Great location, wonderful hotel staff and concierge! Beautiful hotel with rooms available to overlook the square. Lovely views of the city and fantastic hotel staff that were able to deal with multiple flight and room updates. Enjoyed the experience tremendously. Would go back any time to visit this gorgeous hotel. They were able to book transfers to and from the ship, which was fantastic. Happy to have stayed here.

“Great Hotel, Super Nice Staff, Excellent Location”

Wonderful hotel. Like many, we stayed here before a cruise and were not disappointed. The hotel is really well placed located near the Spanish Steps/Trevi Fountain, Pantheon and only a 25ish minute walk to the Colosseum plus there is ample shopping in the area. The staff are super polite and friendly. We arrived a little early and our room was ready for us. The room was nice and overlooked the fountain outside the hotel on the street. We were starving and the concierge suggested a restaurant off the beaten path for us that made fresh pasta and only used fresh ingredients and it was marvellous. The restaurant in the hotel that served breakfast was unaware that I had an allergy to nuts and so the 1st day they didn't have much for me and I was slightly annoyed (but am used to this) and mentioned it to the front desk. They promptly called the restaurant and advised them we would be there for 2 more days and the following 2 days they made an entire separate plate for me with fruits and pastries all nut free which was really nice of them (and heavenly delicious). It's known that hotels in Europe have smaller rooms and this was no exception but the room was clean and the bathroom was spacious. We did have to change rooms because the 1st room's AC wasn't cooling the room properly and the 2nd room was even nicer than the 1st. In fairness though, Italy was experiencing an extreme heatwave and everywhere we went was hot. If I had one sort of "concern" for future guests it's that if you are a light sleeper, ask to not be placed in any of the rooms near the elevators because the walls are marble and sound carries into the rooms and when guests get off the elevator late at night, it's loud. This is not the hotel's fault but rather rude guests that are inconsiderate of other people. Overall we were very happy at the Sina and would return. It's a great hotel whether you're there as a couple or as a family.

We stayed here for three nights prior to going on a cruise. First of all the staff was fantastic, always willing to go the extra mile. We arrived pretty early on our flight and they did everything possible to expedite getting a room prior to normal check in. Rooms were some smallish and aged as you would expect in an older hotel. Rooms with connecting doors seemed to get a lot of noise from other room. Big issue that I have seen in most older hotels, the lack of electrical outlets and they had USB ports for plug in rather than outlets next to the bed. I don’t like those, to many stories of virus issues. You might want to bring a plug in adapter with multiple ports to extend. All 220 of course so you will need a plug adapter. They have a room top restaurant we were not able to try. Restaurants in the immediate area are pretty limited. Location is pretty central to the city sites but even the Triva (sp?) fountain and Spanish steps are maybe 10 minute walk which is tough in the summer unless you are young. Taxi are interesting in Rome. At the hotel they play by the rules, run the meter. Anyplace else they may play by the rules or they may quote you a much higher take it our leave price at least twice the meter rate. Uber is really expensive here, at least two to three times the taxi rate. Metro stop next to hotel but if your mobility challenged, I did see an escalator or elevators. Hotel is pretty pricey in my view but that may just be Rome prices in the summer.

“Good stay with poor restaurant”

We stayed at the Bernini for a pre-cruise stay. Our room was not ready as we arrived early in the morning. This is to be expected when arriving so early or with a large group.

We stayed at the Bernini for a pre-cruise stay. Our room was not ready as we arrived early in the morning. This is to be expected when arriving so early or with a large group. Patience is required when traveling. The staff was friendly, warm and welcoming. The location of the hotel was wonderful. Bellman and concierge were always helpful and pleasant. Our room was clean and well apportioned. The only downfall of our stay was the rooftop restaurant. We went for dinner and apparently our apparel was not good enough for them. They seated us at the very front of the restaurant, took our order, offered wine and brought our dinner. We never saw a staff member again. It was obvious we were not wanted there. Drink from the bar even came with pieces of something in it. We picked over our dinner quickly and walked out. Totally unacceptable. The last straw was when they seated a couple beside us that brought their dog. This was clearly not a service dog. We weren’t wanted there but a dog was.
