I travelled here in August and the hotel is a great location. Air conditioning is really powerful and easy to use! A must for Rome in August! Just up the road from the Barberini Square and Spanish steps. Most places are within walking distance. Free maps at reception with tourist spots marked. But it’s far enough away that it’s quiet at night. Some of the hotels closer to the centre looked really noisy as there are bars and cafes outside, this hotel is not. Reception staff are so helpful and show you where to go. There are a few restaurants nearby which you can walk to safely at night. Komi sushi and La Lampada are both really good. Come il latte 24 Via Silvio Spavente is an amazing ice cream shop which is located really close. It’s in the top 10 in Rome. Reasonably priced, try it out . The room is good sized and very clean, not luxurious but not bad either. Bathroom is clean and good sized. There’s a large day bed which can be made up for a child. Breakfast is on the 7th floor and is great. All the usual continental options and cereal tea, coffee, juice (weirdly prune and pear but no orange?) also toast and scrambled eggs and bacon. Also you can order waffles and omelettes although there is a charge for these. The views over Rome are brilliant to see in the morning. It’s not too hot. In the lobby is a bar where hot and cold drinks and alcohol and a few sandwich and salad options. There is a roof top bar open from 5pm which is lovely, cocktails are pricey though. Its pseudo antique but not old or run down. It’s quaint and bijou. This is not a luxury hotel. It’s 4 star so it’s reasonably priced and I think really really good value for money. But it’s got everything you need for a really good hotel in Rome. The staff cannot be faulted, reception staff are particularly lovely. Great English speakers and so so helpful, smartly dressed and professional. I can’t fault this hotel, we had a wonderful holiday and the hotel was ideally placed for us. We walked down the hill to all the attractions in the morning and got taxis back. Although the hop on hop off buses stop just down the street and it’s also on a bus route. We didn’t try the metro. So all in all a great place to stay in a brilliant location.
