Fodor's Expert Review Rome Cavalieri, A Waldorf Astoria Hotel
Via Alberto Cadlolo 101, Rome, Latium, 00136, Italy
Set in a quiet residential neighborhood amid 15 acres of lush Mediterranean parkland, the Rome Cavalieri is a true hilltop oasis with magnificent views as well as three outdoor pools, one indoor pool, and a palatial spa. Rooms (ask for one facing the city) are spacious, with private balconies, striped damask, puffy armchairs, and no shortage of luxe amenities, including a pillow menu and luxurious bath products. The rooftop restaurant, La Pergola, is one of the best in the city.
PROS

- complimentary shuttle to city center
- impressive on-site restaurant
CONS
- you definitely pay for the luxury of staying here—everything is expensive
- outside the city center
