Hotel Splendide Royal - The Leading Hotels of the World

Nothing was more special than a cheaper hotel.

They did not put the smiles on until they knew I was checking in. Before that their faces said that I didn't belong there. They throw on a tax and try to add a cleaning staff tip when checking out but my room was $--- for 1 night. I shouldn't have to tip.

Elegant, gorgeous accommodations, outstanding staff, lovely breakfast buffet and restaurant. Upgraded to a suite for our 3-night stay! Fabulous marble bathm walk-in shower, extra large king bed, sofa and two luxurious chairs, paintings... Great location.

Our room was spacious and comfortable.

The lobby spaces were fine, but not warm and inviting.

The decor, the location, the views.

Last time I stayed, breakfast was in the Mirabelle space. So beautiful and felt special. The new breakfast location doesn't compare.

The hotel, rooms and service were a 10. This is one of the few European hotels that represent a 5 star rating. As a bonus the rooftop bar/resturant was a great location for a sunset experience overlooking Rome.

Staff cordiality

Resturant prices

breakfast menu + amazing location

This may sound as details but not for a 5 star hotel when cleaning the room add new bottle of water for both guestswhen the soap dispenser is disassembled it means it does not work properly, change it when at the front desk to check restaurant don t tell me i shouldn t need to book, make the reservation on the spot , actually we went there and it was full

Staff very kind. Hotel amazing (3rd time there, 1st through booking). Facilities and rooms great! Amenities INSIDE rooms (we booked 2) awesome

Mirabele restaurant is beautiful and nice great waiters. BUT, food was VERY ok/ overpriced. AND it was was my wife s 50s birthday so, considering that we were already staying at the hotel, she was expecting a great dessert / celebration for that (we have advised that). But the experience overall at the hotel was great (10) but at restaurant was 7. Good restaurante, beautiful view, but good room to improve that! Thanks again for the staff regards

The hotel staff are excellent and very attentive. They’re all friendly and cheerful. We were especially satisfied with the room cleaning.

The room’s Wi-Fi connection is very weak, or sometimes doesn’t work at all — I found that quite surprising.

Good location, very clean, beautifully crafted design.Staff was very nice and helpful.

1. Food quality was quite poor for the price, restaurant and room service. Ordered a 40 euros cheese platter that looked like random pieces thrown on a plate. 2. Music in restaurant and rooftop bar was very old fashion and a bit on the mood killer side

The hotel and staff are amazing, the view from the room is stunning.A beautiful hotel in a great location the Big Bus is a 2 minute walk and will take you to all the sites of Rome.

I cant think of anything I didnt like

The Hotel is beautiful, and the rooms are spacious, albeit our bedroom was modernly furnished with only the oversized king bed and two large comfy chairs. Pillows and bedding comfy. the Lighting was good, location of charging outlets was perfect .Bathroom lovely, was exceptionally easy, great. modern , large rain shower, marble sinks with excellent toiletries. Robes were nice, turndown service excellent, Entry has lots of old world charm in the decor. Breakfast on the rooftop was abundant and delicious. Formal restaurant at rooftop had fabulous views, Outdoor terrace not available when we were there. Dinner menu was limited but creative, very good, nice romantic place to dine, pricey, but service was superb. Wine list exceptional.

The hotel is really a bit out of the way, and getting taxis was problematic, sometimes waiting about 15 minutes even for an Uber. but the staff and doorman really tried The well placed syktop bar, with stunning views, does not open for an afternoon cocktail until 5 pm, nowhere else to get a cocktail other than upstairs formal restaurant, which was peculiar location at 4:30 pm.. empty of everyone.

The Hotel Splendid never disappoints. The efforts they made for our 4 month old baby were exceptional. He even got his own beautifully folded towels and some cute little toys. The beds are magnificent and the rooms beautiful. We loved the breakfasts with Gina and Maura and the fabulous Brunch and bar with Gianmarco and his team. The front desk and doormen are always so attentive and helpful. Excellent service always. The hotel is across from the Villa Borghese Gardens and so is in a wonderful area, close to green spaces and the very convenient 100 bus.

I don't like the additional discretionary service charge that is now applied upon check out. ( It has only just been in place for a year) We have always tipped in the past on our own and I prefer that. Of course the staff are worthy of a tip, but, as the property is on the higher scale, the discretionary tip, worked out according to the value of your stay, can add many $$$ to your bill if you are not prepared for it.I also always hope that the staff who deserve it, are the ones who receive the tip, and this is another reason I don't like the service charge.

Loved the location. The rooms were lovely, breakfast was beautifully presented and delicious. The staff were so helpful and kind.

The property is absolutely gorgeous, clean and beautifully decorated. The house keeping staff keep the rooms maintained exceptionally. It really is an oasis for us in Rome. The breakfast with Gina is so wonderful .

I love the property . We have been used to giving tips as we go along . Now there is a discretionary tip applied to the parting bill and I feel this is an additional expense to accommodation that is already of a higher cost. Of course the staff are worth it … I just like paying for things included .

We have been visiting /staying at this venue most years over the last 16. The location is very pleasant, being central whilst quiet. We received an upgrade from a Superior room on check in.

Oh dear. How desperately sad. We have held this hotel and particularly Mirabelle restaurant in great esteem, hence our many visits. This time, our impression was of tired decor not particularly clean and a soul less room.The Mirabelle food was average and so dissapointing for a restaurant whos' cuisine we have consistantly receommended and returned to over many years.Canapes were no longer offered, my foie gras dish overcomplicated, as was my husband's tartare. Lobster for which there was a 30 Euro supplement was just boring, the beef ok. Dinner was over 500 Euro for two courses plus a shared cheese plate, a glass of Sauternes, one glass of vintage champagne and one glass of Brunello.The room bill of over 1,000 Euro for two nights......In short, the Splendide is in desperate need of a refurbishment, particularly the rooms and corridors and the Mirabelle needs a shot in the arm. The price for both is just not providing cost to benefit any longer and, if it wishes to remain competitive in a fierce market and on both counts, a serious re think is required.We shall be staying elsewhere in future, with great sadness.

I had the pleasure of spending two unforgettable nights at Hotel Splendide Royal, and I can honestly say it was one of the most memorable hotel experiences I’ve ever had. From the moment I stepped into the lobby, I felt as if I had been transported into a world of timeless elegance and intimacy.The room was beautifully designed—spacious, refined, and filled with small details that made it feel personal rather than just luxurious. Waking up to the soft light coming through the windows and the view of Rome’s greenery was something truly special.What really stood out, however, was the atmosphere of the hotel itself. It’s not just a place to stay—it feels like being welcomed into a historic Roman residence where every corner tells a story. The staff carried themselves with a perfect balance of professionalism and warmth, making me feel genuinely cared for during my entire stay.Breakfast on the terrace was an experience of its own: sitting above the rooftops of Rome, sipping coffee, and watching the city slowly come alive beneath the morning sun. It was magical in every sense of the word.Two nights here felt both too short and perfectly complete—a retreat full of beauty, calm, and a touch of romance. Hotel Splendide Royal didn’t just host me; it gave me memories I will carry with me for a very long time.

The location of the hotel was good, walking distance to the Trevi fountain, the Spanish steps and a number of restaurants. The staff were friendly and helpful.The room was comfortable and clean.The room had the European 2 pin socket as well as a 3 pin square socket.

The breakfast could have had more options.

Large room, large bathroom with bath

Breakfast was a bit disappointing, slightly old fashioned offering. Pillows were a bit hard.

Lovely rooftop cocktail bar.Beautiful views from Mirabelle restaurant and fabulous meal.

The rooms are slightly dated.There is no mirror, except in the bathroom.Nowhere other than the bathroom to do makeup and get dressed.No full length mirror.No iron or ironing board available.Breakfast was very limited.No indoor bar to sit at in the evening.
