Convenient to Roma Termini the main train station, so very easy from and back to the airport. In a less touristy neighborhood, Monti, so some better restaurants and still walkable, 15 -25 minutes tops to most sites. Sparkling clean and very friendly, welcoming staff. Stayed here twice at both the beginning and end of our trip and would 100% stay here again.

This was very nice hotel near lots of good restaurants and tourist sights. We had a lot of fun at the roof deck bar (loved the negoni trio and limoncello spritz) and the bedroom and bathroom were nicely updated. The hotel offered a private pickup from airport for $75, which was very convenient. It was close to several bus, tram and subway lines, which made it very easy to get around!
View from to rooftop bar!
