Very historic We had a lunch with our group at the restaurant of this hotel. It was absolutely great experience, and main reason is the building and the interiors which makes you feel like the Renaissance times. Food was good as well - not the best one but quite ok for lunch.

Gone bankrupt We had a booking here in June and have just heard from our travel agent that it has gone bankrupt and closed. Fortunately we have found somewhere else! Hope this beautiful historic building is looked after and put to good use

To be avoided.... We stayed for 3 nights at the recommendation of a family member who highlighted the restaurant. For 2 of the 3 nights, it was booked out to private parties and it was (routinely for a Monday) closed on the third. So 3 nights, no restaurant, no alternative. The Colonne Bar was likewise closed all 3 nights - we never saw it open. Breakfast was only adequate, the orange juice was 90% water They helpfully emailed before we arrived to offer to arrange collection from Rome Termini train station. Despite replying 3 times to the invitation email, there was zero reply and the receptionist later informed us that in fact there is no collection from Termini! The bedroom a/c unit set a new record for noise did nothing other than blow hot air about. We complained and we're given an email address (the same email address as used for the collection service) and guess what - no reply to that either. This hotel has one saving grace, it's closeness to the Vatican. Save for that, it's a bit of a walk to any other attraction. Given it's location and the fine old building, this could be a fabulous venue, but it needs gutting and new management. Avoid like the plague.

Very good hotel at a fabulous location. Well if you are expecting a lot of extras -- forget about this, however the hotel is a former palazzo with the character of a museum. High rooms incredible paintings etc. etc. `the location (200 meters from peters dome) and the quite spacious rooms have made me my wife and my 7-year-old son happy. The rooms were clean the bathrooms also big enough (noot the most modern though). Still -- i will be back -- not only for the restaurant which is located in the former chapel of the palace but also because of the icredible charme this palazzo has. Furthermore the reeptionists are outstanding.

Fabulous Location right at St. Peter's Square! Fabulous Price! What a gem this is right outside St Peter's square!! The price was fantastic and the location couldn't be beat. An added bonus of secure on site parking lot made this hotel one we will use every time we are in Rome. The staff was super helpful and pleasant. The room we had was very basic...we would have liked a more comfortable bed and better pillows. The shower stall was very small and we commented that we were lucky weren't oversized people or we would not have fit in it! We did choose the lowest category of room, which was certainly not the fault of the hotel, and will upgrade to a higher level or room on our next visit. The room was spotless as was the bathroom and the housekeeping staff was great! There is a restaurant in the hotel which was very nice after a long day of travel. Truly a fabulous find and we will return for sure!!!
