The actual Hotel rises from the foundations of a large Roman Villa which dates back to the II Century B.C. and owned by the Roman Emperors. The Counts Mastrobuono, began the actual construction of today  Villa in 1750 to be used for their summer vacations. In 1820 the Villa was turned into a small hotel. The 17th century frescos of the original Villa were restored along with other works by Ernesto and Giovanbattista De Curtis. Between 1905 and 1907, William Waldorf Astor, captured by so much beauty and in reminiscence of the Roman Empire, built the “Villa Pompeiana. This being almost an exact copy of the house of the Vetti in Pompei.
