Hotel Lord Byron

We stayed for a couple of days at the Hotel Lord Byron. We stayed at the hotel’s sister property, Hotel Regency in Florence, a couple years ago and had a wonderful time. The hotel is located in a residential suburb (outside the city walls) near a lot of posh embassy buildings. Having been to Rome several times over the past two years, this was a refreshing change. The ability to walk through the Villa Borghese Gardens into Rome was just lovely. The area is very quiet and it was actually pretty easy to get to restaurants and sights we wanted to visit, but we’ve been to Rome several times. The food and beverages at the hotel are simply exceptional. The quality of the food in the restaurant for breakfast was just sublime. The service each morning was efficient and friendly. The bellhop and doormen were very helpful. Special shout out to Cheema, who was so friendly, kind and helpful. As others have noted, the hotel is really in need of some renovations. We stayed in the family room for a couple of nights and the room was straight out of the 1990s. Watermelon carpet, chipped furniture, bathroom fixtures were literally falling apart. Additionally, there was some noise from pipes that were loud all night. We were a little surprised by the condition of the room since we understand that the hotel was shut down for renovations from January 2025 through March 2025. We had assumed that they had updated their rooms, but that’s clearly not the case. We let management know after our first night, but since we only had one more night at the hotel, we didn’t move rooms. I would note that they were accommodating and sympathetic. The hotel is undertaking a renovation (we could hear the noise coming from the upper floors). Please do keep that in mind, as I think the renovations will take some time given the extent required. All in all, I think the service was very friendly, the location was nice, but the condition of the room left a lot to be desired. We would consider returning, but only once renovations are completed.

this was a lovely hotel.. the best quality was the incredibly personable and helpful staff. the rooms were comfortable and well appointed... my only criticism is that the rooms are getting a bit dated but that is more than made up for by the intimacy and warmth of the facility and the staff.. the hotel is a bit out of the tourist area but that was a good thing as it is in a quiet neighborhood

I only wrote reviews for two reason, either worse or great . Hotel Lord Byron is one of the best hotel I stayed in Rome . Long ago I stayed in Lord Byron on 11 November 2015 for my birthday trip for dream hotels . It’s not a big Fancy hotel but a posh Boutique hotel with its inner sophistication. The concierge sent me a champagne as a birthday gift in the room before I check in . Every corner of the hotels has delicate balances with Italian luxurious textures, massive furniture and works of might be contradicting the concept of minimalism. Furthermore, balanced by spatial orientation and ample natural light. Service was absolutely great without mentioning. The breakfast were simple but variety different Italian delicacy. I won’t provide photo , cause other reviewers already posted . But yet , once you go , you won’t regret.

Simply cannot be trusted. There is no way this hotel should be in SLH. They just do not care about guests and will do everything to overcharge. And the rooms are not nearly as nice as they appear in the photos. There are so many nice hotels in Rome to choose from - don’t ruin your stay.

We enjoyed our stay in this luxurious boutique hotel. The room was clean, spacious, tasteful decorated and well maintained. Hotel wifi worked seamlessly and hotel staff were helpful and friendly. Breakfast was excellent, with a generous spread, and the dining hall was well-appointed. Renato helped us when we discovered that our foreign USB phone charger didn’t work. We highly recommend this hotel.
