Pros:

Frühstück, Personal, Lage und Sauberkeit waren sehr gut. Ich würde dieses Hotel wieder buchen, aber ein anderes Zimmer.

Cons:

Die Lage der Zimmers und die Aussicht. Der Weg zu unserem Zimmer 819 war etwas ungewöhnlich, erst nach unten, über enge Treppen und durch einen kleinen Innenhof. Für den Preis hatte ich eine andere Erwartung.

Pros:

It was right downtown Rome, the beds were amazing, the rooms were lovely.

Cons:

The room we stayed in was not very convenient. We were in the lower part of the hotel, we had to go down several steps, up several steps, almost hazardous. For the amount of monies we should have been put in a different room. My husband uses a cane.
Would I stay there again, properly not.

Getting to my room was unacceptable!

Very disappointing we spent this much money to not be satisfied with the hotel experience.
Pros:

We visited years ago and had an exceptional experience at this hotel. We particularly liked the roof top and chapel. We looked forward to the same this year, but..

Cons:

We were put in the basement, with NO view to Rome (which is the original reason we selected to come back to this hotel) or even a view of the neighborhood. We entered our room area from the parking lot - not even through the hotel. The room was not very well furnished. No couch or love seat, only a simple chair next to the desk. The room was rather sparsely decorated. Was it because we booked through Bookings.com that we were roomed in the basement?

Perfection
Pros:

Everything was perfect - service from staff, the luxurious feel in the room and throughout the hotel, the setting and the atmosphere. Perfect for couples. Very close to everything in the city, in a good area for food and strolling into the city. We loved that every night there was music in the courtyard for aperitivi. Classy, chic and everything we wanted and needed for our minimoon in Rome!

Cons:

That we didnt stay longer haha!

One of the most beautiful luxury hotels, located in Trastevere. Luxurious & amazing!
Pros:

Our stay at Donna Camilla was absolutely fantastic! We were coming back to Rome for our last night in Italy, and the staff upgraded us to the Crown Jewel suite, complete with a soaking tub, walk-in shower, living room, and a HUGE bonus, the 1000 SF private patio overlooking Rome and the hotel courtyard. To say we were blown away is an understatement, we were beyond thrilled to spend our last night here. The only downside was that it was only for one night!

Cons:

Everything was fantastic!

Hotel di grande fascino,personale gentilissimo, consiglio camera nel corpo centrale.
Pros:

Una struttura di grande fascino, ospitata in uno splendido ex convento del Borromini, con spazi comuni suggestivi e curati in ogni dettaglio. Molto piacevole anche il cocktail bar, con drink davvero ottimi. A completare l’esperienza, un servizio impeccabile: personale gentile, attento e sempre professionale.

Cons:

La camera, pur essendo correttamente indicata come esterna al corpo centrale, era decisamente al di sotto delle aspettative rispetto alla tariffa pagata. Risultava meno curata e suggestiva rispetto al resto della struttura, ma sopratutto affacciava direttamente sulla strada, e dava una certa sensazione di umidità. La differenza qualitativa con le camere del corpo centrale mi è sembrata eccessiva per un hotel di questo livello e per questa fascia di prezzo.
