La Roqqa

Amazing Hotel. Nice staff, beautiful location

the rooms are very small and dark balcony really is just a Juliet balcony squished up next to others on each side

We had the most lovely stay at La Roqqa, such a great spot for couples and families alike! Visited for the first time in 2023 as a couple and had to come back with our newborn this year. Staff were so amazing and made sure we were well looked after, Italians are so great with kids. Gave us great recommendations for things to do and places to eat. As we travelled with a baby most meals were enjoyed at the hotel, food is delicious especially enjoyed the yummy breakfast. It’s probably one of the chicest hotels I’ve stayed at, interior is fantastic with designer pieces in every corner. The rooms are clean with everything you need and the bathroom was stocked with luxurious amenities. We were offered a cot for the baby and there was plenty of space for his pram and baby things. We really enjoyed our stay and left feeling relaxed and recharged!

We stayed at La Roqqa for 3 nights in mid-September 2024. What a terrific place. We will definitely return. It’s a very classy 5 star boutique hotel. Think: modern relaxed luxury. Our main takeaway was the attention to detail. Everywhere you looked – whether at the design of the lobby; the bedroom fit-out; the little extras – it felt like a group of people had sat down and worked out how to make it as good, high quality and stylish as they could. But the overall feel is relaxed and informal. This is not a stuffy place. The staff seem mostly relatively young but very smooth and friendly. Service is slick and very efficient. When we chatted to them, many of the staff seemed to have worked in international high-end hotels around the world but have been attracted back to La Roqqa and brought their expertise and training with them. Small touches – like remembering from Day 1 (and then us never having to repeat) our still/sparkling water preference, that one of us didn’t eat cheese, or what we ordered for pre-dinner drinks – really impressed us. It’s not a big hotel but our room had a lovely view over the town and harbour. Food was really great – especially the tasting menu – but breakfast also. Again, everything we ordered was of a great quality and beautifully presented. There’s no pool but the quick shuttle to the beach club takes less than 5 minutes – and the level of service and food was continued at the beach club also. Porto Ercole itself is really nice: a relatively small harbour town that’s an easy walk from the hotel. It seems authentically local and Italian, and not spoiled by an invasion of global brands/shops. The connection with Caravaggio is interesting – and it’s surrounded by a series of forts which can be visited (although we didn’t have time – so we’ll do so on a next visit). Getting there from Rome airport was a really easy drive.

A very relaxing stay in this beautifully designed and elegant hotel. La Roqqa is an oasis of calm and tranquility made more so by the wonderful staff whose attention and service always came with a smile. The beach club, effortlessly spilling from the vantage points of the gardens and rocks down into the stunning sea, was perfect for relaxing days in the sun and sea and enjoying chilled evenings.

Tolles modernes Hotel in Porto Ercole. Wir hatten ein Zimmer mit wunderbarer Terrasse. Das Frühstück auf dem Dach ist wunderschön, das Essen gut, der Service freundlich. 5 Minuten zu Fuß oder per Shuttle geht es zum wirklich fantastischen Beachclub. Dieser erfüll alle Italien Träume: Toller Strand, gutes Essen, wunderbare Aussicht, Sandstrand und Felsen (eine seltene Kombination), exzellenter Service. Auch sind kleine Hunde im Beachclub erlaubt. Das finden wir natürlich super! Wir werden sicher wieder kommen.
