Historics in Rome

The Hotel Giulio Caesar provided a great and memorable stay for our family of six. The concierge contacted us via e-mail before we left and asked if we needed a car from the airport. They arranged for one van for all six with luggage for 72 euros -- very reasonable, since we would have needed two cabs. The driver was there before our luggage. We arrived at 6:00 am and one room was available - totally unexpected. The rooms each had three beds. One son (21 yrs old) complained mattress was too hard. For me it was great !. Rooms were nicely sized. En suite bathroom had plentiful towels and excellent toiletries. Air conditioning worked well. Minibar/fridge in room with water, jiuces and soda priced as they would be near tourist locations (2 - 3 euros) and you have room for your own. Breakfasts were wonderful, eggs, bacon, sausage, fresh pastries, cakes, good quality meats (salumi, proscuitto) and very fresh cheeses. Their cappuccino was great and servers.were wonderful. Location on quiet street appreciated. Vatican 10 -15 minute walk, based on agility; Pantheon about 20 mins. Metro stop two blocks away. Buses to everywhere also two blocks (we took one to Trestevere). It met and exceeded our expectations.

A near perfect hotel of elegance and comfort.

Everyone at the front desk made us feel welcome and made wonderful recommendations. Highly recommend this hotel. Commendations to the pastry chef for the costata at ourbreakfast.

Close to the Vatican and other attractions. Nice, clean, comfortable hotel. Good welcome and introduction to the city.

we went for this hotel for the good price and the great location. on first impressions it doesnt look like a lot from the outside but ignore that its far better its clean bright and the staff are probably some of the best youve ever met.the rooms are not massive but plenty big enough with air con and a flat screen tele. the location is great if you could draw a line between all the attractions in rome then this would be right in the middle.there are plenty of great price and good qaulity restaurants all within a few minutes of the hotel. when i go back to rome ( probably 4 years time) then i will stay at this hotel.

Nice location in close proximity to Trevi fountain and Spanish steps.There is a supermarket across the street and several restaurants close by where we had take out pizza that we would then eat in our room so that the kids can watch TV. Pros: great location, we had a very nice and spacious apartment, very modern and in good shape, well functioning air condition, internet works well, friendly staff. Cons: This is a residenca and not a hotel. We arrived by car and wanted to drop off our luggage at the hotel before returning the rental. This is only possible after 18:00 because the hotel is in a limited travel zone and you cannot enter without a permit during the day. A hotel would get exceptions for guests but not a residenca. Plan accordingly when you want to arrive or depart by car. Alternatively you can drop off the car at termini and take a taxi to the hotel.

Great Hotel. Room was very clean. Free WiFi.. Two hot tubs on the main deck. Staff was very nice and helpful.

Gran Melia Roma is a beautiful resort hotel in every sense of the word "resort". Although we didn't take advantage of all the amenities (spa, pool, etc.) we did enjoy one of the restaurants and the outdoor lounge area for beautiful...very nice! Our room was on the 5th floor and the view, past the construction going on next door (only seen, never heard), was a picturesque snapshot of Rome which was absolutely breathtaking at sunrise. The service was great, no complaints there. Everyone from the front desk & concierge to housekeeping to the restaurant staff was very attentive and handled our every need. Other than being given a room with a view of tarp and scaffolding, the only other negative I can think of was the hill you must walk up to get back to the hotel after a day of touring the city. : ) All in all, we'd stay here again.

The hotel building is 400 years old, so don't ex spect a lift if you're an American. Rooms cool, cosy and beds very comfortable. Breakfast when requested in your room, loads of super restaurants nearby and hotel is convenient for all the sights. I couldn't fault it.!!!

Within walking distance to the piazza republica, by Santa Maria degli Angeli church, Near subway. Great local restaurants within walking distance of hotel . You really get a sense of being with the locals in the adorable apartment !
