Fontana Hotel Rome  

The hotel was an excellent location - which made up for the small room. The staff were great.

The view would have been the best thing but unfortunately we could not see anything due to the building work. It would have been nice to know about this before we commited to booking. However once outside the hotel it was amazing. Very clean room & reception area. Good quality fixtures.

The reception staff (1 man particular) not very friendly, made us feel like we were a 'nuisance'. Not very skilled in pleasant communication! Also our electric was turned off every time we left the room., which is not a problem but on returning we had to come back downstairs to ask for it to be put back on. As we had to ask for our room key it would be common sense for the reception staff to switch it on for us then!!

Nice hotel in the heart of the city, near Trevi Fountain. Rooms are not big but comfortable. It should be understood that the fountain at night do not turn off and the noise (not intrusive) can interfere with sleep.

The central location and vicinity of the Trevi fountain are it's main initial attractions. The area around the hotel and fountain have a cheerful and pleasant feel, even out of season. The staff at the hotel are friendly, and prepaired to help, even a monolingual englishman. Special thanks to Nicola for his enrichment of my visit to Rome.

In one word... Wow. The view from our bedroom window over the Trevi fountain was amazing, just beautiful. Must surely be one of the best locations to stay in Rome? Breakfast is served in the roof terrace again overlooking the Trevi fountain where a good range of breakfast food was provided. In the evening an apertivo is also served in the terrace the views over Rome are breathtaking.

It's central location to anywhere in the City, the ambience, and, the staff.

Amazing location. The view is the best in the city. The hotal is central to everything.

Just a few issues (not significant). Elevator/lift is a little scary, Crowd noise at night (but you know that already). We will return again!

Good breakfast and location. Nice staff.

They put us in a really bad room in the first day. The mattress had a big hole, the shower was too small and the airconditioning did'nt work well. I request another bedroom in the secound day. They changed us for a really good bedroom, where everything was fine.

This is a quaint historical hotel with its biggest attraction being its location and the history of the establishment and (see below) its view. The staff were very helpful and friendly (Especially Issac) An added bonus was English is spoken fluently

The size of the rooms and unfortunately there was scaffolding preventing the view

Lovely romantic small hotel -you cant get better than the Trevi fountain lulling you to sleep at night. "Very Room with a View " Staff helpful and very friendly. Great location. The terrace is truely magical for breakfast. I travel in Italy a lot I am half Italian and very rarely stay at the same place twice but on this occaision I will return Dr Nick Malpeli

The Fontana Hotel literally sits right in front of the Trevi Fountain, one of the most visited landmarks in all of Rome. This made for lots of excitement and great people watching. The location is also fantastic in terms of its proximity to many of Rome's greatest attractions, all of which are within a comfortable walking distance. Some of these include: the Coliseum, the Pantheon, the Forum, and the Vatican. Considering its wonderful location right in the heart of Rome, our family thought it was a very good value for the money. The hotel staff was cordial, and we thought the bellman, Isaac, was especially helpful.

While the hotel's proximity to the Trevi Fountain was fine for our family, I think the high level of noise and activity just outside one's window at all hours of the day and night could be bothersome to some guests. In addition, we were never told when we made our reservation that there was construction going on at the hotel, which included scaffolding that completely blocked the view from our room and from the breakfast room as well. The hotel is adequately appointed and suited our needs just fine, but it is not luxurious and the amenities are quite basic. This included the breakfast, which was adequate, but nothing special.

Location great. Can walk to Spanish steps Parthenon and of course the fountain is there. At first I felt the staff were rude but then I realized it was the Italian demeanor. Everyone was helpful. Breakfast good. All basics are met. Mood is very Italian and the area is lively with lots of cafes and shops. Hotel had some charm.

Hotel a bit dingy. I grew fond of it during my 3 night stay though and later enjoyed it for it's old world atmosphere . Sort of bohemian chic. I did not like the small shower however. Ac worked and lots of antiques in room.
