Le Camere Pinte

Sleeping inside the medieval village

Le Camere Pinte is a medieval courtyard house in the old town of Sermoneta, at Via Matteotti, 3: a small 15th-century stone palace restored to host guests in rooms and apartments. They call it bed & wellness, because on top of the accommodation they add a private spa in the same house. Sleeping here means having the Caetani castle, the churches and the viewpoints of Sermoneta a few minutes' walk away, and being able to stroll the village at night, when the day-trippers have gone. The Garden of Ninfa is down on the plain.

Rooms and apartments

There are double rooms, with a double bed or two beds, and private bathroom. The apartments have two or three bedrooms, all with bathroom, kitchen equipped with dishwasher, washing machine, fridge, hob and oven, dining room and living room with sofa and television, and sleep 2 to 6 people, for short or long stays. Towels, bed linen, toiletries, wifi, heating and final cleaning are included; on request, a travel cot for children.

Published rates per night run from €100 (one-bedroom apartment for two) to €130 with two bedrooms, €180 for four people and €240 to €265 for six. Book by phone on 338 526 5478 or with the form on the website.

The private spa

The spa is booked exclusively for 90 minutes: Carrara marble hammam, Finnish cedar sauna, relaxation area with music and chromotherapy, a small hydromassage pool and an outdoor solarium with views. With an overnight stay come a bathrobe, slippers, a towel and a herbal tea at the end. They sell packages that combine a night and the spa, from a couple's getaway to night, spa and aperitif, and others with excursions: a visit to the Garden of Ninfa, a winery tasting or a canoe trip on the Cavata river. For those with children, they offer a babysitting service while you use the spa.

Getting there

Sermoneta is about 9 km from Ninfa, half an hour by mountain road. Without a car, the website reminds you that Rome is reached by train: the nearest station is Latina Scalo, on the plain, and from there you have to take a taxi up.
