THIS IS A GREAT HOTEL...!!!
On another review site site, the gushing reviews say "Marco and Serena Rock!", "Nice hotel with awesome hosts!", etc. It's one of the top-rated hotels in all of Rome.
We wholeheartedly agree... this is a GREAT hotel.
Hotel Deko Rome is a small, nice 6 room guest house located on the Italian 2nd floor (what Americans would call 3rd floor) of a nondescript office building in central Rome, right next door to the U.S. Embassy.
The lobby and dining area is small (remember, it's only 6 guest rooms), the cappuccino is fantastic, the breakfasts are really very nice.
The rooms are spacious, beds are comfortable, bathrooms are spacious and updated, and everything is stylish and meticulously clean.
BUT IT ISN'T THE ROOMS that makes this a fantastic hotel. It's the staff - Serena, Marco and the entire staff are fantastic. Just fantastic. Completely fantastic. Utterly fantastic.
When we arrived, Serena spent 30 minutes sitting down with us, pointing out tourist "must do's" and great restaurant and bar recommendations on a big map of Rome. She highlighted everything. It was like having your own personal tour guide of Rome. She was truly wonderful.
Marco, who arrived for the evening shift, was equally wonderful.
Listen to their recommendations and guidance - they really know Rome, and really know what they're talking about...
I've probably slept in 1,000+ hotels in my lifetime, and this was one of the best hotel experiences I've ever had.
Deko isn't fancy. But it's fantastically located, modestly priced, very clean and very comfortable, with an incredible staff.
MY HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION EVER... read more
