Pros:

Excellent location, the staff is kind and helpful, the room is nice and clean. The double bed is huge and comfortable.

Cons:

Not a criticism, rather an observation: I would not recommend it with small children and strollers, because the places can be narrow.

Pros:

The hotel is nice! Situated near American embassy. It’s on the 2 nd floor of a building, so entrance is not obvious- it’s like an apartment- you have to go there by elevator. So inside about 10 rooms different size and level . Breakfast from 7.30 to 10.00
From Morning to noon there are a nice professional guy, don’t know his name, but he deed his job well!

Cons:

It needs a repair few things here and there! Shower and climate system needs an attention)
And about housekeeping- I’ve put a sign on a door handle, but in 4 hours all I have clean is two cups)

Beautiful room, perfect location, lovely experience over all
Pros:

The location is fantastic, with Harry’s Bar right next door. The view of the Aurelian Wall from our bed was a lovely surprise!

Cons:

We were in the room just next to the reception and we heard all the noise, the phone from out there . I also asked for an iron/steamer and they did not have one.

Pros:

There are only a few reviews since it’s a boutique hotel, but we were truly impressed by the location, design, and cleanliness. We were very happy with everything during our stay. The rooms were spotless, spacious, with high ceilings and modern decor. The breakfast was also more than sufficient and had a good variety.

We traveled with our 3-year-old daughter and stayed for 8 nights. We had a wonderful experience and would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a comfortable, stylish, and well-located place to stay.

Pros:

Localização foi o ponto que mais gostei.
Conforto do quarto.
Silêncio. Não houve qualquer ruído durante nossa estadia.
Gentileza da equipe, quando estavam disponíveis, dado que chegavamos do passeio mais tarde e já não havia pessoas para nos atender.

Cons:

De ter sido pega de surpresa com a taxa da cidade. Ganho em real, e de repente, aparece uma dispesade 85 Euros, na hora de ir embora. Foi bem desagradável!
Antes de reservar o hotel,comparei vários requisitos com concorrentes, e me surpreendi quando fui informada que nem todas as taxas estavam incluídas no The Shire.
