excellent location, only a 30 minute trek (downhill) towards St Peters Square. Trevi round the corner but far enough away for tourist traffic not to be an issue.
room, staff & breakfast buffet was excellent, i couldn't sing their praises high enough. Excellent shower!
Maybe a little out of the way for authentic Italian eateries, but the discovery is everything right? Thoroughly enjoyed the stay, will definitely be back
Lovely hotel in great location. Metro situated 5 mins walk away.
Staff were very attentive and helped us with transport and general enquiries on Rome.
Loved the hotel small but fab.
Thank you For a super stay.
Julia and Nadine on reception were lovely and so helpful. :))
We liked pretty much everything about our stay. The room was clean, AC worked well, the free breakfast was quite good and the front desk staff were friendly and helpful. In the evening the area around hotel was quiet and we always felt safe.
Staff was amazing and helpful, the hotel is nicely decorated and kept clean daily. We received a bottle of water every day in the room and fresh fruit as well as a bottle of wine on our arrival. The area is very nice and safe with a lot of restaurants to choose from and was able to walk to all major attractions, would definently stay here again.
The hotel is cute and has a nice ubicación, can walk Via Vittorio easy, lots of restaurants around and bus and taxis. El hotel give you breakfast included and was very good. The staff very nice and helpful. It’s a really good option.
The room was absolutely spotless. The facilities were fantastic - we were in a beautiful room with views of the Borghese walls - perfect location and lovely street outside. The staff were really friendly and helpful. The breakfast was a lovely buffet mix - breakfast cereals, fruit, cakes and fruit tart, sandwiches, bread rolls of various types, sliced bread for toast, butter, spreads and jams, sliced meats and cheeses as well as nuts, biscuits and bruschetta - really good coffee machine and hot chocolate - fabulous choice offered.
Very convenient location and central to all areas we were wanting to see. Very friendly and helpful staff that provided fabulous guidance to restaurants and areas to visit.
It’s a great location to stay in!
Walkable distance to all the spots you want to visit and close to bus stops if you’re traveling a little bit further out.

The Shire was a wonderful boutique hotel in a convenient area of Rome. It was charming and hospitable and our room was everything we expected and more. It was hip and comfortable. The staff was warm and welcoming. We would definitely stay here again!
All of the staff were fantastic! The location was easily walkable from the train station and there were many dining options around. I will definitely stay here again the next time I’m in Rome!
