Hotel Dei Borgognoni

Via del Bufalo 126, Rome, Latium, 00187, Italy, Rome, Italy

Why We Like It

Rooms are modern and clean with plush beds that provide a great night's sleep. Marble-decked hallways and oil paintings throughout give it a luxe feel. It's central to everything in Rome, but also in a quiet side-street location. Staff is extremely friendly and helpful around the clock. While you can easily find a more economical room in room, the private balconies, fulfilling breakfast and cozy fireplace are just a few more details that make this hotel standout.

Fodor's Expert Review

Travelers who love peace and tranquillity appreciate the position of this quietly chic hotel set in a prestigious palazzo from the 1800s. The old palazzo has been remodeled to provide spacious lounges and a glassed-in garden courtyard; a small private art collection is also on view. Guest rooms, cleverly furnished with sharp cream and red tones, have been designed to create the illusion of space. Some rooms have balconies or terraces on the interior courtyard, and the hotel offers free bicycles for guests to tool around the city. After a long day of shopping in the area, cozy up to the fireplace in the hotel's lobby.
