Hotel Villa Mercede Frascati

Frascati rises on a little hill, not far from the "Tusculum" ruins, the ancient town, destroyed by the Romans in 1191. The survivors settled down in Frascata (modern Frascati). The elegant villas, costellating the Tuscolani hills, were built by the élite of papal Curia, the powerful aristocratic families that loved to establish there their summer residences.
Villa Torlonia's garden (a public park since 1954) is one of the favorite place during the Summer period.
Aldobrandini's stables Museum, better known as “Frascatino”, have been opened up on 8th December 2000, renewed under Massimiliano Fuksias’ plan and design that kept intact all the old architecture, leaving the main structures and original wall materials. A really interesting experience among archeology, modern art and architecture.

The town Frascati (327 mt.) is renowned all over the world, thanks to the beauty of its period villas and its DOC wine. The town was built over the ruins of former ancient roman mansions, and, because of its mild clima and its closeness to Rome, it is visited from tourists coming from all over the world.

After a little shopping at the Frascati Point (just some souverirs of the beautiful city) you can also take a walk among the streets, rich in elegant boutiques and handcraft shops, tasting a fabulous handmade ice cream (we definitely suggest zabaione flavour). You may visit Villa Aldobrandini's gardens, where every summer we have an International Music and Art Festival (The Ville Tuscolane Festival). From the hill the view of Rome is matchless.
