Traveling in Italy during heatwave is a true challenge, specially if tourists are over 50. This is where you need a good hospitable hotel. Our group was really lucky to be welcomed by Hotel Villa Rosa staff. The minute we stepped in we were greeted by a very professional English Speaking concierge Marina Fuuone had everything organized for us. The rooms were clean and orderly. Marina explained everything and answered all the questions asked by the group. She was a great facilitator made everyone’s day pleasant regardless the poor weather conditions. A great service, supper assistance! Thank you Marina for making our stay worthwhile!
Nice hotel with a great swimming pool, well appreciated during the hot summer. The design of the room is quite old. There is a free parking. The breakfast is absolutely uninteresting with very limited choice of food and not good. The hotel is located about 15min away from the city center by foot.
Disappointing stay – far from 4‑star quality. We spent two nights here and unfortunately left with a very negative impression. What looked appealing online turned out to be a tired, outdated property with poor attention to guest comfort.The bathroom was especially unpleasant – an awkward folding shower door, no bidet (unexpected for a “4‑star” hotel), and a strong sewage smell that made it uncomfortable to use. To make matters worse, the door to our room didn’t even close properly, which is concerning from a safety perspective. Public areas were just as disappointing. The pool was small, with an uninspiring outdoor space, and the photos online certainly didn’t match reality. Breakfast was basic and unremarkable, well below what you’d expect for the rating – though I will say the breakfast staff themselves were friendly and attentive, which was one of the few positives. The low point came when we asked, after check‑out, if we could use the pool for an hour before leaving. In most hotels, this is offered as a courtesy to departing guests. Here, we were told flatly, “We have 100 guests arriving, there’s no space for you,” followed by “those are the rules.” There was no willingness to accommodate, no flexibility, and no sense of appreciation for guests who had just paid to stay there. Overall, this property falls far short of the standard it claims – not only in terms of facilities, but in the attitude of management. There are many other hotels in the area that are better maintained, more welcoming, and more deserving of your time and money.
