This is a review of Hotel City Palazzo Dei Cardinali near the Trevi Fountain in Rome, where a couple stayed with their children aged 11 and 5.
I don’t want to talk about the price. We went in the off-season, so it was a bit cheaper, and it gets very cheap in the peak season. There is a lot of variation depending on the time of year, so the price we went there doesn’t seem to be meaningful.
Breakfast was included and I stayed for 5 nights and 6 days from December 14th to 19th. The price was cheap because it was the off-season, and the room was on the 2nd floor, with the hotel occupying 3 floors in total. (The hotel lobby itself is located on the 3rd floor of the building. (So the building was tall) The triple room was larger than expected, with one large bed, one single bed, and one sofa bed.
I ate the same breakfast every day for 5 nights and I never got tired of it, and the simple but basic breakfast was delicious enough that even the kids enjoyed it.
The main reason I chose this hotel was because of the location.
I found this place while looking for a hotel in the center of a tourist area because my 5-year-old can’t walk for long.
There are a lot of pickpockets near Termini Station, and I thought it would be dangerous to travel with children, so I ruled out hotels near the station. I chose a hotel that was safe and close to tourist attractions even though it was a little more expensive, and this hotel had a great location. The staff were very friendly and the facilities were all newly renovated, so it was clean and like a new hotel.
A 5-minute walk to the Trevi Fountain, a 3-minute walk to the Plaza de España, a 15-minute walk to the Piazza Navona, a 10-minute walk to the Pantheon, a 15-minute walk to the Piazza Venezia, a 20-minute walk to the Colosseum, etc. All tourist attractions are within walking distance, so even a 5-year-old child can walk by bus or subway even once. I took a taxi twice just to get to the airport.
The location is good, the facilities are up-to-date, the staff is friendly, and the breakfast is great. This is a hotel I want to stay at again next time I go to Rome.
I liked that there was a department store right in front, and I also liked the view of the cathedral outside the window every day.
I came back from Rome yesterday and I already want to go again^^
The view from the room window~

Scenery 3 seen from the room window. Plaza de España can almost be seen. Very close.
Breakfast changes slightly every day, but is basically delicious.
I booked a triple room on Booking.com and got 1 double bed, 1 single bed, and 1 sofa bed (5-year-old children are free, 11-year-old children were included in the number of guests, so we were able to get a triple room).
Rose petals were sprinkled to commemorate the 11th anniversary.
