Room was clean, comfortable and all we needed for our last night in Italy. Bathroom was tight between the toilet and sink but the shower was large with great pressure and lots of hot water. AC worked well, and bed was comfy. Easy walk to Termini. Staff were pleasant, welcoming and efficient. Breakfast was ok - wouldn’t pay an up charge but if included in the rate it is reasonable.

Was told by front desk breakfast was included then told by breakfast staff it was not and we had to pay 25 euro each. Was embarrassed so didn’t return for breakfast. Found out after four days we had already paid for it. We should have gone back to front desk ASAP. They offered an apology.

We stayed at The Major in Rome and really enjoyed our stay. The hotel felt fresh, modern, and spotlessly clean. It’s in a fantastic location - close to all the main sights, shops, and restaurants, which made exploring super easy. Our room faced the road, so there was a bit of noise at times, but nothing unexpected for such a central spot. Overall, a great base for a trip to Rome!
