Hotel Villa Rita

This is a hidden gem near the Paestum ruins. We so enjoyed everything about the hotel - proximity to the World Heritage Site, the beautiful swimming pool, the excellent food (not included), the cleanliness of the hotel, and the friendly, helpful staff. This is a generational family business and they take pride in the quality of the hotel and the service. Relaxing, lovely.

This hotel is a gem! Not only is it in Paestum, one of the important sites for Greco-Roman history, it is a beautiful, family-run knock-out of a place to stay. I recommend it highly.

Lovely hotel, perfectly placed for Paestum archaeological site. Room was good with air conditioning and breakfast had to be pre-booked. Swimming pool was welcome although we had to buy a hat to wear in the water, 3 euros, and 1 euro to hire a towel. Didn't realize until afterwards that there was a drying rail outside our window to hang wet costumes. Staff were all very friendly and organized a taxi back to the station (walked from station on way in but it was a decent walk, 20 minutes, and very hot) and printed out some seat reservations for us. The only gripe concerned the need to change our towels when we were only there for 2 nights so absolutely not necessary. Also the room was tidied on the first morning, when the new towels arrived we guess, which we weren't expecting nor wanted. The room was messy and things like passports were left on show so was a bit cross that someone had been in. I know it was done with the best of intentions but we were unaware that this would happen. Maybe have some notices to hang on the outside of the door saying room cleaning/ towels not required. Most hotels try not to change towels as often as they did for environmental reasons which we encourage. Apart from that, this family-run hotel was very good.

I can't say enough about the location (walking distance from the Paestum ruins) ], the friendliness of the staff and the property. Pool, plenty of outdoor, great food, free bikes. Outstanding experience for our family.

Beautiful family run facility, spacious, calm and quiet. They have a swimming pool and soccer field which was great for our kids. A short walk from the Paestum historical site with several dining and bar options. Very convenient location and overall a very pleasant stay.
