Rome Municipio II – Parioli/Nomentano 4-star Hotels

I booked two standard 22 m2 rooms, they gave me one of perhaps 12 m2 which is very small with a tiny bathroom and one a little larger with a large bathroom, one in the opposite wing. Shameful . Very nice and helpful staff but…… they should respect the reservations and not to their liking. My complaint X the room was answered …. Sorry we are full…. I am speechless ….

The hotel is only a few hundred meters from People’s Square and 20 minutes walk to Rome’s main business centre and the Spanish Steps. Walk along the river bank for an hour or so to the cathedral, and it is especially convenient to go there. A lot of restaurants outside the hotel are more convenient to eat. We stayed here for six days, the old hotel room was small but the health was very good, the breakfast was simple but the basic things were there, especially the raw ham and all kinds of sausages I loved. Unfortunately, the elevator broke down for three days and climbed the stairs every day. However, it is also a good price-performance hotel in Rome.

When we arrived at the hotel the outside temperature was 26 degrees and our room, which was south facing, was very warm. I couldn’t get the air con to work so I popped downstairs to speak with the receptionist. She curtly stated that the manager had decided to switch the air con off. He was due in the following morning and she would ask him to switch it back on. In the meantime we were moved to another room that still had no air con but, hadn’t been facing the sun all day - still too warm but we had no choice. That evening I asked if we could have a drink in the hotel bar. We located ourselves on one of the settees and waited for the barman to appear. He didn’t. We subsequently discovered that he had actually been in the bar all along - it was just that he was permanently on FaceTime and his PC and we had assumed that he was a guest of the hotel. Not once did he look up from his devices to take breath let alone serve hotel guests. On the second morning I saw the hotel manager at reception and asked him when he was going to turn the air con on as it was set to be 26 degrees again that day. He said that he wasn’t going to. When I then said that we had purposely booked a hotel with air con he just shrugged. I asked him if he intended to update the hotel’s website to confirm that air con was not available and he simply said no. On the final morning my wife slipped in the shower and cut her head. I asked reception for the first aid box and took it to my room as, luckily, my daughter is a junior doctor. All of the medical supplies in the first aid box were out of date - some in fact dating back to 2008. Upon returning the box to reception my daughter suggested that they review and renew its contents. Overall a really disappointing experience. Rome is a fantastic city unfortunately, Albani Roma is far from being a fantastic hotel…

Very nice property, more on the modern side. I would definitely come back. It’s not that close to Rome Center but definetely worth what we paid. Comfortable bed, nice room, nice decoration.

It is situated in an area further from all the attractions. Trevi Fountain is about 3 km form the hotel. If you get a room facing main road it is too much noice. The rooms are quite small and there was some mold in the bathroom. But the breakfast was very good.

Firstly, if you read most other reviews they all sound very similar. The host (Giorgio) is amazing, rooms are great and overall everything is just fantastic about this place. This is simple to explain, it’s because it’s the truth. It was our first visit to Rome and Giorgio provided a list of recommendations, including the locations on a map. This was perfect, as we managed to visit 5 of the places that he recommended, all of which were simply amazing. Without these recommendations I’m confident our experience of Rome wouldn’t have been as good. The room was spacious and modern, with everything you could need. I loved the look of it and especially the lights (not something I would normally comment on). Breakfast was great too. Giorgio provided everything you needed in a continental breakfast, great coffee and fresh local pastries that were sensational. But more importantly it was a pleasure speaking to him every morning about our trip and anything else we or he wanted to discuss. I could go on about lots of things, such as the amazing old fashioned elevator or the location being brilliant, with it being close enough to walk to places, but far enough away from the crowds. But rather than going on any further, my final point would be that I normally stay in hotels and wouldn’t consider staying in a small location, like this, but with the personal service offered by Giorgio this has changed my perspective on this. Will I return to Rome? Yes. Would I stay here again? Absolutely. Thank you for an amazing stay.

At first, we thought we had a great deal and would be staying at a great hotel. The TripAdvisor photos looked great, the place looked clean in the pictures and it looked like it was a great deal. We ended up cancelling our entire trip which was meant to be Rome, Florence and then Milan and booking a next morning ticket home because the room had left me with such a major allergic reaction that I could barely see more than a foot in front of me. On the first night getting into Rome, we just arrived from the airport to try and get in the front for it to just be closed entirely having to figure out that we had to walk down this alleyway road to the bar and check in which honestly we thought was no big deal but we should have realised this was the first red flag. Then we were put on the first floor with a booking that had been in advance to enter the room and be hit instantly with such a strong smell of chemicals and perfume which was clearly trying to cover up the unpleasant smell which it didn't so it created this mix of intense chemicals, perfume and putrid smell. The bathroom wasn't cleaned properly and I could barely stay in there without my face starting to have a reaction so my partner seeing this got me out as quickly as possible and we found somewhere to eat and talk. We agreed that we would ask the reception in the morning if we could wash the sheets with a non-bio wash instead I had to see if that helped because before going for dinner we realised one of the perfume smells was coming from the sheets itself. When we got back we tried to enter our room for our key did not work until the 5th try and then we got in. This problem happened over 6 times and we had to go to the front desk half of those times to be let back in the room. I tried having a shower and while using the towel in the bathroom I was hit with another smell of some terribly cheap perfume completely drenching it. Water was coming out from both the bath and shower faucets and the mechanism to switch between the two wouldn't lock. Half an hour later my face swells up to a balloon, my partners booked our flight home and I'm sleeping in a hoodie with the hood up making sure not to put my face on the pillow because it's drenched in even more chemicals. We checked out the next morning first thing even though we were meant to be there for 4 more days and in Italy for another week. The last time I stayed in Rome I stayed in a hotel that was a lot cheaper and their sheets were 1000x better. We lost out on all of our holiday and money and I've never once experienced or left a bad review for a place or left a place the very next day. If you want to pay a large amount for cheap hotel accommodation this is the place.

We spent four nights in this lovely hotel, the staff are amazing, so friendly and helpful. We had a lovely room with a balcony which was fantastic to sit out on in between all our sightseeing. The hotel was super clean, and the room was cleaned to a high standard. We really enjoyed the breakfast , there was a good choice and it was a great start to the day. It was a little further away from the sights than we thought, however this would not stop us staying here again, lots of nice restaurants etc close by, we really enjoyed our stay here.

A lovely hotel in the beautiful neighbourhood of Parioli. The centre of Rome is about 15 mins in a taxi or a 25 bus journey. Standard rooms are very clean, comfortable and pleasantly decorated. High ceilings and good quality fittings give the hotel rooms a luxurious feel. Staff are always helpful and friendly. There is also a restaurant and bar on site. We had a great stay here and it was nice to escape the bustle of the city in the evenings.

Advantages: Although very biased, but cost-effective. The front desk service is very good, you can help to call taxi at the front desk, very convenient. Breakfast is very cheap, but there are very few options to choose from, but the breakfast in Europe, wherever you go, is nothing more than those things, and the category is a bit less. The surrounding environment is relatively quiet, but the school is a school opposite the day, slightly noisy, but it won't start very early, so it will not affect the rest. There is a balcony, the balcony is very large, sitting on the balcony and smoking a cell phone is very comfortable. Disadvantages: 1. The equipment is really old, the bathroom facilities are very poor, but they are all easy to use, just old. 2. The bed is not very comfortable, it seems that the two mattresses are put together, and there is a dividing line in the middle of sleeping. 3. The lights in the room are very dim, and the tables and chairs feel like what I was at home in the 80s. 4. The surrounding area is not very prosperous. The need to eat is very far away. The supermarket is about 1 km away. It is recommended that the selected small partners buy all of your accommodations in the supermarket one day. You don’t have to go back and forth. 5. It's really a bit biased. It takes about 10-15 Euros to get into the city. The cost is a bit high. Next time I would rather live in the city. In fact, the money for the taxi is coming out every day. But if you have an international driver's license and can rent a motorcycle in Italy, you can still consider it. personal suggestion
