Go see it you won’t be disappointed

After doing the historic centre and fighting through the crowds this place is a welcome respite. The park is sort of run down and uncared for but the villas are stunning. It’s difficult to describe how superb these houses are. The owl house was a...More

All the buildings closed on monday

Parc itself is not so special. It was very brown and didn't look that well cared for. All the buildings were closed because it was Monday and that isn't clear before you arrive.

Worth 2 to 3 hours visit to see the splendid villa, all the rooms, the art gallery and the gardens. Mussolini's residence not so well known for many years because of ostracism of the Italian political parties. A human touch, a splendid art collection by...More

Mixed feelings

Nice art collection but overall the place is fairly run down. Does not keep much memories of its historical past.

A Surprisingly Beautiful Park

We had been meaning to visit Villa Tornolia for years but never managed to sqeeze it into our schedule. This time we finally made it and were pleasantly surprised. We were expecting a Borghese-esque managed public park, but instead Villa Torlonia is much more "wild"...More
