Rooma hotellit lähellä Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith

Plussat: The Location for breakfast was fine. The breakfast was good. There eggs both scrambled and boiled. That was great. Bacon too - very good. Having different kinds of bread was excellent. A good variety of jams too.

Miinukset: The coffee was okay, but typically, served warm, not hot. Don't like that. The bowls for the cereal were too small. One staff member only was not friendly. The bed was not so comfortable. The shower was not great - not much water pressure.

Plussat: Central location was fantastic!

Miinukset: Room small and didn’t realise I was in the sister hotel so did not get to enjoy the roof terrace.

Plussat: Location was right in the heart of Vatican. Hotel was clean and front of house staff were helpful and welcoming.

Miinukset: Very noisy from back of hotel as drunken homeless people shout literally the entire night. Traffic is also very loud. Very intimidating to walk alone as a woman outside hotel area as men come up to you begging and looking you up and down to see what you have. Very persistent asking for money etc. Breakfast Waitress was quite rude every morning of our stay. Rolled her eyes when we asked for tea/coffee (which was not displayed out) and told my husband ‘No’ loudly and them embarrassed him on two occasions in front of other customers informing him it was finished despite the time being 9.50am and breakfast finished at 10am. Also the breakfast clock had its time changed earlier by 10 minutes.

Plussat: Good location, good staff and customer service, nice terrace. Breakfast was good.

Miinukset: Restaurant was a bit pricey, but was good.

Plussat: One of the best hotel views in Rome from the terrace. We also had a partial view of St. Peter's from our room window. The hotel was quiet and the staff friendly and helpful. The room layout worked for the twin bed situation we needed with room for the two suitcases, although we used the desk space for one of them.

Miinukset: The room was the smallest out of all our hotels during our vacation and was about the size of one of the guest bedrooms in my house. The layout was good for the space, so it worked, but was tight and the shower was very tight.

Plussat: I loved the rooftop restaurant with gorgeous views overlooking St. Peters at sunset. The reception people were very attentive and helpful. The location is great.

Miinukset: The rooms and beds were outdated and the interior lights or colors were bleak. The room was on the smaller size. For me, I value cleanliness and location. The breakfast was better than average.

Plussat: Location and the roof top terrace overlooking Saint Peter's basilica.

Miinukset: No

Plussat: The location to the Vatican can't be beaten. The staff was very friendly and welcoming.

Miinukset: Rooms are small and leave a lot to be desired. Hotel amenities are a little lacking at similar pricepoints.

Plussat: The roof terrace is just amazing. Wonderful view of the Cathedral, wonderful bar. The room was next to the bar but absolutely nothing could be heard.

Miinukset: There was not a separate conditioner for hair

Plussat: Location.

Miinukset: The staff could be a little friendlier specially the guy on duty at night.

Plussat: Excellent location, very friendly hotel and extremely clean

Miinukset: The pillows were in need of updating

Plussat: Location & ease of traveling round

Plussat: The quiet location but very out of the way a bit too much

Plussat: The window blinds.

Miinukset: That it was 25 minutes from all of the sights, by foot. The breakfast menu was limited.

Plussat: Staff were so friendly and made you feel very welcome. Thoroughly enjoyed the stay

Miinukset: Would be great if the water was replenished daily

Plussat: Excellent hotel,friendly staff,Breakfast was amazing room was extra clean and everything worked as it should.

Miinukset: None

Plussat: Nice clean and quiet

Miinukset: Metal keychain is old fashioned

Plussat: Room, Service, Luxury

Miinukset: Not close to restaurants nor any thing else. Needed to take taxi everywhere.

Plussat: The Hotel was very very comfortable and relaxing. Our deluxe room was fascinating. We relaxed and rested. Extremely beautiful breakfast. Elegant bathroom...

Miinukset: One of the disadvantages is not close to city center however roma is very big city and when you would trip first time to the city, you have to use taxi and city hop on hop off buses so as to discover city. I would expect some of the staff of the reservation office to be more concerned, warm, friendly, helpful.

Plussat: An excellent hotel located in a very quiet place full of greenery. A delicious breakfast! I can definitely recommend it to anyone travelling to Rome.

Plussat: This hotel is a charming Art Deco property in a residential area near the Borghese Gardens and National Museum if Modern Art. The staff was excellent! They arranged a car for an early morning pick up and even packed us a breakfast to go! We were surprised to find in our room a bottle of champagne to celebrate our wedding anniversary! This hotel is in a great location if you like to jog or bike in the garden.

Plussat: Beautiful and clean. Location being near the park I expected a quietness. Staffs in general were very kind

Miinukset: They put us on the 6th floor saying it is quiet there although there’s no elevator service for the last one floor. One night, however, there was a family with a kid in the room next to us and the kid started to cry around 21:00 and up until after 1:00 in the morning still crying and we couldn’t get a sleep and thus made a complaint. Next morning, one of the staffs told me that the kid got operated and the way he told me sounded as if I were not considerate but my point is they shouldn’t have told us the room on the top was more quiet than other floors. I have some problem in my knees and using the stairs is a little painful but I did not complain about it having been told we have a quiet room. The way the staff talked to us made us uncomfortable.

Plussat: It’s serenity , Art Deco , par excellent!

Miinukset: Not close to city. But that’s the benefit ! Close enough. But you will need taxis. And that’s ok

Plussat: The outside of the hotel looks good

Miinukset: The bathroom is very old, the bathtub doesn’t drain. The TV is tiny and can barely see it from the bed.

Plussat: GREAT HOTEL, CLEAN AND CONFORTABLE.VERY CLOSE TO VATICAN

Miinukset: EVERYTHING WAS FINE.I WOULD LIKE I COULD HAVE STAYED MORE DAYS IN

Plussat: Amazing hotel. An oasis away from the hussle and bustle of Rome. So close to the centre that we were able to walk everywhere. Staff could not have been better. Extremely attentive and helpful with a relaxed and friendly manner. Could not reay this hotel highly enough

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Oli hieno paikka. Varsinkin uima-allasalue oli erinomainen.

Miinukset: Hieman ehkä liian pieni huone.

Plussat: The pool and the gardens were beautiful,

Miinukset: It was very expensive for food and drinks.

Plussat: An absolutely gorgeous oasis in Rome

Miinukset: There is nothing to dislike

Miinukset: Way too expensive for what it is

Plussat: VERY friendly and helpful staff. Top notch spa. Great breakfast.

Miinukset: Air conditioning not strong enough

Plussat: Had room service and was excellant

Miinukset: Checking in was awful, room not ready until 4.30 pm when should be available at 3.00pm. No water in the room first night and attitude of Red Receptionist far from acceptable. It was my partners Birthday on the day we arrived, they put a small present on the bed then removed it the following day from the room. When we checked in we gave reception both Passports to copy, evidentally she failed to copy my partners , at midnight when we were retiring to bed reception insisted that I take it down to them so that it could be copied. We had been travelling since 3.30am in the morning not acceptable.

Plussat: everything was excellent

Plussat: The location was superb and having a beautiful garden and pool was really lovely and special. The housekeeping team, the staff by the pool and the check in staff were superb. In particular the fantastic housekeeping team who came twice daily and were a real treat. Our room was spacious with quality furnishings, luxurious bedding and a great shower (albeit tricky to get in and out of!) The public areas of the hotel were great too especially the terrace.

Miinukset: We paid a significant premium rate (for us) specifically for a city view. I’m not sure what I expected but we actually had a view of the pool. It was lovely but not what I was expecting. We had stayed in the j w Marriott in Venice last year and I think we were expecting the same standard but the Gran Melia didn’t quite have such a luxurious feel. However it was still excellent. The music around the pool was pretty grim but that was probably just a personal thing and guest service staff weren’t particularly helpful a couple of times. These really did not take away from it being a beautiful hotel.

Plussat: Pool on a very hot Rome summer day

Miinukset: Extremely expensive even for small items which is off putting - 16 euros for a glass of wine ... 37 euros for breakfast means you feel the need to go out for most things which is a strange for a luxury hotel and a missed opportunity. Service for lunch is also extremely slow - 45 mins for a wrap and a club sandwich

Plussat: Hyvä sijainti.

Miinukset: Jotkut piti melua yöllä monta tuntia.

Plussat: The staff were amazing! So helpful to plan our days and tours.

Plussat: Great breakfast. Fun massage chairs.

Miinukset: Wifi could've been better. Pigeon poop all over the shutters.

Plussat: Walking distance to Vatican, Specific staff members Daniel and Giuseppe very helpful, including directions, recommendations/suggestions for dinner, and transport. Close to Metro station, close to restaurants, food markets, shops. Quaint elevator that the kid liked to ride in. Quiet inside and outside. Breakfast was ready before posted times, so helped get an early start.

Miinukset: Mini-fridge did not work and took several requests to fix/replace. Having one key card is a little annoying, but being that it's used to control the electricity in the room, there has to be only one in order to make the energy saving effective.

Plussat: The hotel was nicely decorated and very clean. The room included a mini fridge. There was a lift to the hotel and secure access. Daniel at the front desk was an excellent, making sure all of our needs were met and having a list and map ready for us of all the sites to visit. The location near the Vatican and metro stops was wonderful. We would stay there again.

Miinukset: The only complaint, although a very energy conscious thing, is that the air conditioning would turn off when not in the room, so it was a little warm upon our return. We could control the air conditioning when we in the room and it would cool back off.

Plussat: The location was great and the rooms were well equipped.

Plussat: very well located and pleasant people

Miinukset: breakfast and reception could be better

Plussat: Excellent location, near St. Peter's Basilica. the staff were fantastic, room very comfortable. the breakfast was good, just missed having some kind of fresh bread. But we loved our stay. we want to return for excellent quality-price!

Plussat: Location and price was very good

Miinukset: Breakfast could be better. They always took very long to bring new bread.

Plussat: Location was good.

Miinukset: Breakfast looked to be leftovers. room had little storage for belongings. customer service over the phone was unwelcoming.

Plussat: Close to the Vatican! Good breakfast.

Miinukset: The air con wouldn't work in the middle of summer. Bathroom was cramped and the water flow wasn't the best.

Plussat: All others

Miinukset: deficiency of vegetables

Plussat: Location location location

Miinukset: No lift so you had to climb two and a half flights up each time to reach your room and one up and then one down to reach the reception or the breakfast Nowhere during booking was mentioned Noone was there to help us with luggage

Plussat: Frontdesk man in the morning shift

Plussat: The location, the staff, the facilities basically everything about this place is fabulous. Great breakfast to

Plussat: Very satisfied with the whole hotel service starting with employees. Very good explanation on arrival for visiting all the places while staying in Rome. This place is in the historical center with huge shopping street and it is walking distance for mostly all the nice places (except Colloseum). If I come back ever to Rome I will choose again this place. I recommend this place to all!

Plussat: • Very nice room with a huge jacuzzi • Breakfast has quite many options. Coffee was great • The staff was very friendly and helpful Definitely if we go back to Rome we will book again in here

Plussat: Nice clean modern room

Plussat: Loved the hospitality of the Staffs. Loved the breakfast tea. The room was very neat and had a relaxing jacuzzi bath.

Miinukset: The location was a bit crowded according to my taste. Car parking was also an issue. Had to park a bit far from hotel and walk with all the luggages.

Plussat: We really enjoyed the double shower, comfy bed, hot tub and free mini bar.

Miinukset: The walls weren’t sound proof so you could hear noisy neighbors!
