We stayed here for the last 5 days of a several-week tour of Italy/Sicily, in late October, 2008, & certainly the BEST was saved for LAST! 'Were immediately impressed with the cleanliness of this 4-star rated gem, friendliness of staff, beautiful double room (fabulous balcony for afternoon relaxation,) & delicious complimentary breakfasts. Staff even opened dining room early just for us on our day of departure! Our double room had 2 twin (firm) beds, lovely furnishings, and complete bath with an awesome shower - filled with amenities. Mini-bar, locking room safe, flat-screen t.v. with available internet (charge) were among other notables. As in most European hotels, the elevator was small, but quite dependable!
'Loved the neighborhood which provided several excellent restaurants (all price ranges,) grocery store (closed on Sundays) across the street; Farmacia & Tabacchi stores only a short walk away. Be sure to try a few doors down: Don Vito's Ristorante Siciliano - for a truly authentic gastronomic experience! They'll treat you like royalty! Don't forget Cafe Ingheria at the corner, for some of the best gelato in Roma.
We also purchased fabric (a great deal!) from a lovely little upholstery shop across the street from the hotel. Many attractions were 1/2 - 1 hour walk away from the Claridge. Additionally, both buses and trams passed by the hotel several times an hour. Maps of Roma were available at the desk upon request.
Hotel staff were very friendly and very helpful on retrieving - luggage which was left in our cab upon arrival! Overall, we loved this hotel: probably the best one we stayed in over the course of several weeks in Italy and Sicily.

We stayed in this hotel November for the weekend. The hotel is clean, modern and the staff friendly. The hotel is situated about 40 minutes casual walking from the Spanish Steps and the walk is through the relaxing Villa Borghese Park, passing the Biopark Zoo. Once you get to the Spanish steps most attractions are quite close by. We personally enjoyed the walk every day but some may find it a challenge, in that case public transport is easily accessible from the Hotel. We ate every day at the Taverna Rossini which is 200 metres away and we did not have a bad meal, we thoroughly enjoyed the food there, however we did not find a lot of alternatives within the locality. One problem that did occur in the Hotel was that breakfast is served in the dining area on the ground floor quite close to the reception. On our first morning we were sat down for breakfast when a couple came in and sat down at a table. Within a minute the couple left the dining area without eating and walked out. After a short while it was noticed that a handbag had been stolen from another guest on the table adjacent to where this couple had sat, so be aware at all times. This however could happen anywhere but all in all i would recommend staying here. The Biopark is well worth visiting and is a 10 minute walk away.

6 in my family stayed here with 3 rooms in Oct. 2008 with Globus! I loved the simple, elegant, modern decor, one of the best values i've experienced in traveling in Europe. It was extremely clean and the staff most courteous and knowledgeable. The rooms were larger than expected with a balcony off every room. The neighborhood was a wonderful escape from the hustle of tourists. Safe - with residences, cafes, park and a church. We walked to the Biopark (zoo), a grocery store provided nice light meals and water and an ATM across the street. The breakfast was excellent!!!! I would love to stay there again.

Our family stayed at the Claridge in early October for 3days and discovered what a gem this place was.

I had booked our room through the hotel website and not knowing what to expect other than a small room. However, our room was modern, spacious and clean as it consisted of a sitting area + a separate bedroom ( w/ king sized bed) overlooking the city. I had booked the junior suite to accommodate our family of 5. Every morning we woke up to the the bells from the nearby church.

The staff were very friendly and helpful. All English-speaking. And our children (twin boys aged 3 1/2 and baby aged 2) particularly enjoyed the daily breakfast buffet - adequate w/ hot and cold items.

The location is a bit out of the the main city centre/sights, however, neighbourhood is clean and quiet. There's even a supermarket 3 blocks from the hotel. Public transit is convenient, and a taxi ride to the Spanish steps, Trevi fountain was approx 12 Eur and takes about 10mins.

Highly recommended for travellers whom wish to stay at a quiet place, modern hotel, away from the noisy city centre.
