La Posta Vecchia Hotel

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.

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.

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.

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

We loved everything about La Posta Vecchia - stunning location, beautiful venue, amazing food, wonderful spa services and great staff. If you are looking for a relaxing vacation and you'd like to be pampered, this is the place for you. A big plus: the hotel is dog friendly and our Mela was treated like a queen. We will certainly go back!

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.
