Great hotel in Rome.
A lovely sray in Rome. Located a short walk to the main train station with plenty of options for transport to all the places you may want to go. The team at the hotel were fantastic. When we arrive it was late and they helped us get some food and also checked us in quickly. The room was very comfortbale and a nice size.

Beautiful hotel! Perfect from walking to downtown Rome without the crazyness of all the tourist walking in the main streets. Is located 5 minutes away from Roma Termini, so you can catch all the trains there. The rooms are beautiful and feels really new and fancy. I will come back.

By far my favorite stay in Europe so far. The hotel is beautiful, with a prime location. My room had a spectacular view and was very spacious. Equipped with any/all amenities I needed. The staff is phenomenal—very warm and hospitable, did not hesitate to assist me in any way. They were always eager to help and went out of their way to communicate that. 10/10 will stay here again—I’ve already recommended to my friends!

I would never stay here agian. There is a party bar (MASA) on the top floor of this hotel and the drunken patrons like to holler and shout in the hallways of the hotel at 1am (seems to be the Italian thing to do). The room cleaning staff left all of the dirty dishes in our room, the towels were dirty, the bed was like a sheet of plywood…there are to many reasons to list here. We booked the Major Hotel transfer from the cruise terminal in Civitavecchia to Rome (this is about 1 hour drive). The driver did not show up at the Norwegian Terminal to pick us up as per the contract. After several phone calls, text messages and his failure to show up, we were forced to take our luggage over to a shuttle bus and ride that out to Piazzale Largo Della Pace and find our driver. There is a small toll fee to enter this area of the port, but the driver refused to pay this, all the other drivers, buses and taxis were inside the port right beside the Norwegian Terminal doors, dock side. This delayed our arrival in Rome for scheduled event at 12 noon. I would never stay here again.

Monti was a new area for us to explore in Rome, which was a welcome change and it is a nice area with many dining options including local restaurants that don't cater as much to tourists so you are getting a local eating experience. While it is a 10 minute walk to the train station, its not that close that you should be concerned about noise or safety (Rome is pretty safe all over). There was a little noise in the early AM (6:30-7:30am) on one of our days that sounded like garbage cans being moved around, but it was unclear whether that came from the hotel or an adjacent building. It is a big city after all and noise is inevitable.
