Navona Garden Suites

Good reviews on Trip Advisor and elsewhere (assuming this is the same as Navona Gallery Suites or Navona Suites).

Their site, navonagardensuites.com is pretty bare on practical info., like the size of the rooms, whether breakfast is included and various amenities.

Tried a 5-night search in April and it returns the Raffaello suite, which is described as being 50 meters away from their main building.

Has anyone stayed in their secondary building? Do they offer the same amenities?

Scrb, I have been asking about the Navona Gallery and Garden Suites here at Fodor's. There are a few informative comments here as well as many on Trip Advisor. Not sure if you are still considering the NGS, but check for availability again on their website - I noticed suites/rooms available for 5 nights in April other than the Rafaello. I'm not sure where you would be calling from, but they have a toll free number you can call to ask questions. They were very helpful answering questions when I called the other day.

Thanks but I've already booked another place, not as close to Navona but in between Navona and Campo de'Fiori.

Probably not as nice as NGS but the pricing was very nice.

Will report on it, because there's little reviews of it on Trip Advisor or Slowtrav.

Scrb, I was wondering where you stayed for your trip to Rome and what you thought about it. Hope you had a great trip!

I stayed at B&B Al Centro di Roma, which is right at Via Vittorio Emmanuelle and Corso del Rinascimento, a real central location.

Paid 80 Euro/night from 3/29 to 4/3.

It's not luxurious and they give you tickets for pastries and cappuccino at a nearby cafe. But it was roomy, great location, relatively inexpensive and had Wifi.

Then I went to the Amalfi Coast and Capri and on my last night before returning to the US, I stayed at the Albergo del Senato, which was nice.

Had to leave for an early flight and missed the nice breakfast which the Senato seemed to have.

Senato was about double per night than the B&B. Also great location, probably nicer breakfast but I don't know if it was worth 80 Euro a night more.

The B&B looked very good for 80 Euro per night and in a good location, too. A few years ago, when the Cesari suddenly closed for renovations and we had to get a new hotel ASAP, we stayed at the Hotel Della Torre Argentina near where you stayed and we thought it ws convenient to everything. Plus, we had the two rooms at the top with the large private terrace. Most reviews of the Albergo del Senato are very positive but I think it depends on the room you get.

We will also be spending some time in Sorrento. The Amalfi Coast and Capri are absolutely gorgeous!
