Since my husband and I had been to Rome several times , we wanted to stay where we could walk to just about everything. We definitely made the right choice. During our week's stay, we found nothing to complain about. Our double room was large, had 2 balconies which faced the Borghese gardens and had a large bathroom. Our room was spotless as was the rest of the hotel. The complimentary breakfast was delicious and consisted of eggs, cereals, meats, cheeses, croissants, muffins, juices, and coffee. What more could you possibly ask for? You are in Italy, not the US! Everyone was courteous, pleasant and helpful. The rooftop terrace was closed during our stay, but don't forget to see Angelo in the lobby lounge. He's wonderful!!

I really liked the Hotel Victoria, only around the corner from the top of the spanish steps, yet in a nice and quiet/relaxing part of Rome. The rooms are small but spotless and modern and everything is within easy reach. The open bus tour is a must..it brings you to all the main attractions.
The reception staff were extremely helpful and polite.
The food in the hotels restaurant was a little over priced for the standard but there are plenty of others in the area which were gorgeous.

I booked this hotel because of the positive reviews on TripAdvisor. My experience did not have any of the positive points discussed. We had mold on our shower curtain, mold on the bathroom tiles, and rickety lamps with non-working bulbs. Our view was of a wall on the building next door (even though I had specifically requested that we not face a wall). The beds and pillows were so uncomfortable that even my 8 year old was complaining. The breakfast buffet was very disappointing - the same drab cold cuts and watery eggs each morning. I had asked the concierge to help with a reservation - she said she would look into it, and I never heard back from her. There is internet access via ethernet cable, but no WIFI. OK, to be fair, here is the good stuff - the location was very nice (close to Via Veneto), there was one very charming and affable staff member who really did try, and the cappuccinos at breakfast were delicious.

We had a couple of issues with this hotel, and we definitely did not get our money's worth. We stayed here for three nights and paid about $530 for all 3 nights. This hotel is categorized as a 4-star in expedia, but it does not come close! We thought the hotel had been remodeled, that may have been a long time ago - the carpets are quite dirty (first sign of no recent renovation) the comforter looked as it had never been washed, and as a matter of fact the cleaning crew removed it after our first night... The bathroom was very spacious, and fairly clean but the tub/shower has clear panels instead of curtains, and these do not close all the way through - we found this quite funny actually. The interesting part about this hotel is that its advertised as a top hotel chain across Europe but it did not feel that way at all.
Location wise - its a bit removed from the main attractions, we managed to walk to most of them - a lot of walking, but we would definitely stay at a hotel closer to the center next time. This hotel should be priced at no more than $75 - $100 per night with its current condition.
