I don’t want to give this place an excellent mark because this will draw more people and they might raise their room price

Over the last 35 years, I have been in Rome 4 times and this one turned out to be the best as my Italian student found this gem near the train station, the Vatican and even the Olympic stadium where we saw Christiano Ronaldo played for Yuventus! The rooms are clean, quiet as it is set back from the busy road next to the river, and complimentary breakfast was sumptuous. The price of the room was quite a bit below what you would expect from such a quality stay. Five-star for sure in value. Would come back again on my next trip.

Breakfasts were excellent.
Dinner was so so, but convenient when we were very tired.
Staff were very helpful, especially Giorgia.
Wonderful 1 Michelin star restaurant, Enoteca La Torre next door.
Carrefour Express is just around the corner.

Excellent location, sure you’ll wake much ( 30 mins) to see the city attractions but in same time the hotel location is quite , also it’ll be more convenient if you have a car.
I liked so much , room is very good and the size is ok.

Only way to cool the room is to open the window. The smoking area for the hotel is directly below the window of our room. Shower leaks a lot on to floor. No restaurants anywhere nearby. No vending machines for drinks or snacks.

Hotel is located in a quiet area but less than 10min away from Metro.
The room I was in, was not up to standard 4star, single bed was uncomfortable, everytime I had shower water leaked all over the floor. Dinner at the Restaurant was hit and miss.

We really enjoyed our stay! Great pool, great breakfast, very clean! The only thing is that you definitely need a car to get there and away and parking in town is a bit hard to find. But overall a great hotel!

Hotel is nice, but like most other hotels our breakfast was not included. Vatican City is not very far from the hotel but other attractions are very far.

A beautiful small hotel, specifically would like to mention Geovanni at reception a most polite and helpful person, made our stay very pleasant. Anytime I go to Rome would definitely stay here again.

Leaky pipe(s) were reported on the first day of stay. They never were fixed. Water was leaking under the tub so that after each shower we had to collect water from the floor so it won't rush to the room.
Restaurant on the premise is not reliable. It was closed for dinner two times with no advance notice or sign that it will be closed. We had to search for places to eat late in the evening.
5.0
10 minutes walk from the metro - so near enough to everything but away from the noise and bustle of the touristy areas - can also walk to everywhere. Roof terrace bar was unfortunately closed when we were there, but it looks great. However, a nice garden to sit in. The rooms balcony was great. Service was superb - nothing was too much to ask for. Room was clean and perfectionally functional. Clean and well equipped. Id definitely stay there again. Thank you for a great stay. Grazie mille!

The location was perfect. Room was very nice, clean, and quiet. The breakfast was amazing. Very large, many options, outside courtyard was a sweet place to eat. I will come back. And I recommend this hotel to others.

We spent two weeks at the hotel and we found it extremely comfortable and very clean and we had a good size room and everything at breakfast was extremely good. We have especially appreciated having fresh-made cappuccinos every morning! Would stay there again in a minute.

The room was clean, but tight. Better suited for a short stay. The air conditioner in our room was very noisy, so it couldn't be turned up. In addition, the hotel automatically turns the air off at midnight, so you get hot. Especially if you take a shower! It takes a while for the heat and steam to go away. Can't open the window because it's on a very busy street and it got stuck open once, so afraid to touch it. Some of the staff was rude and/or would not look at you at all. Stingy with in room coffee and no coffee cream. Housekeeping was ok, did not refresh toilet paper and coffee last day. Had to use Kleenex. Very nice female at desk that was very helpful. Breakfast staff helpful. Hard to find someone to help you in lounge, always a wait. Breakfast was ok. Overall, an average stay at best.
Not far fromTrevi Fountain. Vatican City a cab or Uber ride at about 17 euros. Uber drivers much more professional and friendlier. Although, did have a good cab driver booked through the hotel. Arranged taxi rides are more professional drivers. 55E to airport by taxi, $65 w/ Uber.

Excellent hotel. Very friendly and professional staff. Nothing was too much trouble for them. Excellent location for seeing the sights. Would definitely recommend this hotel and would stay there again.

The hotel is nice. Check-in was so efficient, it seemed like a rush. Our room was ready early and we spent maybe 3 minutes at desk, which is really nice. Ludovica, at reception, was super helpful. She was a delight. The air conditioner went out at least once during the day and each of 3 nights. It is controlled by hotel staff, so by second night, we would call at 1-2 am and tell them we needed the a/c on. They did it. Breakfast was okay. Same eggs and bacon each day, with many other options. First day, there were 2 options for fresh fruit, but only 1 on subsequent days. Convenient 10 minute walk to metro. Not many dinning options in area. Overall, room was @4.

Good location, walking distance to the Internazionali tennis tournament. Pleasant hotel with good comfort, very good breakfast service. Nice rooms with balcony. Noisy street, but there is good acoustic insulation. Internal room-to-room insulation not quite as good.

the hotel is beautiful and in a good location, walking distance to the metro, a long walk along the river to the Vatican. A small grocery store just down the street. The add on breakfast was good and plentiful. The staff was very helpful and friendly. The room was clean and was kept so during our stay. I would stay again. The weather was very comfortable so we tried to keep our window open at night BUT, eventhough we were on the side of the hotel, the street noise was so loud we had to close the window.

This was a great hotel near the Vatican and other tourist attractions. The hotel was clean and the staff were extremely friendly. Rome is a very expensive city and I thought this hotel had a great product for a reasonable price.
2.0
To create a double room, they put two single beds together in a single room. There was no room to walk without one of us sitting on the bed. Additionally, the room was next to the lobby; not great.
There is no place to eat close by except the hotel restaurant.
3.0
Although the hotel was very clean and the bathroom was decent, the service stinks. The concierge and staff would answer our questions but wasnt happy about it. They acted as if we'd bother them when asking about restaurants and public transportation. The hotel is a non-smoking hotel but the smokers smoked in the front entrance so the smoke would be carried in through the lobby and if you opened your window or balcony door it would be carried into your room. Plus they didn't have a/c. Only heat in the winter time. I'm allergic to smoke and it was extremely bothersome. I left something behind and the front desk informed me that they can't just mail it to me, I'd have to send a delivery service to pick it up and make arrangements to ship it. I'm still on vacation so its a BIG inconvience. The room was very tiny and the bed was really hard. The location was okay but you had to walk quite a ways to see attractions. There was only one nice desk clerk there in the day but the rest had the stinkiest attitude. If this is a four star, I'd hate to stay at a three star.

Donna Laura Palace is a small hotel in a quiet, convenient location. Its facilities are probably best suited to the business traveller because the rooms, although very comfortable, have limited space for clothes and baggage. There was not any provision for tea/coffee making and limited space for relaxing. There were rooms with balconies and perhaps these were larger and offered space for relaxing.
Breakfast offered a wide variety of choice in its continental style. We chose this hotel because it was only one of a small number that offered breakfast.
Hotel Reception and Waiters were friendly, attentive and helpful.
5.0
The hotel was in an excellant location, just a short walk to the Subway and the shops. The Vatican is only minutes away which makes it an ideal location to use as a base for sightseeing. The staff were very helpful & spoke English which makes it easier if you don't speak Italian.
5.0
I was very impressed with the overall quality of this hotel. It is modern, clean and comfortable. The staff was attentive and friendly. The most unusal thing about this hotel is that it is quiet,which is unusal for a Roman hotel. I would stay here again and recommend it as a quality place to stay.
