This is THE place to stay in Rome. It's convenient to walk to most of the key attractions, plus the rooms are great and the service is perfect (Book a Richard Meier Room, they're very nice !) Having cocktails and dinner on the rooftop was also wonderful. We stayed on the Via Veneto the last time we were in Rome... More

Antique furnitire and a fantastic location did not compoensate for poor hotel services.In lieu of critique,herebelow is my letter to the General Manager of the hotel: Dear Mr.Vannoni, I stayed at room 108 of the Hotel Raphael with my wife 30/4-3/5/2013.

This hotel is not cheap, but we always return there when visiting Rome, due to the ideal location off the Piazza Navona, and the consistently high quality of the facilities and the welcome, including a free room upgrade on our most recent visit. You get what you pay for, and to us the Raphael is money well spent.

Stayed with a small group here late April for 4 nights. Lots of storage, wonderful bedding, conveniently arranged bath, very friendly staff, super fitness area. Good location for walking, shopping. . Don't miss nearby Giolettis Gelato

We stayed here in January after it was recommended and will not stay at another hotel in Italy. The room, the Tempur Pedic beds with romote control system, the location, the staff - all fabulous. It's only about 80 rooms so small enough for personal care.

My wife and I have travelled and stayed at many hotels in a variety of countries. Hotel Raphael was amazing. The location is brilliant. The rooms are impressive, the restaurant food delicious and most importantly the staff are friendly, helpful and simply incredible. A real joy! We will not consider another hotel when staying in Rome.

Our third visit to Hotel Raphael in April lived up to our expectations based on two previous visits. It is so picturesque with its own individual identity. The location, just off the beautiful Piaza Navona, works very well being within walking distance from all the main sightseeing attractions. Public areas in the hotel are limited in size but this just... More
