The hotel seems secluded even though it's right in the centre of Ponza with busy streets either side. The grounds are small but tastefully planted and maintained, with driftwood sculptures and garden chairs. It's only 10 minutes' walk from the ferry terminal but they run a shuttle to and from it, which is convenient if you have heavy luggage or... More

The Grand Hotel Santa Domitilla is truly a gem of a hotel with a fabulous spa and gorgeous grounds. If you are looking for a classy retreat with the amenities to go with it - look no further. Santa Domitilla is the only hotel on the island of Ponza that offers, two pools, A/C and cable TV in your room,... More

I spent three days at the hotel with my wife and two small children. The hotel has a very nice architecture that suites the island and has a nice garden and pool (too deep though for small children). The breakfast is ok but rather limited (only one type of cheese). What we really did not like were the rooms and... More

I am Italian but live in the US and was looking for a great place to spend my 2 weeks of summer vacation in Italy with my extended family. We selected the Hotel Santa Domitilla on the island of Ponza (off the coasts of Rome). It was an amazing experience. The thermal pools at the hotel are a dream. The... More

Ranks as a an outstandingly romantic hotel worth a visit to Ponza just to stay there. And the grotto swimming pools are indescribably amazing. Perfect place to go with someone very special.

Although we read the reviews prior to making our reservation, I decided to disregard them, mainly because the hotel appears in the Karen Brown guide to hotels in Italy, and she made it sound wonderful. When we arrived to check-in, the Front Desk staff told us our room number, gave us the key - and pointed. The gruff man who'd... More

We stayed here for five nights in August in a room with a sea view at circa €300 per night. The rooms are tiny and you can hear everything in the corridor or the room next door. The shower leaked water all over the bathroom. Furthermore, the sea view was there if you stood upright on the terrace and looked... More

The quality was not in line with a 4-star hotel, but more reflecting a 3-star hotel. The room was small and not very clean, the bed for 2 small (190*160 cm), the terrace was not facing the see, the breakfast quality and service was poor, price was very high.

We stayed in this hotel in Ponza for one night at the end of June 06. The room was about 240 euros for the night , so naturally we were expecting something a little special. We were very disappointed with the very average room and bathroom, and only a garden view. We have paid 80 euros in the past in... More
