Palazzo Colonna reviews: four listings, with two reviewed in full depth
Four of the sixteen listings on this site are about this palace. Two of them carry enough ratings to be worth taking apart page by page, and they get one each. The other two are newer, with two ratings and one rating between them, and they get a paragraph here. Every review page below was written from the listing’s own inclusions and from the lines the same page crosses out, which the platform draws in the same block.
How the written reviews and star ratings are used here
There are 188 written reviews across the catalogue. 184 are five stars, 2 are four, 1 is three and 1 is one. The listings themselves average between 4.0 and 5.0. An average of 4.5 would not come from a pool that is ninety-eight per cent five-star, so the two measure different things. The written reviews are the handful the platform shows at the top of each page.
So the two sources do different jobs here, and neither does the other’s. The star average and the number of ratings behind it are the only sentiment on this site, and the base is printed every time the average is. The written reviews are quoted for detail and nothing else — a garden somebody had time for and never found, a lift down to the apartments for a visitor who was overheating, a meeting point that was wrong on the day. Those are things people saw.
The four palace listings, side by side
| Listing | Rating | From | What its own page conditions or crosses out | Reviewed |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Rome: Colonna Palace Entry Ticket | 4.8 from 898 ratings | €31 | Apartments behind “(if option chosen)”; guided tour crossed out | Reviewed here |
| Rome: Colonna Palace Guided Tour | 4.5 from 207 ratings | €31 | Guided tour and the gardens and apartments both “(if option selected)” | Reviewed here |
| Rome: Palazzo Colonna with Gallery, Apartments & Gardens | 5.0 from 2 ratings | €48 | Nothing gated at all; live guide crossed out | No page — 2 ratings |
| Colonna Palace Private Tour | 5.0 from 1 rating | €600 | Nothing gated; hotel pick-up and gratuities crossed out | No page — 1 rating |
Those are the listings’ own per-person starting figures on the day they were read, and all sixteen on this site are priced per person. What the palace charges at its own door is a different set of numbers and a shorter one; it is on tickets, beside these.
The two listings with a review record
Rome: Colonna Palace Entry Ticket
The plain entry ticket. Admission, no guide, and the apartments sold as an option rather than included.

Rome: Colonna Palace Guided Tour
Guide on some options, with the guide as an option you select. Same starting figure as the plain ticket.
Read the review ›The two newest listings, and what they carry so far
The complete ticket rests on 2 ratings and the private tour on 1. Each has one written review behind it so far, both filed under the platform’s name for an anonymous traveller, so they are summarised here rather than given a page each.
The complete ticket is the only palace listing in the catalogue with nothing conditional on it at all — gallery, apartments, gardens and pavilion stated flat, with the live guide honestly crossed out. It is a better-built listing than either of the two reviewed here, and it has almost no ratings.What both listings do and do not carry is set out line by line on all tours, in a column.
The two critical reviews in the file are about the Pantheon
Of the 188 written reviews, exactly two are below four stars: one at three and one at a single star. Both sit on the same listing, and that listing is a Pantheon tour — one of the ten Rome things on this palace’s own page on the platform that have nothing to do with this palace. They are not quoted here, as they concern a different site. Which ten those Rome listings are, and what each is good for, is on all tours.
Where to go next
What the palace charges at its own door, against what the platform charges, is on tickets. Which of the two mornings to go on, and which door to use when you get there, is on Friday or Saturday — the single most useful decision on this site.

Frequently asked questions
Do these pages summarise what other visitors thought?
They summarise what people wrote. 184 of the 188 written reviews are five stars while the listings average 4.0 to 5.0, so the written set mostly reflects the reviews shown first on each listing. Sentiment here comes from the star average with its rating count printed beside it; written reviews are quoted only for concrete detail.
Which of the four palace listings are reviewed here?
Because they rest on 2 ratings and 1 rating, with one written review each, and both of those are anonymous.What each listing includes is on all tours instead.
Which palace listing has the most ratings behind it?
The plain entry ticket, at 898 ratings against the guided tour listing’s 207. It is also the listing this site’s booking widgets point at, and the cheapest of the four.
