FortySeven Hotel Rome

This hotel exceeded my high expectations in many different ways. I loved having a suite with quite spacious balcony view of the temples and the Aventine hill. The location is wonderful. You will hear some traffic noise during the rush hours, but otherwise it's quiet. The bed and pillows were my favorite of any - soft, 100% cotton sheets, and cotton or feather pillows instead of wretched foam. I had room service for breakfast and lunch - fantastic for a sunny hour on the balcony outside. Walking distance to the Tiber, Circus Maximus and Colosseum, Trastevere is just across the nearby bridge. My view was of the two Greek temples and their elegant little park. Concierge help was outstanding, but so too was the help from cleaning staff when I accidentally came "home" just as they were stripping the bed. Everyone working for this hotel was helpful and seemed happy to be working there. I loved being just far enough away from the tourist centre of town that I didn't have to pass through chaos on the streets every morning - but close enough that I could walk to most every major attraction. I would return to this gracious hotel without a moment's hesitation.

We were excited to stay at 47 Boutique Hotel in Rome based on reviews and were appreciative of the staff when there was a booking mix-up. Unfortunately, our experience was not what we were hoping. While the hotel was accommodating, and the location of the hotel was convenient, the room itself was a disappointment. When we arrived in our room, it smelled musty and sour. Turning on the air helped and we did not feel the need to change rooms having arrived later in the evening. The next day seemed to be better; however, we kept the air and the fan on all night. On our final night, however, the sewage smell was so strong in our room that we were required to shut the door to the bathroom in order to sleep. We were leaving early the next morning and did not see the point in moving to another room for a mere few hours. When bringing it up to the front desk upon our departure, there was little to any response. I even expressed the health concerns that could be present from the toxic smell. This was in addition to our neighbors above us moving furniture across the floor well into the midnight hour which required us to go downstairs to notify the front desk because the phone would not connect to the front desk, concierge or housekeeping. While not the hotels’ fault that the occupants above us were noisy, acknowledging that there may need to be consideration of the moveable furniture on the floors below and a working phone. Certainly, an unfortunate end to our 4 night stay and left me feeling there was not value for the money we paid.

We bookended our weeklong trip to Sicily with weekend stays at 47 Boutique Hotel. Superb choice for tourists or business travelers. Lovely rooms, terrific and helpful staff, quality breakfast, and excellent location just a short walk from Trastevere, Testaccio, the Forum, and other neighborhoods/sites. Updated gym tucked away in the basement in case you need to work off some pasta and gelato.

I had such a great experience at this hotel! The room was super clean, comfortable, and had everything I needed. The bed was probably the most comfortable bed that I've ever slept on in a hotel and my husband is very picky. I really appreciated the extra window coverings and they helped block out the street noise. The staff were absolutely amazing and attentive. Everyone was so friendly and helpful. They gave great tips on things to see, recommended some fantastic restaurants, and even made reservations for me. It really felt like they went out of their way to make sure I had a great stay. The rooftop restaurant was another highlight — delicious food, beautiful views, and a relaxing vibe. The location was great too, close to so many sights and easy to walk everywhere. Overall, I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I’d definitely stay here again next time I’m in Rome!

Really enjoyed our stay. We found the room well equipped, the bed very comfortable and best of all was the view from the window of an ancient temple. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. The breakfast had a good range of items hot and cold (maritozzi, buns stuffed with whipped cream, are the best start for a busy day of sightseeing!) We enjoyed drinks on the rooftop bar good cocktails if a bit pricey. Good choice of restaurants and bars a few minutes walk away by the Circus Maximus and in Trastevere. We often took a bus from outside the hotel three or four stops to the main tourist sites. The road outside is quite noisy but we found it fine with the blind down and window closed.
