Albergo del Sole al Biscione

Fodor's Review:

Built on the ruins of the ancient Theater of Pompey, in the very heart of the timeless Campo de' Fiori area, this little gem has one of the quaintest multilevel terraces in old Rome; stunning views are guaranteed, with center stage taken by the great dome of Santa Andrea della Valle. Don't be put off by the hotel's neon-ish sign out front—the atmosphere inside is cozy, with open-beam ceilings and old-fashioned furnishings. Modern comforts include an elevator. Rooms are set out in simple pensione style, featuring early-20th-century wardrobes and veneer bed frames. Don't confuse this with the famous Albergo del Sole al Pantheon hotel. Pros: some truly spacious rooms for this area (but beware, some rooms are also quite small); parking garage in the hotel; roof garden with views of the neighborhood and local cupolas. Cons: some rooms are small and lack private bathrooms or a/c; there is no elevator on the first floor; it can be noisy both inside and out.
