Wanting to experience the historical side of Rome, this hotel didn’t disappoint. Built in the 16th century, the room was decorated to that era, with remodeled bathrooms. The manager was very professional and worried on all aspects of our stay.

Italian Holiday

Like staying in a museum! Bear in mind the palace building is close to 300 years old and not perfect in fit and finish but that does not take away from the grandness and opulence of the palace. Impressive to say the least. My suggestion is however - buy some better quality toilet paper. Other amenities were high quality though - nice linens, pillows, etc.

The hotel/apartment was very beautiful, very large spacious rooms. The bathroom shower was on the small side for a normal size adult. There is no air conditioning in the bathroom and in the hallway preceding the apartment which was a bummer since we were in a heatwave during July. But the room's AC worked fabulously, so we slept very well. On the service front, it was a little lacking. Not a full service hotel by any means, run by a couple folks and we didn't get asked if we wanted breakfast (extra charge) or anything. There were really no amenities on top of the room itself. The location is great, right in the heart of Rome's shopping district and a short walk to Trevi Fountain and many other sites. You walk outside and Fendi is right in front of you. If you are looking for large rooms, without the extra frills of a hotel experience this is the place.

Great location

This is an incredible location, a short walk to the Spanish Steps, Trevi Fountain, Borghese Gardens, great food and shopping, beautiful area. The staff is responsive when messaged, but they really stay out of the way otherwise. If you’re looking for a traditional hotel with amenities, this is not it. But very comfortable and beautiful

Wonderful, but warm

Stayed in Queen Hortense suite. Was clean, grand and old as others have detailed well, with updated bathroom. Staff helpful with very kind demeanor. I can't give 10/10 due to inadequate A/C. There is a wall unit in the back room that works great for in there but does little for the large, main room. Laying there in bed on top of the covers sweating thinking how much was spent per night rapidly diminishes this suite's charm. Inexcusable really for the cost. I understand it's old (part of why it was selected) and maybe only so much can be done, but a floor unit, or even a fan to circulate the dead air would be helpful. Otherwise, a lovely property.

Historic Adventure Awaits...stay here!

We just returned from a European family trip with our two teenagers. Our last stop/stay was Residenza Ruspoli Bonaparte and it was simply a historic pleasure! We arrived outside of the check-in window and attempted to alert the property via email/messages prior to our arrival but somehow those didn't work. After a quick phone call, we were connected with the property's reception and able to get checked in. We stayed in the Princess Pia Suite. Our teens slept in a daybed with a pull out trundle while we slept in a king. Air conditioning worked very well, property was very quiet, plenty of towels, mini fridge, Nespresso coffee, bathroom supplies, storage for bags and beautiful views of a courtyard below. Nearby church bells rang on Sunday every hour and the location is right near Spanish Steps, Metro stops, wonderful dining and upscale shopping. Walking along the timeless halls, courtyard and stairs made us feel like we were somehow transported. We enjoyed our unique ride in the petite and reliable elevator lift and our hidden suite door was like a secret passageway! It was surreal and special. So was our meeting of Princess Maria Pia who showed us some of the additional palace rooms and shared the history of the building and it's former inhabitants. We'd definitely stay here again and highly recommend it. Our family was game for an adventurous lodging and it was unique and special.

Nice stay in the eternal city

Room as expected is huge, clean and comfortable. Grandiose as a Roman palazzo should be. There was a glitch during check in but the Princess came personally to apologize and offered us her chauffeur to go to the opera. It would be nice if they have room service or restaurant for that matter. Otherwise we had a nice stay.

Rodel was so accommodating and he had the best spirit. You can tell he enjoys his jobs and that made my stay that much better. The room was beautiful it was exactly what I needed for my birthday. Walking distance to the Spanish steps and all the shopping. The WiFi was great being from the states that was important and the cleanliness was up to par. I would visit again.

Dissatisfied with hotel.com

We had an issue with hotel.com and no satisfactory way to resolve the issue with hotel.com Originally I had reserved 7 nights for 3000E That was satisfactory 10/20-10/27. Then I wished to reserve the room for the night before 10/19 so when I arrive the following day on 10/20- I would be able go to sleep. I shortened the trip the two nights - cancelled 10/25 and 10/26 so total nights was 6 instead of 7 nights.! Because of availability - hotel.com - changed the suites and offered us another suite for the more money 3000E for one less day. We gave up the room for 7 days- and took the other for 6 nights. I was ok with that. But at the end of the trip- the owner showed me a confirmation for 1000E more - over 4000E for 6 nights- instead of 3000E. I expect hotel.com to straighten this out. I felt equally sorry for the owner who said that hotel.com will bill her as though I paid the 4000E which I refused to do.

Quirky, Strange, Offbeat - and WONDERFUL.

Oh wow, this place. It is strange. Really strange. WONDERFULLY strange. If you don't see a sign for the hotel - you're in the right place. It took some time of wandering around this palace to find the entrance to the hotel section. But the folks who run it could not have been more pleasant and accommodating. Our suite was huge - a drawing room (who has a drawing room anymore?), a bedroom, a library, a beautiful bathroom and a "garden" - a patio. 15-20 foot painted ceilings, still had the feel of the history of the place. The statuary in the hallways was weird, but it was just part of what made this stay special. And then the butler came and cleaned our room - good lord, is there any way we can get him to come to the States and clean our house? All we can say is - stay here. If you have a sense of adventure and a sense of humor - stay here. And BTW - the location was terrific - you can see the Spanish steps at the end of the street, it was a 25 min walk to the Colosseum, the Pantheon and Trevi Fountain are nearby ( we didn't go to either of those - but we could have easily done so). Just stay here.

Your search is over! This is the place to be!

This is an amazing place! We had zero complaints. The rooms are amazing and very comfortable. The owners/staff are wonderfully friendly and helpful. The rooms were always extremely clean. The amenities were all working and the bathroom well cleaned and stocked. Plenty of room to make yourself at home and lots of closet space. The chairs/sofa/bed are very comfortable for relaxing. The large windows supply great light but shutters can be closed for darkness. Very quite from street or other room noise. Walk to all of the sites. Wonderful nightly street performers in the plaza outside. Very safe area. Near upscale shopping and many restaurants. Not your normal hotel trying to be something it's not. This is a real palace. From the time you enter the gate off the street, walk the large marble staircase (or take the elevator), walk the museum quality halls, or enter your magnificent room, you feel like royalty. Well worth the money and the highlight of our Rome getaway! Why would you stay anywhere else?

Great location. We stayed in the Queen Hortense suite which has an amazing palatial bedroom and is quiet (no noise from the Rome streets). In need of some refurb though (eg modern bathroom electric shaver / hair dryer point was hanging off the wall by its wires). The concierge promised much but delivered little - our promised breakfast vouchers for a nearby cafe never materialised after the first day. But overall, this is a wonderful room to stay in in a great location.

Was in Rome a couple of days ago on a one week vacation and stayed at Residenza Ruspoli At first glance I was not too thrilled with the place I felt it needed refurbishment and I didn’t like the fact that you had to pass through the second bedroom to get to the bathroom, but as the days went by I started to fall in love with place . So much history so much character and the hosts were amazing . The location of the place is the best smack in the middle of everything . Enjoyed my stay and hope to revisit soon

Charming and Well Located

Residenza Ruspoli is charming and very well located for a Rome city getaway. The standard of the rooms is not high so the Residenza can't be recommended if guests want to spend a lot of time indoor as the rooms are dark and the furniture is not very comfortable. The people involved are wonderful and that made it up for the room not be super and that the cleaner forgot to clean our room one of the days,

What a wonderful stay we had in this palatial residence that the beautiful Princess Pia Ruspoli and her family still reside in a separate section of this ginormous mansion. The decor and spaciousness of our room was truly befitting for royalty. Location, location, location, a mere stone’s throw from Fendi and all the high end stores. You are within minutes of the finest dining, cafes and restaurants. Last, but not least, Ricardo the Property Manager was so gracious, helpful, friendly and even offered us a quick tour of the palace. Thank you for such a memorable Christmas, 2021🎄❣️🎄❣️
