Villa Palazzola

Villa Palazzola, Rocca di Papa, sits above Lago Albano, so school groups, parish groups, retreats, and conference guests get a quiet base with lake views and space to gather. The building is a former Cistercian monastery now owned by the Venerable English College, and the setting is more retreat house than standard hotel.

Rooms include single, twin, double, triple, and family options, with lake-view and standard choices; some rooms have an en-suite bathroom and some use a shared bathroom. Piazza Venezia is set aside for families or small groups, with several bedrooms and a private sitting area with tea and coffee facilities. Breakfast is included, and lunch and supper can be part of a full-board stay. Guests have free parking, access to a swimming pool, a tennis court, gardens, a library, and public events at Palazzola. The pool is seasonal, open from spring through autumn, and the pool bar opens in summer. Walks through the woods to Albano or Castel Gandolfo take about 45 to 60 minutes.
