“Nice Hotel”

we stayed as 2 adults and 1 x child (9years old), and stayed at the hotel for 4 nights, we were very satisfied with the hotel and staff could not have been friendlier, however, if we went back I would invest in a travel kettle and take tea, coffee etc as no brewing facilities and with a room service charge of 6 euro per person we found that a little expensive for a cup of tea in the morning, what I will say is order the "American Breakfast" in the morning, order the full list and at 29 euros its a bargain as if you eat out it will cost you a fortune - food in Italy is very expensive (6euro per small coffee!!) - but all in all we would recommend this hotel, lovely stay and the pool was a real bonus for our 9 year old.

Area recommendations
We stayed in the heart of Rome so the area was perfect, well within walking distance of all the main attractions, approx 10 mins slow walk to the Fontaia Di Trevi (Trivi fountain) - and about 15 mins to the Pantheon etc. We would highly recommend this hotel's location.

“A great hotel in a great city.”

Altogether a good experience. The hotel is a little bit of a walk from most of the sights of interest, but we were able to manage with our nine year old. Took an easy to find taxi when we got too tired to get home on foot. The hotel was very nice and worth the few cab fares.

“Had the time of our lives...”

We were so pleased with this hotel. We had stayed at the Westin Palace in Milan, so we hoped this hotel would be just as wonderful. We were upgraded to a small suite when we checked in. Our room had two terraces, two chandeliers, a marble bathroom and a walk-in mirrored closet area. It made our holiday experience even better. The employees at the hotel were very helpful in recommending restaurants. All of their recommendations turned out to be really good. I kept a journal of where we ate, what we ate and what wine we drank. I did not want to forget one thing about our time in Rome at this excellent hotel.

“Although I got a good deal, I kept feeling I overpaid for past glory. Don't stay there.”

The hotel is very well located and the building is extremely beautiful. The staff was lazy there are always like five persons in the reception doing nothing. The carpets were dirty and old, and the room was not clean. The Westin or Starwood chain should do something to remedy the situation is a shame to have the hotel in such a poor condition in all aspects.

Area recommendations
Via Veneto is near all the main attractions but you get to be a little bit out of the crowds.
Dining
Dine anywhere all the restaurants are great. The Strega next to the Excelsior has a very good risoto.

“Hotel heaven”

See above for the review

Area recommendations
Find a hotel close to the spanish steps. That is the main hub of activity and almost every thing is within walking distance. My hotel was on the via veneto a short walk to the steps. A beautiful area. You get the feeling that you are safe here. However, a tourist was out at the spanish steps at 1 am smoking a cigar and he was mugged by 3 youths and beaten quite badly and robbed. So, use some common sense while in Rome.
Must see
Vatican City. You don't need to be Catholic to really enjoy it. St. Peter's is jaw dropping! Take a night walking tour. It was fun. Can't remember the tour group though.. Hop on Hop off buses are great! Book a time to get into the Borgese Museum. Very cool!. I enjoyed the Colliseum and I really enjoyed the tour of Pompei. Others have also suggested the tour of Capri. The area is beautiful.
Shopping
Just walk
Dining
Just right of the spanish steps if you are facing them is a square there is a pizzaria called Leonardos and next to that is a Ristorante called Alla Rampa. The food was exceptional and I loved the service. Ristorantes' don't usually open for dinner until 6 or 630 pm but it does get quite crowded. Try the tenderloin with porcini mushrooms and the rosemary potatoes or the Spagetti alla Checa. It is fabulous!
Nightlife
Didn't do any clubbing. Walked a lot and ate Gelato. The very better gelatoria is Alla Palma. It is right near the Pantheon and they have like 50 choices. Great place.

“will never go back and will never recommend”

DIRTY BED LINEN WAS THE SURPRISE ON OUR FIRST NIGHT even though we checked in in the afternoon. After our complaint to the front desk we were offered a bottle of champagne with an excuse note from the manager but this was not enough to help us regain confidence. The room is not well maintened and the furniture is dirty. The room daily cleaning and preparation was always incomplete. We always felt uncomfortable staying in this hotel especially that we could not trust cleanliness anymore. Having dinner in the hotel restaurant, we could not eat what we ordered because it was nothing but salt. We were really disappointed because nobody would expect this in a 5 stars hotel in Rome with such an expensive room rate.

Via Veneto, Rome, Italy: Made famous by ‘La Dolce Vita’ film in 1960, the Via Veneto is going through a glamorous renaissance. Bars, restaurants, chic hotels and boutiques all vie for attention in the street which coined the expression ‘paparazzo’ – the surname of the photojournalist in the film. Nearby, the Spanish Steps are the place for lovers’ trysts, shopping, and honing the Italian art of ‘dolce far niente’ – idling and people-watching.
