We booked this hotel almost a year in advance as a stop on our honeymoon. The morning of our check in day we were informed that the hotel was overbooked and could not accommodate us. Um...ok. They moved us to a hotel that I would never have chosen to stay in. Needless to say, I'm extremely disappointed.

If you're visiting Rome and looking for a hotel that has a great location, nearby transportation, plentiful shopping/restaurants, and historic sites all within walking distance, it's hard to beat Rome's River Palace on the northwest side of the city. We stayed here last few days as we were wrapping up a month-long trip through Italy, and were happy we did.... More

This is a great hotel, form the moment we arrived we were spoilt by the very attentive staff. The happy hour(s!) is very good value, free canapes and drinks half price, so 2.5 Euro for a large draught Becks, or 5 Euro for a very large cocktail from the extensive list. Had a superior room but at happy hour noone... More

This was the first trip to Rome for my wife and I. After scouring the long list of possible hotels, we finally decided on trying the River Palace Hotel. We booked their Villa Borghese Suite and WOW!. We just couldn't have been any more pleased after we got there. The location, just outside Piazza Del Poppolo, was perfect for all... More

My son and I spent 5 days in March at this reasonably priced boutique hotel just off the stunning Piazza del Popolo. It happened to be Carnival weekend, and the city was alive with people, entertainment and a great vibe. We had a superior room which, like most European boutiques, was small, but well furnished and very comfortable. The hotel... More

Came back recently from a Venice, Florence, Rome vacation and this hotel was our last stop before home. Overall, it served our purpose well. Location is definitely a plus with many of the tourist "must sees" within walking distance. A good base in my opinion. The service was great, very friendly and helpful staff. As far as the room, I...

with most of the reviews. We did not think this hotel rated its four stars. We had a 'superior' room. I should not have liked to see the standard rooms if that was superior. The twin beds were less than six inches apart. The bedroom was tiny and the bathroom very small - to use the loo, you either positioned... More
