Albergo Del Senato: Best View And Best Service    Check Rates
  • Tip Rating:
  • Satisfaction:
  • Hotel Del Senato gives you one of the best views in the city from most rooms. If you are the lucky ones who stay in one of the corner rooms -- for instance, room 602 -- that view extends out to your own large terrace over looking Piazza della Rotonda. However, if you do not stay in such rooms, the rooftop terrace bar would be an excellent place to have a drink with the view of the Vittoriano and Michelangelo's Cupola in sight.

    A three-star hotel with a four-star service, Hotel Del Senato is a great place to stay if you don’t mind paying the price. The four-poster bed, the fresco on the ceiling, and the large bathroom with Jacuzzi tub are the obvious touches of elegant, but the little details are what make guests return to the hotel time after time. Some of our friends do, and we understand why. The staffs in Hotel Del Senato know how to make every guest feel important and at the same time, feel at home. It’s is an art, and it’s a lost art.

    The pigeons on the terrace were our only beef with the hotel, although it was not the hotel’s fault really. The birds were vicious, they attacked our drinks while the drinks were still in our hand, they knocked over the bowls of our munchies, fighting and squawking like banshee, and they did not stop even when we swatted them away.

  • I just loved the Albergo del Senato! Though it is considered a 3 star hotel, it looks like a small luxury hotel. Its location couldn't be better, right in the Piazza della Rotonda, next to the Pantheon. You can easily walk anywhere from here. There are many good restaurants nearby as well.

    The rooms are lovely, with marble bathrooms and some have balconies with views to the Pantheon. The breakfasts were delicious, a nice buffet with many different breads, cold meats, cakes, yogurts and fruit. The breakfast room and several lounges had beautiful frescoes on the walls and celings.

    In the evening we could hear wonderful classical music coming from the Piazza. Truly romantic!

    The price is a bit expensive , I paid 275 euros at the time for a triple room but it was well worth the money and I can't think of a better place to stay in Rome. Highly recommended!

    “In the highest spirits we entered Rome, Robert and Penini singing actually; for the child was radiant and flushed with the continual change of air and scene, and he had an excellent scheme about ‘tissing the Pope’s foot,’ to prevent his taking away ‘mine gun,’ somebody having told him that such dangerous weapons were not allowed by the Roman police.”
    — Elizabeth Barrett Browning (1806-1861) from a letter she wrote to a friend, Miss Mary Russell Mitford, about her husband and son in 1854

    When you book a room at the Albergo del Senato (AdelS, as the hotel abbreviates it) you are in the heart of Rome. The Eternal City is compact and from the front door of this hotel you can walk everywhere.

    Facing Piazza della Rotonda (see photo #3), with antiquity’s most well-preserved building, the Pantheon (see photo #2), as its dominant feature, this three-star hotel is housed in a late 19th-century palazzo designed by Gaetano Koch (1849-1910), the architect responsible for Palazzo Margherita, now the American Embassy, in the Via Veneto.

    Although our room, #304, was small, because it faced the open piazza we had a sense of space. Cleanliness is a top priority at the del Senato, even the façade (see photo #1) is the cleanest and brightest of any on the square! The bed’s mattress was firm for a good night’s rest. The gold-colored damask fabric that covers walls help lend a note of elegance, as did the crown molding in the main room and the bathroom.

    The hot water instantly flows from the faucets in the black and white marble tiled bathroom. The terrycloth robes are plush and, oh so, comfortable. The towels are generously sized; but as with many European hotels washcloths are not provided, so bring your own as we do when we travel.

    The staff is sincerely friendly and helpful; all of them speak English quite well. Take a look at Mariano (photo #5), our hotel’s daytime front desk attendant; he is the very definition of a handsome Italian man. He was charming, helpful and polite as well as good-looking: what a combination! I recognize that in our t-shirt-and-jeans society, hotel laundry service is not of much use to most guests. At AdelS this service is pricey but very good; the two white dress shirts I had pressed were expertly, and efficiently, ironed.

    The complementary buffet breakfast is simple but satisfying. In mild weather take time for a drink on the rooftop terrace, with funnyman bartender Michele serving refreshments. The view from here is magical: all of the domes of the Eternal City are at eye-level.

    Whenever we go to Rome, we will stop again at this charming albergo.

  • My husband, daughter and I spent 5 nights at this wonderful hotel.

    The rooftop bar overlooking the Pantheon is the perfect place to spend time after a busy day of sightseeing.

  • My rate for a single room was 139EUR, approx 127USD

    I thoroughly enjoyed staying at this hotel. It is located at the Piazza della Rotonda, the location of the Pantheon. My room overlooked the Piazza. The hotel was clean, the staff was friendly, service was good, and the location is most optimal. It took no more than 15-20 minutes walk-time to any of the major tourist sites. Some of the staff speak English. Since I was there during my birthday, I was wished Happy Birthday by most of the hotel staff that saw me; quite unexpected! I highly recommend this hotel.
