Plan your stay at Hotel Il Gabbiano

Three-star hotel in the heart of Sabaudia, a short walk from Lake Sabaudia and the beaches of the Tyrrhenian Sea, with a panoramic terrace, bar and air-conditioned rooms.

Room types

Hotel Il Gabbiano offers four room types, designed to meet different needs, from the solo traveller to the family with children. All options are air-conditioned, equipped with flat-screen TV, soundproofing and a private bathroom with shower, hairdryer and toiletries, ensuring the same basic level of comfort in every room.

The differences mainly concern size and view: they range from the 9 sqm of the Single Room, designed for those travelling alone, to the 20 sqm of the Triple Room, ideal for small groups or families with a child. The Double/Twin Room with Balcony is the only one to open onto a private balcony, with garden and city views, while the other room types offer flexible layouts with a large double bed or separate single beds.

Location & what to see

Hotel Il Gabbiano is located in the centre of Sabaudia, a town on the Pontine coast known for its 1930s rationalist architecture and its proximity to both the lake and the sea. The property stands just 500 metres from Lake Sabaudia, one of the most striking coastal basins of the Circeo National Park, and about 2 km from the sandy beaches of the Tyrrhenian Sea.

The centre of Sabaudia, with its bars and restaurants, is just a stone’s throw away: Pasticceria la Dolceria is 100 metres away, the restaurant Il Pineta is 150 metres away, and the restaurant Al Giardino is a short distance away. Ulysses Coast beach can be reached in about 1.5 km, while Torre Paola Beach is 2.4 km away. The Circeo National Park, with its trails through dunes, Mediterranean scrub and wetlands, is about 5 km away. Those travelling by car will find the Villa of Domitian about 10 km away and the beaches of Terracina 25 minutes’ drive away; the nearest airports are Ciampino, 64 km away, and Fiumicino, 83 km away.

In summer, the area is perfect for days at the beach and walks along the Circeo dune, as well as boat trips on the lake and in the lagoon. In cooler months, the Circeo National Park is ideal for trekking, birdwatching and cultural visits, while the Circeo promontory and Terracina, with the remains of the Temple of Jupiter Anxur, remain interesting for a day trip all year round.
