The staff is more than excellent every point if contact and they don't even work for the same company - the hotel is separate from the restaurant that is separate from the golf club but the staff act as one! The service level is higher then at five star top hotel in Asia or the US and they are so... More

Good points - lovely staff, lovely views over golf course. BAD POINTS: Nothing at all like the description given by the golf tour operator. Shabby, tired, not a proper hotel resort. Golf hire equipment terrible, course really bad condition. All in all a very expensive resort for what you are getting. Pool closed as well.

My wife and I booked a golf vacation through Master Golf IT and we specified that we wanted to stay at Castelgandolfo based on their literature. I will say the site is lovely, the course sits in a volcanic crater and is beautiful at sunrise. The course is okay but I am glad we scheduled ourselves to play at three... More

Once we had recovered from the realisation that the tour operator had oversold this resort as 4* accommodation, we settled down to enjoy our stay. The staff could not do enough to make our stay with them enjoyable. They were very helpful and attentive. Top marks to them. This is a remote location, with a golf course. We were lucky... More

The golf resort is in receivership. Its ownership group owes over 300,000,000 euros. The staff hasn't been paid in 6 months. Course, equipment, "suites" are all in bad condition. Golf buggies and electric trolleys break down frequently. Suites are located quite a long walk from the reception building where breakfast is served. The restaurant is only open on Thursday, Friday... More

First time in Italy.. Everything was fine. Room was clean, service great. View from the balcony was incredible!! (.. and you can see whole golfcourse from there) Only sad thing was that the clubhouse´s restaurant wasn´t open every night. But lunchtime it was and the food was very good. And in bar we ate sandwiches, there were great too. Car... More

I was at Castelgandolfo for a golf tournament in May. First thing to bear in mind: it is very isolated. If you go to Ciampino airport (the low-cost hub) a taxi ride to Castelgandolfo is about 20-25 Euros. From Fiumincino you would expect to pay 70-80 Euros. If you are going to stay, a hire car is a must because... More

We where here for playing golf so location is excellent and golf i good. The staff is really easy to work with and is really helpfull when providing tee times, taxis or other needs that we had. The downside of the resort is the location, when it comes to travling to and from anything, if you don´t rent a car,... More

I just played this course Saturday, 3/10/12. The positives are: The people are very nice. The course and location is Gorgeous! Now, for the reality check: I've golfed all over the world, and this was the single worst-condition course I've ever played. I'll overlook that they had just recently plugged and sanded the greens, thus they were not playable (even... More
