Hotel d'Inghilterra - STARHOTELS Collezione

We chose this hotel to celebrate our anniversary and first time in Rome based on its quality and location. We booked through Hilton which offers upgrades based on availability. Instead of that being discussed at check-in they tried to sell us an upgrade. It was very strange to have the first conversation at check-in be a sales pitch. Especially without first discussing our room options. We arrived early so we left our bags and went to our Vatican Tour. When we returned to check-in to our room they told us we didn’t have a reservation. Overall the check-in process was not the quality I would expect from a hotel of this type. Once we were checked-in the room itself was perfect. They also gifted us a cake to celebrate our 10 year wedding anniversary. We were only able to take advantage of the breakfast one of our two days due to our Tour schedule but it was a great way to start the day. If we return to Rome we would look to stay here again.

I can only speak of the lunch experience ( unfortunately, as I was not a guest at this gorgeous hotel) which was delightful. I was drawn to sit outside this elegant place, by the lovely music and the shaded tables. We shared a delicious prawn & vegetable frittura and some wine. The staff were friendly and professional. The toilets are Art Deco glamour. The cocktails on the rooftop terrace were delicious and accompanied by tasty amuse-bouche canapés. The security guard Dario was so kind and found my sunglasses and booked us our taxi. I'd love to stay one day to luxuriate in that cosy, stunning palace.

Hotel d’Inghilterra was exactly what we needed during our five-night stay in Rome. In a city that can feel chaotic, crowded, and especially hot in July, this hotel became our peaceful retreat between adventures. We were celebrating an anniversary, and from the moment we arrived, the entire team made us feel incredibly welcomed. After sharing the occasion with the hotel prior to arrival, we were delighted to be upgraded to a beautiful superior room, where we found a delicious anniversary chocolate cake waiting for us. It was such a thoughtful gesture and a perfect example of the attention to detail throughout our stay. The hotel beautifully balances the charm and history of a classic Roman grand hotel with the comfort and standards of a luxury boutique property. The furnishings were beautiful, the marble bathroom was stunning, and the deep soaking tub with multiple showerheads was the perfect place to relax after long days exploring the city. The bed deserves its own mention. It was genuinely the most comfortable hotel bed I have ever slept in. I may actually need to write to the hotel to find out what mattress they use because I have never slept that well while traveling. The location was fantastic. We walked or used bicycles to explore nearly all of the historic center of Rome. The only times we needed taxis were when the July heat became too much and we needed to reach farther destinations like the Colosseum and Trastevere. Coming back to such a comfortable, cool room after exploring Rome was a true luxury. The service is where Hotel d’Inghilterra truly shines. Xenia, who hosted breakfast each morning, was an absolute delight. She was warm, insightful, and genuinely interested in our days. As someone who works in film, I especially enjoyed talking with her about movies and hearing her recommendations for films that might inspire us. She remembered what we were doing and was excited to hear about our adventures, including our truffle hunting day in the countryside. She is exactly the kind of person who makes a hotel stay memorable. Alessia at the front desk and the rest of the reception team were wonderful as well. Everyone was helpful, gracious, and professional. Even team members who were still training had the perfect demeanor and made us feel completely taken care of. The doormen were consistently friendly and eager to help every time we came and went. Housekeeping was impeccable. One of my favorite examples of the hotel’s attention to detail was returning to our room each day and finding my phone charging cable neatly coiled with a custom hotel cable wrap. It is such a small thing, but those little touches communicate a lot about the level of care that goes into the guest experience. Breakfast was a wonderful start to each day and a highlight of the stay. We loved beginning our mornings with fresh fruit, vegetables, and the beautiful pastry tower that accompanied breakfast. On our first morning, our lattes were not quite as hot as we would have liked. What impressed me was that the restaurant team noticed we were not drinking them and wanted to understand why. They made sure every coffee afterward arrived at the perfect temperature. We also enjoyed the rooftop, which has an incredible view over Rome. The cocktails are definitely on the pricier side, but their signature cocktail, a sparkling wine cocktail with fig liqueur, may be the best cocktail I have ever had. A note for future guests: if you plan to eat on the rooftop, be aware that the yellow jackets are also interested in the experience! The staff was aware of the issue and did everything they could to help while we were there. The only thing we wish we had planned differently was booking spa treatments earlier. The spa looked beautiful, but unfortunately there were no massage appointments available during our stay. That is something we will arrange in advance next time. Hotel d’Inghilterra gave us the perfect combination of Roman history, modern luxury, and genuinely thoughtful hospitality. After long, hot days exploring one of the world’s greatest cities, it felt wonderful to return to a place that was calm, elegant, and welcoming. I would absolutely stay here again if or when returning to Rome.

Stayed three nights as a post cruise stay in Rome. What a lovely hotel! From the doorman getting you wearing hat and tails to the beautiful uniforms for the staff, this place is class all the way. Beautifully appointed property with high end amenities and finishes. Room was a bit small however that is common in Rome. The amenities and custom touches were what made this a great stay. Breakfast was lovely, not a huge selection however refined and well delivered presentation from a two tiered pastry tray for each table to the most delicious cappuccino! Staff was lovely and the service was top notch.

I can only recommend this charming place, the location is so central and the staff is fantastic from the reception to the breakfast in the morning. You really feel at home here and the rooms are very clean, cozy and calm. I will definitely come back. Thank you.
