Rooms were very clean. Breakfast area was very crowded, and there weren't many people staying at hotel. Breakfast items were very basic compared to other locations we visited during our Italy trip.

At night, when you visit the in-suite bathroom, I found it very impractical, as there was no night-light, and you had to turn on the light outside the bathroom, then step up a large step, to get in to the bathroom. A night light would have been very helpful. Our party had 2 rooms, and this was a challenge with both rooms. Also, there were no English speaking stations on the TV. When you're in your room, TV can be a nice way to wind down.

The location was not easy to find, but that may be Rome. We were there 4 days, and never found it easy to navigate back to our hotel.

The staff was pleasant, but I don't think this was an exceptional property and would look to find an alternate place to stay next time.

After reading glowing reviews on Tripadvisor we booked and stayed for 4 nights in October at Il Piccolo di piazza di Spagna in Rome and were very disappointed. The first night was spent in a tiny room with a pokey bathroom, hard bed and very noisy. Next morning we were moved to another, larger room with a balcony only to find after settling in that it only had a hand held shower over a bath, without any screen - very difficult to shower without flooding the room. Decided not to ask for another move and spent 3 very uncomfortable nights in another rock hard bed. No street noise but voices and plumbing noises very clear through the walls from adjoining rooms. Very inadequate breakfast served in an alcove which seated maximum of 6 people at a time. The staff were helpful when asked. The location was good but after walking many kilometres sightseeing, the most important thing is a good shower and comfortable bed and this hotel just didn't measure up - did not deserve 3 star rating and I would not recommend it or stay there again

My wife and I used this hotel for a recent long weekend in Rome.

We booked it on the recommendation of Tripadvisor and were disappointed. Whilst the location is excellent, the hotel facilities are poor.

When we booked (ages ago!) We asked for a room with a balcony and instead we had a very small room that was in need of some maintenance. It was also extremely noisy if we had the window open and uncomfortably warm if we didn't.

Breakfast was OK but nothing special and served in a very cramped area of hallway.

The cost was €200 per night which I consider was excessive for what we got, I was expecting something much better. I would not use this hotel again.

My wife and I spent eight nights in this hotel at the end of August/beginning of September. I wasn't expecting perfection, in fact if anything a few flaws, given the relative cheap price for our stay. However I have to say that I can't imagine a friendlier, cleaner, charming and romantic little Roman hotel.
On arriving the receptionist, Davide, took our bags up the quaint caged elevator to our room. Our room, 'Giotto', had a corner balcony overlooking the monestary next door. The room was small but comfortable, the decor charming and authentic. The room was spotless and was kept so throughout our stay by the maid who cleaned it every morning.
We found the staff friendly and helpful and always ready to give us advice or assistance with local information.
As for the location - a two minute walk to the Spanish Steps, less than five to the Trevi Fountain.
We fully intend to return to Rome and will definetly be booking our stay at the Hotel Piccolo.
We were on our honeymoon and after a couple of days my new wife told me that she thought the room was "perfect". I couldn't have asked for more, really.
