"Given the sheer size of Villa Agrippina, A Gran Meliá Hotel, whose gardens and lawns and imposing façades are impressively out of scale with its mere 110 rooms, it’s remarkable that it occupies such prime real estate. Put it this way: the Pope is practically a neighbor. More specifically, it sits on a hill (Gianicolo, Rome’s second highest) above the western bank of the Tiber, a five-minute walk from Vatican City and not much farther from the cobblestone streets of Trastevere." - Tablet Hotels
