Hotel Ponte Sisto

Fodor's Review:

With one of the prettiest patio-courtyards in Rome (Europe?), this hotel offers its own blissful defintition of Pax Romana. Peace, indeed, will be yours sitting in this enchanting spot, shadowed by gigantic palm-trees, set with tables, and adorned with pink and white flowers, all surrounded by the suavely ochre walls of the hotel, which was renovated in 2001 from a palazzo built by the noble Venetian Palottini family. Some rooms overlook the garden of the historic Palazzo Spada. Inside is more peace, thanks to the sleek decors, replete with cherry wood accents, recessed lighting, and luminous marble floors. Guest rooms are cool cocoons, bathrooms can be lavishly modern, and there's a handy bar and restaurant. The location is an award-winner -- just off the Ponte Sisto, the pedestrian bridge that connects the Campo de' Fiori area with Trastevere (whose trattorias and bars are thus just a delightful jaunt away), and a second from Via Giulia, Rome's prettiest street.

Very Nice Modern Hotel in Old Rome

Posted by robtaylor from Houston, Texas USA on 7/24/07
Stayed here in July '07 and had a wonderful time. The staff is professional and friendly and a nice breakfast is served in the impressive courtyard in the warmer months. Excellent location for exploring central Rome; just steps from the Tiber/Ponte Sisto.
