job. There’s nothing close by this place except for a restaurant/bar/“disco” which is down the hill from this hotel. They were kind enough to let us order food even though they were not technically open yet. The older lady realized how hungry we were. They’re food was good and really cheap. They have karaoke and “disco” on certain nights but we were too tired from exploring Rome so we didn’t get to experience their disco while we were there. When we were checking out, we realized they gave us each other’s room. So be careful with tha
