10/10 Excellent
"Cleaning crew was fantastic!!! Our room was cleaned everyday. The front desk was always helpful and friendly, and got us checked in a little early upon our arrival, which was really nice after 24hrs of travel. The daily breakfast was a highlight for sure. The only thing I was disappointed in were the gym hours they don’t open until 7am so makes it hard to get a workout in if you want before catching early trains, tour buses, etc…….Also I was unaware it wasn’t included for being a hotel guest. It’s an additional 9 euros a day to use the gym and it says nothing about that on the advertisement. Besides those two things it was a great stay and great location."

"El Hotel tiene 150 años de fundado y está impecable, es una mezcla donde tienes mobiliarios de época con un servicio impecable. Las atenciones excelentes, el ambiente en el patio interior, sobre todo cuando hay música en vivo, buenísimo. Los desayunos son buenos y cenamos en el restaurante y fue muy bueno tanto el servicio como la cena en sí. El vino que pedimos buenísimo. La ubicación excelente, con línea de Metro en la esquina de la manzana del hotel y muy cerca de la Terminal de trenes Roma Termini. Excelente Hotel por donde quiera que lo mires."

"Excellent location in Rome! We loved our stay at this hotel in Oct 2026. The location was perfect, right down the "road" from the Trevi Fountain, less than a block away. The staff was friendly. We had drinks at the restaurant, street level, great for people watching. We especially loved the rooftop bar for snacks and drinks. The man working there was fabulous. Our bedroom was comfy after a day of touring Rome. The breakfast was more than we could ever eat. We felt safe the entire time. What a great place. I would stay there again! It was very clean and modern. Shops were nearby, literally on the same block. Restaurants were everywhere, we never had to look for one."

8/10 Good
"Somewhat quaint and odd layout. The check-in is located down the block and then you have to walk to the property but they send a bag attendant to help. The property is somewhat odd - lights in the hallways turn off randomly while you’re still there and moving. The elevator was retrofitted into a stairwell so it is very small and slow. The bedrooms are accessed off a common area which has a kitchen and sitting room which could be helpful. The bedroom was small but so are most guest rooms in Europe. The bathroom looked newly renovated. However, all this being said, the location - right off the piazza Venezia - is right in the heart of all of Rome’s major sites and makes for easy walking to tour. And for the money it’s a very good value. Hotel staff was very helpful with getting cabs and arranging airport transfer also."
