Reviews of Villa d'Este

I visited the garden this summer both during the day and at night - and both time the place impressed me greatly. The garden, by size, is actually not that big, but the designers managed to squeeze in so many water features without making visitors feeling cramped. I agree with the previous reviewer's comment that it is not a garden to see the variety of plants, but rather a place to experience the spectacular display of baroque garden splendor

Wow this garden rocks.... Its just even better than I ever imagined, the classical proportions of the paths, terraces and water is so relevant, it holds this masterpiece together.
A stunning oasis of cool and calmness in this hectic world.

One of the most spectacular gardens in terms of water features. The exuberance and elegance beats anything I've found anywhwere else. Although not a garden to admire plants, they provide a satisfactory structural element to admire the water elements, ornanented paths and site lines.
An absolute must to visit.
Go on to Sibilla ristorante for a wonderful lunch.
