A few steps from the luxurious Villa Borghese and the chic shopping of Via Veneto, the exclusive Hotel Lord Byron, once a patrician villa, provides the best of both worlds: vicinity to the bustling Eternal City's main attractions and the opportunity to relax in a secluded environment surrounded by the staff's attentive and discrete attention. The property is a proud member of "Small Luxury Hotels of the World".

Beautiful and away from the hustle and bustle. We only have a one night stay but will return here on our next trip. Taxis are easily found and can get you around the city quickly. The staff is attentive, professional and bilingual. A small luxury hotel with the boutique feel and luxurious. They also offered a boxed breakfast for our early departure. Highly recommend..

We decided to return to the Lord Byron after comparing the current pros and cons of 5 Star hotels in Rome. The Lord Byron won the value contest hands down! Located in a very quiet residential area above Borghese Park with a small hotel atmosphere, we felt welcomed and treated as a valued guest. The staff is very helpful and courteous, answering all our questions and requests. The morning breakfast is excellent as is the evening dining and room service. We did find the room very comfortable generally, although the bed needed replacement. For us the location was overall a plus since we most often looked forward to the 30 minutes or so walk through Borghese Park to the top of the Via Veneto, but we did take a taxi occasionally. We recommend the Lord Byron as a high value small 5 Star hotel.…

Hotel Lord Byron is a wonderful hotel in Rome. We had a four night stay there in March and thoroughly enjoyed our time. Location - in the Parioli district, just north of the Borghese Gardens. You’re not in the thick of the hustle & bustle of the city, but we loved that about it. It’s a 15 min walk to the Spanish steps through the gardens, which in itself is beautiful. It was really easy to get a taxi for trips a bit further afield or when we were feeling lazy! Room - we had a superior room overlooking the front courtyard of the hotel. The art deco style is evident throughout the hotel and maintained in the rooms - it was like being on a Gatsby set, we loved it. The bed was incredibly comfy and of a good size. The bathroom was marble throughout and felt very indulgent. Breakfast - the breakfast was one of the best things about the hotel. It was of a continental style, with plenty of buffet options to choose from, but the kitchen would also make things like omelettes/eggs Benedict etc to order if you so wished. It was also a real treat to have silver cutlery and china crockery for every meal! The breakfast is taken downstairs in another sumptuous dining room - it’s on basement level but does not feel dark or dingy, like you sometimes experience in smaller hotels. The coffee was incredible too! Service - the hotel staff are impeccably attentive. From our initial greeting to check out, all of the staff made us feel very welcome. They speak excellent English, Italian and probably a myriad of other languages too! They were all smartly dressed, in keeping with the art deco aesthetic, which added a real touch of sophistication to it all. We had one issue where there was no hot water in the hotel for about an hour or so one evening, which was a little frustrating when getting ready. But the hotel staff kept us informed of developments and were apologetic. Overall HLB is a wonderful place to stay in Rome. It is elegant, friendly and most of all relaxing - the perfect base from which to explore this incredible city. …

We usually come to Rome for the Rugby every 2 years and have always stayed here . Deluxe hotel with lovely staff and great breakfast . Only a nice 10 minute walk through the park to Piazza Del Popolo. Lots of taxis available, even if you don’t fancy the walk. Will definitely come back again .

Book any hotel other than this one. Their customer service is non existent. The St. Regis is a 5 star hotel and you’re treated like it. Lord Byron is not a 5 star hotel. This hotel just wants your money and it’s not close to anything. I had a medical emergency and they refuse to give me a refund even after they booked the room. That is greed and selfishness. These concierge don’t care about reviews or influencer videos because life happens and they charged me $2200. Don’t book here. Save yourself time and money. Also a $200-$250 a night hotel in Italy is NOT a 5 star. They don’t have 5 star customer service either. They are very hard to get ahold of when you need help and are in the wrong business. Book at the St. Regis and they’ll give you a competitive rate instead of staying here. Tell them “Tina” referred you and you’ll get world class treatment from a verified “world class 5 star hotel”. This is not. Most of the reviews aren’t even 5. Why bother at an establishment where you’re going to be spending your time just to be inconvenienced. I witnessed that first hand. We all have a story but the manager and hotel do not care. Read this again…they do not care. Atlante garden hotel is located in heart of Rome-that’s a 4 star hotel and great location. St. Regis or 4 seasons will give you 5 star. For $250 like Lord Byron- go to Atlante garden hotel. There is a reason why hotels want to keep all of your money like this one. STAY AWAY FROM THIS HOTEL! Trust the reviews where there are problems because that could be YOU just like me.…

Dear Mr. Mswmomma1, we are sorry to read about your review. You booked a not refundable rate so at reservation time you agreed to prepay your whole stay without having the possibility to modify and cancel the reservation. In case you preferred to pay at the hotel, you had other options. Our customer service answered your requests every time you contacted it, so it is always at guests' disposal for any necessities. We understood your situation and we found another agreement about your reservation so what you wrote is not what happened. We want our guests to be satisfied with their requests.

Just back from a Med Cruise and the first stop was Romes’ Lord Byron Hotel. The hotel is sl, luxurious and full of charter. The location a bit off the beaten track, but a short taxi ride to the main attractions. Our room was small and a little in need of updating, but the public areas are very nicely appointed. To me the make or break of most hotel stays are the staff and you will not be disappointed. The people are amazing. Also, checkout the restaurant the Surprise Tasting Menu was a true delight.

My wife and I have been coming to the Hotel Lord Byron since 2012, and we are completing our fifth visit. The staff are very friendly and accommodating. The property is, essentially, as it has been since our first visit but, as with so many locales in the hospitality business, there has been an erosion of standards. As an affiliate to the Hyatt hotel group, I was really disappointed that none of my Globalist benefits accrued. The primary one would have been to use a suite upgrade as our Superior Room was really cramped for three nights. Excellent toiletries and amenities (robes etc,) in the bathroom, but turning round in the shower and indeed the bathroom itself was a challenge. The breakfasts continue to be amazing, truly one of the best. The restaurant is a different matter. What was a little gem, has now been “transformed” into something far less. The new owner/manager, who is the grandson of the founder, believes that by hiring a chef who “has had Michelin stars” is a huge benefit. We had dinner on the second night. We were one of only two couples and there was no atmosphere. The food was prissy and belonged to the bygone age of nouvelle cuisine; read over-produced and light on quantity. The prices do not match the ambience, and overall quality of the experience. I am struggling with giving more than three “stars”, if there were halves, I would rate the property 3.5.…

Regarding your room upgrade and recognition as a Globalist, we are happy to upgrade our guests upon availability, but at your arrival we were fully booked so it was not possible to assign you a different room category, we are sorry.

Overpriced, paying for decor- which is Art Deco- but rooms are dark, large bathtubs though- to be fair Twice they woke us up twice at 7:00 am with loads of food which they charged 100$ even though the sign was up to not disturb. This was a scam since breakfast was free and did not start until 730. If you open the minibar and place your own water they will charge you 50$ since they see it was used. Breakfast is lovely with lots of options Front desk was helpful getting taxis which you will need since the walk to town is 45 minutes. Choose a different more central hotel.

All I can say is wow wow wow. Great staff great breakfast and if you are into art deco you will fall in love. Lots of little extras in the room makes it so romantic. Bit of a walk into town but worth the effort. Will stay here again if in Rome. I would say one of the best city hotels I have stayed in.

Our first trip to Rome and this hotel helped make the trip so special. It is about 10-15 minute walk from the main centre but it wasn’t a hardship. It was very quiet where it is situated. The hotel is so picturesque and beautifully maintained. The staff were very friendly and helpful and went out of their way to accommodate. The room was a Junior suite and was very spacious and well appointed, with a balcony. IF I could point out any item that I didn’t love, it would be the combined bath/shower confirmation. Not my favourite. We had breakfast included and all I can say is ‘Wow’. The dining room itself was spectacular and the service of the staff was exceptional. The food provided was very tasty and there was a wide range to choose from. If or when I go back to Rome I will definitely stay here again.…
