Not a safe city if you have kids trace with you.
Pros:

It was clean and modern

Cons:

No tea or coffee facilities in the room. Air conditioner in first room didn’t work. Phone in second room didn’t work. Once we stepped out the front door, we didn’t feel safe and there was a build up of rubbish on the streets. We cut our time in Naples short due to a lot of external factors. Not a very good experience.

Rome in January
Pros:

I did my research & booked The Pace Helvizia Hotel.

I wanted a central location, close to all of the iconic landmarks at a price that I was happy with.

This hotel did not disappoint, we could not have chosen a better place.

I did read past reviews & my take on it is simply that I was not expecting a modern contemporary feel with sharp decor. What we got was ornate ceilings, draped curtains & traditional inlaid wooden furniture- it all added to the experience.

The staff were friendly & welcoming, the breakfast was very good & the hotel was clean.

There is a roof top terrace with amazing views across the city, we could see St Peter’s Basilica which looks stunning at night.

I would definitely go back & would recommend Pace Helvizia without hesitation.

Do NOT stay here
Pros:

Cleanliness and facilities are unacceptable:
– Extremely low water pressure and very slow drainage, causing flooding during showers
– Broken water pipes in the room, never repaired
– Visible dust and black debris on the bed
– Skin itching after sleeping
– Breakfast plates not properly cleaned

If these alone don’t make you leave, read carefully what happened next.

I paid for multiple nights and was already staying in the room, but the hotel sold my room to another guest while my stay was still ongoing.

Because my reservation was split into several bookings due to a flight cancellation, the hotel used this as an excuse to manipulate the situation:
• On the first day, night staff told me I must change rooms the next day.
• The next morning, the manager said I did not need to change rooms.
• That same evening, I returned to find my room door blocked with a note telling me to go to the front desk.

At the front desk, the night staff openly admitted that my room had already been sold to someone else. I was told I “had to move.”

I asked to change rooms immediately.
They said the hotel was full and told me to move the next day instead, meaning I was expected to accept being displaced because of their mistake.

Then it got worse.

I was told that if I wanted to continue staying, I needed to pay extra starting that very night — even though:
1. I had already paid for my stay
2. The hotel had already resold my room

So the room was sold twice, and I was asked to pay more for it.

Communication was hostile and unprofessional. The night front desk refused to answer calls, hung up directly, and repeatedly said “I’m busy.” Management kept changing their statements and offered only one type of “solution”: whatever was easiest for the hotel, not the guest — including asking me to leave my luggage at the front desk during the day with no room provided, despite payment.

This is not a misunderstanding.
This is mismanagement, overbooking, and pressure placed entirely on the guest to absorb the consequences.

By the way, I stayed for three full nights, and no one ever came to fix the broken water pipe — not once, all the way until checkout.

This is absolutely not a four-star hotel.
There are many better options nearby. Avoid this place.

Pros:

The location not bad ( but not the best)

Cons:

The room was not clean at all. There were ants and dust on the floor, and the bathroom was also dirty. Additionally, water flooded from the bathroom.
The breakfast was rather poor; the bread was old and there was very little variety. It was also not suitable for vegetarians or for people who require halal or kosher food.
The location is about seven minutes from the fountain and around fifteen minutes from the Colosseum.

Good.
Pros:

Location excellent. Concierge great. Value for money excellent. Close for a lot of major sites, felt safe as a sole female at all times. Room better than expected from pictures when I booked I think my room was upgraded to a double. Hearing was set too high for me especially the underfloor in the bathroom so had windows permanently open as unable to alter the temp. The hotel is on a very busy road in the mornings but not unbearable. The good out weighed this. Breakfast simple but I’m happy with a good coffee so was fine. The beds are not the best but I still slept due to exhaustion from all the walking. Fridge with mini bar in room which was reasonably priced. plus kettle with tea and coffee. Great. My only criticism is although room was clean I think a deep clean would make a difference ie around basin taps were needing a scrub , tv very dusty and remotes dirty. Tv didn’t seem to be working. But these issues are minor would definitely stay here again.
