Séjour très decevant. Avons été victime d’une supercherie inacceptable!
Pros:

La localisation près du lac et de la résidence d’été des Papes. Les déjeuners sur la terrasse.

Cons:

L’hôtel nous a informé seulement à notre arrivée que nous ne pourrions pas avoir accès pendant 2 jours sur 3 aux salles à manger pour le midi et le soir pendant notre séjour étant donné que ces endroits avaient été loués en exclusivité à des tiers. L’hôtel ne nous a offert en plus aucune compensation pour ce vol de privilège légitime pour lequel nous avions payé. Enfin, sans avertissement préalable, nous n’avons pas pu nous relocaliser adéquatement ailleurs même avec l’aide de Booking.com.

נכס תקופתי מקסים שרות מצוין
Pros:

מלון ממוקם היטב קרוב למרכז העתיק בגונדלופו. המלון מאוד מיוחד נכס תקופתי. מאוד נקי והצוות מאוד אדיב ומקצועי. יש בריכה להתרעננות על הגג ונוף מדהים. מומלץ לקחת חדר עם חלון לאגם. מאוד שקט ונוף נפלא. תמורה גבוהה למחיר.

Cons:

הריהוט מרופט. החדרים מאוד בסיסיים וקטנים. ארוחת בוקר לא לטעמי מבחינת איכות וטריות המזון. בעיה נוספת לאלרגים פגשנו המון דבורים גם במלון וגם במרכז העיר

Rilassante e piacevole
Pros:

La struttura è meravigliosa nuova e tenuta benissimo super pulita e la pozione eccellente per fare tutto a piedi, lo staff molto educato gentile e sempre disponibile sopratutto anche la visto sul lago stupenda

Cons:

L’unica cosa che avrei da dire è solo la piscina che ci sarebbe da ristrutturare

A perfect location for a first visit to Castel Gandolfo!
Pros:

The shower and room cleanliness were excellent. The stocked minibar was a plus. The breakfast room was spacious and airy, with a wide range of products and good quality. The little bar was adequate and the bar service available to the pool and solarium areas was a bonus. The walk to and from the town was very easy.

Pros:

Struttura signorile in ottima posizione, camera e bagno spaziosi, staff gentilissimo e molto disponibile.

Cons:

Non abbiamo gradito molto la qualità delle bevande del distributore automatico. Un consiglio: porre maggiore attenzione all'igiene delle stoviglie..
