Hotel Castello della Castelluccia Relais, immersed in a scene of rolling hills, Roman woodland and rich vegetation in the Lazio countryside north of Rome, is a genuine 11th century castle intriguing and enigmatic, and with an illustrious and often mysterious past. The official opening of the hotel took place in March 2002. Today the Castelluccia castle has been completely restored and refurbished whilst at the same time has maintained its charm and ancient feel. The gardens and grounds have re-attained their regal look and floral splendour while the courtyard and pool area provide the perfect backdrop for those once in a lifetime occasions like weddings, anniversaries and golden jubilees. The property is renowned for its luxury accommodation and VIP status. Many prominent Italian politicians and celebrities have stayed here. Elegant surroundings and hand painted frescoes combine to create a distinct recherché atmosphere and a charm associated only with the most prestigious of properties.
