Fantastic location. Unique hotel right above famous Harry’s bar. The only tip I would give the management is to make sure your room safes are permanently fixed to something - ours was not and could easily have been picked up and removed.

The Shire is a great deal!

Amazing location and view of Borghese Gardens and Roman wall from our room. Lots of light and very spacious and clean room. Staff was helpful and breakfast was good. Excellent value for hotel in Rome. Will stay here again. Only hallenge was the lock on entry door at night. Our key card never worked.

Liked: Cleanliness
I was unable to sleep as there was extremely loud noise from the bar and streets below. In addition, the room as too hot and the staff was unwilling to help us make the room cooler. The hangers in the closet could only be reached if guests are well over 6’ tall. There was no makeup or other mirror available for such. The room was tastefully-designed, spacious and essentials such as the bed and bath were good. The service and hospitality were not commensurate with the price.

Overall property was ok. Room clean well maintained only a bit too small. Only one side of the bed had night stand no place to charge phone or put anything from another side of the bed. ?! Stuff very friendly helpful but a little issue with front door opening at first. Ok after few attempts. Breakfast served on cold side sandwiches with broiled eggs warm only. It could be more choices such as scrambled or egg whites. Just a suggestions. Thank you.

This small boutique hotel is hard to find, but it is worth the effort. The surrounding neighborhood is super charming. It is right across from the Borghese Area and close walking distance to Trevi and Spanish Steps. The staff was very helpful, they helped to book transport to our port and allowed us to store luggage while we we did some sightseeing before departure.
