Would go back In order to see all the 'attractions' it is best to sightsee on foot. Also if visiting Vatican City, if the Pope is in residence, he blesses the people in St Peter's Square at noon on Sundays. Wonderful experience.

Nice quiet hotel for a stay in Rome Hotel was a good standard and clean, rooms were comfortable and staff were all courteous and helpful. Eating in the hotel is a bit of an expensive option, and there areen't many alternatives in the neighborhood. Lepanto subway station is less than 10 minute walk for easy access to centre of Rome, but it stops at 9pm so you'll need to walk (30 minutes or so) or get a taxi after that, unless you can work the buses out as they go till midnight.

very basic accommodation - not 4 star This hotel is clean and is in a good location for most attractions. the metro station is a 10 minute walk away and stops at all the major landmarks. the roof terrace has a fantastic view across the city but the food served for dinner is expensive and poor. we were still hungry! Breakfast is also poor with little choice and cold tea and coffee! there were no facilities to make a drink in the room either. Our bed was two single beds pushed together which is not comfortable. I would not stay here again, not worth the money.

I was generally quite pleased with this hotel, and I'd recommend it to anyone wanting good fascilities for reasonable prices. Also, it's situated in a pretty part of Rome, away from the hubub.

Never go back - not a 4 star! Breakfast was extremely poor, no toast or choice on cereals (only 3). Me and my husband are both vegetarians and I was very suprised that a 4 star hotel did not serve the basics! The service was very poor and staff were rude. We had two single beds made into a double bed which was very uncomfortable. It is also little far from the main tourist attractions. I would go back to Rome but would not stay at this hotel again!

A very nice hotel in a good location. Can be a bit pricey though, it really depends on the time of year when booking.

The staff at reception was ridiculously unhelpful. First they could not find the reservation and acted as though I was an uninvited guest at their house. Then they recommended a bad supertouristy restarant, were not helpful when answering general queestions and were surprisingly useless for a hotel in this price range. The valet guy was nice though.

Very nice place. We will go back again. The hotel was nicely situated in a quiet area but close enough to Piazza de Popolo where you can find all the shops and restaurants. All but one staff member of the hotel was nice and helpful but I do not recall the name of the rude staff member who worked the front desk. But the rest of the people were very kind. The room was very clean and comfortable. We will go back to this hotel and I would recommend it to my friends.
