Roman gem

Elegant hotel, rooms compact but beautifully decorated, fun to explore, excellent hot/cold breakfast. Located close to underground metro and within walking distance of Vatican City. Staff are business-like and understand English well. I had some difficulty, though, understanding THEM and I think I wore their patience a little. But I would definitely consider staying again when next revisiting Rome.

We enjoyed the location of this hotel near the metro and Borghese FmGardens, Piazza de Popolo,etc. Friendly staff. Decent free breakfast. The room was clean; but tiny which is the reason for the 4 stars.

The Bad: Much closer to a 3 star hotel than a 4 star hotel. Italy now has a surcharge for all people staying at 4 or 5 star hotels, which I didn’t know until it was too late. 7.5 euros per person per night, as of March 30, 2025. Also, although I wasn’t on the 1st floor, you have to walk across the first floor every time you want to get between the lobby and floors above the 1st floor. This makes it VERY understandable why people who did stay on the 1st floor hated their stay. Rooms are adequate, but tiny. I was on the 4th floor, and our shower only had a glass panel for half the shower, so every time I took a shower the floor got pretty wet. Terrible design. Staff were decently helpful, but not overly friendly. Elevators were very small and rickety, especially the elevator that goes between the 1st floor and other floors. It can’t fit more than 3 people. The Good: Great cleaning every evening of the room. Great location. Provide accommodation to and from the hotel if you request it (although it’s a little pricey at 75 euros one way from the hotel to FCO airport, or the other way around). However, the transportation was a nice Mercedes. Everything else was pretty standard. Overall: Fine hotel, but probably not worth how much I spent on it, and hard to justify a 4 star rating.

The property is in a great location. Close to all the sites and some lovely restaurants along with way. We spent 4 days at the hotel as we started our trip and came back at the end of the trip before flying home. The service at this hotel is 10/10. The staff is so pleasant and accommodating. They arranged airport transfers - dinner reservations they were so helpful with any and all enquiries. I will definitely come back again and recommend your hotel to our friends and family. My daughter had already booked !!

We just came back from a week in Rome and this hotel was amazing! We stayed in the room with the terrace and everything from check in to check out was perfect. I saw some reviews about the elevator being small, having to take 2 separate elevators, not clean etc but I found those reviews to be ridiculous. It’s an older European building so yes it will be a little different than what you find in the states. It was clean, housekeeping was great, comfortable bed and the concierge were all super welcoming and polite and accommodating. The bartender was phenomenal and I had one of the best bloody Mary’s ever! Breakfast was great! They had some “American” options. The hotel is about 30 min walk from the city center but the area around it is quiet, there’s restaurant options, a farmacia near by and a super market. Overall I’d stay here again!
