The best thing about this hotel is its location. We enjoyed a leisurely walk on a beautiful Sunday afternoon past the US Ambassador's residence and other mansions through Borghese Park, the Museo of Modern Art, the Tuscan Museum, and the Piazza Popolo, my favorite Piazza so far. We could have easily walked to Trevi fountain and Spanish Steps had we been inclined. The neighborhood provides beauty and convenience with a grocery store and many restaurants across the street and next door. We had a balcony and I think every room had one. The staff was uncharacteristically friendly for Rome. Definitely would stay there again.

just spent four nights at the Claridge hotel as part of a Monograms tour. Overall the hotel was very nice - rooms were reasonable sized and clean, the staff was friendly and the breakfast was very good. Only issue is that the hotel is really a 45-60 minute walk from any of the downtown sites (further to the Colosseum area) and you'll quickly find walking in Rome to be very tiring as you are constantly dodging cars and scooters. Several bus lines run near the hotel, so that is an option, but using the buses at night is a challenge since it is difficult to determine where you are and when you should be getting off the bus. However, as long as you are up to doing some walks, or figuring out the buses, then it is a very nice hotel in a good neighborhood.

I have just arrived back after staying two days at the Claridge in Rome. The staff was extremely helpful in making arrangements for tours and a taxi to take me to the airport on the day I left. I did an On & Off Bus one afternoon in Rome and took a city bus #52 to the central city to get on. Everyone was very helpful in directing me to the correct locations. The hotel breakfast was absolutely great, fresh fruit, yogurt, rolls, toast, juice, cereal, eggs, meats & cheeses, Italian coffee is strong so I appreciated the machine. The cups are even kept in a warmer. The room is spotless and I wish I had a marble bathroom at home. The supermarket was a great place to get water etc. The hotel even had American style ice cubes!! I was very pleased and would stay there again.

My husband, 13-year-old daughter, and I just returned from a 6-night stay at the Claridge. We used this hotel as part of a Globus tour, and we are very happy that we did! The hotel had the room ready as soon as the Globus shuttle dropped us off (late morning). Our triple room consisted of a king sized bed for us and twin bed for our daughter. We didn't feel at all cramped - by European standards this was a big room! The beds were quite firm, but very comfortable. The room had a flat screen tv, internet access (for a fee), nice fridge with room for our own drinks, and a wonderful bathroom. The bathroom was done in beautiful marble and there was a great selection of toiletries. Our daughter loved the towel warmer! We were very impressed with how clean the room and the entire hotel was. Maid service is excellent and you can just ask the front desk to schedule cleaning at the time convenient for you. Speaking of the front desk, every employee was friendly and helpful. They all spoke English very well and were extremely accomodating. They have maps of the city and will help you figure out how to get where you want to go. Two trams stop right next to the hotel, and a bus is just a couple of blocks away, so it's very easy to get to every area of the city. I must mention that this hotel is located in a quiet neighborhood about 20-30 minutes from the popular tourist sites. It's a very safe area, and perfect for people like us who don't want to be in the busy downtown areas 24/7. You must try the Taverna Rossini restaurant, which is very close to the hotel. We ate there frequently and the food and service was top notch. It was also nice to have a supermarket across the street, as well as an ATM. We enjoyed the breakfast. The trick to getting a good cup of espresso or cappucino is to ask the waiter, rather than getting it from the machine. They will bring it to you free of charge, and they will also bring you a glass of the red orange juice if you ask. Breakfast offered both hot and cold items, although we skipped the scrambled eggs in favor of the wonderful pastries and yogurts, cereal, and fruit.
