The lakeview was awesome! Housekeeping service on each day of stay was nice. Double room was spacious. Very polite customer service (but they speak very little English). Right next is a restaurant which is one of the few open until late night.
La Locanda Del Pontefice - Luxury Country House overlooks Castel Gandolfo's lake and the Roman countryside. Just 5 mi from Ciampino Airport, it offers accommodations with LCD TVs and internet access.
Enjoying a peaceful location just a 5 minute drive from central Castelgandolfo and with a private beach on the lake, Hotel La Culla Del Lago is ideal for a relaxing stay.

The view and location of the hotel was absolutely excellent. We were tucked up away and felt very much in our own little world. The restaurant was of one the more imaginitive and delicious meals we had on our trip. Would very much like to stay here again if we are ever back in Castel Gandolfo.
Hotel Castel Vecchio has a stunning position directly above Lake Albano, just a 5-minute walk from the historical center of Castel Gandolfo, and 984 feet from Villa Barberini.

The view was spectacular. However, our room had sloping ceilings and my tall husband kept bumping his head. We booked rather last minute so this may have been all that was available.

Location is great, on the main road of Castel Gandolfo. I only stayed one night, but the place is equipped with everything you need for a longer stay.

A lovely atmospheric little place, good bars and restaurants and some pleasant little local shops and craftspeople. Wonderful views. You can visit the Papal Palace and Gardens as well as the Art Gallery and Museum of Art.

Nice place to stay out of Rome, but not too far (about 40 min by car to the centre). Close to nature, Albano lake is within the half an hour walk down the hill. There is access to the beach with a restaurant and a bar (and a parking lot) where you can rent a chair. Parking can be little tricky in this town with narrow streets. Some wide cars might not fit the most narrow streets which are also one-way.
Ciampino airport is 25 min away by car. Also reachable by train

Castel Gandolfo is a beautiful town.
Castel Gandolfo is a beautiful town. The Pope's palace isn't much to see inside but it has miles of gorgeous gardens and views. The pine trees are some of the healthiest I have seen in Italy. The food is amazing. We frequented La Papessa and Pagnanelli - we'd go back just to eat some more.

A lovely, classic Italian Hotel in an ideal location with fabulous views and lovely interiors. The main terrace has wonderful views over lake Albano and is a lovely place to relax. The Hotel has two small pools, one in the same space as the breakfast area! and the other on the roof terrace.

It's a very small place and the area is very hilly. Not recommended if you want to spend a lot of time wandering around the area. However, we found it very clean and peaceful.
Restaurants are very good and a wide choice of food is available considering it is so small.

It is a small town but we’ve done all the biggies and wanted a smaller town. Lots of restaurants for a small town but that’s probably because of the day trippers from Rome. Also Romans go there on weekends to escape the crowds of the city, especially this year because there are so many more tourists according to the locals and the food is really good. Some restaurants you might want to consider, Sor Capanna, great pizza, and pasta with boar sauce. Cumin Arte, they offer other things but this is definitely seafood oriented, great mussels and seafood options. Hosteria Fraschetta, we ate there a couple of times, the food is that good, a little bright inside but everyone was enjoying themselves one cool, rainy night. All of the above also have outdoor seating.

We stayed in the two bedroom apartment, which had a wonderful view of the lake. The apartment was a short walk to the main streets of Castel Gandolfo (it’s separate from the main Atlantis Inn building). The bedrooms and bathrooms were spacious and updated wonderfully. The apartment was cleaned daily by staff. Internet is great. We did not have to use AC/heat. Good sound insulation when windows are closed.
The apartment was large and comfortable with two double, two single beds and two bathrooms. Nicely decorated and fully equipped. Calm neighbourhood with some parking spots always available. Some shops like coffee shop, bakery, mini market at walking distance. The host was a relatively good English speaker, which is rare in Italy (as we came to find out). Wi-Fi speed was satisfactory.
The place was very organized, clean and with all the facilities. Well located in a beautiful and quiet area close to an amazing lake that you can have a nice view on the way to the train station that is about 8 minutes walking. You can go straight to Rome center with this train line. The place is also close to the airport ciampino.
Location of the hotel in the mountain was just fantastic. Great relaxing atmosphere. Clean and big room with a nice roof window. View of the lake Albano is just stunning. Dinner in the evening was great value for money. Secure parking. This is a Hotel different from then main stream in all positive way
The view and location of the hotel was absolutely excellent. We were tucked up away and felt very much in our own little world. The restaurant was of one the more imaginitive and delicious meals we had on our trip. Would very much like to stay here again if we are ever back in Castel Gandolfo.
Superb hotel (B+B) right in the middle of Castelgandolpho. Huge, comfy bed and a patio with views across the lake. Roberta helped us find a (free) parking space in a locked garage 3 mins from the hotel. Breakfast at a little café round the corner. One of the best places I have ever stayed.
The villa is lovely and excellent value for money. We were a family of 3 and were very comfortable in the space. The view is absolutely beautiful and the village, Castel Gandolfo, is a must. The host is super friendly and the kitchen was stocked with goodies to get you started.
This apartment was everything they said it would be! So lovely and comfortable. A place to take a breather and recharge. The walk to the town was easy as long as you take it slow. The small town is charming with some great places to eat. Easy to get to by train from Rome.
Cosy little apartment in the heart of Castel Gandolfo with a magnificent balcony view of the lake. The apartment is small but fully functional with all the amentities needed for a few days in the area. There is also parking a few hundred meters away from the place
The location is great, in the main street of a small very old hilltop town. Therefore there many eateries and also walks to do, plus if you're interested there is the lake. It's a peaceful retreat from busy Rome, but only 2.10euro for the train into Rome.
Fantastic property. Peaceful area, beautiful building, well equipped with everything you need, great views too. Spacious clean room.
3 minutes walk to the train station direct into Rome. 10 minutes walk to village. Gated parking on-site. Friendly hosts.
We had a gorgeous view from the room to the lake. Room has all what you need, renovated and clean bathroom. Hotel is few steps away from good restaurants and cocktail bars. The drive to reception is quite a steep climb.
The apartment was beautifully located above the lake with a wonderful view. Ivan took care of us with fresh coffee specialties for breakfast and great information on our day trip to Rome. The kids loved the garden.
The host was amazing! Very kind. Good communication. Came to pick us up at the train station from Castel Gandolfo and even got dinner as we arrived quite late. Good location, nice room and breakfast. Fantastico!
The views across the lake are panoramic and splendid - but the hotel is high and unfortunately for us it was very windy on our stay. Quirky! Great room size and attentive staff - when visible!
The Staff was very friendly and helpful. The view from the room to the lake was incredibly beautiful and the hotel is very well placed in the centre close to very good restaurants.
Breakfast provided at nearby bar, nice continental breakfast. We were upgraded to the nearby Romeo and Juliet, not Il Valentino, so above comments apply to that.
