Old ambiance

Location is great! Near everything you would like to get to in Rome.
Room we got is dusty. They don't clean floors under the tables & chairs. I can only imagine under the bed. Our shower don't drain well, & there's a gap between the door shower, so the flooring gets wet when you use the shower. Staff are accommodating. When we asked for plugs, they lent us, including electric fan. The view up the breakfast floor is excellent. Food is great. I didn't mind the flaws, it comes with the age of the hotel. But a few changes will be better.

This is a beautiful old hotel, full of classic Roman charm. The staff are incredibly polite and helpful and there is a deep sense of pride in their service. That said, my room, although beautifully lit and spacious, smelled heavily of dust and it was hard to breathe without having the windows thrown wide open on a very cold night. There was an issue with a clogged shower drain the first night I was there, and that was addressed immediately.

The location is very convenient and the view from the 6th floor is beautiful. 6th floor is the breakfast area tho and only accessible during breakfast hour 7-10.
This hotel is definitely not 4 stars worth. Looked very outdated and old. They didn’t even have showergel and conditioner. And the available shampoo was of very cheap quality. The room was very noisy. I could hear guests in the next room flushing the toilet and taking shower.
And most annoying part: every time you leave you should give key (yes actual key) to the reception. And they don’t allow visitors!!
I don’t recommend it !

False advertising

Bin in room had not been emptied or had garabage. Per description of Hotel amenities the rooms were air conditioned that was not the case. One specific gentleman at reception was rude and did not allow my friend to come up with me to my room. Free breakfast no where to be seen either. Overall a bad experience would not stay there again. And would recommended to anyone.

Tiring experience

Tiny - claustrophobic
Air conditioning did not work - impossible to sleep
Mattress - torture
Mini fridge did not work
Noise level high due to traffic with all windows closed. We had to open the windows at night to cool down a bit and then close due to a lot of noise. Got hot quickly. Open windows and so on.
The room was run down overall.
The bathroom was ok. The only highlight was the breakfast-good selection and fresh.

The location is right by the Borghese gardens. 20 min walk to Pantheon. 30 min walk to Colosseum. 40 mins walk to Vatican. If you like to get to know a city by walking, this place is great.

The info about the room set up on Expedia was incorrect, I booked a room, where the website indicated it had 1 twin bed, but in the hotel they explained to me that it's actually two single beds. But when I asked if it was possible to find a bigger bed or move two single beds together (I sometimes twist during sleep and was afraid to fall off), they very kindly moved me to a double room.
The hotel and the room I got were in a good condition, loved the location. Staff were very kind and accommodating at the check in and check out
Breakfast is not much, but okay, and I loved the views (breakfast are are on a terrace area on 6th floor)

Feels like a homecoming to me!

I have stayed at this hotel many times over the last 35 years. She is a \"Grand Old Lady\". I love the location, very convenient, the wonderful breakfast even during these times of a pandemic. Some decorations may seem outdated, but this is still our favorite hotel when stopping in Rome. I have taken small family groups here, and also friends. Lots of restaurants near by and public transportation, and just a 2 minute walk from the famous Vis Veneto, and the Borghese Gardens!
