Fodor's Expert Review Maalot Roma
Via delle Murate 78, Rome, Latium, 00187, Italy
This boutique property inside the former residence of opera composer Gaetano Donizetto aims to be a restaurant with rooms above rather than a hotel with a restaurant below. In fact, you have to walk through the restaurant to check in at the reception desk. The design is inspired by English colonial clubhouses, with plush banquettes and gallery walls featuring Old Master–style paintings with a humorous twist. Rooms have plush beds with oversize headboards, bold colors, and luxe marble bathrooms.
PROS
- central location just steps from the Trevi Fountain
- great food at Don Pasquale restaurant
- chic design with original art
CONS
- no spa
- service can be a bit slow
- some rooms look directly onto the McDonald's across the street
