I've just arrived from a short stay in Rome, and I can tell that it coudn't work out better. I have a long experiencie travelling in Europe and I know ery well Rome and its hotels (I've been a tour guid for almost 20 years) and this is, by far, one of the best places I have even been. Let's face it: Italian hotels have small rooms, and most of the places have nothing to do with, let's say, tourist hotels in the Caribbean or USA, but for me, this was a suprise: functional, quite new, and with excellente service (from the men at the front desk, to the laday manager or the lady at the breakfast room), good facilities for relaxing (if you go, don't miss the spa, ideal after a long walk in the city). I loved the location (I looked for somewhere away from the crowds in the historical center) in Trastevere: closed to many restaurants, the Sunday market, in front of the hotel, and the nice views fron the Gianicolo hill (a winner off the beaten track!), and the tram stop passing every 3 minutes and taking you to the center in 10 minutes. I loved the place, and now is one of my favourites in the city!

My family (children 13 and 9) recently stayed at the Trilussa and would recommend it. Positives: + reasonably priced + convenient location. Walking distance to Travesterre district, across the street from public transportation which will take you into thhe heart of Rome. + hotel is nice looking and clean + staff were courteous and helpful. + breakfast was first rate + roof top garden & bar was a nice treat in the evening + coffee shops close + excellent Chinese food next door! (if you tire of pasta). + great king sized bed Negatives - our room was a little small for 4. Ideal of 2 adults, fine for 2 adults and 1 teen, cramped for 2 adults and 2 children. We requested 2 cots be rolled in. On balance it was a good deal and we didn't mind because we were out of the room most of the day, but if you need space consider this. - the bathroom is nice and clean but the shower is tiny! It is a modern "capsule" shower. Fine for skinny people, but if you or overweight or claustraphobic I wouldn't recommend it.

Great reception and advice on how best to see the city. Room clean modern, small but luxurious bathroom again impecably clean. Lovely barman on the roof terrace which gives lovely view on the city. In fact all the staff friendly and helpful with an excellent breakfast and breakfast room - set us up for each days activities. Simply jump on the tram outside and in 5 mins you are nearby Pantheon. Also a bus (no 3) outside that goes straight to Colesseum, about 5-7 minutes. Both frequent services. So it was great value, convenenient and would recommend it strongly to anyone. Beautiful city of course, double decker on off bus tours very good as is public transport. (4 Euro for a day pass on tram/buses.) Beware Rome taxi drivers however. The only thing that dented our stay was being ripped off and cheated by a taxi driver from central station to hotel. (Ask estimated price in advance watch meter, make sure they drop you at the door of the hotel so if they try anything funny you can get assistance from the hotel. When we were ripped off the staff could not have been more symapthetic - in fact offerred us complimentary drinks which helped restore our spirits) So, if you are flying in, I recommend you book a car / limo via the hotel in advance. Not cheap but a fair price ( wish we had done that on way in - we did of course on way back to airport.) With help of trip advisor have always found good value hotels for our trips. I have to say the Trilussa has been the best so far. You will not be disappointed!

Loved this hotel for many reasons. Very clean, lovely room and linens. It's great to have the frigobar to get water or wine in a pinch. The hotel is walking distance to many wonderful restaurants if you want to take it easy. It is also conveniently located on the metro system, so going for dinner is minutes away. The roof top bar is a must visit for a drink before or after dinner. The workout area was clean and neat, and very empty. Booking a massage was a little tricky. I finally wound up with an " OK ",$100 massage that was misbooked 2x. I adored this location, Trasteverre, as it's very "left bank". The breakfast room was so pretty, and the morning selections were more than adequate. I really was surprised by this little gem.

Terrific hotel. So much so that we've stayed there twice. Great staff, friendly service, high-tech rooms, great amenities, close to transportation, good service -- everything you could want and more. We'll definitely stay there again on our next trip.
