Overall Ratings & Reviews La Riserva di Castel d'Appio

Molto bella la vista anche se la struttura è un po' datata. Staff gentile e ottima cena al ristorante dell'hotel.

Charming hotel with an excellent restaurant, wonderful views, great pool and very friendly staff.

Service was good, be mindful this hotel is at the top of what is essentially a mountain. The drive up and down is actually scary to the point of wanting to avoid coming and going from the hotel. However There are no shops or restaurants within walking distance of the hotel therefore it can feel a bit isolating. Taxis are £25 euro each way into the local town. The food and drinks at the hotel is expensive and you will be charged 5 euro for a bottle of water which seems crazy and roughly 8/9 euros for a class of wine. The breakfast was lovely, lots of options and service was very good. The main attraction to this hotel is the view which is stunning. The pool area is also very nice and clean. It is overall pretty expensive but you are paying for the view. It is a family run establishment and the staff are always friendly and accommodating. We read the previous comments about the drive up to the hotel before booking but really could not appreciate just how unpleasant this was until we had to do it ourselves and how restrictive it made our stay. Overall nice hotel if you can stomach the drive. Pretty expensive. The mattress was also pretty hard and uncomfortable but got used to it after a few nights.

Unbelievable beauty, and wonderful cuisine. On a hilltop Pool looked great but weather was too cool. Welcoming staff. Photos online Do not convey the uniqueness.

A bit off the beaten path but the views were stunning, the room was spacious, the service was outstanding, and breakfast was solid too. Yes this is an older property that could use a refresh, but for the money it can’t be beat. Note the map on Apple didn’t take us all the way to the property but there are signs along the way so keep driving - gated entry to parking right off the street near the top of the hill - can’t miss it.

Great views of the coast from the hotel.

Incredible place. The view is breathtaking. The room with the ocean view and deck is beyond words. Would definitely stay there again.

Extremely helpful and friendly staff Beautiful views Would definitely go back and recommend

This family owned property was one of the finest experiences we have had on our trip. The views were spectacular, the restaurant was the level of service was extraordinary. I highly recommend a stay here. It is well worth the journey.

the property offers stunning views of the coastline. the access road is down right dangerous and narrow. the staff was extremely nice, in season, this hotel outdoor dining must be amazing, food was good, breakfast buffet was great. The hotel could use a fresh coat of paint and some renovations, it looks a little rundown in places (grounds)and some areas of the hotel seem to be condemned. overall, we enjoyed the view and calmness of the place, the graciousness of the staff and the amazing views.

The only negative for us was the drive up to the hotel. The road was windy, steep and slim. This made the hotel a bit further from town than we would have liked, but nothing that was a huge deal for us (Just a note if you planned to venture into town). The hotel & staff make up for that minor inconvenience.

Overall just ok stay. Our was very old and dated, almost felt like sleeping in my clothes. Pool area run down and need remodeling. Service very friendly and fast. There is no other place to eat but their restaurant and food was not bad. Worst part is to get there….you need to be very skillful driver to climb that mountain all the way up.

What a view! You get a unique vantage point from this hotel that you typically don't see. They're also very friendly, have excellent food and the building and property and gorgeous! Highly recommend!!

It is quite an adventure to get to that hotel. Tiny, curvy and steep road takes you to a top of the hill where the hotel is. Once you get there, the view is absolutely spectacular. This is a family run hotel and you can tell that in 70s-80s it was on top of it's game. Now it is bit outdated but still extremely charming. The food is great, service is nice and the views are amazing.

Amazing place hosted by Antonello and his Mother Tosca- great restaurant with fantastic waiters Emilio and Ilario, also Mahmoud- enjoyed their pets specially Eva- great views of Monaco from the terrace

Charming spot with incredible views! Very good breakfast and dining options

Beautiful location, fantastic staff, and a large room. We recommend this place to anyone.

Clean hotel with excellent views and free parking. The restaurant at the hotel serves great food, but way overpriced. The location is not the best, because it's on the top of the mountain with steep 15 minutes drive one way up and down

The hotel stays in old style which was fine with us. Two deceptions: hot water comes very slowly in the bathroom; we had to let run water for 5 minutes to have hot water at correct temperature. The dinner and the breakfast could be improved. Compared to previous 4 places we stayed, this hotel was too expensive for what it is.

A wounderful place to stay if you are visiting Monaco. Great facility with fantastic staff. Highly recommended!
