I would never stay here agian. There is a party bar (MASA) on the top floor of this hotel and the drunken patrons like to holler and shout in the hallways of the hotel at 1am (seems to be the Italian thing to do). The room cleaning staff left all of the dirty dishes in our room, the towels were dirty, the bed was like a sheet of plywood…there are to many reasons to list here. We booked the Major Hotel transfer from the cruise terminal in Civitavecchia to Rome (this is about 1 hour drive). The driver did not show up at the Norwegian Terminal to pick us up as per the contract. After several phone calls, text messages and his failure to show up, we were forced to take our luggage over to a shuttle bus and ride that out to Piazzale Largo Della Pace and find our driver. There is a small toll fee to enter this area of the port, but the driver refused to pay this, all the other drivers, buses and taxis were inside the port right beside the Norwegian Terminal doors, dock side. This delayed our arrival in Rome for scheduled event at 12 noon. I would never stay here again.

Monti was a new area for us to explore in Rome, which was a welcome change and it is a nice area with many dining options including local restaurants that don't cater as much to tourists so you are getting a local eating experience. While it is a 10 minute walk to the train station, its not that close that you should be concerned about noise or safety (Rome is pretty safe all over). There was a little noise in the early AM (6:30-7:30am) on one of our days that sounded like garbage cans being moved around, but it was unclear whether that came from the hotel or an adjacent building. It is a big city after all and noise is inevitable.

This property was absolutely wonderful. Our room was very spacious, uniquely laid out, comfortable with a modern, stylish bathroom. Staff was nice, courteous and helpful with our dinner reservation. Rooftop bar was fabulous with great views and fine cocktails. Location was good, close to major attractions. We truly enjoyed our stay in this hotel and will recommend it to anyone visiting Rome

The hotel is nice and staff very attentive through WhatsApp even before and after our stay. The rooftop that they advertise is very small not lounge chairs only tables that you as guest can not use unless you have a reservation as everyone else. We we’re excited to have a rooftop but at the end couldn’t enjoy as guests only in the morning for breakfast which was average as well, not the kind you expect for what you’re paying. Rooms are quite small. The location is ok but not as convenient is quite far for the nice areas like Spanish steps and peatonal areas with shopping you have to walk there at least 30 minutes one way… we really thought it was more central the location at least for what almost many tourists want in Rome.

The classic room advertises a king size bed on Expedia but it is not a king size bed. Hotel is apparently aware of the issue but doesn’t notify you of the discrepancy until check in.

Hot water didn't kick in until the morning (we ended up taking a cold bath) but the upgraded room was very spacious and lovely, with a great view of the Basilica. Staff were friendly. Breakfast left something to be desired (no fresh fruit, offering was decent but not spectacular).
