My stay at Villa Agrippina Gran Melia was truly enjoyable overall, with lovely grounds and attentive staff making it a nice experience. The location is superb, providing a peaceful retreat close to the Vatican. However, I did find the room a bit small, particularly when accommodating luggage for two. Dining was a mixed bag; while some dishes were good, a couple of misses left me a bit underwhelmed.

The private garden suite was modern and stylish, though a bit cramped with two people and their luggage. The bedding was luxurious, but I wish the bathroom offered more privacy and had a safer bathtub design.

The food experience varied; some dishes like the Branzino sea bass were fantastic, while others, like the eggs Benedict and lobster pasta, needed improvement. Overall, it was usually good, but not consistently so.

I had a mix of experiences during my stay at Villa Agrippina Gran Melia.

My stay at Villa Agrippina Gran Melia was beautiful and included many highlights. the attentive staff and impressive breakfast options truly stood out. However, I was disappointed by the initial check-in experience, which felt overly sales-driven and unaccommodating. Thankfully, the overall experience improved as I enjoyed the lovely pool and gardens.

I had an very nice stay at Villa Agrippina, surrounded by friendly staff who made my visit truly nice. The location is unbeatable, just a stone's throw from the Vatican, and the pool area feels like an oasis in the city. However, I did encounter some noise issues in my room that slightly detracted from my otherwise blissful experience.

Rooms

While my room was well-appointed, I noticed it could use more storage space, and the low ceiling made it feel a bit cramped. The shower design wasn't ideal, as one side opened into the bedroom, which could be awkward for privacy.

Being so close to the Vatican was great, and I loved that the hotel felt serene and secluded despite being near major attractions. It involved a bit of uphill walking to get to shops or restaurants, but the peaceful atmosphere made it worthwhile.

I just got back from a week at Villa Agrippina Gran Melia and, honestly, it was a mixed bag. The location was perfect, just a stone's throw from the Vatican, allowing easy access to all the sights I wanted to see. The staff genuinely cared and were super friendly, which made my experience much better. However, the dining options were limited, and the poolside service felt a bit lacking at times, especially when it came to getting drinks. Overall, the beauty of the hotel grounds and the attentive service made up some for those hiccups.
