The Hotel Hiberia sits in the perfect place for any tourist that wants to see the sights of Rome. Ten minutes walk to The Trevi fountain and a little further to the Spanish Steps. The Colosseum about fifteen minutes away. The Vatican, a little further and we did walk it but there is a bus service just around the corner. Perfect.
As for the hotel well our first impression was what a friendly place. The receptionist signed us in and explained everything we needed to know on the usual tourist map (they are never very good). Our room wasn't quite ready so we went to the small, but cosy, bar for a short while.
The room we had chosen, at a slight extra charge, had a city view. What a view we had. It is the one that is used on the hotels website. Nice large clean room with all the amenities. Great bathroom. In fact only complaint, no not a complaint and query, the lid on the kettle did not close down. I am sure, had we mentioned it, it would have been remedied.
Breakfast was the usual continental breakfast plus. Plenty for everyone with, again, great staff. No complaints again.
Must mention the quirky, old world, lift. I loved it.
If we were to back to Rome then I definitely would stay again. People mention that there are no nearby restaurants. When did a short ten minutes walk do any damage other than build up an appetite. Trust me, there are wonderful restaurants on the way to the Trevi fountain. We tried a few anjd put on quite a bit of weight.
Great hotel, great staff, fantastic position and reasonable price for Rome. read more
