- veronique (10/5): Great setting for a laid back and relaxing stay - Perfect location. Discreet service. Amazing property, felt like home straight away. Ideal to relax between spa, beach and pool and end the day with a wonderful dinner
- Luciano (10/5): - Servizio e cura dei dettagli
- laurendp (10/5): One of the best properties in Italy - This was my third stay at La Posta Vecchia and I hosted a birthday celebration for a large group of friends. I cannot recommend this property enough. The service, the food, the atmosphere, the setting, the accommodations, and attention to detail remain some of the best I have experienced. Every room in the villa feels special. If you haven't been, go! I cannot wait to return next year.

- mohammed (10/5): Unforgettable - Atmosphere Distance from center of room
- Pierrick (10/5): Really appreciate the hotel and the staff was very attentive. We enjoy massage that was very good - The architecture, the furniture and the details are beautiful
- rinaldo007 (8/5): Great location, service below expectation. - Terrific location in a region with very few quality alternatives. Beautiful building. Nice garden. Good restaurant in the evening. Sad that the reception team was so unpleasant, disrespectful and unhelpful. Rarely seen that in a five star hotel.
- Bernhard (10/5): Einfach perfekt - Hier stimmt einfach alles! Großartige Location, super Service, freundliches Personal, ausgezeichnetes Essen, wunderbar stilvoll
- Simona (10/5): Un soggiorno meraviglioso!! - Tutto perfetto

- Alexander (10/5): -
- Susan (8/5): - This is a very unique hotel in Ladispol. It is surrounded by elegant and beautiful grounds but it is very much in a stand alone area with nothing to do apart from relax in the hotel . The staff are exceptionally helpful . A special shout for Luca the waiter in the restaurant who went over and beyond to make our stay memorable. The food in the restaurant is delicious including breakfasts and the hotel pride themselves on local produce . The rooms are dark and it does feel a little like staying in a museum but a luxurious one ! The aircon is also questionable with little control and certainly not reaching the temperature stated . There are a lot of stone steps so if you are unsteady on your feet beware . The hotel stands by rules with check out time rigidly adhered to and drinking water limits by the pool but taking all this into consideration, this is a beautiful hotel in a magnificent setting . The pricing of food and drink reflects a captive audience and did feel expensive ( glass of wine 23€) but the staff , the hotel and its ambience is enough to draw you back .
- Gary (10/5): - We loved our stay there. We had the amazing Castello corner Suite with wonderful views and vast, comfortable space filled w age-appropriate antiques. The entire villa and grounds were extraordinary and worthy of Mr Getty's stature.My lady also enjoyed the Spa with a wonderful Cocoon massage from Celia. We also loved the food and being able to dine on the Terrace w the sea rolling in. All in all, a great experience.
- Daydream05349094791 (10/5): La Posta Vecchia Hotel - Wonderful experience! A former J. Paul Getty residence situated just a short drive away from Fiumicino Airport. Friendly staff, excellent food and a relaxing spa and indoor swimming pool. ‘Dolce far bene’ is their motto!
- Paul (10/5): We enjoyed the incredible view, great rooms, wonderful food and impecable service. - We frequently have a one night layover before we take our return trip out of Rome back to the US. In the past, we have stayed at airport hotels as well as nice properties in central Rome. After this trip we will only stay at the Posta Vecchia Hotel. The hotel is located around 40 minutes out of FCO. The boutique property is beautiful, and is located directly on the sea.The rooms are very large, and have incredible seaside views. Eating our meals on the patio overlooking the ocean was wonderful. The food and the service was over the top. This is an incredible place to get some rest and relaxation. I am unsure if the hotel has an elevator. We only used the beautiful stone stair cases, which were a little taxing.
- Francesca (9/5): -
- ARNAUD (10/5): -
- nicoletta (10/5): Paradiso del cuore e degli occhi - Perfetto e di ottima qualità
- Vincent (8/5): exclusive relaxing place to recharge - Great restaurant location looking over the sea and hotel very nice old with charm with historic parts discovered below in the basement. Staff we excellent. lots of wasps at a breakfast food menu was the same most nights
- steveseldo (10/5): One of our favorite hotels. - We have been visiting LPV for over a decade now and it keeps getting better. Locked away in a private park with a suite facing the sea, the hotel is simply enchanting. There’s a private beach, large indoor pool and a wonderful restaurant with a new chef making delicious contemporary dishes. The service is impeccable, the wait staff and bartenders friendly and professional and the management and staff work hard to address your every need. We will plan to return again.
- Amy (9/5): Beautiful property. Great for relaxing and doing nothing. - Breakfast was fine. The location was a little remote for me, I prefer to be walking distance to more restaurants and shops. Loved having bicycles! Staff was excellent!! The beach was just ok but that area isn’t known for the beach… the wasps were annoying at meal time. Lots of steps but not terrible.
- tessa (9/5): -
- Pierre (10/5): -
- trin0209 (10/5): Incredible lunch - Combined a lovely location, great staff, incredible views, world class cocktails and a lunch that was to die for. Party had the truffle risotto as a starter followed by sea bass and beef - if was all excellent! Well worth flying there for lunch from london !
- rsF297GJ (6/5): Expensive and mediocre - SO much potential but quite dissapoiting.. The property is lovely but the hotel smells and is musty and prob moldy. The food is only fair and certainly not as good as il pelicano. The wine sommelier is quite rude and arrogant, and the list is very over priced. (BTW we were also a bit shocked that the bar charged 30 euros for a soda) The hotel pool is indoors. The rooms are small and the towels were rough. There is no elevator and we were asked to walk up several flights of long stairs . A mistake was made on the bill. Obviously the hotel was once special but we found the service to be lacking, and overall the property to be very expensive with few redeeming factors other then the superb view and the proximity to the Rome airport
- shrink711 (10/5): A Magical Seaside Retreat Just Outside Rome - La Posta Vecchia is a true hidden gem just 45 minutes outside the center of Rome, and it’s become our go-to for the perfect end to our Italy trips. Set on the water, this stunning estate feels more like staying in someone’s private castle than a hotel. The rooms are beautifully appointed—elegant, luxurious, and incredibly comfortable—with top-tier amenities like a high-end coffee maker and plush toiletries. Our room had breathtaking views of the ocean, adding to the peaceful, restorative vibe of the entire stay. The service is simply impeccable. Antonio, the restaurant manager, made our stay especially memorable by organizing a beautiful birthday celebration for my daughters—his attention to detail and warmth elevated the entire experience. We used to stay in the city center for our last night, but now La Posta Vecchia is our luxurious, serene tradition. It's the perfect finale to any Italian holiday. Highly recommend.
- guillermohoter (10/5): An experience in itself - On the sea in an unusual touristic location, this hotel is worth visiting for its building and history Build 500 years ago as a guest house for the neighboring Orsini build castle, the huge palazzo served its purpose until a fire in the XX CENTURY. The oil millionaire Paul Getty bought the property in 1960 and undertook extensive refurbishments and converted it in what we see today. An Italian family bought it from Getty’s estate and converted it into a hotel with much taste and antic furnitures and tapestries. The hotel has a sand beach, presumably of artificial creation by Getty, an indoor swimming pool, a terraced restaurant and large garden on the sea. Rooms are huge and furnished in a palatial style. AC and WIFI work very well. Breakfast is served buffet style. We had lunch and dinner at the hotel and menu and food were ok. Staff is well trained and kind. We had the Castello corner suite which consisted of an open plan huge room with sofa, reading chairs, a large bathroom and closet facing the sea.
- alessandra (10/5): - Straordinaria
- Jeffrey (10/5): A first class hotel , operated by enthusiastic, well trained staff, - Staff excellent, food first class . Nothing
- Sheila (7/5): Disappointing - The property and its view is extremely beautiful. The breakfast was really good. The food was underwhelming and extremely overpriced. In particular, the wine selection was disappointing - they offer mediocre wines at exorbitant prices. Compared to other upscale places in Rome, La Posta Vecchia adds the most markup. Additionally, the rooms are outdated and not particularly spacious. It is in no way comparable to Il Pellicano or Mezzatorre.
- hospesergosum (10/5): Heaven - Arriving at La Posta Vecchia, with the view out to the sea through the billowing curtains of an elegant villa with mature gardens and Roman ruins sets the tone for an unforgettable stay. The staff could not have been more welcoming or thoughtful. The decor is chic, the food outstanding, and the view over the sea and Castello Odescalchi is mesmerising. The team clearly love their work and are passionate about hospitality. A place to come back to again and again.
- spcbeachclub (4/5): Impressive Property, Experience Tainted By Guests - We've enjoyed other Pellicano Group Hotels (Mezzatorre / Il Pellicano), and wanted to stay outside of Rome before our flight home, so this place felt perfect. Unfortunately, the multiple screaming and comically ill behaved children throughout our quick stay completely tainted the experience. I don't understand how the Pellicano Group, which on paper are the best of the best hotels in Italy, do not impose an age limit, or at the barest minimum, tranquility standards that are enforced. The staff seemed fully aware of the noise and the disruptions to other guests, especially coming from the indoor pool as it was impossible to escape anywhere on the terrace, but they did not approach the parents. We got a small break when the pool closed, but while enjoying our dinner on the terrace, one child ran through with his shirt off looking for his parents that had decided to eat without him, and yet nothing but shrugs from the staff. I'm not sure if this is the same child that we heard while we were trying to sleep later that night, but needless to say we didn't sleep, and most likely won't return unless noise standards are imposed.

- Allison (10/5): Worth the effort to get to Ladispoli. - The hotel and surrounding grounds are beautiful. Very close proximity to Rome airport. Amazing restaurant on site. Not one thing
- Riina (10/5): - We had an excellent stay at La Posta Vecchia hotel.
- Rupert (10/5): We love this hotel and always have a great stay - As usual an amazing stay in a beautiful hotel with great staff
- 90068josh (10/5): One of our Favorite Hotels - We have now stayed at Posta Vecchia three times - twice in the past two weeks. It is the perfect spot to stay when flying in and out of Rome FCO airport...only 30 minutes. And if you want to run into the city (we did), they can arrange a driver. It's a relatively small yet regal property. It feels wholly authentic (there's even a museum in the basement. We've stayed in the Olive Suite, Tower Room (attic level) and the Duke's Room. Honestly, they have all been lovely. There are so many great spots to sit and perch around the property, I didn't find us in our room all that much. Great sunning terrace overlooking the sea adjacent to the indoor pool. They also set up a beach area during the summer. Restaurant was great for dinner and a treat at breakfast. The service is quiet but great. When I saw their new tennis court, I asked the concierge to boom me a session and they found me a trainer for the next day - good lesson too! Our last night, we were exhausted and asked they served us dinner in the library, which they did and it was fabulous and relaxing. Francesco in the bar makes a mean negroni.
- Jean (10/5): - Wonderful Classic family owned estate by the sea, very impressive grounds, formerly JP Getty’s summer place! Same family owns the Il Pellicano in Tuscany, much more relaxed and less formal, wonderful grounds by the sea!
- Simon (10/5): - Lovely hotel
- Howard (10/5): - Quaint with character and beautiful grounds.
- 663vaninat (10/5): Heaven on earth - Time has stopped as soon as you enter La posta vecchia ! A gem of beauty, luxury and history. You can enjoy the beautiful pool and visit a museum inside the house. The food was outstanding and the chef was able to create special dishes for us as we eat Kosher. Can’t wait to be back
- Julio Cezar (10/5): - History and landscape
- Eloise (10/5): Exceptional -
- Nicole (10/5): A dream! -
- John (6/5): Final stay - Although a beautiful hotel and setting. Very expensive food and drink. Not much of a selection. Nothing to do. No traditional italian food. Quality of food was Eh. Not near any restaurants or tourist visits or shopping. Would not return
- William (10/5): - Just a perfect location on the sea, with tons of history, great service, beautiful views, incredible food!
- Tyler (10/5): - Great property! Private and great service!
- Katherine (10/5): Another beautiful stay at La Posta Vecchia - we look forward to coming back again and again! - This was my second stay at La Posta Vecchia and it did not disappoint. Everything was beautiful and we even got a free room upgrade on my birthday which was a delightful surprise! The dinner was beyond and the service is impeccable. The only thing I can comment on is the AC in the room. It was quite warm as we were on the upper floor, and the in room AC unit seems old and inefficient. We let the concierge know and they sent someone up to check it, but we ended up sleeping with the windows open for ventilation because it was still too warm.
- Paul (8/5): Great hotel, great location but food not great - good location and very spacious hotel Food in the restaurant could have been better. Dinner was expensive and simply not very good.
- Michael (10/5): Stay in Room after our cruise - WOW! What a beautiful hotel and location. Everyone and everything about La Posta Vecchia was outstanding. Will definitely go back next time in Rome. I highly recommend this hotel if you are in Rome and want an escape from the hustle and bustle of Rome. The location is amazing
- kevin (10/5): - Un endroit hors du temps
- Verified traveler (10/5): The place is Magical - Wonderful accommodations. A plus everything but…The restaurant should have more of an authentic cuisine found in lazio… like real fried zucchini flowers with ricotta not slices zucchini with sauce of ricotta and flowers…if the had simple dishes would of been better.. I didn’t mind spending 25euro for 4 small bocconcini… it was classic with half of a tomato.. fine..i would recommend other restaurants near property … not much variety as well for dinner… as for breakfast, was amazing.
- Val (10/5): I love the hustle and bustle of Rome, but I also love the peace and quiet. - Its a gem! The beach was a little dirty, but its not because of the hotel, you just can’t anticipate what washes up…
- Nicola (8/5): - Very nice property
- eugene (10/5): Dream vacation - Just perfect
- 981stephenm (10/5): A perfect hotel near Rome to end your Italian vacation. - Incredible food and service in a beautiful hotel which is just 40 minutes from Rome airport. Although most guests seem to be only there for a few days (on the way home) the ambiance and service is that of a first class hotel which expects its guests to be there for weeks. We can't wait to return, as it is the perfect way to end a trip to Italy.
- Taemin (10/5): - Absolutely quiet condition. Best hopitality!
- hhishome (6/5): Overrated. It feels like a ghost of what could be, or used to be a great place. - Really a disappointment. It feels like they are struggling financially. The rooms and common areas feel run down and undercapitalized. It's a shame because the property has a tremendous history (which they do nothing to tell one about it), and oceanfront location with nice gardens. The service is ok, the food much less than one would expect for a Small Luxury Hotel. The website is much better than the in person experience.
- Paul (10/5): - Was awesome. Note to fellow travelers: if you go to the train station, pre-arrange your cab as there likely will be no transportation options for you upon arrival, consider taxi from Rome.
- Marcus (9/5): It’s a bit of a destination and not much around the immediate area. But the property itself is exquisite. - Amazing staff and very comfortable room. Dead batteries of the AC didn’t allow me to make the room cool enough. I’d have liked to see an Apertivo hour to get the 19 rooms together as was otherwise very quiet hotel
- Paul (10/5): - Luxury Hotel with exceptional staff. It is a real find and I have already booked to go back.
- Andrew (10/5): Our stay at La Posta Vecchia was nothing short of perfection. -
- Desira (10/5): - What a perfect location for a quiet visit near the hustle and bustle of Rome. We loved the art, decor and the history this property had and really enjoyed exploring the grounds.
- Dr. (9/5): Superb -
- Benjamin (10/5): - The level of service and attention to guests at this hotel is amazing!!! We came for our honeymoon (7) years ago and returned for our 2nd honeymoon this year…….Early to mid June is very nice…..where else in the States can you truly stay in a restored, historic villa that’s on the Mediterranean next to a castle built in the 1,100’s…..? The food, photos, relaxation and amenities are 1 of 1……Lord willing we’ll be back for 4-5 nights next time…… Grazie a tutti la squadra De La Posta Vecchia!!!
- adamhN5033PX (10/5): Amazing - We visited this hotel last minute as we had enough of the hustle and bustle of Rome! We also stayed in their other two sister hotels and thought to complete the trio. I must say the service feels like you are at home. What wonderful staff who really looked after us. Thank you. The hotel grounds are beautiful and the room we were in was stunning. Only 30 minutes from Rome airport too. There is also a museum in the hotel which has remains of an ancient Roman villa. Can’t wait to go back. Very special place.
- Michael (10/5): - Amazing! Truly the best hotel I've ever stayed at. The staff couldn't have been better.
- Steve (8/5): Roman Villa Luxury - Beautiful villa hotel in wonderful gardens Staff were very attentive Restaurant food was not as good as I had expected given the obvious classiness of the propery
- benmurphy1992 (10/5): An Iconic Hotel within touching distance of Rome - La Posta Vecchia was everything we hoped for and more, and is a true gem within touching distance of Rome. The hotel oozes old school elegance, and delivers the perfect “home from home” experience. There are too many unique features of the property to mention them all in one review, but the museum beneath the hotel summed up how interesting the history of the hotel is for guests. The hotel has just 19 rooms and suites, giving a very personal feel and the staff more than delivered. The food is everything you expect of a Michelin Star restaurant, and breakfast location overlooking the sea is perfect. My only thing to highlight would be the location- the hotel is not in a popular tourist area, and for us the time was best spent within the confines of the property- which has a beautiful pool, tennis court and gym alongside the other amenities you might expect.
- Per (10/5): Perfect - Beautiful hotel by the ocean but still so close to Rome. We had a great couple of days after all sightseeing. Service and everything else also top class, can definitely recommend La Posta Vecchia.
- Oliver (9/5): A glorious Roman villa by the sea, steeped in history and packed with warmth and the welcome of an Italian family you ne - La Posta Vecchia was the most wonderful surprise, we had booked to stay at another hotel in this group of properties and decided to break up our journey from the airport with a stay at LPV. It was perfect from the welcome to the Tower Room; the team was so welcoming, warm and hospitable… and the cocktails were awesome, shout out to the boys behind the bar. We had some fantastic meals, breakfast, lunch and dinner at the properties signature restaurant; equally we drank fantastic wine (thank you Stefano, a brilliant, friendly sommelier who was keen to guide us through Italian wines, and chose some special bottles for us) and felt like part of the family, start to finish. Quick tip, grab some bikes and cycle into nearby Ladispoli to enjoy some casual seafood spots, and then head south of the hotel to Julius Caesar’s old seaside hangout, the black iron rich sands are supposed to be very good for the body. Great stay, loved it. Nothing, we would spend more on a sea facing room in the future, but to be honest the Tower Room was just the sense of peace we needed to start our Roman adventure
- Jacqueline (10/5): Exceptional -
- Wendy119186363 (10/5): Superb stay - to return is necessary - A wonderful stay, highly recommended. The whole venue exudes an elegant, serene charm and calmness. The employees we met are sincere, helpful and cheerful. Everyone we saw seemed happy to be working there. Even the people driving the buggies in the grounds acknowledged you with a cheery Buongiorno, salve etc. I was impressed staff remembered my name even though my stay was short. Long post follows: all good. In short, this is a venue to which I would return in a heartbeat. I only had a one night stay here although the best part of two days. It was excellent. From arrival at the airport where a transfer had been arranged to the warm welcome from several of the staff on arrival. It felt very special. The pre arrival dossier had been completed so check in was swift. There was a tour of the hotel, private beach pointed out, lots of information is readily available should you need. Stayed in Caesar room on the top floor which was a generous size, complimentary soft drinks and snacks, good quality toiletries, a good haidryer ( essential and so often lacking!) and a very comfortable bed. The pool is serene and the yellow tones are sympathetic to the age and grandeur of the building. Comprehensive treatments are available ( didn't have time). Signature cocktails are interesting and slightly quirky yet well balanced. The restaurant is calm and staff attentive. Food excellent, roasted lobster was superb, perhaps the best I've had. The wine list is strong and the sommelier helpful and listened well to my preferences. He was spot on with his recommendation- bravo. Breakfast, such a plethora of choice. Well presented. Again staff were courteous, friendly and helpful.
- Clare (10/5): Exceptional -
- LarryH208 (10/5): Unlike any other... extraordinary! - La Posta Vecchia is one of those very special places that you rarely stumble upon during a lifetime of travel. It is now a very special hotel with a limited number of rooms and is associated with the Leading Hotels of the World brand. We stayed at this absolutely special place in late September when the weather was perfect. The setting right on the Tyrrhenian Sea is extraordinary and has been a vacation destination since the time of the romans. La Posta Vecchia was originally built in the 17th century and updated by J. Paul Getty in the 60s when it served as his personal home. It unlike any place we have ever stayed, and the extraordinary staff, food and easy access to central Italy made it one of the most relaxing destinations ever. We did day trips through Italy but were always ready to return for a swim and such wonderful food that we never wanted to dine elsewhere. incredibly special place.

- Richard (10/5): A hidden gem of a hotel on the coast close to Rome and Fiumicino Airport. - The La Posta Vecchia Hotel was a pleasant surprise, a hidden gem close to Fiumicino Airport. We spent three nights before departing Italy, following a trip to Positano and Rome. The hotel manager was kind enough to upgrade us to the beautiful Tower Suite with views over the ocean. The Cocktail Bar was a quiet oasis to relax and read, and the food and service in the restaurant were excellent. We enjoyed touring the grounds and walking the promenade of the nearby beach. It is a spectacular hotel, and we will definitely be back. There could have been more selection on the dinner menu.
- jml66 (10/5): Wonderful place to relax by the sea - This hotel is not cheap, but it is a wonderful place to relax. Just sitting on the seaside terrace and looking at the sea is about the most calming thing you can imagine. The ambience is wonderful and elegant. There are many items of furniture and decor that you might find in a museum. When you stay here, it really feels like you are guests in a well kept noble estate from another century. The bar is wonderful and open very late. When we were there, there was even a pianist nearby playing lovely pieces by Chopin. The in-house restaurant is top quality, and the morning breakfast is the best I have seen anywhere in Italy. We got one of the cheaper rooms, but it was very well appointed, and we had a lovely time. We were only here a single night, and wish we could have had another day or two. Due to its proximity to Fiumicino airport, we will definitely consider it next time we fly through Rome.
- memoirsofatravelbug (8/5): Lovely historic setting near Rome. - Difficult to rate a hotel like LPV given there are very few comparables - the property is historic in every sense so you need to manage your expectations on modernity (the rooms do feel like ur staying in a castle!), the staff are generally warm, and location is 40 minutes or so from Rome’s airport. I think overall the value proposition was okay.
- Barbara (10/5): - Great boutique hotel. Loved the sound of the waves in the morning.
- Laura (10/5): - Wonderful views, rooms and food was excellent. Would definitely stay again. Only complaint is that dining staff was inattentive at times.
- Khaled (7/5): Good -
- Iain (5/5): Passable -
- Beth (8/5): Very good -
- Pauline (10/5): - We enjoyed our stay very much in this lovely place with very helpful and attentive staff. We loved sunset on the terrace overlooking the sea and the breakfast in the dining room was very special with a very good selection of food and very attentive service from the staff. Thank you very much to the very helpful manager, who showed us the Roman remains and was very informative and helpful throughout our stay.
- jacques (10/5): - Très beau,très bien un régal…
- Louis (10/5): - Wonderful. Relax and enjoy.
- John (9/5): Superb - Lovely location. Staff friendly and efficient. Nothing. Hopefully will return.
- Lauren (9/5): A Luxury Hotel in a Beautiful Place - Super quiet at night, very comfortable bed, premises felt super safe, beautiful grounds. Every vista felt worthy of cinema. I used the spa and got an awesome massage -- and the steam room downstairs was great. Loved all the little details, from the pink dishware at breakfast to the personal tour upon arrival. And the museum downstairs is worth a quick visit.
