Hotel Albergo del Senato - Rome

My Wife and I have just returned from what has been an excellent stay in Rome at the del Senato. We were first met outside the door by a Porter who welcomed us warmly and helped us with our luggage from the cab. The reception area gave an excellent first impression, which was continued throughout the whole establishment. The reception Staff were first rate. They welcomed us by name, booking us in efficiently. At all times throughout the holiday we understood that nothing was too much trouble; the enjoyment of our stay was their complete raison d'etre. The del Senato is perfectly located. The view from our room overlooking the Piazza was just magical. We found the whole of the historical centre of Rome to be within comfortable walking distance. Perfect. Both our room and en suite were very pleasingly decorated and maintained to a superbly high standard. Our maid was first rate. The room was kept sparking clean, beds were turned down in the evening for our return. We always looked forward to breakfasts. Dining room staff were turned out immaculately. They were both welcoming and efficient. The dining room was decorated with style, which added to the pleasurable quiet calm atmosphere. We would be confident to recommend the del Senato as very high quality accommodation to anyone wishing to visit the historical centre of Rome.

Wonderful location, friendly staff. Room a little small. Breakfast limited and uninspiring.

One of the triple rooms was VERY HOT and never cooled off. There are no electrical outlets in the bathrooms for anything but a razor. Very uncomfortable. Other than these two things it is a very nice hotel. This is my third time to stay here.

The hotel was recommneded through trip advisor and it was a fantastic recommnedation the location of the hotel so central to everything the service was brilliant from checkin to checkout the rooms were spotless and so quiet even whilst the refurbishment was going on, my partner said the only thing she would like to have seen is more selection at breakfast but apart from that I would recommned this hotel and would return

Excellent location, both for ease of sightseeing, and for view of Pantheon and the Piazza della Rotonda. Friendly, professional staff, helpful with advice when asked. Housekeeping friendly and competent.

This hotel is located next to the Pantheon in Rome, Italy. The accommodations were beautiful and clean and well worth the money we paid. My husband arrived sick and the staff quickly cleaned a room and let him move in 4 hours early and offered to help us locate a doctor if needed. Luckily it was just a 24 hour thing. We had easy access to all the sites and enjoyed a wonderful stay in Rome with our children. The breakfast food served was simple but very delicious. Overall the service was exceptional.

This was a fantastic hotel in a brilliant location. Rooms well appointed if a little small. Great bathrooms! Excellent staff who were very helpful. Great breakfast. Intimate atmosphere with everything Rome has to offer within walking distance. Great to explore city early in morning, return for rest and cup of tea in afternoon, ready to set out again in the evening. We had a fantasic four nights and would definitely return.

A beutiful hotel situated at one of the most beautiful places in the world. A warm welcome on arrival and very helpful staff. We will come back next year and will book as soon as possible. Thank you for making our stay a wonderful time.

This was our first time in Rome and we could not have chosen a better hotel for the money. We were right next to the amazing Pantheon and could easily walk everywhere in central Rome without needing to take public transport. The piazza outside was very lively and a great place for people-watching; the excellent soundproofing meant this did not spoil our sleep. Staff were very helpful, friendly. Breakfast was the usual continental mix of cereals, meat, cheese and fresh fruit. Overall, this is a well-presented, convenient hotel and we enjoyed our time there greatly.

Very nice hotel in an excellent location. Quietly seated next to the Pantheon with no traffic and within short walking distance of all major sites in the old city. Not the best kitchen, but a nice rooftop terrace and an OK bar for evening drinks.

This was our first time staying at Hotel del Senato and we absolutely loved it!! We were celebrating our wedding anniversary and were pleasantly greeted with a chilled bottle of champagne and a lovely card in our room, upon our arrival. We have been vacationing in the Eternal City for the past 3 summers and previously stayed all those times in a hotel nearby. We decided to change and we are so glad we did! From now on, we will recommend Hotel del Senato to family and friends... and our future stays in Rome will be there. Our stay was made more memorable by Luca's quick sense of humor, Anne's thoughtfulness, and Mauro's helpfulness,as well as the other employees' courteous hospitality. Also, there are wonderful people serving breakfast who make the best cappucino in the area!!! If possible, request a room with a view... we were on the 4th floor facing the Pantheon. Perfetto!!!! We absolutely LOVE this hotel and encourage you to plan your next stay in bella Roma with them.

We loved our stay at the Del Senato. The room was quite large, with a balcony overlooking the Pantheon and the Piazza della Rotunda! We traveled with our family, 10 in total, with 5 children in total, ages 9 thru 15, and a wonderful time was had by all. The breakfast, which was included, was spectacular. We stayed in Rome 3 nights, 4 days, and will come back as soon as we are able. What a city! Molto bene!!!

Perfect location, excellent hotel, superior service. We have already recomended this hotel to close friends. This is so much better than the via Veneto hotels.

Absolutely beautiful hotel in the heart of historic centre of Rome. Best location possible for walking around and seeing the historic sites. Staff was fantastic. They took excellent care of us. Also made very good recommendations for restaurants and how to get around. Our room had a view of the piazza in front of The Pantheon. It was like we had a front row seat to a theatre at times. A little bit noisy, but when the shutters and windows were closed it almost completely drowned out the noise. We would stay here again if we ever go back to Rome.

Delightful hotel with family atmosphere. Excellent location for tourists. Ask for room with view on Pantheon - it's amazing. Rooms are not extremely spacious, but clean and quiet. Breakfast is at good standard. Highly recommended hotel if you want to be in a heart of Rome.

Very friendly and helpful staff. Wonderful location. The rooms overlooking the Pantheon are smaller than others but still large enough - and we were offered a choice on arrival.

Sure me and my wife will be come back at this beautiful hotel. Very nice situation in center of Rome, near of all.

Excellent hotel. Great location, wonderful staff. We had an absolutely marvellous time. Great value for money too! Do not hesitate to book this hotel if you are looking for accomodation in Rome.

Excellent location, in walking distance to many historical sites and near restaurants and cafes. Easy just to step outside and do some touring with no effort. Very few steps inside and out makes it easier for older or less mobile guests. Very good breakfast. Helpful and honest staff. Would ddefinitely stay again--if the prices make it affordable.

First class place to stay when in Rome, near everything. Staff courteous, knowledgeable, and helpful. Would highly recommend.

Excellent hotel in the heart of Rome, Great for walking to all the sights. The roof top terrace bar is fabulous with excellent views over Rome. The breakfast was a well stocked buffet. The price is more than you would expect to pay in other cities but about average for central Rome.

Rome first timers stop your research and just book this hotel NOW. Its perfect. As you read reviews dont get hung up on breakfast, room size etc. You want service, location and a nice view. This hotel has it all. They welcome you with open arms, and are able to help with anything you need. The location is central to all, and puts you in the essence of Rome. The view of the Rotunda and Pantheon from your window is breathtaking. Be careful because alot of hotels you have researched are down alleys and overlook alleys. This hotel is in the middle of one of the prettiest piazza's in Rome. This one is a no brainer...just book it. You can thank me when you get back.

This is my 3rd visit to Rome. The Del Senato is in a wonderful location and the rooftop terrace was delightful. Michele was great. We had a very comfortable room, though a bit small, with a lovely view. The reception clerks were somewhat formal and I thought could have been warmer and more informative. Our last morning we left for the airport very early and were not offered breakfast, although a student group who was also leaving very early had breakfast prepared for them. It would have been nice if they had offered the same to us since they knew we were also leaving early because we had booked a driver for the airport through reception. We had requested a wakeup call that morning and did not receive one. That could have been a disaster if we had not woken on our own. Internet was not always working.Very nice hotel, could be an excellent hotel, but I would have to say uneven service for the price.

Our stay at hotel del senato could not have been better. the hotel itself is clean and elegant, just as all the reviews say. the staff was the best of any hotel at which i have ever stayed...friendly, courteous, charming and helpful. my first contact, ms. anna johanssen,(front desk mgr.)went out of her way to accommodate a special request before our arrival, which made our visit to rome (my wife's first) so special. we will surely return to this wonderful hotel for an extended stay next time. this is the place you want to stay!

This was our first stay at Auberge Del Sonato. The staff was great and the location could not be beat. Great view of the Pantheon and centrally located. We loved the rooftop terrace and would frequent it every evening prior to dinner. Would definitely stay at the DelSonato agian and will recommend it to others.

The location is the big attraction - you could only be in Rome with those fabulous views of the Pantheon! Loved to look down on the piazza late at night when all was quiet too. We encountered very helpful staff for our 1 night stay and were given an upgrade to a superior room with a great view, plenty of space - including a lovely big bathroom. Decor is perhaps a little dated but very well maintained and certainly doesn't feel like a chain hotel. Drinks at sunset on the roof overlooking Rome are especially good. Breakfast is served in a ground floor dining room. Shame this isn't available on the roof too. The Senato is rather pricey, but we were very happy with our choice and would love to return.

This hotel is so well placed. As we were on our honeymoon they kindly upgraded us to a Junior Suite for free and we had an amazing view of the square (directly outside the Patheon). They also provided a bottle of Prosecco and fresh fruit. The hotel terrace bar is a great place to start the evening, and Michele (bar man) was really helpful with tips on places to visit in Rome. I really can't fault this hotel and we will definately stay here again when we are in Rome and i have already started recommending it to my friends and family.

First visit to Rome and chose Albergo Del Senato due to its location - excellent choice for us. Loved being in the heart of Rome. Hotel does exactly what it says it will. Beautiful roof top bar. Breakfast items were plentiful and replenished regularly. Would have liked a variety in the type of eggs available each morning, 7 days of scrambled eggs, got a bit tiresome. But hand on heart, this was the only "gripe". Next time we go to Rome, I would hope to stay at the Senato again (if we can afford it). Thank you.

We stayed 5 days. The location is unique, many sites are in walking distance. That is why the price is so high. The hotel itself is not that great: Rooms are very small, you hear neighbors taking a shower, we had to sleep with open windows (noisy) because the room was to warm and they would not turn on the air conditioning in April, breakfast had no variety during the 5 days. staff are all fine and very friendly. Next time I may take a hotel which is not that centrally localed and save half the cost. Using public transport is easy and cheap.

A fantastic place to stay in central Rome ideal for a special trip - in the middle of all the sights, great restaurants and the best coffee in town (Sant'eustache). The rooms and staff were faultless. Didn't use the dining room or bar as there are too many truely exceptional ones outside. The roof terrace looks good though (opens in June 2008). Pantheon-facing rooms are noisy but the view was worth it.

Stayed for 4 nights and there is no doubt the Hotel made it a perfect holiday. Our double room was breathtaking! Staff were so friendly and helpful in every department. Service was 100% spot on, and would rate this at least a five star hotel. Would recommend to anyway visiting Rome. Fantastic.

I chose Del Senato because I wanted a hotel that was centrally located to all of the activities of Rome. It was perfect for this! This was the best hotel we stayed at during our Italy trip. All hotel staff were helpful and courteous. In particular, Mauro, who worked the desk in the evening, did an outstanding job making dinner recommendations for us each evening. We really enjoyed our stay here, would pick this hotel again in the future and would recommend it to others.

Outstanding hotel. Very expensive, but location is breathtaking. You are directly beside the Pantheon. We sent our parents there for their wedding anniversary. Only minor point - remember it is called Albergo del Senato, not Hotel del Senato. Just a language thing, helps with taxis etc on arrival.

Staying at the Del Senato heightened our experience of Rome immeasurably. To throw open our windows and lean out into the Piazza, hear the fountain and people and to see the massive beauty of the Pantheon transformed my entire family. Within five minutes of our arrival our eleven-year-old daughter was sketching the Pantheon from her window. Beyond the location, the hotel staff was exceptional. There was a genuine warmth from the front desk to the wonderful bartender.....everyone seemed to care about our experience in Rome. We will be back....I hope soon!!

The staff at the desk were very friendly and helpful. The location couldn't be better. The only downside was that the room was very hot and we had to open the window, which was noisy. I didn't complain about this though, so maybe the hotel would have been able to help.

This was our third visit to Rome and without hesitation the location is superb. The staff at the hotel was excellent and you can get great cocktails in the bar. The selection of restaurants adjacent to the hotel was fantastic.

The room was rather small and needed to be refreshed. The elevator is very slow and rather small. Breakfast is average. Location is the best to be found in Rome. Warm and friendly welcome.

Had a wonderful time. Staff, hotel were excellent. Would love to go back. Stayed three nights at the hotel

We stayed 4 nights at the Del Senato and could not have been more pleased. From Luca's welcome on arrival to his Arrivederci when we left it was a terrific experience. Luca also managed to find us two amazing guides, Stefano and Favio, twin brothers, who gave us two truly magnificent tours. The Vatican and Ancient Rome. Their knowledge and charming personalities gave us insights we never would have had otherwise, and it was all due to Luca's efforts on our part. The room was maybe a bit small but probably standard for Rome. It was extremely comfortable, with the most comfortable bed of all the hotels we stayed at. Neat as a pin too, and a great bathroom with hairdryer and a dual US/european socket for US electrical items. The breakfast room was beautiful and the breakfast was just what we wanted. A nice selection and lots of it. The location is perfect. The Pantheon is literally right next door and could be seen plainly from our window, but the room was still very quiet at night. The Trevi Fountain, the Spanish steps and the National monument are all within easy walking distance, as were the coliseum and many other sights. The bar was very cozy and Michele the bartender was a fountain of knowledge of the area. A truly superb hotel made even better by the people who run it.

Not seasoned travellers (first time holiday without kids for 20 years!). Special anniversary - perfect hotel - perfect destination. Luca (on reception desk) was excellent! Great local knowledge and advice and fantastic restaurant recommendation. Easily within walking distance of all top sites, and rooftop bar was wonderful for panoramic/intimate view of Rome.

Great location central to all interesting places and easy to walk to even with kids, lots of nearby good restraunts etc.., hotel has of high standards of fittings etc and I would would go back next time, staff spoke good english, their limo minibus back to airport was 75 euro for family of 5

Lovely hotel in the right location. We walked all over Rome from our hotel. The staff was always so welcoming when we came downstairs. This was a great place to stay.

My wife and I enjoyed our visit to Rome. This hotel made our stay very special. Our hotel room overlooked the Pantheon and Piazza. It was conveniently looked to the Trevi Fountain, Spanish Steps, and Piazza Naovona. The property was clean and well staffed.

The service at the front desk was great. The maid service was great. I loved this place.

We stayed because of reviews on Trip Advisor and they were spot on correct. The hotel and staff were great and extremely helpful. They directed us very accurately to all of the historical spots we wanted to see. The breakfast very good. Our only complaint was the air conditioning which by US standards was sub par but was probably good to excellent by European standards. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay again and recommend to friends. One of the complaints that I had read was the lack of a restaurant in the hotel, hay this is no problem at all since there are probably 100 good restaurants within a couple of blocks of the hotel.

Location is the main reason I stayed here. But the hotel itself is great also. Room was adequately sized but great view and perfectly good sleep. Staff were great. Rooftop terrace we loved. Pity the breakfast was a bit sparse. That's the only thing. For the money I would've expected better here. No fresh fruit salad for eg.

Great hotel. We booked a Deluxe room, and received a room on the top floor with French windows overlooking the Pantheon (see picture). Location is great, and the rooftop bar has a great view as well. Would definitely stay here again!

We spent five nights at the Hotel Del Senato end of July, beginning of August. The staff was fantastic; location amazing; and Del Senato is the perfect place to return to after roaming the streets of Rome.

Hotel is in the middle of it all! Bar on the rooftop is a great way to see the top of the city. On a clear day you can even see the Vatican. Piazza in front is always active, but you couldn't hear a sound from our room which faced onto the street. A great place to stay.

If you want to stay in the heart of Rome this is a great hotel. Sensational view to the "piazza della Rotunda" and the "Pantheon". Better location in Rome? Impossible. Just a few minutes walking to "piazza Navona", "fontana di Trevi" or "piazza di Spagna. In the surroundings, excellent restaurants: Quinzi & Gabrielli, Rosetta, il Convivio. And, probably, the best ice cream in town, gelateria "Della Palma", just in "via della Maddalena", # 20-23. Excellent and friendly hotel staff. Not a large bedroom and bathroom. High price -- someone might say "too high" -- but if you want to stay in the heart of Rome, you have to pay the price. There's no other way that I know. First time in Rome? The most famous pizza in town is Baffeto's (open only at night). Or you could try "la Sagrestia", via del Seminario, 89, only a few steps from the hotel entrance. A lasagna , don't lose the restaurant "da Mario", in "via della Vite",# 55-56, (a little salty, but the best I have ever eaten), close to "piazza di Spagna". "Da Mario" is not an expensive restaurant. Weimar Figueiredo

The perfect place for a stay in Rome - beautiful view of he Pantheon and in the heart of the city.

This was one of the most enjoyable stays in a hotel that we have ever had. The staff is so helpful and truly upbeat. The room was spacious, immnaculately clean and the hotel's location in the heart of old Rome....with the Pantheon out the front door...was perfect for walking quickly to other destinations whether it was St Peter's, the Forum or the Spanish Steps. There are also many good restaurants and interesting shops in the immediate area. We plan to go to this hotel again and again when in Rome.

We stayed here one week in March 2007 - our first trip to Rome. The location could not be better. I especially enjoyed waking up early and watching activities in Piazza della Rotonda, with a favorite dog who made his morning rounds - including a visit to the Pantheon. The staff was friendly, accommodating, good sense of humor. Try the bar - there's a fantastic bartender who introduced us to some Roman specialty cocktails and freshly-made hors d'oeuvres with each round. Housekeeping staff actually bowed when we greeted them in the hallways. Super clean, decent size room by European standards, thoughtful turndown service. The rooms are well soundproofed - simply closing the windows keeps out the noises of the square if you so desire. We ate in the area often, trying many of the local restaurants; not one bad meal, bad service, or bad attitude in the bunch. We cannot say enough good things about this property, and we travel quite frequently. Absolutely will return, as soon as possible!

We picked this hotel on the basis of the reviews we had read, and we were not disappointed. The location of the hotel is outstanding; not only from the stunning position overlooking the Pantheon, but the proximity to all the sights. We easily walked to the Vatican and the colosseum. On our arrival at midday our room was ready (room 204 - the only room with a balcony overlooking the Pantheon, fantastic). Everyone at the hotel could not be more friendly and helpful. This was our first visit to Rome and we would definately return to the Del Senato - 10 out of 10!!!!

Norwegian couple, approx 40 yrs; Wonderful romantic hotel, location and surroundings. Ok, off season, but the positive and helpful hotel receptionist knew who we were when we arrived. A large room with a high ceiling, a fine wiew over the Pantheon, many tourist attractions within walking distance. We will return :-)

Stayed here for a long weekend. Fantastic location, walking distance from all popular attractions. Amazing room overlooking Pantheon - hard to drag myself away at the end of the holiday! Helpful and courteous staff who provided complimentary champagne in my room on my birthday. Was able to check in by 11am as we arrived early, and stored our luggage all day after check out, as we had a late flight. Even ordered us a local taxi to the airport hours after check out when we were no longer their responsibility! Can't fault the whole experience, and would definately recommend this hotel to all travellers. Thanks for a great time!

This is a quality hotel in a great location.

Nice hotel, very warm people and great service. Best place to stay in Rome, next to the Pantheon so everything is at walking distance.

An unbeatable location if you like to be in the thick of things. If this hotel was any closer to the Pantheon, it would be INSIDE the Pantheon. Fantastic hotel, slightly expensive, but worth every penny.

Location, location, location - and the views were spectacular. I love Rome, and this piazza is my favorite place to stay. Everyone at the Del Senato was more than competent, completely pleasant. Our stay in Rome was magical, as usual. A little pricey, perhaps, but well worth it for us.

Wonderful hotel..excellent location..excellent staff..we had a wonderful time at the Hotel Del Senato..breakfast was very good..i would highly recommended this hotel!!!

The location is perfect. Watching the sunset over Rome from the rooftop terrace was lovely. The room, although small, looked out over the square. The staff we so helpful and welcoming. Would definitely stay again and recommend it.

This was our 2nd visit to the del Senato and I highly recommend this hotel. The staff is superb and friendly, the surroundindings are beautiful, the rooftop deck is a joy, and the view of the Pantheon from our room is hard to believe.

This hotel was marvelous!! The location is excellent, it is central to everything you would want to see in Rome. The staff is very friendly and helpful. When we arrived our room was facing the piazza, so we asked for a more quiet room and they obliged without hesitance. I can't wait to go back to Rome and stay at the Del Senato.

Brilliant!Best short break ever,best hotel overall [we were given a free upgrade],best location in Rome,and free champagne provided on my wife's birthday.Go for it!

I would stay here again and would recommend anyone else to stay here as well. Great location and staff. The hotel is exactly as you would hope it would be. Very clean, not the cheapest place to stay but you get what you pay for.

Excellent, but noisy, location. Room was too warm (in March) and turning off the heat did not help. Unable to keep the window open overnight because the area was too noisy. Staff was very helpful and attentive.

Fabulous hotel, location could not be better. The only noise was that from the piazza below but that just added to the atmosphere of being in central Rome. The standard rooms were spacious enough, especially for a central hotel. Staff could not have been more helpful - we were allocated a front of house room as requested, they sent a courtesy bottle of wine to the room for my birthday, they organised transport from and to the airport. We will most definitely stay there again. My only comment to Venere would be that as we booked and paid on departure the cost was slightly higher due to the exchange rate - however it could have gone the other way! Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Having found this Hotel through this website I would just like to say SUPERB! My wife & I stayed here for her 40th birthday and were warmly welcomed by a friendly gentleman speaking fluent English, as we entered the reception he immediately knew who we were, a great start. As we arrived early (11:30am) our bags were taken into storage and he explained we could have our room within an hour, so we took this opportunity to explore the square and the amazing Pantheon and obviously sample a superb Cappucino. The view from our room (406)was fantastic, we could almost touch the Pantheon and spent many hours people watching in the square. The room was not the largest, but ample for our stay and very clean. Great shower, slippers provided and a surprise frr bottle of Champagne was presented to my wife on her actual birthday, with a hand written personal card - great touch. Breakfast was plentiful with a good choice, small gripes being the juice was not 'real' and the scrambled eggs cold, otherwise a fantastic stay. We would recommend the Hotel every time and would say it would be hard to find better.The position of the Hotel meant we could walk everywhere in Rome within 20 mins - magic. Finally, after another recommendation from this sight, we found a restaurant called L'e Vie run by French missioneries, great food, service and prices. Cross the square from the Hotel, left at news stand, right then immediately left again, keep to the right side of these buildings and you will find the entrance, but blink and you may it. Hope this helps someone have as great a time as we did.

I stayed at the Del Senato for 3 nights in Feb with my partner and two friends,and i can say it was the best short break we have had.This was our first trip to Italy [ROME]and we found the staff very helpfull and the location simply excellent.

A fantastic hotel with all major sites within easy walking distance, this hotel is everything it says it is!!!!!

Absolutely fantastic - even better than we expected - the location was incredible and the hotel was just perfect - don't stay anywhere else in Rome other than than the Albergo Del Senato, recommended 100%.

Rome is a fantastic city, that was made even more enjoyable at the Del Senato. We had a view overlooking the Pantheon which was spectacular. The room was air conditioned which at the time of the year (mid January) was very much needed! Overall, staff were wonderful, room was wonderful, city was wonderful.. altogether it was wonderful!

Although my boyfriend has been to Rome several times this was my first trip to Rome. Our stay at the Del Senato was wonderful. The location was excellent for walking to many of the ruins, museums, and restaurants and our view could not be better. Every day we saw the Pantheon and walked through the Piazza della Rotunda. The staff was very helpful and extremely professional. We will definitely stay at the Del Senato on our next trip to Rome.

This has to be by far the best located hotel in Rome. Everything about the place is fantastic we would recommend it to anyone for a break in Rome. The staff were fantastic and helpful. Go here and live like a King for a few nights.

Emplacement idéal, face au Panthéon. Chambre très spacieuse. Mias hélas aucune vue. Ce qui est concevable Petit-déjeuner, décevant et pas à la hauteur. Salle exigüe, buffet à peine moyen. Au total excellent hotel et j'y reviendrai tout de même très volontiers

We just retruned from a November, 2005 visit. The Del Senato was a splurge for us - but absolutly perfect. Of course the view is spectacular, and the location is excellent. But what really makes the Del Senato is the incrediably helpful staff, all the "little extra's" they provide in the room, the spectacular shower (!), and the great breakfast. It feels like a luxury hotel, without being one of those big chains - you still have the beauty of what makes Rome, Rome. Probably one of my best experiences in Europe, and I'm a fairly seasoned traveler. A side note: we booked our trip from the airport with their taxi service, and even though our plane arrived two hours late, he was waiting patiently for us. Very nice after a transatlantic flight.

Location fine and although rooms small they are adequate. Professionalism of staff mainly front desk is the least competent on any we have every experienced during our last twenty visits to room in the past eight years. Repeated mistakes such as giving our key to another guest, NOT having rides ready for departure to airport despite three reminders to desk clerk Luca to write down information n (both in Italian and engilsh) just scratch the surface of why this place should be avoided. Only bright spot on staff is excellent staff on breakfast service. They could give the front desk personal a lesson on professionalism and courtesy.

Just got back today and would like to thank everyone for a great recommendation - from our window we could virtually touch the Pantheon! Hotel had great staff and was clean and nicely furnished throughout. The view from the roof terrance / bar(open April to October)was superb. The atmosphere in the square was great - we are definately going back - Dean & Christina, Manchester, England

The Del Senato is a charming hotel, nice breakfast room, incredible location - you look out on the Pantheon, and the piazza has something going on a lot of the time.

We spent our last night in Rome at your hotel and it was the perfect end to our two week vacation in Italy. The accomodations were perfect and the staff was most helpful.

I think that tihs hotel is very good, and will stay this hotel when I visit Rome next time. However, one of the receptionists did not answer our question concerning restaurants. He did not speak English for us. But I found that he spoke freely English with Americans. I felt a slight racial prejudice for Asians. Taxi service to the airport was reasonable and confortable.

We totally enjoyed our stay at the del Senato. The front desk staff, to a person, was always friendly and helpful. The breakfast was enjoyable and substantial with a large selection, the breakfast room staff seemed abit overwhelmed at times however. Our group included several children and it was enjoyable to see the staff interact with them and encourage them to ask for the room keys in Italian. The location is perfect for visiting Rome, we walked to everything. Michael on the roof terrace was a hit with all! We will certainly return.

Excellent location. Room was pretty quite considering it overlooked the 'Rotonda' square and Pantheon, the windows cut the noise from outside right down. Breakfast was very good, with a large choice of pasteries and fruit, as well as all the usual continental breakfast type stuff. Only small gripes were that the air-conditioning didn't have much temperature adjustment on it, but it could still be set to reasonably comfortable temperature, and the TV only had 1 English channel, but who goes to Rome to watch the telly! Rooftop bar was nice, and reasonably priced when compared to most of the cafes on the local streets. Safety deposit box in the room was free to use. Overall I'd recomend it!!

This hotel was one of my favorites while we were in Italy. This hotel is not only very nice, but has THE BEST location in Rome in our opinion. First of all, it is centrally located. We walked to just about everything we wanted to see (or when our feet hurt, the cab ride is cheap). Tons of places to eat nearby, both expensive and inexpensive. The surrounding area is nice, but not so nice you feel like you need to be wearing Armani to leave the hotel (but you could if that's your thing). Also, the hotal is right on the Piazza Della Rotunda, which is a small piazza in front of the pantheon. This piazza is perfect, because there is always activity, but it is not a really noisy piazza--there is no automobile traffic (except the occasional cab), so no car noise and no smelly exhaust. Just the sound of people at the cafes and the fountain in the middle of the piazza. Always good people watching, even at night there's lots of activity in the piazza. If you didn't want to hear the piazza sounds, closing your window did the trick completely--the windows completely blocked any noise. Our room had air conditioning too, not always found in Italy. The room in general was nice (if maybe a little small by US standards--but average in Italy). Very nice dark hardwood floors, modern clean bathroom, with a full size tub and shower, hairdryer. Our room had very tall ceilings and very tall windows (perhaps 6 feet tall??). The service in Del Senato is great, all very friendly, helpful, speak enlish if you need it. Breakfast was phenomenal for Italy. Choice of any number of pastries, cakes, scrambled eggs, meats (ham, prosciutto, salami), cereal, rolls, fruit. Tea, coffee (all varieties), juice, milk to drink. Very good. Another plus was the computer/internet in the lobby. This hotel was totally worth every penny we spent, and I wouldn't hesitate to come again (and stay longer).

We have stayed at the del Senato twice now in August and love it and love the location. the staff is friendly and helpful. we would stay there every time we come to Rome. we particularly like the rates in August.

Great hotel, great location, especially if you get a room facing the Pantheon. Love the roof bar where you can have a cocktail gazing at the Roman skyline. Have stayed here 5 or 6 six times now and will continue to do so. Good value for quality and location.

Lovely hotel and brilliant location, right in the heart of things. Everything within easy reach. Hotel went well beyond our expectations.

This Hotel overlooking the Pantheon at night was terrific, the roof terrace was so relaxing while watching the sun set over St Peter's dome. The location made walking to all of the major sites possible and being in the historic area with limited vehicles made the location very quiet. We had a group of 4 couples and everyone loved this Hotel and would highly recommend it to their friends.

The hotel was very nice. It was my first time to this hotel--I was bringing a friend and her daughter so I need a triple. The location was great and close to everything. Due to rain we never got to see the roof top bar. When I return in May with my husband we will stay here as I liked the location better then the Spanish steps were we always stay.

This was undoubtedly our best choice of hotel during a recent trip to Europe; the hotel was charming, and the location was great! It was nice to know that even after long days out and about, we were never too far from Del Senato to get back and enjoy a drink on the rooftop terrace....before heading off again to dine in that wonderful area. Our experiences were only good, and I wouldn't think of staying anywhere else in Rome! Thank you all.

Amzing location on the same piazza as the Pantheon; friendly staff and a wonderful breakfast that is included with your stat. We stayed as a family in 2 rooms, and my kids loved this hotel. We would definitely come back to Rome and make this hotel our home base.

This was our first visit to Rome, so location was important. Del Senato was ideal. We really enjoyed our stay at this hotel, the staff where friendly, and the rooms where spotless. When we return to Rome I will stay here again.

This was the best of the three hotels we stayed at during our Italy trip. They were also the most inexpensive. During our stay I lost me cell phone and they made several phone calls ultimately resulting in my phone being found. Everyone at the hotel was friendly and helpful and the cold breakfast was outstanding. I will tell everyone I know that this is the place to stay when in Rome.

We Loved our stay at Del Senato. Because the hotel is next to a major landmark in Rome, the Pantheon, there were almost always taxis waiting nearby. To most places it was only a 5-6 Euro taxi ride. Our room was very nice with 11 ft ceilings and very rich damask fabric covering the walls as wallpaper. The wood floor in the room was very nice as well. The breakfast was wonderful especially the delicious cappuccino! We will definately stay here again!

We absolutely loved this hotel! The location was perfect, perfect, perfect. You walk out the front door right onto the piazza by the Pantheon. There's music, people sitting by the fountain, people eating at the great restaurants, etc.

First class location in a beautiful square just yards from the Pantheon. The roof terrace is lovely. Within walking distance of all the main tourist attractions.

Great location and wonderful service. We will definitely stay here on our next trip.

Great location, great location, great view. Breakfast basic but friendly.

Everything was wonderful. It felt as though we could reach out the window and touch the Pantheon. The roof garden should not be missed. The staff was all wonderful. Great Place!!!!!
