I loved my stay at The Major! I had to change my hotel plans last minute and was lucky to find a room here, and it ended up being better than I imagined. The hotel is just 10 minutes walking from Termini station, and well located within the city of Rome—I wish I had more time to explore! The rooftop bar was so relaxing and the breakfast was delicious. A lovely experience, all around.

Great location to sights and Roma Termi .Staff excellent. Nice upgraded rooms, bathrooms and common areas. The Masa rooftop restaurant is a gem. Very comfortable environment with great views, service, food and drinks. Highly recommend the lemoncello spritz. We would definitely start here again.

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.

Lovely Hotel for our great Rome trip
Very welcoming staff on the reception and the location was perfect for us, short walk to Rome termini and to the Colosseum, Trevi Fountain and many other areas we wanted to see. We booked room only so can’t comment on the breakfast or dinner offer here and if there was any negative comment, 25 euros pp for breakfast was a reason we went out for this.
