This was a perfect overnight accommodation for us to stop and visit the Paestum Archaeological Park, traveling up from Sicily to Naples. The room was just what we needed. The staff were super kind and helpful. They offered a nice dinner in their restaurant, and breakfast was included the next morning before we walked just a few minutes down the road to the park and were permitted to leave our car there so we would not have to pay additional parking fees!

We arrived early at the hotel and we're allowed to park at the hotel while we walked to the ancient Greek Temples which were an easy walk from the hotel.
The hotel had beautiful grounds and a nice swimming pool.
The room was nice and clean, but simple.
We atedinner and it was delicious, as was the morning breakfast.
All in all a great stay and we would do it again. If you are going to see the Temples, it is worth a stay.

Well located and relaxing
This is a beautiful hotel in the countryside with lovely rooms, a great dining area and a swimming pool. Yet, it is also very well located and a very easy walk to the Greek Temples and the beach. The dinners they served were excellent and the staff was extremely courteous and helpful. It is a very relaxing place to say.

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 property is charming. The pool area is beautifully laid out. We spent a week there and found the staff to be very polite and helpfull and the owner is on site and is also very helpful with lots of help and informaton about the local area. The rooms were clean and had everything we needed.The Villa Rita is within easy walking distance of the archaeological park and the beach. I would go back there like a shot.

Conveniently located in traditional villa
Pleasant home like atmosphere in traditional Italian country house, a change from standard hotels. Within walking distance of the Greek temples & museum, a major advantage on busy weekends. Very good breakfast. Air conditioning & refrigerator not very cold. Nice high ceilings in rooms.

This hotel is a true gem! It is like living in a beautiful art gallery and garden combined!! Regarding the complaints about having to pay a measly €3 for a pool cap, no complaint should be made. Wearing a pool cap is standard in Italy and it’s purpose it to keep things cleaner and more sanitary for everyone!! I highly recommend this place and definitely would go back in a heartbeat. Couldn’t be more convenient to the archeological park.

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.

This is a very tired place. It needs significant repairs and maintenance. The room and bathroom were both very small. Every staff member that we encountered was grumpy and acted like they hated their job. The atmosphere was really cold and uninviting.
Although our stay was in the year 2025, at check out I was asked to stand at reception while the clerk prepared our bill. She shuffled a pile of papers, picked numbers off various papers, hand wrote them on a blank page, added the numbers, and presented the page to me. I was stunned!
We do not recommend this hotel at all.

Villa Rita - great pool.
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.
