Just returned from our first family trip to Rome, and Duca d'Alba was the perfect base for exploring the city. Slight apprehesion as we approached down a small side street, completely forgotten as we entered the hotel.
Early April with ongoing (but not intrusive) renovations close to completion, I think this hotel is a litlle gem. Perfectly clean, depsite the work, polite very helpful staff, sufficient breakfast including fresh fruit every morning. Perhaps not the biggest place in town but rooms decorated to a good standard with aircon and simply a perfect base.
Key sites are all walking distance, and metro close by. Cafe's, bars and restaurants to suit all budgets in most directions. Local streets lively on weekend evenings, but not loud or threatening, our ten year old boys loved it.
Would go back tomorrow.

This was an awful experience the room was not clean. The bed and bathroom were dirty and continued to be for the remainder of my stay. I did not feel comfortable, want so ever in this hotel. The website is very deceiving because the hotel does not look like what is on their website. The location was good but not worth it. Do not recommend!!

We chose this hotel for our last night in Rome as a bit of a slurge on our budget thinking it would be nicer. Room was decent size, bathroom was nice, but entrance was horrible, due to construction on the streets, and cab had to drop us off about 1/2 a block away from entrance and we drug our suitcases across a battle zone. Staff was less than cooperative and had a horrific wait for check in. Best thing I can say is they actually served a nice breakfast buffett, first time we had eggs, bacon, and the works for 2 weeks. Was conveniently located by Colosseum, Palentine Hill, and metro station, but area seemed pretty tough, wouldn't want to be walking alone late at night.

Management response from ducalba, proprietario
(Management representative)
Mar 20, 2009
Dear Madame and Sir,
we want to thank you for your comment that helps us to improve our service.
The construction on the street are a "Comune di Roma (municipal authorities)" work to fix some water pipes in the underground. They promised us that their works will be finished within a few days.
We are sorry for your waiting to check-in, we remind to all of our guests that our official check-in time is at 14,00 am, but if the room is ready and clean before that time, the check-in will be earlier. Our location area is the ancient "Rione Monti" area full of restaurants and well enlightened.
We hope to have you again as our guest in a future time, to offer you an improved service.
Kindest Regards,
Ruggero Giorgi - Hotel General Manager

Based on the previous reviews/suggestion on this page
I booked the hotel through Venere.com webpage.
The location of the hotel is excellent, there are several restaurants and shops near to the hotel, as well as, the Covour metro station is just 20 mts ahead.
Good things from the hotel:
- Easy to access
- Free Wireless internet service
- Friendly staff
Need Improvement:
- The room was too small and noise
Suggestion: avoid the rooms near to the elevator as those are very noise.

Thank you to the hotel staff! Mom & dad, grandmother & three teens stayed here over Thanksgiving.Excellent location, with fun bars, wonderful chocolate & candy shops, very Roman antique dealers, fancy & homestyle restaurants...you can not ask for more. except a metro nearby...oh! There's one two cobblestone blocks away! And the area is unequaled if your hope is to immerse yourself in old Rome. The Coliseum, St Peter's in Chains, the Forum...so much more. The hotel: super clean, excellent breakfast, cozy (ok small) rooms but comfy & clean and the staff is ever so helpful. The hotel has a lovely ambiance. It is a cheerful place. We will stay with the Hotel Duca d'Alba again.
