An Art Nouveau palace above the lake
The Castel Vecchio is an Art Nouveau building at Viale Pio XI, 23, in Castel Gandolfo, overlooking the crater of Lake Albano. Most of its 50 rooms look onto the lake. On the roof, the roof garden has an outdoor pool with views; below, the Sala Domiziana houses an indoor pool. There is a restaurant, a 24-hour reception and free private parking, something worth its weight in gold in the Castelli.
Who it suits
For making a base in the Castelli Romani: Castel Gandolfo and its papal palace are a few minutes away, Ariccia and Nemi a quarter of an hour by car, Frascati twenty. Also for a quiet first or last night near Ciampino airport. The hotel organises cycling tours around the Castelli, around the lakes of Castel Gandolfo and Nemi and along the Via Appia Antica, with mountain-bike hire and guides, and walking excursions. It is much used for weddings and events, so ask if there is one on the day you go.
Getting there
By car, along the Via Appia Nuova from Rome. Without a car, a regional train from Termini to Castel Gandolfo on the Albano line and a walk to the hotel.
