Just got back from 3 nights here with my girlfriend. Absolutely fantastic hotel, full of character, tastefully decorated. Spotlessly clean. Amazing location on a lovely side street just of piazza Farnese and 30 seconds from Campo de fiori. Within easy walking distance of every sight in Rome, including the Vatican. Very well located for the Trastevere, just a short stroll over the Tiber. I do not think the location could be bettered.

We asked for a room overlooking the Palazzo Farnese, which we got. Fantastic view of the gardens of the Palazzo. The size of the room was more than adequate, generous double bed, writing desk, mini bar, good sized wardrobe, nice bathroom, LCD TV. Room was quite, the side street is not a busy one. This was a standard double room.

Reception area is lovely when you walk in, as is the breakfast room and the food to go with it. Lovely fresh pastries / fruit / meats / cheese / bread / jam / cereals / cake etc etc. Coffee also very good.

Staff were friendly and helpful. We arrived early, they took our our cases and gave us a map and quick intro to nearby sites to see until our room was ready. Cases were waiting in our room when we came back.

Would recommend this hotel to anyone. Very good value.

We stayed in Residenza Farnese from 16th to 21st September 2007. The location of the hotel is perfect for exploring Rome and we visited most of the city on foot. The hotel is close to the Campo de Fiori (maybe too close) which is handy for picnic food and evening drinks but definitely noisy at the week end. We enjoyed the proximity to the Ponte Sisto so most evenings we ended up in Trastevere for our late night drink.

The hotel was extremely clean and well maintained with very helpful staff, all of whom spoke excellent English. Rooms vary in style from stylish to rather old fashioned but are comfortably finished with good bathrooms, sorry read that as shower rooms as there are no baths.

Good breakfasts were included with our room; wide selection of breads, pastries and cold meats, excellent coffee but mediocre tea and poor quality fruit juice.

I would definitely stay again but rooms away from the front of he hotel are quieter as the narrow street seems to be a popular short cut for late night revellers.

We were very pleased with our 2 rooms May18-20 during our first trip to Rome. Each had a nice view and was very quiet. The desk clerks were very helpful and the breakfast buffet (included in the room price) was very nice. Our cash rate was E260 per room per night for each superior double room. This is a great location and is only steps away from Campo de Fiori and a short distance from Piazza Navona. The hotel did a great job arranging our pick-up service to and from the airport. The Mercedes SUV was nice and roomy for 4 adults and 6 pieces of luggage plus carry-ons.

We (2 adults & 4 yr old) stayed here for 2 nights in July 2006. We arrived late at night during a taxi strike. We were quickly led to our room, it suited our needs nicely. It had a double bed + a little bed for our 4 yr old. The air conditioning was nice, the room was big enough for us. The breakfast was what you would expect, typical for a European breakfast. The staff was quite helpful and pleasant. We didn't have any problems with the hotel or the location. We were not out later than 11:00pm, we didn't find the neighborhood scary or anything. It was good. We enjoyed the Campo di Fiore, very nice market! Good location, 15 minute walk to the touristy areas. Price was okay, normal by Rome standards. I would recommend this hotel and I would consider staying there again.
