HISTORY
The aristocratic families of medieval Rome and influential members of the Church knew how to live and therefore chose the most beautiful and tranquil spots away from the hustle and bustle of the Eternal City.
This is how in 1580 the Villa Grazioli came to be built on the rolling hills of this ancient landscape of the Tusculum. Even in those distant days the Villa was a well known meeting place for artists, poets, architects and other famous personalities of the time such as the Marquis de Sade, who describes the house in his writings as one of the most elegant country houses in this part of the Latium Region.
After many years of neglect, the Villa has been completely renovated and lovingly restored by the present owners between 1987 1997 and now reveals the wonderful treasures of its illustrious past. The genuine historical ambience of this 4 star hotel is complemented by a fine restaurant offering excellent mediterranean food and selected wines of the most traditional and famous Italian wine region.
We are proud to welcome guests from all corners of the world and wish you will have a very enjoyable stay at the Parkhotel Villa Grazioli
VILLA GRAZIOLI
Today, Villa Grazioli is an Italian National monument an enchanting hotel with 58 rooms. Impressive halls, frescoed by seventeenth-century artists, are available for meetings and receptions. The colours of frescoes, created by G.P. Pannini in the eighteenth century, appear so lively to the admirer that one would think they were freshly painted.
The Villa has been equipped with the most advanced utilities so that the guests can enjoy the comforts of a modern and functional hotel.
The bedrooms have been furnished and decorated in line with the character of the building: wood, pottery and precious fabrics enrich the furniture, which has been chosen for its prestige, as well as for its elegant lines.
Hospitality professionals offer an impeccable service, in line with the tradition of the Relais & Châteaux group, of which Park Hotel Villa Grazioli is a part.
RESTAURANT
Ample choice of typical Roman and Mediterranean dishes are offered in Acquaviva Restaurant, situated on the ground floor of the Villa.
THE PARK
Apart from the character of the land that ascends towards the top of the Tusculum Hill, the atmosphere is mainly rural, inspiring a spiritual and meditative life in line with the spirit of the Founder.
The gardens originally consisted of 18,480 sq., which were dedicated to orchards, olive groves and a small vineyard. The produce of the land was used to satisfy the demands put on the Villa by numerous guests.
Today, after almost 50 years of neglect, the Park has been restored to take into account what has been left of the Italian Garden, the surviving secular trees and the long imposing driveway that leads to the Villa. A team direct by Architect Romano Greco has meticulously carried out this challenging task.

FEEDBACK
'The hotel completely matches the description: an antique villa in excellent shape with exceptional service. Staff were friendly, the food at the restaurant was great. Getting to Rome was easy and we were awarded with a good night's sleep. We could relax at the pool and enjoy the absolute calm of the grassland. Our room, although not particularly spacious, was comfortable and very clean.
The hotel was georgous and we enjoyed our stay there to the full.'
'We found the hotel to be the ideal starting point for day-trips to Rome and were always pleased by our return to this oasis of calm. Especially usefull is the shuttlebus from the Frascati Station to the hotel so the trip could not be more comfortable.'
'All in all a very pleasant accommodation - I would return in any case.'
