Casale Doria Pamphilj in Testa di Lepre di Sopra, open June–November.
Casale Doria Pamphilj is an 18th-century Roman estate that once served as a working agricultural property before undergoing meticulous restoration to become a luxury hotel and wedding venue.
The restored casale preserves its original architecture while offering modern amenities across manicured grounds in the Castelli Romani hills.
Positioned between Rome's urban sophistication and the Alban countryside, it provides a historic setting 35 kilometers southeast of the capital.
Casale Doria is the ultimate dream wedding venue. The staff, especially Cristina and Peter, went above and beyond to make our 3 days the best of our lives and ones we will never forget. The food is top tier (I still dream of the ravioli!!) The price for what you get is amazing value, and the staff couldn't do enough to accommodate every request and tend to all guests like VIPs. They honestly made all of the planning and set up so easy for us. My guests have all told us how much they loved the venue and have even recommended it to others based off their experiences! If I could do it all again I would choose Casale in a heartbeat!
