Just come back from Alex Inn and would like to assure anyone who is thinking of staying here that they won't regret it. Located just off Via Veneto it is only 5 mins walk from the Spanish Steps and even less to Barberini metro station! The surrounding area is upmarket with 5* hotels and the US embassy all close by and the Villa Borghese park is a few minutes walk away. The room was very clean with a modern bathroom and plasma tv and a private terrace with table and chairs you could use to eat breakfast at!! The room also had a mini bar, hairdryer, Air Con and a free safe and the continental breakfast was a nice start to the morning. The staff were all very nice although the lady who worked the morning shift could not speak English, however the lady in the afternoon spoke excellent English and was very helpful. We arrived around 12 noon and were able to check in no problem despite the website saying check in was at 2pm. We booked directly with Alex Inn via their website and found it much cheaper which was a welcome saving as Rome proved to be quite expensive! Will definately use this place again and we recommend the Alex Inn as a 9 out of 10 hotel.

I loved staying here in Rome. It was close to Via Veneto and Villa Borghese as well as the Metro. The service was fantastic and the room was gorgeous. It was a true home away from home.

The Alex Inn was absolutely fantastic. I stayed with my partner for New years at this hotel. It was clean, breakfast each morning (brought to your room) was amazing! Air conditioning and heating, marble floor and bathroom and cable television.

For the price it was exceptional. 7 nights for 795 EURO! The lady who brings breakfast doesnt speak alot of english but we managed to figure it out. The girl at the front desk (mexican i think she was) is FANTASTIC. She helped with where the nightlife, restaurants, tricks of rome.

Would i stay there again? Absolutely. I have booked my parents in.

The Alex Inn is a lovely small boutique style hotel near the Trevi Fountain. My husband and I stayed there for 4 nights while in Rome in May. Our room was small but nicely furnished and very clean. We had a cozy patio area where we were served a very nice breakfast each morning. The staff was very friendly though it should be noted that there was not always a staff member on site who spoke English. This was not a problem for us as I speak some Italian but it could be a challenge for someone who does not. The hotel is very conveniently located about 3-4 blocks from the Barbarini subway stop. However to get to the hotel from the subway you do have to ascend a rather long flight of stairs to reach the street on which the hotel is located. This could be a bit of a problem for someone with a lot of luggage or someone with physical limitations.
