Fodor's Expert Review Hotel Dei Mellini

On the west bank of the Tiber between the Spanish Steps and St. Peter's Basilica (a five-minute stroll from Piazza del Popolo and a ten-minute walk from the nearest Metro station), this modern luxury hotel is removed from the chaos of the centro storico. Rooms are tastefully furnished in contemporary design with mahogany furniture, antique prints, hardwood floors, and bathrooms decked out in Carrara marble. Amenities include a bar, cafeteria, solarium, gym, and rooftop garden.
