This 12 room boutique hotel is a hidden gem in Rome. It’s very conveniently located in a safe town square called Palazzo Barberini in downtown Rome.
The door to the hotel itself is a bit difficult to find when you first arrive - it’s a glass door locked to those without a keycard. Ring the bell and you will be greeted warmly by one of the EXTREMELY Helpful staff on duty.
Hotel is less than a block from a Metro stop and if you’re a tourist just across the street you can find the popular Hop On, Hop Off double decker tourist buses - which is a GREAT way to see the main attractions- or to just get a feel for the city. You can stay on the bus for the full hour & half or get off at the big sites & get back on again when finished. Barberini square (palazzo) is stop #4 on the Green bus line. Walking distance to Spanish Steps & Trevi Fountain and other sites.
Upon arrival the attendant on duty realized we were tourists and she highlighted the route to the places we wanted to see. At 11PM the night before we left we realized we needed a cab to airport and the attendant on duty was very helpful in scheduling transportation despite the late hour. 60 Euro flat fee to airport as of 2024.
I booked the hotel for a few days mid-week and upon arrival was pleasantly surprised to find my wife & I were upgraded to a beautiful suite with large living room, bedroom & bathroom. The room was nice and clean with hand painted designs on the beam ceilings & beautiful unique furniture also.
