I’m usually very particular when it comes to choosing hotels, but The First Dolce has truly become one of my all-time favorites! Everything was simply perfect—from the stunning marble bathroom to the warm, welcoming, and highly professional staff. The rooms are beautifully cozy, and every day we were surprised with little treats such as chocolates or freshly baked pastries. Having a private sauna in the bathroom was a real luxury and the best way to relax after long walks through the streets of Rome. The front desk team went above and beyond—helping us not only with recommendations, but also with tickets, dinner reservations, and so much more. A special thanks goes to the manager, Alina, who made our stay unforgettable. She made us feel completely at home, and now we are certain that The First Dolce will be the only hotel we choose whenever we come back to Rome.

So I have stayed in First Roma Arte a few times, and it was my first time staying at Dolce. This hotel is in one of the most convenient locations around Spanish steps. Rooms are very modern and convenient. Staffs are very kind and welcoming. One problem I had was with breakfast. It is a subjective opinion... it was not all that good. Otherwise a fantastic value for the money and highly recommended.
