    It would have been nice to have a lounge to sit for a late night beaverage, as the pool bar closed at 6.30pm.

    The size of the room was excellent, very comfortable. Although breakfast was supplied, we still thought having cooking facilties was a real bonus. We ate in a few nights as it was raining.

    The breakfast could use a little variation for longer stays. The poolbar/restaurant has very little food options and price/quality are way off.

    Great and spacious studioroom, fantastic pool and a nice location.

    The trams do run from early in the morning until late at night and as our room faced the main street we were aware of them thundering past. This didn't bother us as we live near an airport and are used to some noise.

    The Aldovandi Suites are situated a 20 minute walk through the Villa Borghese Park to the city gates or a 15 minute walk from Flaminio Metro Station. Buses and trams pass directly past the hotel but, not directly into the city centre. Taxis appear to be plentiful. Our room was located on the ground floor facing the main street. The room was large and spacious, it had a kitchenette and was well equipped with enough cutlery, crockery and utensils for our stay. The bed was comfortable and we slept well. The bathroom was modern, bath with overhead shower. The room was cleaned and towels were changed everyday. The pool area is quite large with plenty of sunbeds. The pool bar serves snacks but, we didn't sample these. The breakfast offered an excellent selection of pastries, fruit, juices, continental meats and cheeses, tea and coffee. There are also a limited selection of hot food options available The staff we met were courteous and helpful. We enjoyed our stay.

    They had lost our key room upon our arrival. Parking a car nearby can be a real challenge. The bathroom needs renovation and the water pressure is quite low for a nice shower.

    What best to stay by the pool in the middle of Rome when the temperature is so high that it discourages you from visiting the Coliseum? The room was fine, the breakfast excellent, the pool very welcoming with a nice bar by its side. It was a nice way to stay in Rome with scorching temperature and not to have to hide in a room with AC all day...

    The property is a little old in its decor, but aside from that, I have nothing bad to say. We loved our stay here.

    This is a great choice for a visit to Rome. The rooms were very big; my kids were so excited that they had their own room and (twin) beds. It's like an apartment so you have a kitchen, which is nice for a longer stay, and there is a separate entrance so you can enter through the hotel lobby or through your own private door. Our suite had a cute little patio that you could exit to get to the pool. The pool was amazing; after a hot day of touring around Rome, it was wonderful to be able to cool off in the pool before dinner. The breakfast was standard hotel breakfast fare but was plenty of food. The staff were nice and helpful. The hotel is about a 20 minute walk to the gates of Rome, but it is through a beautiful park, which made the walk a little easier as one of the few places in Rome with trees and some shade. It's also right next to the zoo and the modern art museum so there are activities nearby as well if you don't feel like walking as much one day. When we were there, there was a pop up bar with a DJ that operated in the park across the street from the art museum, which was a fun addition for a quick drink before heading back to the hotel.

    I chose this as it had a pool, but it is quite a walk to the metro. There is a bus then 5-10 minute walk to get to a metro from outside the hotel, but a taxi would have cost approx €40 from the centre to the hotel. We did walk tge first day from the hotel to metro, but in 38° not the best idea, but the weather is certainly nothing to do with the hotel.

    The welcome. The rooms were beautiful and the pool was large enough. The zoo and Bioparc was beautiful and basically over the road.

    The only thing slight drawback is the location. Although you can use public transport or get a taxi in to town. I’m not saying the location is bad it’s just slightly out of the city. Was fine for us as we wanted somewhere in between the city and stadio olympico.

    Great to have the separate area for my child to sleep rather than share our room!. Large room, high ceilings plus kitchen area. Excellent swimming pool and great to have breakfast included!

    Food at the bar was very poor. The pool man was strict - we were told not to jump into the pool (which is very very deep). The sign said no diving... But apparently feet first jumps in 35 degrees heat are also forbidden.

    So clean, wonderful room with plenty of space and very comfy bed. Service was very good. Pool area is managed well and felt safe and calm. The location is fab.

    It is a fairly long walk into the city centre but ok if you are fairly fit and you can get a taxi for a reasonable price.

    A peaceful and friendly retreat from the bustle of Rome. Staff were amazing. We had a spacious suite with kitchen, table and plenty of room. The swimming pool was lovely with lots of trees around. We walked into most of the tourist attractions through the park. It was a good walk but made more pleasant by the pretty gardens of the park. There are some good places to eat locally around the hotel, about 10 minutes walk. The area is mainly residential. There are also some supermarkets if you want to cater for yourself. Breakfast was excellent.

    No AC. The booking claims there is AC but there is not. Without that I can't score this booking very high. Lucky for us was that we were here before the summer heat.

    Bus links not good as always changes recommended and times similar to walking to main city ..invariably around 45 mins. Although walk was nice through Borghese Gardens and often used taxis.

    Pre arrival contact was good and clear and the hotel sorted out airport transfer which was more economical than online. All went well there. Staff very friendly and professional. Room was spacious suite and good facilities. Breakfast lovely in a nice setting. Used the pool once. Was a quiet and very nice neighbourhood, but at a cost- see below. Taxis good and all metered for travel around

    No major CONS. Just a few small notes to be shared: a bit small variety of breakfast with no differences of hot meals within all three mornings. At least one small bottle of water could be left in the room for free - that's essential need for us, humans and doesn't cost much. Most important - Please treat your own staff equally as guest: if they use elevator - let them proceed to their destination. We can wait for it to come back. Cleaning personnel doesn't need to step out with all the heavy racks just to SERVE us. We saw other guest and understand where this comes from, but slavery is far far back in history books. These cheap pocket "Lords" can act their hierarchies in their own houses :) All of your staff is doing excellent work!

    Very spacious and clean room with all necessary facilities. Location is quiet even being close to busy street and local bus stop is right in front of the hotel (all public transport is promt, simple to use and very cheap comparing to other big cities). Breakfast was tasty. Staff extremely polite and willing to help. Good shower pressure. There's also small kitchenette which was very convenient after binging Italian treats. Definitely would come back and highly recommend to others. Keep it up!

    Thought the swimming pool might open two days before we left but it didn’t and the outside seating area was closed off. Air conditioning, advertised at the time of booking wasn’t available, but I think this was out of the hotel’s control. Rome regulated. Kitchenette fixtures and fittings were showing their age and could do with a update.The only mirror was in the bathroom. One in the living area would have been useful.

    Comfortable room with nice bathroom. Good breakfasts. Friendly and helpful staff. Lovely old building which was spotlessly clean. Overall, a good stay in the location we wanted.
