Hotel Suisse is about 200 metres from the top of the Spanish steps. The hotel staff are very friendly and helpful. The room we had overlooked a private courtyard and was very clean and comfortable. You need to pay extra for air con if its required.
It was a pleasent quiet haven away from the busy streets of Rome.

We were lucky enough to learn about the Hotel Suisse from friends in our hometown and it was such a treat. We loved staying there! The location could not be better and the family room was huge. Our friends stayed at the Hassler during the smae time up the block and our room was 3 times the size. I loved the security the place had as well with only a few guests at a time and our kids loved Rome. The hotel is a little tricky as it is on the second floor of a mixed use building after several design shops. This hotel was the best value of all of the hotels we stayed in on our 3 week trip. I would not go back to Rome and not stay at the Suisse!

Maybe by Rome standards hotel offers superb accomodations, but in reality it is Motel 6 at 165 euros per night.
The best feature is, of course, location, as well as top notch security. Other than that everything is at the minimally acceptable level.
The breakfast is a joke - lots of bread and not much else, with coffee delivered lukewarm. The whole breakfast-in-the-room idea is silly, because there is not enough space to even sit comfortably.
Our room (#38) was just big enough for 2 people, but not if you come with your luggage, as most people do.
The shower was tiny. If you are more than 200 lb., stay away from this room - you won't fit in the shower.
Among the staff Julie was kind and helpful, but the owner herself was rude and aggressive. Her main point in our 5 minute conversation was that she didn't really need us as customers, because she had plenty of permanent ones, and, if we don't like the shower, we "can go to a public bath."
I imagine a Motel 6 employee would be fired for such a comment.

Having read the reviews - well it is Rome and you get what you pay for. Nice place and good location - remember that it is at the TOP of the Spanish steps - so if you prefer not to make the walk at the end of the day - pay more and stay at another hotel at the BOTTOM of the steps.
The staff were great and the bathroom was nice. The room was fine for what we paid.

Not recommended if you are looking for a "romantic" getaway, but for my sister and I - it was fine for all the tourist things we did.
