      It was a pleasant, clean and modern place to stay before we left Italy the next morning. The free shuttle service to the airport was a nice perk. The evening reception desk person was very friendly and also gave us great advise of a good place to eat in the area.

      "Good value." Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Feb 26, 2013

      All in all a great little B&B. Only small annoyances location on main street a bit loud, internet when it did work: it was very slow. Housekeeping only available before 12pm. So if you are not out of your room by then you won't have toilet paper, fresh towels etc. Good perks free snacks and and drinks.

    Hotels.com Guest Rating
    TripAdvisor Traveller Rating
    Great hotel! They were so friendly, courteous, and helpful! I definitely would recommend staying here. The cab drive from FCO to the hotel was over... 80Euro (yikes) but they were able to get us a set rate back to FCO for 55Euro, which was much more palatable. The room was clean and roomy (for European hotel rooms). They had a hair dryer & conditioner in the room, which was a HUGE plus (for me). While not in the greatest location, if you don't mind the walk, it wasn't too bad. Colosseum was around a 45 min walk & Vatican is around 30-min walk. Everything else we wanted to see lay somewhere in-between. There are a lot of restaurants in the area though, and most of them are delicious. Again, great stay, and would stay here again if I come back to Rome! Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Mar 13, 2013

    Great hotel! They were so friendly, courteous, and helpful! I definitely would recommend staying here. The cab drive from FCO to the hotel was over 80Euro (yikes) but they were able to get us a set rate back to FCO for 55Euro, which was much more palatable. The room was clean and roomy (for European hotel rooms). They had a hair dryer & conditioner […] in the room, which was a HUGE plus (for me). While not in the greatest location, if you don't mind the walk, it wasn't too bad. Colosseum was around a 45 min walk & Vatican is around 30-min walk. Everything else we wanted to see lay somewhere in-between. There are a lot of restaurants in the area though, and most of them are delicious. Again, great stay, and would stay here again if I come back to Rome! Read more

    I was hoping to change my Euros into american dollars. When I asked them if they could, their policies was they can't I believe that was pretty lame.There was no harm done. There directions wasn't precise when you asked one of the staff on how to get to a certain location. They don't have a clue on how to direct you by bus. On the breakfast box, I got […] white bread instead of whole wheat and I requested hard boiled eggs, in I didn't get it. I didn't recieved a bottle of wine with a note informing me, if I need anything, to let them know. It was a good, well intended gesture, but I asked and in return, I didn't get what i wanted.

    The River Palace Hotel was wonderful and I would recommend it to anyone. It has a great location: just steps from the "A" metro line, which goes to pretty much all the tourist sites you'd want to get to, but also an easy walk from most of Rome: 10 minutes to the Spanish Steps or Trevi Fountain, 15 minutes to the Pantheon, 20 or so minutes to the Vatican. […] We rarely took the metro but instead walked almost everywhere, even down to the Colosseum and Forum. The hotel is also extremely clean, which was very important to my travel partner and I. No complaints there. Your price includes a buffet breakfast with your stay, and the food is good. There is a fair amount of variety - toast, eggs, cereal, all sorts of breakfast meats, fruits, pastries, etc. You will not go hungry and will need this food to fuel your sightseeing! Plus, American coffee AND tea options. The staff is extremely friendly, welcoming, and helpful. The bed was comfortable and the shower had hot water and good water pressure. The only thing to note about this hotel is that the room was small. If you are looking for a spacious hotel room, this is not the hotel for you. That said, it was fine for two of us for the week for sleeping, emailing, showering, and reading. There is a spacious bar and lounge on the hotel's ground floor if you need more space, and how much time do you plan to spend in your room while in Rome? We loved this hotel and highly recommend it.

    Excellent location for a couple who enjoys walking to see the sights. Clean hotel, friendly service. HINT: Ask the hotel to have Alexandro pick you up from the airport and bring you to the hotel. He is an outstanding driver with great english. He gave us a tour of the City on our ride to the hotel--and was the most welcoming "face" we met our our 8 […] day trip. Really a very nice person. Thank you, Alexandro. Small rooms at the Hotel (really tiny by American standards--however who really cares when you are only sleeping in the room--as every waking hour you want to spend walking this exciting city). We walked to all the major sights: Spanish Steps, Trevi Fountain, Pantheon, Colosseum, and Vatican City (and many more) right from the hotel. The hotel is right outside the Plazza Del Poppolo (right outside the old Roman Wall). Read more

    The River Palace was a clean, well located and well priced hotel at the end of the Via de Corso. The rooms were small and the carpeting and decor look very tired and worn.

Just make sure when your taxi drops you from the airport you […] are at the right hotel. We got dropped off at the sister hotel River Château and had to pay an additional cab fee. Visit every church. They are beautiful. Don't visit Italy in July it was entirely to hot. Be sure to see the Borghese Museum a short walk from the hotel. The food, the people and the history make a visit to Italy so worthwhile and memorable. This was the 3rd hotel we stayed at that I booked on Expedia. They were all equally nice. Read more

    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.

    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. Read more

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. Read more

    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. Read more

    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.

    We loved this hotel. It is located right near the Piassa De Popolo which leads you to many main streets to walk to attractions, so it is close to everything. We walked everywhere which is a blast to do in Rome. They upgraded us for free which was nice. They have an outstanding free breakfast buffet that included eggs, meats, cheeses, desserts, sparking […] wine . . . They play classic rock in all areas of the hotel. They have two computers for guest to use for free, which helped us to check email and give updates on Facebook. There are some great restaurants very close as well. We would stay there again.

    Great location about 7 minutes from the Spanish Steps and Trevi Fountain. Easy to find - convenient by the Metro (Red Line, Fluminco stop). We were upgraded to a Deluxe room, which had a great bathroom and comfortable beds. Breakfast had lots of variety and was delicious. Hotel bar offered 50% during Happy Hour (6-10). Very helpful staff (though not […] the most knowledgable, they try). If you're interested in a tour of the Vatican, I recommend using Angel Tours (knowledgable, reasonable, youthful, helpful, English-speaking, small groups). Nearby were 3 main shopping streets, the main one (del Corso) leads to the main Piazza by the Roman Forum and Colosseum (literally 10 minutes walk if you walk quickly). Would be honored to stay here again! Read more

    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. Read more

    This was a trip of a life time!! We have a group of friends that wanted to take a trip outside of America we all decided on Rome being that we lived (husband and I) there 10 years ago it would be great to have them experience what we did the food the culture and the wonderful historical sites filled our imaginations. The hotel was outstanding in all […] ways from customer service to the cleaniness of the room. Everyone that work in the hotel was friendly and willing to help as much as possible. Expedia did a wonderful job by keeping us inform about changes. Your site is true to word. I was a little uneasy about using a site such as this but it paid off tremdously. Thank you to Expedia and River Palace for such outstanding services. Read more

    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 Read more

    Just completed an 8 day stay at the River Palace while attending a conference. Overall the hotel was well appointed and would certainly be acceptable for those on a vacation/holiday where you are busy sightseeing all day. However, I was here for business and the River Palace was not a good choice, especially after seeing numerous other hotels (of my […] colleagues) in the same price range. A particular challenge was internet access – the connection was spotty to begin with, and the last 72 hours of my trip it was down completely everywhere in the hotel. This was a huge issue, especially as I had work to do every day. I would seriously recommend considering another hotel if internet access is a priority. The benefits of the River Palace include easy access to Piazza Popolo, a short walk to historic sights (an easy 15-20 minutes), a nice breakfast, and a nice happy hour with snacks (perfect for returning after a long day of sightseeing). However, there is no gym, the rooms are small (the single rooms are like a closet) as are the showers (VERY tiny), and the staff can be a bit rude. Overall, River Palace is probably fine for those on holiday but business travelers can probably fine something with more reliable amenities. Read more

    This was a wonderful hotel in a great location. Close to the Metro and walking distance to the Spanish Steps, Piazza del Popolo and the three main streets in the area.

The deluxe room was perfect for my husband and I even though it was smaller than what we are accustomed to it was plenty […] of room for us and our our two large suitcases.

    This was our first visit to Rome so I do not profess to know much about the competitor hotels. But, I can say that it is unimaginable to us to think that there are any better hotels in the city. Our room was truly palatial and the entire hotel staff were nothing less than wonderful during our 4 night stay. Centrally located, 100 meters from the subway, […] ability to walk to the Vatican, (about 30minutes), Spanish steps, (about 10minutes), upscale and moderate shopping (10 minutes) and a block from the Piazza Popolo (gateway to everything). Our guide spent 8 hours with us touring Rome by car and foot and we were never more than 30 minutes from the hotel and that includes the catacombs. We would strongly suggest hiring a private guide when visiting the Vatican and purchase your tickets online prior to arrival. Your guide and pre purchased tickets will save you hours standing on line. A truly exceptional hotel in a charming and vibrant city. Read more

    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. Read more

Favorite place we stayed at in the three weeks we spent in Europe. The breakfast alone was worth the price of the hotel each night! Highly recommend.
