Beautiful, meticulous design that made us happy since the first second we got in. Helpful staff, very comfortable rooms. Quite location with free connectivity to the city center, and walking distance from the Vatican. Short sides: breakfast is good but maybe low-staffed, so things that ran out took time to be refilled. Also, shower only has a body soap- turned - shampoo, you need to bring anything else you normally use.

We love staying at this hotel. It was in the perfect area just outside of busy parts of Rome. It was walkable to some great restaurants and coffee shops and also there was a kids toy shop right at the end of the street. The check-in staff was friendly and helpful and super playful with our children at check-in. The space is very well thought out with a game room downstairs an excellent restaurant and room for the kids to run outside. Their rooftop was spectacular easy to access with a great menu and not overcrowded. The space in the room was bigger than most rooms. We’ve stayed in in Rome with excellent amenities is clean space and great showers.

I chose this hotel because it was one of very few accommodations in Rome with a pool, dry sauna and steam room at a reasonable price. I am so glad I found this hotel with Expedia's help! It is a true gem. The restaurant options on site are fabulous! All staff, from those working at the reception/reservation desk to those working in the restaurants, were very attentive and friendly. We are sure to stay at this hotel chain again if the opportunity arises in the future!
