We stayed here the night before departing on a cruise from Civitavecchia. We were intrigued at the…read morefact that Rome had a beach nearby and read a lot of great things about it. Not to mention the hotel pictures were beautiful and the location is very close to the cruise port. We arrived early and 2 of the 4 couples in our group were able to check in. This allowed us to freshen up and store our things between the two rooms. All of our rooms were very modern - the hotel is modern overall - and each room offered a different amenity. Ours had a nice balcony with a door both in the bedroom and bathroom, we had a street view. Our friends' room had a lovely beach view and another friend's room also had a balcony. The room was neat and clean and had a stand alone shower, which we were happy about. The only negative for me was the small elevator, equipped to carry 2 people with bags and possibly 4 without. It is also extremely slow. As is common in Italy, there were no face/washcloths at this hotel - although they offered hand and body towels - so bring your own. We ate at the restaurant which was lovely - fresh seafood and on-the-water seating. On another note, the beach itself is just ok, but it was a refreshing time there. The public beach is very rocky, private beach is a little better. Hotel is in a great location with a secure gate that is locked after dark. Staff was extremely friendly and made this a wonderful stay. I would definitely return.

I thought it was a really nice hotel, right on the ocean. It was smaller, which is normal in Europe. However, it was clean and nice for the night that I stayed there. The views were really great as well! There was a restaurant attached, which had an outdoor patio area. It was perfect to eat lunch right on the water. The staff for the hotel and the restaurant were very helpful. Had a really good experience and would recommend it.

Nice place to stay prior to our cruise. We came in a couple days early, showed up at 11:00 AM and…read morestaff were there. They informed us that our room was ready early so we could crash from a long flight from Vegas, Ft Lauderdale, New York, to Rome. We went to bed and didn't get up till the next morning. Jet lag sucks, lol. We went to Pizzeria del Getto. Post review for them too. Would recommend and use again. When you come, pay in cash if possible. They prefer it.

My boyfriend and I enjoyed our stay here at Villa Susanna, a cute B&B located in Civitavecchia. We…read morestayed one night before our 7 day Mediterranean Cruise with Royal Caribbean. Found this spot on Trip Advisor and would like to share it with my fellow Yelpers. We were looking for our hotel which was walking distance from the train station but had a hard time finding it due to lack of street signs. Don't try finding this place at night unless you know where you're going. My boyfriend and I walked around for quite a bit with no luck so we walked back to the train station and were able to get a cab to take us there. Again, it's hard to find at night so cab it instead. Our room was cozy and we were able to sleep well. There was no blow dryer, so make sure to bring your own and an adapter. Unfortunately, I blew out my hair straightener which left me without one for about 3 weeks while traveling throughout Europe (but that's a different story) ha! Just make sure your straightener has dual voltage and you'll be fine. Make sure to have Euros. When we paid, the preferred method of payment was in cash. The owner Rosanna was very sweet and asked how our stay was. Very hospitable. She even offered us something to eat before we headed out. We had to leave to catch our ship, but thanked her for her hospitality.

We fell into the same trap, although it seems they are erasing reviews on other sites. This hotel…read morewas ranked 7/10 on other sites and not a single mention of this bait and switch tactic. Got the same deal. Booked a room months in advance, then they tell you there are no rooms two days before you get there, and sent us to a condemned part of town. No hyperbole. The "sister hotel" should have been shutdown, and may have been until we got there. No refund, no offer, just lies. It seemed like they rounded up anyone associated with Virgin (employees and guests) and threw them out. Everyone here is Virgin staff, maybe a few guests, and the best part is this place is worse than a hostile. The staff tried to help but only so much you can do with an abandoned property. Avoid getting ripped off. Don't pay in advance and it's still a dice roll. The hotel looked beautiful. Wish we had gotten to see it.

This hotel is very outdated which would be ok but all of the hallways and rooms smell like mold and cigarettes and the air conditioning is worthless. The hotel description claims AC but they do not work very well at all. The rooms are constantly hot and humid no matter if the AC is on, which makes for a terrible night sleep. To top it all off the staff at this place is very rude and couldn't care less about their guests. I did not expect much from a 3 star hotel, but wow this place is just awful!!! Just read through all the reviews on other websites and you'll see were not the only ones that experienced all of this. Do yourself a favor and find somewhere else to stay trust me!!!

I booked my room through one of the big booking companies online for a double room. Once I arrived, they upcharged me for a second person...even though I booked a double room. They wouldn't budge, and it pissed me off how they handled the situation. Not only that, they wanted to hold on to our passports for a while until they entered the information. I don't know about you, but I'm not going anywhere with someone else keeping my passport. That little document is my ticket to the rest of my vacation -- not to mention getting back home. So, I waited in the lobby while he took his sweet time getting to it (while the rest of the group was already off getting drinks down the street). Bottom line -- it's a pretty decent place. The attached restaurant is horrible. Wi-fi leaves a lot to be desired (but it's free). Nice room. We got a good night's rest.
