River Palace Hotel in Rome

heel goede ligging, mooi hotel waaruit je Rome kan ontdekken al dan niet met hulp van vriendelijke hotelmedewerkers. Concept van happy hour zorgt ervoor dat je met andere gasten ervaringen en tips kan uitwisselen. Kleine kamers, een upgrade is aan te bevelen.

This is a great place to stay for a hotel in a more 'non-touristy' location yet only a minute's walk from Piazza del Popolo and a Metro stop. This area has a lot of students and some cheap but decent food. The hotel service was great and the room itself was a very good size with a nice modern bathroom. The only thing we did not like about this hotel […] was that you needed two different elevator banks to reach the hotel rooms. While this is great for added security, it was slightly inconvenient. Overall this is a very nice place to stay that I would recommend to others. Lees meer

This is a great hotel in a lovely part of Rome. The location is perfect for sightseeing and the staff are extremely friendly and helpful. The rooms are very small but spotlessly clean. I would definitely stay in this hotel again.

We really enjoyed our stay here. The staff was excellent in every way and the service was superb. My husband and I loved the location. The metro station was literally 2 blocks away and the hotel was pretty close to everything. The hotel itself was very nice and as many before me have already expressed, the breakfast was really good and definitely convenient. […] The only thing that we were not crazy about was the size of the room. We had one of the larger ones and it was not that spacious. Their really isn't any walking room and the bathroom is small as well. Very pretty and elegant hotel, but small. If space is a big factor for you, we would recommend getting the suite. Other than that everything else was excellent. Great location, easy to get to and from your destination for the day. Also we are not drinkers, but the hotel offers a happy hour where all alcoholic beverages are 50% off and they serve little delicious complimentary appetizers during the happy hour which were great! Recommended, we would stay again, but in a bigger room. Lees meer

All staff were very helpful and pleasant, giving useful information about the city, transportation and restaurants. The breakfast buffett was outstanding - offering a delicious array of hot and cold foods. Especially delightful were cheese and meat assortments, fresh fruits & fruit juices, hot milk for hot coffee (a European class act) and lovely pasteries. We […] had two different sleeping rooms due to our travel plans: enjoying both the classic & deluxe (larger) because they were beautifully furnished & clean. A special touch was the nightly pampering of closing the drapes, turning down the bed sheets & leaving a sweet treat. We were also welcomed with a bottle of wine. Finally, the happy hour half-priced drinks with snacks were a relaxing closure to day-long sightseeing. We highly recommend this lovely & unique Rome hotel. Lees meer

Nice hotel in very good location, and with excellent breakfast. We recommend Deluxe room, since even that was moderately small.

Recently stayed at the River Palace Hotel for 4 nights after doing lots of research on various websites. I was not dissappointed as the hotel was fabulous. Great location, just 5 minutes walk from the main shopping area and within a 20 - 30 minute walk to the Colisseo, Vatican and about 10 - 15 minutes maximum to to the Spanish Steps, Trevi Fountain […] & Pantheon. We were able to walk everywhere, felt very safe and did not get lost. Could not fault the room. We booked a suite, which was great with magnificant views on the terrace, which was a brucie bonus. Did not see any of the other rooms so could not comment on room size. Happy hour in the bar from 6 pm to 10 pm (half price drinks) was great after a meal out and a hard day strolling round the wonderful sights as well as the shops. Seemed to be well used by residents. Glass of wine in happy hours was 3 euros so was cheaper than in Rome. Would go back to the River Palace. Breakfast was also excellent and set us up for the day. Lots of choice and great times to eat. Booked a transfer via the hotel, which was a little bit more than a city taxi or the train into central rome but after a 2 flights and a long day it was well worth it - we were even given a guided tour by the driver (in the dark) and we were so impressed with the ease of the transfer and comfort, we booked a return journey. I hope this review helps you as there is lots of choice in Rome. Lees meer

We loved this hotel, it was a Grande Palace, the breakfast was amazing not to be missed. The bathroom was first class. Location was great we walked to Trevi, colesum,vatacian. Only nine euros toto go to main railway by taxi and two nearby restaurants were excellent. We were more than happy with the service, staff andquality of this hotel

I researched locations and hotels within Rome for hours. Because I'm a solo female traveler, area and safety are of extra concern. River Palace is ranked #49 of Rome's hotels by Trip Advisor and one of the most reasonably priced that I found. Pros: - Location - Safety - Cleanliness - Breakfast (available for 4 1/2 hours) - Quaint rooms - English speaking […] news channels - Free WiFi - In-room safe - Restaurants near by - Helpful and extremely nice staff Cons: - Thin doors - Smaller rooms - Small shower If concerned about the location not being "central" like I was, it was actually more perfect than I could have wished for. It was a short walk to the metro and not even 100 yards from the Piazza del Popolo. River Palace Hotel is the beginning of the Rome that you want to be in. The hotel is where fun Rome begins, but it's not in the midst of overwhelming chaos. Near the main attractions (Trevi Fountain, Spanish Steps, Colosseum, Pantheon...) is so overwhelmingly loud and chaotic that being in it 24/7 would be too much. The rooms are on the smaller side like what you would expect a European hotel to be but they're not so small that you're crawling over the bed to walk out the door; they're acceptable. As for the thin door, that was slightly annoying. You can hear people talking in the hall and other doors closing (oftentimes slamming). However everything else considered, I'll take those two minor drawbacks. River Palace was quite generous and gave an excellent bottle of chianti (a DCOG--the second highest grade), however there was no corkscrew anywhere to be found. My advice? Be creative. I used the "push method". Take one of the hangers and push the cork in. Not the ideal way to open a bottle of wine but, hey, sometimes you have to be creative. That random information aside, you're going to be close to everything a person should be close to while in a safe area. If possible, I'd give you a money back guarantee that you'll be happy with this hotel. Lees meer

What a lovely hotel. Plenty of good reviews already and now we know why. Service was tremendous before and during the trip, It was my wife's birthday and they treated her specially for it. Hotel is very clean, comfortable and cosy. Previous reviewers complain of small rooms but we loved ours, just the right size and no noise at all. Breakfast was wonderful […] also. Highly recommended and many thanks . Lees meer

Superb location. Clean, pleasant, extremely accommodating. An amazing breakfast spread - salmon AND Brie? Even a pair of bottles of prosecco, not that I would hsve sparkling wine in the morning...if there were one item I would change, it would be the temperature of the hot water..a couple of degrees hotter. There was always plenty of it, however. Going […] back at the end of the month. Highly recommended. Lees meer

This is a wonderful hotel, great breakfast choice and the staff were very helpful and polite. Walking distance to all sights and 100m from Metro. Happy hour 6-10pm with complimentary sandwiches and nibbles. Very clean and warm hotel. Room small but you can upgrade. We didn't bother as we were out all day then out again in the evening. I will go back […] to this hotel and recommend to any one who wants to visit a beautiful city. Lees meer

Good location. Realy nice and friendly staff. Good quality at the hotel. Breakfast was good. We were very pleased with our room but if you travel with children you should take a large room. We definitely going to stay at this hotel if we return to Roma.

lOVE THIS HOTEL!!!! from the second we arrived, all was amazing, room was stunning, only one with private balcony, a must for the views of Rome. If you stay in one hotel in Rome or Italy, make it this one. Breakfast was lovely and loads of different elements. Happy hour is STUNNING! Once you get here you will know why! So in summary, WOW WOW WOW, Thank […] you to all the staff Lees meer

Really nice place to stay . Clean. Close to the city centre . Definitely would come back

Great Hotel! We stayed at the River Palace for a week in December. The staff was friendly, the room was nice and comfortable. The location was great, walking distance to many locations, and if walking was too far, the hotel is a block from the metro station. We enjoyed the happy hour and overall had a wonderful stay.

Nice hotel clean and very nice helpful staff. Everyone went out of thier way to be of any assistance. Rooms were nice and clean pays to upgrade from the smallest room to the next size up much more comfortable. Walking distance to everything. Breakfast was amazing! Each morning they offered a cappucino or espresso and there was even champagne. Juices, […] Smoked salmon, meats, cheeses, fresh breads and pastries and american style eggs, bacon etc. Huge breakfast included in the room rate. Worth the price of this hotel. Amazing. Thank you RIver Palace Staff !!! Lees meer

Just one minute away from Piazza del Popolo, at Flaminio metro station, River Palace offered very generous breakfast buffet. Employees of the hotel were always eager to help. I would definitely recommend this hotel

River Palace is not a horrible hotel, however I not impressed by this suppossed 4 star. The room was beyond European hotel small. The shower and bathroom were a joke. I'm 5'6'' and 125 lbs. and had a heck of a time in the shower. The nice thing was it was two blocks from the Flaminia Metro stop, just outside the chaois of the main streets of Rome. Everything […] is in easy walking distance if you don't need to take the Metro. I love to walk and it was only a 30 min walk to the Coloseeum from the hotel. They set you up with a nice map and even give the walking distance to everything. The behind the scenes empolyees were very friendly and did a great job. It was the guys at the desk who were rude and not very friendly, really pushed that fake trying to hard friendly. They had a nice breakfast buffet but the set up was a little confusing to try to find things, like salt and pepper. Otherwise it was ok. There was a great resturant just down 2 blocks that had awesome food for a great price, would totally recommend, next to the burger king. I would say not horrible but not great. Lees meer

A beautifully decorated hotel in keeping with the 'Palace' name. Excellent breakfast and friendly helpful staff make this hotel one to remember. The two lift (elevator) arrangement is a bit inconvenient. Used their private car service to airport, much more comfortable and less hassle than a taxi, for much the same cost - recommended. The happy hour […] is great, half price drinks and free nibbles. Definitely would recommend this hotel. Lees meer

Rome was our last city after 2 weeks of travel throughout Italy. We stayed here for 3 nights and loved the hotel. It had the best breakfast and the cocktail hour with half price drinks was a great way to start out each night. The rooms are small but the bathrooms were a decent size. We didn't spend much time in the room but it was clean and felt safe. […] The hotel is conveniently located and is close to the vatican and spanish steps and great shopping. Its slightly tucked away on the street but definitly would highly recomend, the staff was very great as well. We woulld return here for sure Lees meer

Nice, but a bit expensive. After readin feedbacks decided to upgrade the room since basic rooms are small. Good breakfast. Nice museum-like design. Enjoy!

My husband and I stayed at The River Palace during the last leg of our honeymoon. We had no major complaints with the hotel staff, but you should be aware that if you book a room, they will ask if you'd like an upgrade. I'm not sure what our reservation requested, but if non-smoking is a concern to you, you should make sure to ask if there is smoking […] allowed in the rooms on your floor. Even though we did not smoke, others on the floor were allowed and somehow, it crept into our room, either through the air vent or through cracks in the door. We were forced to open our "balcony" doors overnight to be able to breath sensibly. In the summertime, that might not be a desirable option. Just make sure you ask before you check-in about the smoking if it bothers you, because it did bother us. The service was good, but there aren't many dining options close by and they seem to close early, so if you're out past 8 pm, make sure you get dinner while out or get to the Burger King at the end of the Via Flaminia near the Metro stop before 11 pm! Breakfast was excellent and open (while we were there) from 6:00 am to 10:30 am. It was buffet style and had many options, both local and some western choices as well. The area the hotel is located in does not look particularly great, but it's a short, direct walk to the Piazza del Popolo which starts getting a more touristy feel. They provide a map at the hotel with some area sights and can answer basic questions. There are two computers available to use that are usually busy downstairs, but they offer free WiFi in the rooms and in the lobby, which is great, especially if you have a computer or Android phone or iPad/iPod that can take advantage of it to send data (i.e pictures of your trip).

This hotel is beautifully decorated, in a great location in Rome close to transit, Piazza del Popolo, and all sites. The rooms are small! We had a superior and a classic room. The classic room was fine for one person for one night and had everything except space (beautifully decorated including a fresco ceiling and marble bathroom). If spending any […] length of time, you should think about a superior room just for space. The breakfast was excellent and had capuccino service as well as sweets, fruit, meats, cheese, and eggs. Service was very nice. Public rooms were large, well decorated and the afternoon happy hour which lasts until 1000 PM includes some hors d'oeuvres and 2 for 1 drinks. Only criticism I have is the small elevator to higher floors (just fits 2 persons) and small rooms, otherwise, recommend highly and with enthusiasm. Try Pizza Perroni near Tiber and arch museum for excellent pizza in a lively environment. Lees meer

The River Palace Hotel is a pretty nice choice considering all the options you have. It's located within walking distance of a few popular sights, including the Vatican. The room was nice. It's a bit small but that's absolutely normal for a European hotel room, especially one in a city like Rome. The TV was pleasantly large, although you probably won't […] find any free English speaking channels. They do offer pay-per-view choices though. Bathroom was great. It was the first time I've ever seen a heated towel rack; kept the towels nice and toasty. The only thing I could possibly find wrong with this choice is that the one pillow on my bed was unbearably thin. Although that's easily fixed by asking for more. Parking was pretty convenient. The have a nearby underground garage that stores your car safe and secure for a reasonable fee. The hotel staff was super friendly and helpful and all spoke perfect English. The porter even hopped in my car and guided me to the nearby garage which was really convenient. Overall, very satisfied with this hotel and would recommend it to anyone that is trying to find a nice hotel relatively close to the main attractions. Lees meer

we stayed over New years eve and enjoyed the hotel. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Location is good. Only bummer was the not working cold water handle for the sink. They provided also a wine bottle as a welcome gift (very nice) but the wine was just ok and the bigger disappointment there was no opener in the room and room service couldnt find one. […] so we had to wait for the next day and ask the bar staff. we wanted to check out 2 hours later and where charged 50 additional Euros. But overall experience was good, breakfast was great. Lees meer

The River Palace is a beautiful hotel in Rome. The lobby is marble, as are the spacious bathrooms (huge soaking tub and separate shower). The rooms are small, but well equipped. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Breakfast is complimentary and includes eggs, bacon, sausage, salmon, fruit, pastries, several types of juices, and Prossecco (if you […] are so inclined). Every day there is a happy hour with half price drinks...a welcome respite from the sometimes high prices in Rome. WiFi is free. The hotel will send a car to pick you up if you arrange it. I definitely recommend that as we booked a car online and got ripped off....the car never showed, and we had prepaid. I would definitely stay here again, this is a wonderful hotel. Lees meer

Very nice hotel that lived up to the majority of reviews. The only problem we had during our stay was the elevator wasn't working and we were on the 7th floor. The hotel staff did compensate us with 20 euro per day of hotel/bar credit. Other than elevator problem (and I'm sure it's fixed by now), a great hotel with a very helpful, friendly staff!

The River Palace is a very nice hotel, located just north of Piazza del Popolo. Slightly out of the way, BUT very convenient to a well run subway, and close to buses as well. Staff was exceptional... and the breakfast was excellent! The hotel is clean, professionally run, and in an area that felt safe (we were in and out at all hours and never felt […] concerned). Very close to Villa Borghese and to Spanish Steps, and not far from Trevi Fountain. Little farther to Piazza Navona and the Pantheon area. If you're looking for a peaceful, professional venue, this is a solid choice. Lees meer

This is a gorgeous hotel and the staff was fantastic. The only problem is that the rooms are very very small. Breakfast was very good and the location was very convenient. Would definitely recommend and stay there again. But try to get the larger room if you can. The Classic standard room is the size of a postage stamp!

The hot breakfast buffet was great to start the day off. Lots of variety like an American-style breakfast and the food was very well-prepared. Our room was small (normal by European standards), but very clean and comfy. We originally had a triple, but I asked to have the extra bed removed, and they did. Hotel staff were very helpful and spoke English […] very well. Americans and those who speak English but no Italian would be comfortable here. The location was the best -- walking distance to Via del Corso and all the great shopping and just a few steps away from the metro. Lots of affordable places to eat nearby and in a very quiet, safe neighborhood. I would come here again!! Lees meer

This was a great experience for two first timers in Rome. we could and did walk to many sights. Room was a bit small but that is to be expected in Europe. Definitely would come again!

River Palace is near many beautiful and historical destination in Rome. The hotel is very clean, safe and has a very helpful and pleasant staff. The inside and out of the hotel is very pretty and the buffet breakfast was one of the best we had in any hotel. The rooms are small and getting our large suitcases open was a challenge, but since it was clean, […] had a nice tv and a comfortable bed, I would reccomend and stay again. Lees meer

The hotel and staff where all wonderful. My only complaint was the room is so very small.

Very accomodating. Spoke good English. Gave us a 3 prong outlet converter( we only brought a 2 prong one). Coceirge was always helpful and accurate. The standard size room they offer is the same size as your average north american walk in closet. The extra 20 euros per night is worth the additional 20 sqft. I loved the breakfast sausages with mustard […] on them (complimentary breakfast was good). Good location. Central to main shopping and walking distance to many of the sights Rome has to offer. Lees meer

Great location for getting to most of the major sights in Rome. Subway was 1/2 block away and very easy to get around, although most important sights are still a bit of a walk from subway stations. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Always someone on duty who spoke English. The best breakfasts we had in Italy.

The hotel staff was very attentive and at my request they had driver pick us up at the Rome Airport. This was great since this was our first time in Italy and we were a bit nervous. Our room was facing the street where this is construction work going on so we requested a room on the inside court. They quickly moved us with no hesitation. The hotel is […] close the the main attractions yet far enough away from any street noise at night. The breakfast was excellent and well stocked. The room was quite small but fine with the exception of the shower which was about 24X24, it was not possible to bend down in the shower. However is was clean an more than adequate for our stay. Don't miss the happy hour from 6-10:30 , half price drinks !!. Lees meer

River Palace is a nice hotel very close to piazza del popolo and within walking distance of most of Rome's sights. The staff were very nice and could speak good english. The classic room was a bit small but had all the comforts. Breakfast was buffet, with a wide choice and plentiful. Very good hotel.

The River Palace was with in walking distance to the major sights. The hotel has a happy hour which was a great place to meet fellow travelers and get information regarding eating places and learn about their experiences. Would recommend this hotel, its staff was very helpful.

Hotel was very clean and had very nice common areas. Main complain was that the room was extremely small. My six foot tall husband could lay on the bed and touch both sides of the room. I know that European hotels are small but this was like a closet and it was by far the most expensive of our 5 city trip. Location was in a safe area but about a ten […] minute walk to get to the Spanish steps. Next time I will book earlier (instead of 2 weeks ahead) and stay somewhere close to the Spanish steps. Bar and breakfast were good. Lees meer

The location of the hotel is good as it is only a short walk to the metro station and within walking distance to many of the well known sites. The hotel staff were all extremely pleasant and helpful. From the outside the hotel doesn't look anything special but the inside is elegant, stylish and majestic with a comfortable lounge next to the bar.

Perfectly situated on Via Flaminio near the Piazza del Populo, this hotel gave my wife and I easy access to all the important sights of Rome. The hotel was perfect for our four day stay. The staff were very courteous and extremely helpful and the room we had fulfilled all our needs although the shower was just a tad on the small side. There was also […] a happy (three) hour session each day from 6pm to 9pm where drinks were at half price. There were also free nibbles and sandwiches to accompany the drinks during these times. The breakfast each morning was excellent as was the service and this was inclusive in the price of the room. We had an excellent four day break in Rome to celebrate my wife's 60th birthday and this hotel added to the memory of our trip and the Roman experience. Lees meer

Et dejligt og roligt beliggende hotel lige i udkanten af det historiseke Rom, men indenfor gåafstand af de vigtigste seværdigheder. Venlig og serviceminded betjening. Hyggelig bar med "happy-hour" og free snacks. Nydelige, men små værelser (superior). God morgenmad - efter italiensk standard. Kommer gerne tilbage. På egne og gode venners vegn […] e Lees meer
