Categories

Cleanliness
9
Multiple reviews call the rooms and hotel clean and well maintained; overall housekeeping is consistently praised.
Service
9
Staff are frequently described as helpful, friendly and responsive (helped with birthdays, pre-arrival communication); a few mentions of one rude or arrogant staff member lower the score slightly.
Location
9.6
Repeatedly highlighted as exceptional (right by the Spanish Steps, great views, close to sites, taxis and restaurants) and is the standout strength.
Room Quality
8
Mixed feedback: some guests enjoyed large, comfortable rooms and views, while others found rooms small, lacking storage and reported plumbing/shower issues.
Amenities
8.6
Rooftop breakfast terrace, complimentary water and nearby restaurants/taxi rank are positives; limited rooftop bar service and reliance on neighboring bar slightly reduce the score.
Value for Money
7.4
Several guests explicitly called the hotel expensive or not aligned with price (apartment allocation mismatch, perceived high cost), so value scores below average.
Food and Beverage
9.2
Breakfast is repeatedly described as amazing, fresh and delicious with good choices and a pleasant terrace setting.
Overall Experience
9.6
Overall sentiment is strongly positive with many recommendations, special occasion stays and unique atmosphere noted; minor negatives did not outweigh the generally excellent experience.

I highly recommend this hotel! It has an unbelievable location and the staff is a delight!
Pros:

The hotel is extraordinary! The room was spacious and comfortable and the bed was perfect! Breakfast was amazing! Everything was fresh and delicious. The staff were very helpful and kind. I highly recommend this hotel. The location is unbelievable - right outside the Spanish Steps, a stunning church, and a short walk away is a beautiful park. My daughter and I stayed here for our birthdays and it was truly special.

A fabulous location, staff were great,
Pros:

The location was superb, the room clean and the staff were extremely nice.

Cons:

The room had no storage, it was not for a couple with two big suitcases. The shower had either a waterfall head or a hand held which didn’t work. The toilet started running the first day, we told the front desk 3 times and it was never fixed, it was extremely loud and made sleeping difficult and a constant spray of water on the seat. Also advertised a roof top bar, there was a space but you had to walk downstairs to reception to order a drink and they bought it in from a bar next door.
