Hotel Farnese

Hotel Farnese is a charming hotel in an older, converted building. It is not a modern wonder of technology, glass & chrome; it is a quiet reminder of a slower, gentler pace, where you can relax, take your time and enjoy your stay. Our room boasted a firm, very comfortable king size bed with Art Deco style sconces flanking the bed. A flat screen tv was well-situated for viewing from bed. An adjacent sitting room was a perfect spot to relax & read, or sort out the souvenirs purchased earlier in the day. The bathroom was spacious & lovely, with a tub & shower combo; the toilet & bidet were tucked off in their own alcove. There was a healthy pothos plant in the bathroom as well, adding a nice bit of greenery to the room. The entire suite was comfortable with an understated elegance; the perfect place to stay while in Rome. The breakfast buffet on the top floor was an unexpected treat; it included a variety of croissants and other pastries, kept soft, warm and fresh in a stainless lidded buffet pan. Scrambled eggs, thin slices of ham, cold sliced meats & cheeses were also on offer. Cold cereals, fresh juices, yogurt and cappuccino rounded out the daily service. The ladies tending the buffet and serving coffees & cappucinos were lovely, especially the woman with purple highlights in her hair. She was so welcoming and kind. The front desk staff were helpful & accommodating, storing our luggage with on arrival and departure, before check-in & after check-out. We had a memorable stay.

Beautiful boutique style hotel! Staff was amazing and the breakfast on the roof garden looking at Vatican City was unbelievable!

Lovely hotel . Friendly staff. Breakfast was mediocre but otherwise we loved our stay!

Clean room, extremely helpful and courteous staff, and location in a quiet neighborhood within walking distance of most major sights. We would stay there again.
