My wife and I stayed two nights June 7-8 on our 25th Wedding Anniversary. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone staying in Rome. The cost was reasonable and the location -- walking distance to Piazza Novella, the Trevi Fountain, Pantheon and Spanish Steps -- was even better. What sold me on the hotel was a recommendation in Frommers that... More

we enjoyed the location of this little boutique hotel in the heart of Rome. It lacks a restaurant, and some of the other amenities you might expect in a bigger property, but makes up for it with a friendly staff, great location, and comfortable rooms. More

The Hotel Fontanella Borghese is well-located, has excellent service, and has clean, small rooms -- a positive formula for success in central Rome. However, among 20 two and three star hotels in Italy, we found this by far the most minimal breakfast -- an embarrassment to Italian hospitality and certainly to these owners. Packaged cheese, packaged lunch meat, absence of... More

Located halfway between the Spanish Steps and Vatican City, Borghese Hotel strives to make every guest's stay the most enjoyable. A nice continental breakfast starts your day off on a good note, and the myriad of good restaurants within 100 yeards makes a great ending to each day. Hotel sits back off of street, and entrance is thru a courtyard... More

This was a wonderful choice for our stay in Rome. The hotel is centrally located, minutes from the Pantheon and the Spanish Steps. Its not a fancy place: the hotel is on the third floor, but the rooms are good sized, clean, comfortable beds, and relatively quiet given the central location. The owner and staff were very helpful and friendly.... More

Many sites and good restaurants are within walking distance. Use Claudio Caponera's limoinrome for transfers and you have a winning combination. More

You can't beat the location and value. Between the Spanish Steps and Piazza Narvona. You are also close to the Vatican and tons of great restaurants. The rooms are spacious, with nice bathrooms (both by European standards). While the furnishings quality, they are dated. The breakfast is standard European, in other words good but not much food.

Due to reviews online we tried this Hotel Fontanella Borghese. Its a quaint hotel with an old lift to the 2nd flr. About 20 steps up to our room, but that was fine. Room overlooked courtyard & oh so quiet. Secure gate closed at night. Wireless 5 euros per day & TV shows in Italian. Wow, what a great location;... More

Italian charm, located away from major tourism yet still 5-10 min. walk away from the Piazza di Spanga. Not much for views but you could hear accordians playing nightly outside the shuttered windows. "Khaled" a staff member at the front desk was especially helpful and kind with making our stay at Fontanella a pleasant one. More
