We stayed at the Pincio from May 11th thru the 18th and had a wonderful time. We were lucky enough to get the only room on the top floor, right across from the breakfast mezzanine and it was excellent. Room 74 is a corner room at the back of the building with two windows and a beautiful cross breeze.
In the mornings we woke to the smell of coffee and breakfast and for the rest of the day the floor was ours. Breakfast service was outstanding!
We traveled with friends who's room was on the 3rd floor and every evening we would meet on the mezzanine and have a glass of wine before heading out for dinner. It was like our own private terrace.
Our friend's room faced the street and for the first two days their a/c wasn't cooling their room adequately. Opening their windows let the street noise in and so they weren't really happy until the a/c was working properly.
Our room was very clean, the maid service was excellent, and everyone on staff was as nice as could be. The Internet access wasn't what I'd expected - I brought my laptop thinking I could get online - but they had an Apple desktop in a computer room downstairs available. It was still valuable being able to download my camera pictures onto my laptop but otherwise having it was useless. The shower was small, a tight fit, and if you drop the soap you better be able to squat 'cause there's not enough room to bend over. Be sure to bring a travel adapter for the electricity!
This was our first trip to Rome and we definitely want to go back. Staying at the Pincio again would be wonderful. We loved our location and probably logged 6 to 8 miles a day seeing the sights and wandering around Rome.
Because the hotel elevator doesn't go down to the first floor, the Pincio wouldn't be a great hotel for someone with a walking issue - but for that matter Rome might not be a good idea either as there's a lot of walking to do.
