Rome can be a bit overwhelming — surely there are less exciting places in the world to wake up than in Rome’s Hotel Stendhal, just yards from the Trevi fountain, the Spanish Steps, and the high-end shopping district along the Via dei Condotti. This last, for the committed shopper, may just be enough to induce an attack of Stendhal Syndrome, the illness characterized by fainting or dizziness in the presence of overwhelming beauty.
If so, a place like the Stendhal may just be the thing to soothe those overexcited nerves. Where some Roman hotels lay it on thick, with a florid excess of old-world atmosphere, the Stendhal keeps it relatively simple, in a restrained and clean-lined early 20th-century style. Paneled walls and patterned wallpapers feel like something from a country mansion, or the cabin of a transatlantic steamer — albeit one with a city view.
Ultimately, though, the location is the key to the Stendhal’s appeal. The surrounding streets are teeming with restaurants and shops, and there are enough nearby museums and art galleries to induce another attack in the Stendhal-prone — not to mention the Villa Borghese, one of Rome’s largest and most scenic private parks, just 400 meters to the north.

What I liked:
The lobby was nice - small but stylish.
What the hotel could do better:
The hotel could do a lot better pretty much on all levels. This hotel really shouldn't be on Tablet. The rooms were closet size and the wardrobe in the room wouldn't even hold a carry on bag. It didn't have an alarm clock radio or other very basic amenities that are listed in the description. Cheap bathroom products and plastic cups wrapped in plastic in the bathroom - like a sad motel. Very tiny, dark and dank. The mattress was flimsy and uncomfortable. Old fashioned rude service from surly desk staff (apart from the manager). You have to drop your key off with them and when you come back and it's after 11pm the front door is locked and you have to ring and they're cranky when they hand your key back to you. One of the front desk staff tries to get you to eat at a huge tourist trap that he's obviously getting kick-backs from. I could go on...

What I liked:
Stylish yet unpretentious decor and ambiance. Excellent breakfast. Centrally located.
What the hotel could do better:
Front desk staff were bordering on surly and were certainly not helpful. The rest of the staff were friendly and attentive.

What I liked:
The location is convenient in central Rome.
What the hotel could do better:
My single room was the approximate size of a walk-in closet and the room was in continual gloom with shutters that couldn't be opened. The common space in the hotel was small and consisted of tables and chairs in a bar/ breakfast area: nowhere to relax and read trulycomfortably when seeking escape from the confines of the tiny room.
