My husband and I just returned from an amazing 7 days in Rome to celebrate New Years Eve and have a romantic holiday. I did a lot of reseach on hotels in Rome as i have visited Rome many times but have always stayed with relatives far from the city so I wanted the best location and a comfortable room for 7 days.
After reading all the positive reviews on trip advisor i chose the Relais Pierret for location and the size of the room. Neither one disappointed us.
From beginning to end the hotel offered excellent service from their very quick replies to my emails and their useful information on restaurants etc in Rome.
The hotel was at first hard to find as we had an airline car transfer that dropped us off at the wrong hotel but if you are facing the spanish steps its the building to your left with the boutique Furla next to the large front doors that lead to the 8 quaint rooms on level 1 of the building.
Our room was larger than expected - the bed was one of the most comfortable we have slept in - it consisted of 2 twin beds which I think are zipped together to form one large very comfortable bed with 4 pillows (2 firm and 2 soft).
The bathroom had 2 separate basins and were separated by another door so you had his/her bathrooms - one had the bathtub and basin and the other room had the toilet, bidet and basin. Again another reason why i would stay at this hotel again.
The ceilings were around 18 feet high which gave us a greater feeling of space.
We were fortunate not to have any loud guests during our stay as you can hear the footsteps down the corridor and any chatting but this would not deter us from staying here.
Rome during New Years Eve is amazing.... the atmosphere is incredible and the weather was cold and clear so we were able to spend the night ouside at the open air concert ouside of the Colosseum and then sit at the Fountain of Trevi at 2am eating pizza and drinking campari. An unforgettable night.
It was comforting returning to our hotel each evening to our lovely room which felt like home after 7 days.
I dont think you can find a better location than the Spanish steps for sightseeing, restaurants, the best shopping in the city and the Metro was 1 minute walk from the hotel. I would highly recommend this hotel for couples and singles.

We stayed at this hotel in the hot month of August, but had no problems at all. The airconditioning was working, the windows are double-glazed, so insulate well against both the heat/cold and the noise - very quiet despite Spanish steps next door. The front desk staff are very knowledgeable and helpful. Thank you! And the price was a nice bonus - not that many reasonably-sized, refurbished rooms in Rome for this price. Highly recommended.

This hotel is one door away from the foot of the Spanish Steps so the location for tourists is hard to beat. The room was generous is size, but could have benefited from a comfortable chair. The staff was extremely helpful in all respects.

There are too issues with the Relais Perriet: If you have a room on the south side of the hotel facing the Spanish Steps, crowd noise at night outside your room can be a real problem, and closing the windows won't solve it. Also the air conditioning units are not very effective in dealing with Rome's often sultry weather.

If it was not for having no A/C on 90 degree days, I would have rated this hotel much higher. We were there in September and it was unusually hot for Rome. We were travelling with friends who also stayed there and had no A/C in their room either. We asked the staff to look into it. They came into both rooms and tried to work the remote which operates the A/C, but to no avail.

If you are staying in Rome during cooler months I would recommend this hotel. The location is excellent. The rooms are spotless, bed is comfortable, and bathrooms are large.
