Magione Papale Relais

We booked this hotel for its location just outside L'Aquila for convenience of parking out of the city centre and because it was a Relais chain hotel. The hotel was fine with its facilities and location etc but the details didn't really come up to our expectations. The room was fine but we soon discovered that some of the lighting and power points didn't work and after a visit from the onsite receptionist we discovered that one of the electrical trip switches was down - this should have been checked before our arrival. It took quite a while to connect to the hotel's wifi but we eventually succeeded to then also discover the main light in the bathroom was probably only about 15 watts and very dim, so much so that we had to use our mobile phone torches to see what we were doing in there! Not a good start. The food in the dining room was as good as we had expected it to be from the website but the ambience was distinctly lacking as so few people were checked in and we never ate dinner in the same location - once in the small dining room, once in the banqueting hall as there was a private party in the dining room and once in the breakfast room on our own as there was a wedding in the banqueting hall and in the dining room. We felt very secondary to other events being staged in the hotel and rather pushed around to suit other bookings. Breakfast was fairly acceptable and fulfilled our needs. Overall we were disappointed with our stay at the hotel, although the room was serviced daily the level of service could have been better and more welcoming and we did really feel somewhat neglected in favour of other group bookings and a wedding party. A lesson to be learned here is to perhaps enquire upon booking whether there is a wedding going on during your stay and perhaps then choose another hotel?

Great accommodation, very clean and with kind staff. Breakfast was awesome! I really recommend it!

Great selection for breakfast. Only complaint was small shower stall.

L’hotel è situato appena fuori dalla città e dispone di un buon parcheggio, ideale per chi mi sposta in auto. Le stanze sono comode, un po datate e attrezzate dei comfort essenziali. La colazione è limitata nelle proposte e presenta un pó di prodotti confezionati.

Bel posto dove soggiornare. Camere molto pulite e con tutti i comfort, bagno comodo, il tutto in una struttura che è in una zona tranquilla appena fuori L'Aquila ed immersa nella natura. Colazione ottima sia per i salati che per i dolci e le bevande. Personale moto gentile.

Bellissima magione completamente ristrutturata con buone finiture. Camere pulite mobilio da rivedere in alcuni punti. La struttura è in via di espansione con una nuova ala e delle strutture per sport all’aperto. Servizio colazione molto cordiale ma buffet veramente scarso in proposte e qualità in una terra dove fare di meglio ci vuole veramente poco basterebbe utilizzare prodotti locali. Nessuna proposta salata calda.

Hotel mit viel Platz, aber leider ohne Flair und misserablem Personal. Leider über 30 Min den Berg hoch in die Stadt. Der Pool entpuppt sich als ungepflegter Mückenteich. Leider keine Bar auf dieser Seite des Anwesens. Es war alles verlassen!

Un vecchio mulino ristrutturato, una piscina, un maneggio. Il bosco alle spalle, la città di fronte. Un posto bellissimo, camere ben organizzate, personale super disponibile e ben disposto verso una clientela vegana. Ristorante buonissimo! Una struttura perfetta per visitare L'Aquila, essere a due passi dalle tante bellezze abruzzesi e godersi la tranquillità della natura!

Struttura ampia pulita e silenziosa Il nostro soggiorno è andato benissimo Tuttavia avrei preferito che fosse valorizzata la zona piscina (biolago) che sembrava un pochino abbandonata a se stessa e invece merita tantissimo I giochini dei bambini meriterebbero una pulita o una parziale sostituzione però sono stati molto apprezzati Buono il ristorante L unico piatto davvero da dimenticare era il calamaro Tutto lo staff molto gentile e competente!
