I'd meant to review this pedestrian mall a couple weeks ago. Galleria Alberto Sordi is a wonderful…read morelittle shopping area with a handful of name brands and Italian designers. Clean and well-kept, its aesthetics are in keeping with Roman expectations. High fashion and elegant stores come together in a relaxed setting. It is also a great place to caffeinate and satisfy a sweet tooth. Algorithmic references: exceptional service, unsurpassed value, money well spent.

While walking back from various sites to our hotel we came through this open mall... It was nice to…read morewalk through and it offered decent shopping. The building itself is beautiful too.

Rinascente is your fancy shopping destination in the heart of Rome. The store itself isn't super…read morebig but if you love Italian luxury brands you'll be pleased. Ground floor is the big names (Prada, Vuitton etc), then there's 2 floors each for men/women. The top floor has restaurants/food - a great place to grab gifts. I had an incredibly delicious mortadella panini up there and really, it wasn't overpriced. Don't sleep on the basement - that's home stuff. Italian design is incredible, I'd love to buy everything! Tax refund is down here too, if you spend more than €70, remember your passport and SAVE!

My boyfriend and I came here for a shopping and browsing break. Here are the layout of their floors: -1 | exhibition area, design supermarket, furniture and lighting, office & travel 0 | jewelry and watches, accessories, sunglasses 1 | beauty, beauty bar, jewelry 2 | fashion menswear, shoes 3 | classic and smart casual menswear, denim bar, underwear, accessories 4 | luxury womenswear, shoes 5 | modern and contemporary womenswear, denim bar, lingerie, accessories 6 | foodhall and terrace, café and restaurants, food markets and wine shop 7 | restaurants and terrace I was curiously browsing my beloved Burberry because I heard rumors that the Italians hate England, so Burberry is the cheapest in Italy. It didn't seem all that much cheaper. I had the most fun on the 6th floor browsing the food market and exploring the food hall and terrace. Umm, and FREE BATHROOM ALERT!! Public bathrooms are NOT free in Italy so these are some nice clean free ones. A nice break to escape the crowds and smoke in the city.

My experience in the middle of the day allowed me to get through within 25 minutes. The stores and restaurants had all the duty-free items you may want at a somewhat marked up price in my view. Bathrooms were clean and timely as well - with a lot of privacy and space. Overall, I found myself comfortable in my time here - not bad!

This is an awesome mall. When I'm in here, I feel like I'm…read morein America again! Bonus points because they let dogs in the mall! Tons of places including Zara, H&M, Nike, Billabong, Foot Locker, Ikea, Leroy Merlin (which is like Home Depot), Decathalon (which is like Sports Authority or Dicks sporting goods), Sephora (HOORAY), MAC Makeup, an Apple Store (!!!), a movie theatre, and so much more! The parking garage is huge and a little confusing but I don't care, it's covered which is pretty awesome. This mall is totally awesome!!

This is a very high end boutique that houses luxury retail stores with the likes of Louis Vuitton,…read moreGucci, Givenchy, Chanel to name a few. It's like stepping into candyland . Initially our goal was to get our VAT refund out of the way but ended up shopping for a passport holder and ring at Louis Vuitton. Tourist trap lol. Joking aside this is a one stop shop for people who hates walking around Via Condotti ... it's a real workout. So go ahead enjoy and splurge your hard end $$$... you won't regret it ! Wink wink

At the very top of the building, floor 6 or 7, you will find that there is an entire floor dedicated to a Cafe, hosted by a handful of separate diners to choose from. The options range from pizza, to sushi, to sandwiches, or just coffee and pastries. Come on in, look at the splendor of the clothing you can't afford, enjoy the wafts of perfume, walk past the service members starring you down, and then enjoy a snack up top. Even if you don't buy anything, it looks damn fancy and it's a refreshing spot with free wifi, and a pokestop nearby.

My visit to the OVS department store in Rome was nice because they had many selections, similar to a Macy's in the USA and prices were very reasonable. Purrrrr. However, I was looking for clothing made in Italy and most of the items I saw were made in Bangladesh or other countries, Hisssss. That's also the reason the prices were reasonable. No problem though, I simply stepped out and found all the items that were made in Italy in the many big , medium, and small stores all around Rome. Purrrrr. I felt like such a Pretty Kitty doing the cat walk down Via Del Corso carrying my nip in a purrrrfect Italian leather pouch and smelling like a Devine Feline wearing luxe perfume made by "Gatta". Purr more Hiss less. Meow.

FAKE GUCCI BAG Don't buy anything from there!! I got my bag…read morein this store about 2 months ago and was very happy about it until I realized that it's fake - the color from the leather details started to go off and leave stains on my clothing (which was not normal). I ordered an expertise which proved that the item is fake. Thanks god I could return the money with the help of my bank but this experience ruined vintage shopping for me forever!! Highly NOT RECOMMENDED

YES for all the items they sell; OMG it's almost a museum of several decades of the 20th Century!…read more I found a beautiful, 1950s Dior-style dress (didn't have a label, but I would not be surprised if it were the actual real deal), and the price was steep - but reasonable. The only thing that really put me off, was the man ín the store itself - maybe the owner as far as I could tell. SO unfriendly! I had a few questions and he was pretty snarky. Eeeeehm, yes well didn't spike my willingness to spend my money. So I didn't... They have fantastic leather bags, trunks, shoes, jackets, clothes for both men and women and definitely a great shop worth visiting to wander and snoop around. You can definitely find unique items here so expect some hidden gems and ignore any unfriendliness you might encounter. Maybe he just had a really bad day....
