This was a completely unknown chain to us, so we took a chance because location and reviews were so strong. We were so impressed, and will absolutely look for Room Mate Hotels from now on! Great location, luxury feel, delicious breakfast, the best bed and pillows we had in Italy, and incredibly friendly and helpful staff. We were close to all the things we wanted to visit, but on a side street that was incredibly quiet. There is no bar or restaurant in the hotel itself, but many options nearby. And the 6th floor balcony offered incredible views of Rome. Tremendous experience!
