Hotel Teatro Pace

The hotel is very well situated, in a great area with lots of shops, restaurants and cafe/bars and an easy walk to many sites. The room (a superior single with balcony) was compact but was enough for a three day stay. It was clean and equipped with the basics. As someone traveling alone I felt safe and well situated. Breakfast wasn’t included in my booking but the hotel reception kindly recommended a nearby cafe which opens early and offers great coffee and a good selection of breakfast options.

When I arrived late in Rome in the evening, the reception called me to check I was still arriving to ensure I didn't miss them for checking in, as the front desk closes at 11pm (once you are checked in of course you can come and go at any time of the day). I appreciated this as I can't think of a more stressful experience than showing up to a hotel and finding you're unable to check in, late at night. The staff that I spoke to were absolutely brilliant. One of the staff at the front desk, Islam, gave me excellent recommendations for where to eat, and helped me book the entry to a site I wanted to see (there are a number of tour operators and it's easy to book something you may end up paying more for than you need). Another staff member at the front desk, whose name I didn't get, helped me book a train ticket on to Naples, and took the time to look at the costs on different operators, at different times, and compare travel times etc. Both were fantastic. The room itself was quite large! It had a funny layout, I assume because it's an old building. The bed was just a single bed, but was totally comfortable and adequate as I was travelling solo. The decor is slightly dated, but I found that quite charming to be honest. The location is right in the heart of the old city, very close to lots of lovely bars, restaurants and cafes. Finding it is a slight challenge, as the streets of the old city are quite twisty and meander, and depending on which direction you come from you may end up having to go down quite narrow and unlikely alleys. That's just Rome! But I'd recommend making sure you have internet access on your phone to make finding your way there as painless as possible.

Location is absolutely fantastic, right near piazza Navona, staff are very helpful, so much so we have booked more nights

The location could not have been better for this hotel, being a couple of minutes from Piazza Navona and only a comfortable walk away from the city's major monuments. We did not have breakfast at the hotel but there are some fantastic breakfast places only minutes away from the hotel as well. The room was comfortable and the bathroom was clean. The staff were accommodating even with our very late check-in.

Excellent location and in walking distance to all the main attractions. This hotel had a lovely feel and character and very friendly, knowledgeable staff. Plenty of cafes, bars and restaurants to enjoy nearby. About 15 minutes walk to an airport Shuttle bus service stop, which has regular buses to the airport, approx 5-6 euros each way, per person. Would return to this hotel and location again.
