Hotel White

Highly recommended – excellent location, beautiful design, good breakfast, great air conditioning, and very good value for money. The location of the hotel is perfect – almost right next to the Fontana di Trevi and just a few minutes walk from most of Rome’s major historic sites, surrounded by dozens of restaurants, bars and entertainment spots. The hotel itself is not very large (3 floors, a few dozen rooms), and the design of the room I received (on the 3rd floor) was, in my eyes, beautiful – the walls were tastefully decorated, the wardrobes had wood paneling, and the very high ceilings featured impressive wooden beams. The bed was large and comfortable, and overall the room felt very inviting. The level of maintenance was excellent – both the room itself and the bathroom were very clean, and it was clear the hotel had undergone a major renovation in recent years. I especially enjoyed the air conditioning, which was powerful and immediately noticeable as soon as you stepped in from the street. Breakfast was also very good, especially the fresh pastries, and the staff were extremely kind and attentive. For some weird reason the breakfast room didn't have air conditioning so it was a bit warm while eating. The only thing I found odd in the room was the bathtub design – it was very narrow and deeply curved, making it extremely uncomfortable to stand in, to the point that it hurt my feet (I attached a photo to illustrate the issue). It was so strange that I thought it might deter me from returning to the hotel, but thankfully it seems this is not the case in other rooms. In addition, when I leaned on the glass window in the bathroom, I discovered that it was not fixed but could be opened, and I almost fell – I think this deserves a clear safety warning to prevent accidents. Without a doubt, I will return (but next time I’ll ask for a room with a shower instead!).
