River Palace Hotel

I checked in with my family and we found everything exceptional. I would defiantly recommend staying in River Palace Hotel. Thanks

This is an older quaint hotel but very clean, has AC, very large hot breakfast (optional), walking distance 15-20 mins to all the main attractions. Five min walk to the shopping district. Many restaurants walking distance. Small room but large bathroom, very nice sheets and towels, and very nice toiletries. Bed is very comfortable. Has a mini bar and snacks but no coffee/tea in the room which is the first time I see this in a 4 star hotel. Would be easy to put a kettle and tea / instant coffee packages. There is an excellent coffee shop / restaurant called Sensorio Coffee Lab about 100 m away (when you exit hotel, go left). This place gets 5 star google reviews. Coffee and chai tea, excellent sandwiches, they do brunch, desserts. It’s a real gem. We would stay at this hotel again only to be able to eat there again. The fire alarm went off for 45 mins at 6am because someone was smoking in their room. Well that got us up moving quickly. The streets of Rome were dead quiet - only 3-4 people at Trevi Fountain and Spanish Steps. So a blessing in disguise. The hotel has a bar, sitting area with baby grand piano, and a beautiful courtyard. The staff at the hotel were super nice especially Francisco.

We have stayed in this wonderful hotel 5 out of 6 times we have visited Roma. The hotel is beautiful and the majority of the staff are very pleasant and accommodating. Frederica in the bar is wonderful and asset to the hotel. She goes above and beyond to take care of you making you feel like family. Harold at the bar can be perhaps more pleasant and not so harsh. When we arrived early Georgio was an angel and got us into our room so we can rest due to the jet lag. He has always taken care of us like family.

Whilst we did not get the room we had booked on the first night we were upgraded to a junior suite. Therefore we were unable to settle into the hotel and unpack our cases as we needed to move the next morning by 11.30. However I preferred the room we had booked on the second night which made up for the inconvenience. The outside of the hotel lets it down and does not do it justice as it is a lovely hotel inside. My partner celebrated his birthday during our stay and there was a bottle of wine and card in the room when we returned, a nice touch. The attention to detail from closing the curtains at night, turning down the bed, leaving sweets and the weather forecast card. The breakfast was excellent and set you up for the day, with lovely calm staff. When I go back to Rome I will definitely go back to this hotel.
