Alasandro was very helpful when we checked in. The morning staff provided a wonderful breakfast buffet which included omelettes if you wanted one. The view from the property is amazing! We had dinner on property. The restaurant staff was friendly and the food was excellent. The bed was comfortable and I appreciated that extra pillows were provided.

It is hard to describe the amount of satisfaction that we enjoyed our entire stay with The Life Hotel in Marcelina. The characteristic that stands out the most is simplicity. We are not rich people so we usually choose to stay outside of large cities to avoid obscene prices for everything. This resort is around 40 minutes away from Rome. We chose to rent a car because I believe in my driving abilities. I truly enjoy the thrill of a good drive. If you can remember the movie The Italian Job with the little mini coopers racing through small alleys in villages, that is what my drive everyday was like. So for that I was thrilled. The little town of Marcelina is truly intoxicating. The room was simple yet accommodating. The French doors that opened to a terrace overlooking Rome was a big part of my mornings. Not to mention the view at night was breathtaking. As if that wasn't good enough they have an excellent restaurant where some of the best food we had was being made. We had his and hers massages and manicures by their spa technicians who were amazing. Then we had dinner with a great view through four to ceiling glass windows. The view overlooked Rome and Marcelina. The staff was very accommodating yet gave us privacy. The language barrier was easy to overcome and we would recommend this stay for anyone looking for maximum relaxation. The only thing I would wish for is a hot tub and better pool. Alessandro was the best host. Thank you for everything. Nick and Tonia Grassi.

Chambre M1 : - Poubelle débordante d'ordures des occupants précédents. Signalé à l'accueil, et j'ai mis la poubelle devant la porte dans le couloir. Le lendemain matin à 10h elle était toujours là, pleine. - Mitigeur SDB qui ne tient pas - Wifi qui ne passe pas plus loin que la porte, donc impossible depuis le lit - Internet avec débit ridicule et qui coupe toutes les 5 minutes - Pas de TV connectée - Petit déjeuner composé de produits hyper sucrés sous emballage plastique. Par contre le café est très bon ! - 1er matin nous avons pu avoir du pain de mie industriel, mais le 2nd matin, pas de pain du tout ! Alors qu'il y a un restaurant dans l'hôtel. Et cerise sur le gateau : Nous avons alors pris des biscottes (emballées par 2 dans du plastique). 1er sachet, que des miettes. 2nd sachet idem. Je demande alors si je peux en avoir d'autres utilisables. Et là la serveuse me dit que je manque de respect envers la nourriture parce que j'ai ouvert 2 sachets sans les manger !!! Hôtel vraiment bas de gamme, avec prix haut de gamme... Seul point positif : Super vue par le devant le l'hôtel. Il ne faut par contre pas regarder l'arrière...
