Villa Domus Petra in Palestrina.
Villa Domus Petra rises from the Castelli Romani hills southeast of Rome, offering sweeping views across the volcanic landscape toward the city's distant dome.
This 4-star hotel occupies a commanding position 772 meters above sea level in Palestrina, where Etruscan ruins and Renaissance architecture frame the venue's classical gardens.
Stone terraces and period architecture provide an authentic Italian setting without theatrical excess.
Beautiful location surrounded by olive trees and greenery. You enter via a gated entrance, which is very private and secure. We stayed here for 1 night. The main house was so clean. spacious and immaculate. The suite we stayed in over looked the rear of the property with beautiful views. The room we stayed in had a king size bed and there was another king size bed in the loft/attic space with a large ensuite. Very spacious, modern and clean. A very peaceful and tranquil location. Breakfast was included, for that we were told to go to a local coffee shop where they served us hot drinks and cake/croissant. The staff at the coffee shop were very friendly and helpful. Would highly recommend. A hidden gem.
