Excellent location, excellent and spacious executive double room. My only complain was the noise made by the litter collection van at around 2am every night, otherwise the hotel and surrounding areas are very quiet. Not always easy to comunicate in english with some of the staff.

This was a very comfortable and welcoming hotel. We had a bit of a problem with room cleaning for one day but after that it was excellent. Wonderful location for walking around Rome.

As stated by others, the location was excellent and beautiful!! There are many dining choices within a short walk, and the restaurants close late. The room was spacious, considering that I booked for a single room. I paid $218, which is a little expensive, it could be well worth the money if they had made some investment to remodel the interior of the room. But if you like shabby chic style, you will love this place. Please be aware that this is no metro (A line) after 9pm if you come from the train station.

The Nationale is ideal for shopping and sightseeing. It has huge rooms with fascinating paintings, furnishings and decor. Staying there once is a great experience - second time you notice its faults. Its all fading and looking past its best, with creaky floors and noisy corridors. Good breakfasts, but go out for dinner... restaurant is not great. We'd still recommend it though.

Stayed in one of the deluxe rooms, which was absolutely stunning, very large room, beautifully decorated and a great view over the square. The staff were very welcoming, polite and efficient. Thoroughly enjoyed the stay. Altough the hotel may seem above average in terms of cost, it is worth every penny. Also fantastic location for sightseeing

A first class hotel with a first clas staff. Service was excellent - staff was very accommodating and polite. Worth the price to me since we stayed for a while, I wanted to be in an area convenient to everything in Rome.

The number one asset of this hotel is its location; just about everything is within walking distance. It is also quiet, because the square where it is located is restricted to traffic. The building opposite is a government department, so security is tight in the area. We stayed for three nights in August, which is officially low season. This meant that, I guess, around 20% of the shops and businesses in Rome were closed for holidays. Not a problem for us tourists though, as there were also quite a lot fewer Romans around. Even in low season, there are still plenty of shops and restaurants open in the immediate vicinity, although the hotel's restaurant was closed at the time of our visit. The Nazionale is certainly not cheap, but I would say on balance, it is fair value for money.

I and my wife visited Rome for vacation purposes for the (ca.) 25th time, and this hotel for the 7th time. Before we have stayed at Nazionale through travel packages. Of course this means that we both think that Albergo Nazionale is an excelent hotel. Since one purpose was some private celebration, we chose a de Luxe room for the price of 333 euro per room per night. The "de Luxe" meant: a really huge room (ca. 50 m2 with 6 m under ceiling) on the first floor (110) facing piazza Montecitorio (unfortunately the parliament building was covered due to renovation work). We got new bed linen every day! It contained a big original painting, a nice sofa for three to sit comfortably, one comfortable chair (should have been 2), a desk with one regular chair, and a small and old-fashioned TV-set. Judged from the photographs on the web, I expected more chairs. More importantly I expected access to a roof terrace which is presented in a video on the web. When I asked about it, they denied its existence (!). I believe that the terrace, which is clearly visible from the piazza, is reserved for those renting the roof suite only. This is my main negative comment - because the advertisement is cheating customers and should be removed! Everything else is close to perfect in this hotel: The reception welcomes you with your name and the papers are all ready waiting for your arrival; they speak excellent English (even though I like to practice my Italian); They help you to get tickets to concerts, book restaurant tables etc.; The AC is refreshing all 24 hours in all parts of the hotel; The breakfast is just excellent; and the classic renasissance style of the hotel lobby/bar is just something else (this is NOT plastic!). The hotel location nothing but perfect! Highly recommendable - also with standard rooms (which are considerably cheaper)! We'll stay there again - it's our first choice in Rome (I have stayed at 10 different hotels in Rome before).

We had a fabulous stay even though we were only there for two nights. Great location, very quiet and the staff was very helpful.

Convenient location, I would stay there again if going to Rome. We booked a standard double but were given a superior room. There is building work going on at the moment on the property opposite which starts at 7.00am. Didn't worry us, but it might concern some!

WE have been in Rome on two previous occassions. This hotel was by far the best location we have experienced. It is central to shops, sights and facilities. The hotel was first class, clean, friendly and efficient. I was however, not impressed with the hotel restraunt, which was disappointing, especially at the prices charged. The hotel was expensive, but you got what you paid for which was location.The staff were friendly and efficient and helpful.The room was very nice in a traditional way.

From Scott Hunter - USA

We were very pleased with the hotel. Starting with the reservation procedure, the hotel was very cooperative in providing arrival and train information. The desk folks were very warm and helpful, arranged for a guide and did what was necessary. Our room was quite large and beautifully decorated. We had an amazing New Year's Eve dinner at the hotel. The ONLY complaint was the breakfast which didn't have as much variety as I would have liked. We also liked the location, around the corner from the Pantheon and a few blocks from the Trevi Fountain.
