First, they had an amazing breakfast spread! If you're going to be exploring Rome all day a hearty breakfast is important and they did not disappoint. The area was quiet and very safe we were often out walking late. We loved the location- everything seemed to be a 20 minute brisk walk away (or you could take public transportation). The room was clean, bright, warm (we were in November) but also had A/C. They provided lots of toiletries. We stayed for 5 nights and noticed many other patrons stayed here for multiple nights as well. Would recommend this place for sure!

Lovely 4 day break for myself and my partner. It was a lovely, friendly hotel with some seating around the lobby. We used the roof terrace and thoroughky enjoyed it up there. Beds were firm and pillows were lovely and firm too. Some good gluten free options at breakfast and they were all presealed *bread, cakes, cereal* ehich was reassuring for a coeliac. We will go back again :)

Professional and super kind services. I appreciate Irene’s fantastic service all around and other stuff there are wonderful. Water pressure was at time not optimal, but the breakfast is great, their cappuccino is great. We took a bit larger room and we are happy we did that. The location is also great, close to trastevere and Piazza Navona. We are happy with our stay!

Very good hotel in a great location. We have stayed here before. But, this time, the AC was really bad. Temp in the room never got below 24 C. I know it was hot in Rome, but not that hot. We asked the staff about it, but they didn't (or couldn't) do anything. It was nice in the lobby, but I don't think they wanted us to sleep there. Really too bad because we like the hotel.

Horrible Experience
Horrible Experience. The air conditioning didn't work on a hot summer day of our arrival for a 2-day pre-paid stay and staff were non-responsive. We called the desk to ask for help and the clerk said he'd come as soon as he finished with a guest. 90 minutes later he hadn't come and we called and he said he couldn't come as he was the only staff on site and would come in an hour. 45 minutes later, we called back, and were told that clerk had left the site. The new clerk came to the room, acknowledged the heat was "unbearable" but couldn't fix the air conditioner. We asked to move to a different room and were told there was no other room. We explained we would check out in the morning and asked for a refund for the 2nd night's stay due needing to leave because of this situation, and were told this made sense, but that the owner needed to authorize it and they couldn't be reached until the following day. Not able to wait to hear because of concern we wouldn't find another place, we reserved another place. We checked out and, ultimately, the owner refused to refund the second night's stay. We texted with Hotels.com during the experience and they were sympathetic, but said that because it was a pre-paid stay, they were dependent on the owner's authorization, and without this wouldn't provide a refund. Beyond this, the rooms were disappointing: cheap mattress, a plastic desk chair that was more like a lawn chair, cheap plastic light fixtures, and a shower drain that backed up.

This is a very nice boutique hotel with nice rooms and a great staff. Everyone was friendly and so, so helpful. The location is a five minute walk to Campo di Fiori market place and some (many) wonderful restaurants. It is a short walk across the Ponte Sisto bridge to some great restaurants in Trastevere. Close to Piazza Navona, Pantheon.

I found the hotel to be quite nice and comfortable. The staff very friendly and helpful, especially the persons at the front desk. The room, though compact, was comfortable, clean and well maintained. The breakfast arrangements, though not luxurious, were adequate. Overall level of cleanliness and comfort was excellent. The location is very good -- not too far from many of the attractions, but in a relatively quiet and undisturbed locality.

Loved the location, very close to a lot of the attractions, but situated on a quiet little street, The hotel is not large or grand but small, quirky and clean. There was complimentary continental breakfast each morning, with plenty to choose from. Our room was a standard room, with fresh towels each day, well stocked fridge, tea and coffee facilities, hairdryer ect.

Pleasant personnel. place you would always come back to. Service to airport, though costs 50 euro, well worth it, and driver very punctual and helpful.

We enjoyed our stay very much. Friendly staff. The room was spacious and clean. The breakfast was REALLY good!! Much better than others we had in Italy. Also, the hotel’s location is great! The only things to improve were the beds and pillows that are a bit too hard and some noise coming from the hallway and floor upstairs.

Shocked that this could possibly be rated a 4 star hotel. The room was tiny, bedding was of the absolute lowest quality, the AC didn’t work. This is a 2.5 star hotel. The location is ok but we still took cabs to get places, despite being big walkers. The breakfast was the only part of our stat that was close to four stars. Shame on Expedia for marketing this hotel as four stars and charging the rate they did. Totally lost faith in booking on Expedia.

The room was lovely but the heater/ air conditioner never shut down and stopped no matter what temperature we put it on. It made it rather difficult to sleep with the constant noise. I did report the problem to the front desk when we checked out.

Good location. Nice breakfast
A very good buffet breakfast is available. The hotel is close to the river so some pleasant walks to be had. Close by is a very vibrant Piazza, which has a daily market that disappears at the end of the day, so you can enjoy one of the many restaurants there. We had little room for suitcases (2) as the room is smaller than any shown in the advertising photos. Our showerhead woudlnt stay up, making it a challenge to wash. Our travel companions had a broken fridge, tv and no bathroom light. It took a few days for all of that to be fixed.

Staff was amazing. The first day I felt like family. The front desk was so accommodating. Most of my interaction was with a staff called Irene. She was great. There was nothing she wouldn't help us with when asked. Staff in the breakfast hall was friendly and also accommodating. The day we left, it was before breakfast started. Simona, who was waitressing the day before said to me, don't worry, I'm here at 6:30 am. You will have breakfast before you leave today. The street the hotel was located on was very quiet, yet centrally located. When I go to Rome again, I will be staying at the Hotel Residenza Farnese.

We were welcomed as we were the only one there. The staff was superb. They helped us with all our needs which were directional needs in Rome. The front desk Irene was fabulous. It was my birthday day during my stay. She realized it because of my date on my passport. She left a bottle of wine for both of us. She was so kind in every way. Our breakfast hostess, Simona was fantastic as well. We had to leave early Tuesday morning for our flight. She made sure that we had breakfast waiting for us. Went out of her way. The gentleman we had for breakfast (do't remember his name) had ice ready for my fiance. He tore his acl Ice was ready for him every afternoon.

Lovely hotel with an excellent location.
A small but perfectly formed unique hotel with a location that enabled you to reach all the major landmarks by foot. Close to a myriad of little restaurants and boutique style shops, this hotel was an excellent choice. And - the breakfasts were really good too.

A boutique hotel in a perfect location
The hotel is pleasant and quiet, even though it is situated in a central location, in the wonderful historic area of Campo di Fiori etc. The design of the hotel is an eclectic mix of styles and eras, but it somehow works. The room was large and basic, but had everything that is needed. The only complaint is that the air conditioning system did not work. Better check if you come here during the summer.

Great location, very central. Attractions and piazzas containing places to eat are within walking distance. The only problem is that our room faced an alley and workers gathered there to work and talk. A bit loud unless you are an early riser as we are.

Quiet, convenient location and spotless
We had a lovely stay, the hotel is near the Campo di Fiori where there is a market and the square is surrounded by many places to eat, and it is very close to the river and if you cross the river you are in a lively area full of bars and restaurants, but being by the French Embassy it is in a quiet residential location which suited us. Piazza Navona is within easy reach and everywhere on the tourist map is just about walkable. The staff were lovely and helpful and all spoke excellent English.

Great Hotel in Great Location
Residenza Farnese was perfect for our stay in Rome. The room smelled a bit like air freshener when we walked in, and we had to air it out for a couple of hours, but other than that we had a pleasant experience. It was two blocks from Campo de Fiori and just minutes away from other sites.
