Relais La Maison De Luxe B&B

I travel a lot for business and get so bored with standard hotels and standard rooms, this looked nice. It is rather strange that there is no reception cover all day/evening. When you get there it is not obvious that the building houses the B&B on the fifth floor,but once you know it kind of gives you an idea that you live in Rome! The room was lovely, wireless worked, the rickety old elevator worked. I tried a meal at 'That's amore' a pizza place opposite, would not recommend it, the 'La Strega' a bit further on, next to ministry of interior affairs (past 'that's amore') was a hell of a lot better.

Breakfast, unimaginative, a very standard coffee machine (no Italian coffee), machine was also slightly dirty and I am not entirely convinced the milk out of the machine was fresh, at least I thought the coffee tasted strange. Yoghurt - I have had better quality in Italy.

The bed was hard but very comfortable. Room was nicely decorated and the shower was of decent size. The location was excellent for walking to most everything and close to a number of railway stations. I would suggest if you stay there to take them up on the offer of a limo service to and from the airport, its only 45euro for 2 and 55 euro for three. For the time and headache saved it was excelent.

My fiance did not like the lighting for doing her makeup. Also the staff is non existant during the night and there is no phones that you can use in the hotel (rooms and lobby). Also there was no full length mirror. In general the staff was not very friendly or helpful.

The room has good sense. It is so comfortable. We had a good time the end of day in Roma. There are good service of food and drink.

There are many rule, if you want to free stay, I don't recomend to stay.

During our stay the room was attended to on a daily basis, always clean towels provided, the bed turned down and tidied up. The communal areas were clean and edgy and provided a comfortable environment to eat.The room was modern and quirky whilst providing a little luxary.The b&b was within walking distance to everything and provided a good resting place after taking in the sights.

The room to eat was breakfast was a little cramped and breakfast was fresh everyday but would of liked some variety.

Nice B&B with spacious rooms and recently renovated with very polite staff. The bathroom was very OK, with a nice big jacuzzi shower. Breakfast was OK, but don't expect too much (you are in Italy).

The owners restaurant recommendation wasn't such a good experience, don't go there (around the corner). Go to one of the restaurants at Via Leonina instead.

There was a problem with the internet connection. I'm sure its been repaired by now

What I liked the most was the friendliness and kindness of the hotel's receptionist Mr. Tony. He was ready to help in any way possible. He would greet us every morning with a huge smile on his face. He made our trip as enjoyable as possible. When you stay at this hotel it feels just like home. We felt ourselves having a breakfast in our kitchen. Tony you are the best ! we have already missed you !:) We hope to see you there when we visit with our future kids :):)` !!

elevator needs to be updated

Very nice and quiet place to live in Rome. Could serve ourselves coffee/tea and other drinks etc whenever we wanted and the breakfast room had a very nice view to Santa Maria di Maggiore (church).

The room was clean, attractive and comfortable. The English speaking employee was fairly knowledgeable and helpful. They actually added nothing to making the stay enjoyable.

I did not like the lift and the fact that it was so small that luggage had to be transported piece by piece. I also feel that when entering the downstairs hallway there is no signage to indicate what floor to enter the establishment. Desk not monitored on a 24 hour basis.

private, small and intimate

cancellation policy is minimum 10 days for any refund. many other booking.com locations are 3 day or even 1 day before for changes.

This is a b&b on a good location with spacious rooms. Unlike earlier reviews I found the breakfast good, compared to other italian hotels. The breakfast space is limited, but adequate. There are ten chairs for twelve guests. It's unlikely the all eat at the same time in a two hour timespan.

It's true that the elevator is old and a bit clumsy to use. I agree with earlier reviews about the hard beds. For me the combination of a hard bed with a soft en thin cushion was a bit problematic. Bring your own cushion and you will be fine.

This was our favorite hotel during our two week trip to Italy. The staff was great, as was the location. We could walk to everything but the Vatican, which was only ten minutes away via Metro. We had plenty of room for four. I highly recommend this B&B.
