The Rome Cavalieri was the perfect destination wedding venue, and the perfect stay in Rome. We cannot recommend the Rome Cavalieri enough. It is the most gorgeous hotel with incredible grounds, and incomparable views of Rome. As someone who has spent a lot of time in Rome, I cannot recommend Rome Cavalieri enough. Wedding planning stage: From booking through after our event, the staff who assisted us (Luigi and Serena- you are the BEST) with our wedding went above and beyond to make our event perfect. Prior to booking, they walked us through all the details of what was included with the different options and answered questions that helped us decide what we wanted to book. Booking our event was clear and easy. After booking, they promptly replied to every question we had, provided clear answers that went beyond our questions in an effort to really walk us through every detail. We had multiple calls to talk through details and they could not have been more patient and kind throughout the process. They went above our expectations and also mentioned other options we might like for our event without ever making us feel like there was an expectation that we should take their recommendations or ideas (this is something all of our married friends have complained about- feeling pressured- and we are thankful our experience truly could not be the opposite). They genuinely just wanted us to be able to have everything we could want. We also asked for vendor recommendations and they quickly provided us with recommendations. The pricing was clearly stated and there were no hidden costs. The pricing from the beginning seemed incredibly reasonable (and after our event, I can reflect on this and say with confidently that what we received and had on our wedding day for this price was truly incredible- the value is unmatched). In the days leading up to the event, they were extremely attentive and accessible to us. They walked us through the venue for the first time and took items for us that we wanted to use during the event. When we say they took care of everything for us, we truly mean they took care of everything for us!! We didn't need a wedding planner or coordinator because they were so on top of it. Wedding day: Rome Cavalieri surpassed all expectations. The staff was attentive during every stage of the night. They brought out an activity and special meals for the kids and another guest who they could tell might want it. I don't recall seeing a single empty cup or dirty plate. The food and drinks were promptly provided during the various courses throughout the night. There was never too long of lines for anything. As the bride, I did not have a single concern throughout the day because I knew they were on top of it, and they were even more on top of it than I could have ever imagined. They kept us on schedule when I lost all track of time. They had signs everywhere for guests to easily find where to go. Food and drinks were ready immediately upon guest arrival. The food and drinks were INCREDIBLE. And there was sooooo much of it. Guests raved about the appetizers and the multi-course dinner. The wedding cake was the best cake we have ever had and was gorgeous. The dessert buffet was incredible but our guests could not get enough of the food, that they were just stuffing themselves at that point because they could not get enough. Our guests will forever be talking about this wedding because of the incredible views, incredible food/drinks, and incredible service. We feel beyond lucky to have had our wedding here. The spaces our event was in were impeccable. All the linens and table settings were gorgeous and in perfect order. We truly cannot believe how perfect it was, and perfect is the only way to describe it. This venue is a no brainer. We could go on and on about how perfect the Rome Cavalieri is. If you are considering the hotel for your next stay or event, DO IT. Hotel room: Our room and the rooms the guests stayed in were beyond compare. Truly, we will be comparing every hotel to the Rome Cavalieri for the rest of our lives, and I fear nothing will ever top this stay. The rooms were beautiful and comfortable. We did not want to leave! We already want to go back for our first anniversary.

Amongst the most elegant and understated luxury hotels we have ever stayed. From the moment you walk into the grand reception area to be greeted by the impeccable staff, you know you are on to something special at this place. This was a special trip to celebrate a 50th birthday and I don’t tink we could have picked a better venue. The rooms were well appointed, very spacious and classically designed. If you have a residential view you will likely have a large communications mast in your sights. That wasn’t great - it didn’t spoil our experience and you can always pay extra for a city or pool view room. They outdoor pool area was immaculate and abolition no fighting for sunbeds here. Simply wait for the pool attendants to find and prepare you beds, then enjoy the sun and good vibes. The free shuttle bus into Rome was great - saved circa 25 euros a go on taxis, and was super convenient. Breakfast was an amazing spread of fresh food with lots of choice to suit all tastes. There’s a wing of rhe main lobby dedicated to the hotel’s private art collection, which is worth an estimated £28m. Make sure you check out the Odysseus Finds Achilles Among the Daughters of Lycomedes, painted by Giovanni Battista Tiepolo around 1725. It’s begging tough glass and worth a small fortune. Other things of note - the gym is the best equipped I’ve ever seen in a hotel. The complimentary cans of ice cold water by the pool are a nice touch. The lobby bar is very pleasant - but expect to pay Cavalieri prices for a drink. Same round the pool. 11 euros for a small beer. 16 euros for a bowl of fries. All said, this was the most fantastic hotel and nothing was too much trouble for the staff, We will be back.

From the minute you get out of the car you are greeted right away and you just know that you will be pampered after long days of walking and seeing the sites. The hotel is under a little remodeling but you barely know they are working. The rooms are spacious, even the regular rooms which I had using my points. The staff goes out of their way to make you feel at home. Always asking if you need anything or just a small conversation while waiting for the shuttle. The shuttle is a nice perk since you are quite way away from the hustle and bustle of downtown. The only thing I would change is that the shuttle times to pick you up were a bit later since you’ll have to get a taxi if you want to eat in the city after 6:30pm and believe me the Taxi or Uber are a bit pricey. The pool is amazing and it came in nice since it was so hot and you even get to use the indoor pool later in the day. The attendants are great and you always have a cold drink when needed. If you work out, the fitness room will have everything you need. Don’t skip breakfast. It was the highlight of the day. So much to choose from and the staff were amazing. If you want to relax and enjoy some peace and quiet book a room, take a walk around the grounds. This place was just what I needed. Thank you to all the staff. If I come back you will definitely see me again.

Without a doubt, this is one of our favourite hotels. We always book a room that has access to the Imperial Club. The service which we receive throughout the hotel is fantastic. All the staff in the Imperial Club are amazing. Everyone is so kind and most professional. It was a pleasure to meet again Marko who assisted us so much. A kind and delightful individual who provided outstanding service and care. The rooms are being remoulded and although we were told there were no rooms with a view of Rome, the kind man who checked us in was able to find a room with an excellent view of Rome. We have stayed at this hotel numerous times, but our work associates were visiting Rome for the first time. So very appreciated by us that they received this room. Everything was excellent, never encountered a problem. Looking forward to our next stay at the Cavalieri Hotel. We are all very grateful. With sincere thanksgiving
