Suites Farnese Design Hotel

Hotel with great location. But no personal reception. We arrived late at night with only electronic service. We had a little trouble checking in. After we were installed, the service was ok. It is possible to walk to the Vatican (15 min walk). It has nearby metro station as well as restaurants and markets.

Great location, very large functional and well maintained room. Bathroom recently renovated and very comfortable. Lean and precise management. Excellent breakfast served a few steps from the property. In the area you will find anything: bars, restaurants, supermarket, hairdresser, pharmacy and various shops. Convenient also for the subway

Suite Farnese Design via Alessandro Farnese 8, whilst in a quiet, sophisticated area of Roma is within comfortable walking distance of many iconic Roman tourist spots and local restaurants. After successfully accessing the apartment via the multi-stage access procedure you will sleep safely in the knowledge of your invulnerability to the many criminal elements of the Italian populace. The reception is serviced from 8.00 - 1.00 to assist the less competent with access. We had room 302 and other rooms may have a different configuration. The apartment (room) was large with a very large, integral bedroom and living area and a small but functional bathroom. The decor and furniture is of “antiquity” style, with the wallpaper behind the extra large bed a blend of old Rome and an incipient mould look. The furniture is old World, with the corner desk successfully hiding a small fridge. Tea and coffee making facilities are provided and a second sofa bed for the extended family. With a relatively low expenditure, the decor of the room could be significantly enhanced. Whilst the bathroom is small, it is functional, although the shower will require assistance from your wife or a Mensa level IQ to operate. Breakfast is provided in another hotel, Hotel 21, within 200M of the Suite. The breakfast was excellent, with an extensive range of hot and cold fare to cater for both the “Western” and Mediterranean diet, in a rooftop dining area. There is a supermarket within walking distance; turn left on leaving the building, first right and the supermarket is about 400M on your left. A small, invisible entrance and make sure you check your receipt as overcharging may be endemic. Whilst this review may sound a bit negative, the key question is “would we book this accommodation again.” A definite YES so it must be rated RECOMMEND.
