Romanico Palace Hotel Rome

Location is great! that's pretty much it!. It's gaudy and not updated. The showers floods the entire bathroom floor.

I booked a room in the annex, assuming that it's just a additional hotel building. The reality is that the hotel owns several apartments in the adjacent residential building. This is VERY DIFFERENT than staying in the actual hotel. Everything was cleaned daily, like normal, but to get any service we had to go the the actual hotel lobby, and it felt really uncomfortable. The actual hotel is OK, and people are friendly, but make sure to book the main location even though it's more expensive. The location is so, so– a little too far from the main places and requires taxi ride back.

The hotel itself has lovely decor and is fairly clean - I only say fairly and not very as they only half cleaned our room one day. Must've forgotten they were doing it. Those I'm afraid to say are the only good things I can say about this hotel. The staff were not very forthcoming, the value for money was beyond poor. The breakfast cost us 13 euros per person per day (although apparently could be cheaper depending on what deal you book) and consisted of the cheapest cornflake type cereal I've ever tasted and a selection of cakes which are only ok to eat if you like/are not allergic to Nutella. On the last day as we were leaving I noticed a menu hidden away which had omelette on it but hot food was never offered and I don't know if it would have cost more. The hair dryer in the room did not work. We also had a room with a jacuzzi bath - that did not work. Do not expect to find a kettle, a complimentary biscuit or in fact anything at all conplimentary or comforting - if you are on a late flight there, eat on the plane!! Finally the location wasn't too bad if you don't mind doing a bit of walking but the noise if the traffic was very loud and pretty much constant making it difficult to sleep sometimes.

From Check-In to Check-Out one could not ask for better accommodations and service. The desk clerks were fabulous (including the new guy), the Bar Tender friendly & entertaining and the Concierge was by far the best and most efficient yet. The complimentary breakfast offered to hotel guests on the 7th floor rooftop dining area was awesome. Beautiful views of Roma. Bellmen were extremely helpful, sometimes opening the Bar early for us, as well as the remaining hotel staff who were very gracious and accommodating. Dining recommendations by the staff were on target and we especially enjoyed La Giara just about about 3 blocks away. The thinly sliced smoked tuna is excellent. We stayed in 4 hotels during our European trip and the Romanico was by far the most enjoyable.

We were situated in the annexe next to the main hotel building ,but we really loved out room it was large, clean, comfortable and a great large bed. Breakfast was on the rooftops which was great and there was plenty to eat. We were only a 10 min walk from the main centre, which lead to most sightseeing attractions.We only had a couple of days and squeezed in has much as possible viewing the Coloseum, Vatican, Spanish steps and some lovely restaurants. The trip was a present for my 60th birthday and was worth the wait as I really enjoyed it, although things were quite expensive with the euro. 1 tip - wear some comfortable shoes! as there is plenty of walking.

The staff could not be nicer or more helpful. Everyone from the front desk to the waiters in the breakfast room were kind and attentive. Special thanks to Jorge who helped us figure out the bus system and gave us lunch recommendations. The room was very clean. The location was far enough from the center to make for peaceful nights, but close enough to walk to major historic center sights such as the Trevi fountain, the Pantheon, and the Spanish Steps. Fantastic value for the price! Would definitely stay again.

Room was clean, staff was nice, and location was good. The room did not have a clock, which was really annoying. The desk space was limited. Shower was small, but nice.

Staff were very welcoming, friendly and helpful. Breakfast was very good on the wonderful rooftop with views over Rome.

Beautiful hotel, nice decorated room, but on first shower the heavy head hanging from large tub from ceiling fall over Mom's upper back the her leg. It could be a disaster. She was all bruised all the trip. Management from hotel NEVER even call to follow up, only the employees where pending on how she was doing. I have pictures and will contact you. Otherwise, the hotel was good, good breakfast, ambiance, location, and again thank you to employees, in special Angelo, He is everywhere, bar, room service, breakfast. Roma is beautiful, but be careful when exchange money, ask % of commission charge x transaction.

looked good on the outside and in the lobby but pricey for add-on breakfast and no room serivce except drinks and snacks. Admittedly they gave recommendations of local restaurants and maps but they didn't tell us they had problems booking a taxi and there was a new tax which had to be paid in cash on check out for which there was no notice/advice. Bathroom was nice but the door didn't shut properly and a room overlooking the street was noisy
