The hotel had amazing finishing, art and historic preservation. I believe I saw that the building is on the historic register.
The rooftop terraces are amazing. Great views, beautifully maintained - with garden and other decoration. A really peaceful spot up there. The owner
/operator was friendly and helpful. We plan to go back next time we visit Rome.

Small hotel unique hotel and clean, room was small but with a nice old style to it, bathroom could have been bigger, there was a stocked mini bar, 2 good restraunts right by the hotel and more around the block, colosseum a couple blocks away, street aree could be cleaner, still a nice little place to stay.

Fabulous hotel, very funky decor and very comfortable. Staff were great and very helpful. Breakfast was a treat every morning. Walkable to all the sights and restaurants.
Because we were in the heart of everything and go to bed early you can hear the people on the street in the wee hours of the morning. We were in amazing room, which was situation at the back of the Hotel that backed onto the street behind the hotel.

This is a family owned and run hotel. They provided us with not only excellent facilities but the service was way above and beyond. We mistakenly left items in our rooms safe and the owner Richard went out of his way to get them back to us after we left. Highly recommend their hotel and will definable stay there again if we make it back to Rome.

It was a very nice hotel but they had four people in one room with no fan or air conditioner unless asked, and even when asked sometimes wasn’t on. It is in a great location and a very clean hotel with beautiful furnishings

This is a great location within blocks of the Colosseum. There was a plethora of dining options and availability for drinks. The only downside is we were on the terrace garden, which is essentially on the rooftop and it was four flights of stairs Every time you had to come in and come out. Also, the tub/shower we had was very high up in order to get into it, which was not convenient. The hotel staff was very nice and helpful. FYI don’t lose the key!

This is a very nice hotel which is located about two blocks from the Colosseum. Our room was beautiful. It was well appointed and spacious for European standards.The area has nice restaurants. And the breakfast at the hotel was great. If you’re looking for a place to stay down in this area, you can’t go wrong with this hotel. One word of advice if you would like an airport shuttle, be sure to contact them well in advance. However, the express train into Roma termini provides a pretty easy access to the hotel either by walking if you don’t have too much luggage or taxi if you do.
