Foro Appio Mansio Hotel

“Rustic luxury”

Our tour leader chose this hotel because of its nearness to the garden at Ninfa, and also because of the hotel's great restaurant. We had a seafood dinner that exceeded all expectations.

Our tour leader chose this hotel because of its nearness to the garden at Ninfa, and also because of the hotel's great restaurant. We had a seafood dinner that exceeded all expectations. Our rooms were in the main building. Mine was on the 3rd floor (the attic) which is not served by the elevator, so I had a set of stairs to climb. The elevator was difficult to use: if you took your finger off the button, it stopped moving. My attic room was clean and comfortable. It had no window, just a skylight over the bed, but I found that a pleasant novelty. The hotel staff seemed unused to dealing with tour groups, and forgot to collect and bring downstairs our suitcases on the day of departure, but they sprang into action when reminded.

“Needs Improvement ”

We spent 3 nights here in May. The rooms were sparse with no place to store folded clothing. The bathroom did not have a shower. It had a bathtub with a hand held shower head. The water coming out of the tub and sink was brown. The restaurant was very good and we also enjoyed the breakfasts.

“Nice but needs more updating”

Stayed here 1 night with a group of 30 of us traveling together. The hotel is nice and had updated bathrooms but the rooms could use an update. Our bus could not come near the rooms so we had to lug our suitcases over Very rough stone driveway a very long way. Would have been nice if they would ... more

Stayed here 1 night with a group of 30 of us traveling together. The hotel is nice and had updated bathrooms but the rooms could use an update. Our bus could not come near the rooms so we had to lug our suitcases over Very rough stone driveway a very long way. Would have been nice if they would have delivered our bags. The air conditioning worked fine and there was a mini fridge in the room. The grounds were lovely, there is a huge pool and huge spa which was empty. The restaurant prepared a 1st century dinner which was very good and interesting. When we came into breakfast the next morning there were 25 cakes, pies and loaves of bread along with the usual Italian buffet breakfast. Overall it was a lovely visit.

“Boutique Hotel but did not blow me away”

Stopped over in Latina en route to the Amalfi coast. Apparently this is an old converted post office. Room was a bit hot as the air conditioning was not working properly. Not much close to the hotel so we had dinner there. Food was ok, again a bit bland. Breakfast was edible but at €150 per room ... more

Stopped over in Latina en route to the Amalfi coast. Apparently this is an old converted post office. Room was a bit hot as the air conditioning was not working properly. Not much close to the hotel so we had dinner there. Food was ok, again a bit bland. Breakfast was edible but at €150 per room you would expect just a little better. Staff were friendly in fairness so as a one night stop over it was grand!

“Good location, huge potential but needs some upgrading”

An excellent location, rooms were 'rustic and quirky' but nice and clean. The restaurant was good without being exceptional and depending which member of staff that served could be very pleasant or a bit grumpy !

An excellent location, rooms were 'rustic and quirky' but nice and clean. The restaurant was good without being exceptional and depending which member of staff that served could be very pleasant or a bit grumpy ! The pool and leisure facilities were good but getting to the point where they need some investment and more regular maintenance. Unusual place but overall Ok for a couple of nights or overnight on the way back to the airport.
