This hotel had the best service in Italy. I would recommend any person to use this hotel if they were to stay in Rome because of this service; and in addition, the rooms were very clean, and also comfortable. I enjoyed my stay there very much and would book the same place over in a heartbeat if ever in the area again.

Monti is a "little village" in the middle of Rome, and there, in on of the charming, narrow streets, You find Hotel Grifo. On a trip to Rome five years ago we passed this lovely looking hotel and decided to stay there the next time, which we did in nov. 2008. On their website i´d read that the top floors had their own terrace and therefore i ordered one of them. Still, I hadnt actually been indside the hotel and therefore i coldnt be sure that the photos told the right story. They did. High expectations is a dangerous thing, but Grifo fulfilled our hopes for a romantic weekend. And more too.
We felt instantly at home. The service was excellent and the room was very nice. We will stay there the next time too, thats for sure.

The hotel's location is brilliant being a short walk from most of the city's most important monuments.. its in a quaint cobbled alleyway which give it the only sense of character it has.

The staff are very friendly.. and when we forgot something in the room they kept it for us until our return to the hotel 4 days later which was very sweet of them.

We did opt for private bathrooms which is great because the showers on some floors are on the other side of the floor.. and its not really what u want to b doing while on holiday.

The rooms are a little small, but you might get lucky and get one with a cute balcony or one of the most spacious rooms. I would opt out of breakfast.. stale cereal adn a few bits of bread really wasnt my thing..

Overall the hotel is excellent value for money, close to town, pretty surroundings.. near the main train station and you couldn't ask for money for that price.

Great stuff (especially Alessandro... he is great, he speaks several langugages, he know where, when and how to explore wonderful city...).

Good breakfast for that kind (star) hotel.

Great place to start or complete daily sightseeing, lot's of small shops, restaurants... Actually, you don't need public trasport for lot's of sights... or dinner, or store... But, it's close to metro station on B line (one stop to Termini), close to bus station on Via Nazionale...
From Termini station you can walk 10-15 min (well, Rome is on the several hills... :D )... 10 minutes walkign to Colosseum, or Forum Romanum...

Clean room, fresh towels every day, small shampoo, AirCondition... italian TV, but TV :)

  • Liked — Stuff (mr. Alessandro), central location in a quiet street
  • Disliked — floor int he room (ceramic tile)

We stayed 3N at the Grifo in a really nice room with en-suite bathroom (they aren't all en-suite, be careful when you book if this is important to you).

Our room was in a seperate apartment building just a few steps across the street, on the second floor (no lift). Very quiet, spotlessly clean, very comfortable and well appointed.

We were very pleased with the room, but the best features of the Grifo are the staff, who were all helpful, friendly and polite - and the location.

Good choice of local places to eat/drink and easy walk to the Cavour metro station and bus stops in Via Nacional. Don't walk from the Termini - it's easier by metro.
