Hotel Piazza Del Gesu Luxury Suites (Rome, Italy)

While not that close to the shopping and social centre near the Spanish Steps, Piazza Del Gusu's location was appreciated by guests who had more of an interest in Rome's ancient past. The forum, Pantheon and Coliseum were all said to be within walking distance and the other sites just a short metro or bus ride away.

The property bills itself as a collection of luxury suites, and going by guest comments it does not seem that they disagree with the classification. They said that they found the rooms very well decorated and furnished.

Guests couldn't seem to say enough good things about the hostess, Jessica. Firstly, they said that her English skills were very good, and secondly, that she was exceptionally welcoming and helpful.

A couple of guests were quite shocked by the size of the standard rooms. While the rooms were said to be very luxurious and well appointed, the standard rooms were described as exceptionally small

While it did not quite cause a guest revolt, there were some who were clearly unhappy about not having in room tea and coffee making facilities. These were sorely missed, especially, it seems, by British visitors.

Though it seemed to surprise no one, several guests pointed out that the location was quite noisy, with cars and people passing by outside. For the most part guests accepted this as a condition of staying in the centre of one of the world's most vibrant cities.
