The Prassede Palace is a lovely boutique hotel hidden in the small streets of Rome.
First, I have to say is that the staff is wonderful, especially Fatima, who went far above and beyond to make our stay comfortable, and assisted us in making any arrangements we needed. This is not gratuitous- she is truly an asset.
I was surprised to find that this hotel is very small. While the hotel is billed as a "Hotel, Restaurant and Convention Center," there is 1 floor of 8 or 9 rooms, the restaurant is actually next door, and the Convention Center is a meeting room. The rooms are small, and we found it difficult to navigate the room with all of our luggage. The bathroom was well appointed, but the water pressure was a little lacking. While it was a very hot week in Rome, the A/C would not go lower than 23C- we prefer it a little cooler. And my last bit of criticism is that it was very difficult to get ice for our drinks that we brought back with us. We had to go down to the restaurant next door and ask the bartender for a glass of ice, and he looked at me like I had two heads. Luckily, Fatima spoke to him, and he was ready for us next time.
Overall, the hotel was very clean, the beds were very comfortable with high end linens, rates were reasonable, the breakfast next door was delicious, and as I said, the staff was wonderful. I can certainly overlook the criticisms I noted above, but the purpose of these reviews is so people know what to expect. I highly recommend.
