43 Best Hotels in Rome
"It’s always refreshing to find smart, affordable hotels in Rome. The city's new citizenM strikes the balance with pleasingly styled rooms (clean lines, modern furniture) and while they’re not huge, the designers have made the most of the space, with King-sized beds fitted wall to wall, big HD TVs beside expansive windows, and rain showers in the bathrooms. The lobby’s got a colorful art collection, and the canteenM bar is open 24/7. The 162 rooms are smartly furnished with all the essentials and a bit more—we’d call it minimalist-attractive. Rooms are cosy and compact, and the designers have made best use of the space; beds, for example, are enormous with comfortable mattresses and super soft linens. Floor space is sacrificed, but the widescreen TV and super-fast Wi-Fi more than make up for it. Bathrooms feature powerful rain showers. Everything in the rooms, from the blinds to the lights to the air-conditioning temperature, can be controlled via in-room iPads or the citizenM App." - Maresa Manara
