I travel a lot for my business, I go very often to Rome, a city a really love. Usually I like find hotel in down town, close to Via Veneto (La dolce vita). This hotel is nothing special, but it is in very good position, not too far from the most important monument and intresting place, very good for me because I have to run a lot... the breakfast was ok, the room was clean but the service is not friendly. The doorman book for me a restaurant twice: Alex Café and Rossini. Alex is nice place in Via Veneto, good quality of service but the food doesn't taste. Rossini is the wrost restaurant I ate ever!!! It Is no italians work inside, only africans and romanian! They serve only junk food for tourist and the prices of the outside menus are different inside. If you don't understand yet, I love eat the good food. Anyway, the last day I found by myself, a very good family restaurant: Ristorante Barberini. It is behind the hotel, I had a great meals and service, the prices was "true" and the owner is an incredibile funny cute man. Such as a living monument for Piazza Barberini. So, if you need essential hotel in a good position, Hotel Imperiale is the place for you, but don't trust in the doormen.
