LUXURY HOTEL RECOMENDATION-ROME
I was hoping that you can all help. My sister and I will be visiting Rome for the first time at the end of June. We would like your help in staying at a hotel which is luxurious as well as centrally located. I ideally would want to stay at the Westin Excelsior but cannot justify spending 650 Euros/night. (seems that once July 1 comes along-- rate drops in 1/2). <BR><BR>Any great hotels you can recomend that are located ideally and are considered 5*. I also am not a big fan of older hotels-- like staying at more updated places. <BR><BR>Thanks in advance for your help!<BR>

You may want to try the Marriott Hotel Flora. I promise it isunlike other Marriotts.I am not sure whether it is classified as a 4 star or a 5 star, but it a beautiful hotel. It is elegant without being old fashioned. I also dislike staying in old hotels. It is located right by the Villa Borghese, which is a very nice part of the city.

Friends stayed at the Eden Hotel in Rome recently, it is 5 star, close to the Spanish Steps, nice room with a large bathroom (including bath which is unusual in Italy). Dining room level which has a bar and terrace area as well has a wonderful view over Rome.<BR>Kay

Try the Ambasciatori Palace on the Via Veneto. It's upscale, 4-5 stars and close to the Borghese Gardens, a few blocks from the Spanish Steps and on one of the few tree lined boulevards in Rome. I have also been to the St. Regis Grand, which is very expensive and gorgeous, the Eden and Hotel de Russie are excellent suggestions as well. Avoid the Raphael, its nice but a little noisy.
