The 3 of us stayed for 5 days in July. The rooms well clean, well maintained and quiet. The location of the hotel was about 8 minues from borghese park and a couple minutes away from the bus stops.

The breakfast was good although expect lighter foods. Such as breads, cheese, meat, fruit coffee, etc.. And looking around Italy food proportions definately play a part ina higher percentage of Americans being overweight. So a light breakfast is probably a good thing.

The staff was knowledgable and accommodating. However, we did have a couple of issues, and not so much a problem as an irritant. When we put up the "Do Not Disturb" signs the maid came in irregardless and cleaned our room while we were out. I suppose we really can't blame her for cleaning our rooms... Secondly, 2 of the Front desk people were excellent the 3rd however not so much. I came back after dinner and was asking him how best to travel to the Vatican from the hotel he explained the best course quite well. However, as I was leaving he commented to the bell hop in italian in frustration. He could of at least waited until I was out of ear shot.

Very good hotel. I do advice to stay in it.

When in Rome, a nice place to stay indeed.
Very clean and fresh decorated Italian style rooms, including a spacious bathroom. Shabby chique breakfast room where you can order as many cappuccino's as you want. Pity though, that the service is quite uninspired and unsincere! Catch your bus to the historic city center at Piazza Santiago di Cile (a two minute walk from the hotel). And when in the eternal city, do rent a bike to ride along the Via Appia Antica and have a picknick at the Caracalla park. Unforgettable!

We visited Rome on 6 Oct 2006 as a treat for my husband's 40th birthday, staying at the Degli Aranci. On arrival the staff were efficient and extremely helpful. The room was very pleasant, if a little on the small side, but the bathroom was very good.

Although it is a little distance from the city centre, it has good access via public transport or the taxis were very reasonable. The upside of the location is that it was very peaceful, which was not something that could be said for the rest of the city!!

We had a great time in Rome and the weather for the time of year was fantastic, the Colosseum and the Forum being my favourite places to visit. We were approached by tour guides to join their groups at both the Vatican and the Colosseum and for a few extra Euros we jumped some very long queues and the guides were very knowledgable.

I would recommend both the City and the Hotel for a short break or special treat.
