By far my favorite stay in Europe so far. The hotel is beautiful, with a prime location. My room had a spectacular view and was very spacious. Equipped with any/all amenities I needed. The staff is phenomenal—very warm and hospitable, did not hesitate to assist me in any way. They were always eager to help and went out of their way to communicate that. 10/10 will stay here again—I’ve already recommended to my friends!

Santa Maria Maggiore Boutique Hotel
Nice little Boutique Hotel by Santa Maria Maggiore. Room was big enough and comfortable. The big plus is the terrace bar with beautiful views of Santa Maria Maggiore and the Rome skyline. Perfect for sunsets.

We liked the location the most. It is right near the heart of central Rome. For example, the Coliseum is about a 10-15 minute walk away. Lots of places to eat and grab souvenirs or drinks, etc..the room was nice as well. The rooftop has a great view. But the small basic Italian breakfast is a huge ripoff at 25 euros each. So I paid 50 euros for a scoop of scrambled eggs, a croissant, a few small pieces of fruit and a juice and coffee for my daughter and I. Of course they are completely taking advantage of you here. The room was pretty overpriced at something like 330 euros as well, without a balcony or a view other than a large window that showed you the back of a direlect building and large rusty AC unit. We found a lot more for less at other hotels in both Rome and Naples.
