Amazing staff! Georgia was outstanding at checkin and check out. She’s helping us ship some things home as we are traveling on. Eraldo took great care of us in the bar, great personality, knows his drinks and funny. My favorite hotel in Rome, one of the best in Italy. Nice large rooms, perfect location and quiet surroundings in a loud city.

A great choice!

We had a wonderful stay! The hotel is in a walkable location. It is close to the Colosseum and Ancient Rome, but our room was very quiet and peaceful. It was clean and modern, with room for our family of 3 to spread out. There was a strange smell at times which is keeping me from 5 stars, but overall a great choice!

The hotel was beautiful, the staff was exceptional, and the room was spacious and felt luxurious. Nice breakfast. Big plus is the quite terras where you can unwind, get a quick bite and look out onto the Capitol Hill. The cocktails are outstanding. Location is excellent. 5 min walk from old forum, 10 min from great dinner places at Travestere, you can walk to the city centre/shopping areas. For further locations, there go a multitude of buses within a 5 min walk. Metro is 10 min walk. You can check into bus/metro with a debit card.

Our 4 night stay at Palazzo Velabro was wonderful! Our room was spacious and had a large balcony that over looked a garden and faced the Palatine Hill. The location is fantastic as the property is located within pretty close walking distance to several historical sites including Circus Maximus, the Capitoline Hill, the Roman Forum and the Colosseum. We also had no problem walking up to the Pantheon or Baths of Caracalla. The Tiber River is right across the street as is the bridge to Trastavere. The entire hotel staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, setting up taxi rides and offering to help us make restaurant reservations. I would 100% recommend staying here and will definitely stay here next time we're in Rome.
