Residenza di Ripetta

I had mixed opinions on this hotel before i booked it as there were some bad reviews. However, as soon as we arrived, i could not understand why people had written some bad reviews. We were greeted with a smile and taken to a suite which was immaculate. The hotel is old but that is what gives it the character and there is a lot of history regarding the building which is reflected by the interior design. The room was big , clean and had hot water so what more can you ask for. If i was to be picky, then i would criticise that the heating did not work but they got some heaters for us. The location is perfect and everything is walking distance which is great. the only problem i had was that it was 2 minutes away from the famous street with all the designer shops and my wife always seemed to walk in that direction in order to go everywhere. We celebrated our birthdays there and they provided us a bottle of chilled prosecco on both nights which was a lovely gesture. Breakfast was good and i would really recommend the restaurant Ad Hoc which is literally opposite the hotel. Overall, a lovely hotel with great friendly staff and a great location!

Hotel is so close to all to all attractions, surrounded by good restaurants and cafes. Friendly staff always, excellent breakfast and very comfortable beds. Best option in Rome! Great selection of shops all around too.

Was in Rome for a few days to celebrate my wife's 50th birthday. Hotel was perfect for our needs, central location good breakfast clean and excellent staff. The room overlooked a central courtyard so was away from the noise of traffic, the metro and tram network was just a few minutes walk, shops bars restaurant's cafe's on your doorstep. A good selection of food at breakfast, coffee was good and a good selection of teas. Staff at the reception and in the breakfast room were most helpful and to top it off a complimentary bottle of wine and chocolates for my wife's birthday was delivered to our room. It's not a case of if we would stop there again but when.

Great central location on Via di Ripetta just 3 minutes walking from Piazza del Popolo. Rather quirky rooms - ours had a kitchenette in a cupboard (no utensils), a seating (TV) dining area, a bedroom behind some screens and a bathroom off the bedroom. The room was an inside room and the window opened onto a central courtyard which we preferred as you didn't get any street noise. We did have some noise however as we had the window completely open for our entire stay to try and get some air to circulate around the room. The A/C was switched off for the season by the hotel management and the bathroom had a radiator and underfloor heating that belched uncontrollable heat. It was all a tad airless. Breakfast was excellent with good coffee; the wifi worked, well most of the time and the front desk staff were very helpful. Something very likeable about the place and this was our 2nd visit - we hope to be back again!

I've stayed for work for a couple of days, and I wasn't impressed with the cleanness of the room. I believe I had a suite or an apartment suite (with the leaving room) and the carpet almost all over the room was dirty, old and full of stains. The bathroom as well, pretty old and not very clean. The reception and the rooms where breakfast or lunch was served, were great. Food was really good. Location was great. In few minutes you are at Piazza del Popolo, and you can really see and experience what the center of Rome can offer. Would I recommend this hotel? Yes for the location as is central, but the rooms for me are really old, ugly and dirty. Room value: 4 Hotel Value: 7 Food Value: 8
