La Dolce Vita at The Shire hotel
Pros:

Our stay at The Shire Hotel was truly wonderful and we enjoyed every moment of it. The location on Via Veneto is absolutely perfect, a beautiful and still elegant district full of the spirit of F. Fellini and his famous film La Dolce Vita.
Our room was very comfortable and we especially appreciated having the only room with a balcony, thank you for that. The reception staff were always kind, welcoming, and ready to help with anything we needed. Right after our arrival, we received a complimentary bottle of wine, fresh water was regularly replenished, and upon request we were even provided with a kettle and tea. On another day, we were pleasantly surprised with a complimentary fruit platter. These thoughtful gestures and the genuine care from the staff made our stay in Rome even more memorable.
The room was cleaned every day and we highly appreciated the excellent cleanliness. We also had breakfast included and, as people who have travelled extensively around Italy, we found the breakfast selection absolutely sufficient and very tasty. We would also like to mention the large and very comfortable bed. Even though our room faced a busy street, the windows insulated the noise very well and we slept peacefully every night.
Thank you for the excellent service and hospitality. We will definitely return to this hotel on our next trip to Rome.

Lindo hotel en Vía Veneto, excelente ubicación y alejado del bullicio
Pros:

La ubicación. Está en Centro histórico pero retirada del bullicio y las multitudes. Sin embargo se puede llegar a pie a distintos puntos turísticos. Personal muy amable y dispuesto para ayudar. Habitaciones amplias, cómodas y lindo diseño

Cons:

Podría ser mejor: colocar reposa maletas. Ampliar la variedad del desayuno.
