Hotel Dei Mellini

Via Muzio Clementi 81, Rome, Latium, 00193, Italy, Rome, Italy

Why We Like It

The hotel is clean, comfortable and cozy, with a prime location for exploring Rome. The area is also great for shopping. We love the thoughtful details like the unique art collection, and a rooftop terrace for summer sunbathing. Beds and furniture are very comfortable, and overall rooms and bathrooms have more space than the typical Roman hotel at this price. An extra-friendly staff is an added bonus.

Fodor's Expert Review

On the west bank of the Tiber between the Spanish Steps and St. Peter's Basilica (a five-minute stroll from Piazza del Popolo), this modern luxury hotel is tucked away from the chaos of the centro storico but still close enough for convenient sightseeing. Housed in a 19th Century building, it also hosts a private art collection. Amenities include a bar, cafeteria, gym, and a panoramic rooftop garden with sunbeds. Limited free parking is also available nearby.

Tip This hotel also is a great option for accommodating children. There's even an indoor play area.
