Staff were outstanding. Helpful and attentive. We received a free upgrade and our room was fit for a king, over looking the Forum. Roof top terrace is exceptional and breakfast was wonderful. The air conditioner struggled a bit but it’s a 600 year old building. Worth the stay and I would return any chance we get.

Fantastic hotel! Great location: right next to Forum and minute walk to the colosseum. Nice shopping nearby. The staff were very helpful as well, arranging taxis and private transfers. The food at the restaurant for breakfast and dinner was great! The best part is the rooftop bar! Great strong drinks reasonable priced with a fantastic view!!

Excellent location, very good customer service, clean and newly renovated bathroom and shower. Shower room had drainage problems. Lack of amenities. Squeaky broken bed box spring. The building used to be a ministry and around several hundred years old converted to a hotel around early 1970’s according to the customer service. Our room wasn’t large enough even with the European standard. The was large may be for one person not the two. Over all if I come back to Rome again I’ll definitely stay here.

Location, location, location! The views from the rooftop bar are exceptional! And proximity to all the ruins is fabulous. The property interior is a bit dated, but we appreciated it’s charm. Our room was clean, but very small. It worked for us since we didn’t spend much time there. We also appreciated the slippers and toiletries. The front desk staff was very helpful. Our only complaint is the breakfast. I would grab a cappuccino for the view, but skip on the brunch! It was very underwhelming with few options.

We stayed in April for 4 days and loved it. The closeness to main historic attractions can’t be beat. Staff was friendly and English spoken by all working there. The rooftop restaurant is amazing in its view and the food was good but not very Italian. They had a Piano bar playing old American hits. Didn’t feel like a Rome dinner. But the view was wonderful up there. Great dining all around the area. We will always remember this hotel fondly.

The breakfast is held at 5th floor which has a beautiful view of the Forum n all. Very Nice!! And the staff is so courteous and amazing. loved that. But that’s where niceties end! Low on amenities, old and small rooms, plumbing issues etc etc etc. We stayed just for a night so it was ok but we couldn’t imagine staying there for more days

My stay at Hotel Forum was absolutely excellent from beginning to end. The location could not be more perfect—right in the heart of Rome, with stunning views of the Roman Forum that made every morning and evening feel magical. The hotel itself is charming, elegant, and full of character, while still providing modern comforts.

The staff was truly outstanding—always friendly, attentive, and willing to go the extra mile to make sure guests feel comfortable and well taken care of. My room was spacious, clean, and beautifully maintained, with a very comfortable bed that made resting after long days of exploring the city a true pleasure.

Breakfast on the rooftop terrace was a highlight of my stay. The variety and quality of the food, combined with the breathtaking view, created an unforgettable experience that I will always remember.

Overall, Hotel Forum exceeded my expectations in every way. It combines an unbeatable location, great service, and wonderful amenities, making it the perfect place to stay in Rome. I highly recommend it to anyone visiting the Eternal City, and I would definitely choose it again on my next trip.”

Not worth the price

This hotel was in NO WAY worth the price. There was a lack of service from the moment that we entered. Our bags were brought in from our taxi, but, were not offered help upstairs. This is notmally not an issue, but, this is an over $400 a night. The room was comfortable enough, except for the serious lack of air conditioning and poor wi-fi service. Again, I realize that this is a historic hotel, BUT, for the price they are charging, it does not seem worth it. There were absolutely no perks or updates to account for the price. The location is close to and overlooks the Forum, but, earlier in this same trip, stayed in the same area (without the view) for a third of the price and far superior service. I do not recommend this hotel. Although, the restaurant IS special.

Also it is not made clear that the majority of the rooms are going to facing another building, therefore you do not have a view. Also was almost charged for a bottle that was noted as complimentary in the note left in the room.

The staff went out of their way to ensure we had a wonderful stay. They were extremely accommodating that we were traveling with a baby. We had the most amazing view from our room and they ensured we had enough space for a crib. The view of the forum from the hotel/ bar/ restaurant is truly spectacular.

The breakfast is nice & the breakfast staff is amazing. The property has an old charm, which I like but there is an awful smell in the elevators and hallways.
