My best advice is: Book upgraded room, superior. All other rooms are VERY small and windows to the back. Upgraded rooms are fronteed to the fonten and have aircondition. The breakfast was terrible, and the manager was rude when we tryed to complain on breakfast. All in all, avoid this hotel More

This quirky hotel - no two rooms are the same - is all about its location. The Breakfast room has the best view in Rome! (you can also go up their in the evening for a night-cap.) The staff are friendly and efficient without fawning all over you. A lot of the previous reviewer's talked about the flat screen tellies.... More

Rooms were small but clean and cosy , we were thrilled that we had a room with a view but when I opened the shutters there was scaffolding right in front of the window but this didn't spoil our stay there . The staff were very friendly and helpful . When we stepped out of the main entrance the Trevi... More

we stayed at this hotel for 2 nights. our room, facing the back, was relatively quiet. we paid 130€ per night- which we thought was a great price for a hotel in this stunning location. the room was nice and clean, with very tiny shower, though. the breakfast room on top was supberb, especially the view towarda the trevi fountain....

I just returned from another trip to Rome and the Hotel Fontana. As a hotelier myself and a well-travelled snob (for lack of a better term) I prefer to stay in delux 4* or 5* properties and I will be the first to admit that at first glance, this hotel does not fall into those categories...HOWEVER, I refuse to stay...

Booked superior double room through Expedia based on the description on the hotel website, which claims a view of the Travi Fountain. However, upon check-in we discovered that the view was blocked by a giant billboard that was attached to the maintenance scaffolding. The billboard had an advertisement for a car. The hotel must be making money of that billboard.... More

We stayed there for 3 nights and the hotel's location just gave us an opportunity to visit all historic places by walking, including Vatican City, only in 3 days. During our stay the exterior of hotel was under renovation, so we couldn't see the Trevi Fountain from the terrace but we unfortunately experienced a very weak breakfast and worse attitude... More

Rooms are small with very basic amenities. Great to so close to the fountain but the noise keeps you awake if you select a room overlooking the fountain. Breakfast was the worst of our trip. More

I stayed one night in a single room. The room was literally the size of a double bed and no window but an opening in the ceiling. Apparently double rooms are nicer but none were available. However it was clean and of course the location was very convenient. Still, not worth the 180 euro pricetag. More

Dear Guest, Thank you for your review. As you probably know the building of the Hotel Fontana originally housed a monastery which was converted to accommodate guests during the late 1700’s. It has been regularly refurbished throughout the ensuing centuries and finally in 1976 was transformed into the Hotel Fontana that awaits you today. This is why...each room is different... More

We found out about the renovations by email, decided to stay there anyway and loved it. We booked "Superior" rooms and they were great; one in the back of the hotel with a lovely barreled ceiling bathroom, and one in the front with a little entry hall leading into the main room. Both baths had a tub/shower. The beds were... More
