Hotel Locanda Cairoli

“A real find, in the best area of Rome.”

We stayed at Locanda Cairoli, for 4 nights, right before Christmas. The Hotel is so easy to find, on a piazzeta, you can see, on the first floor, the "HOTEL", writen on the windows of the first Floor.

We stayed at Locanda Cairoli, for 4 nights, right before Christmas. The Hotel is so easy to find, on a piazzeta, you can see, on the first floor, the "HOTEL", writen on the windows of the first Floor. Very peaceful, I never heard voices, or noises, and never the noise of the Tram No 8. So, as I had seen in on other reviews, that other people had a terrible experience from the noise, I thought, that the tram was not running any more. I must say, we had a Standard Room, on the first floor, exactly opposite, to the fountain, on the piazza. I want to say, that given the fact, that the Hotel, is a small one, covering, two floors, the 1st and 2nd, of a public building, adds a feeling of bigger safety, as you have to ring the bell, to enter, and someone of the stuff on the Lobby, must open the entrance door, of the Hotel, on the 1st floor. Our room exceeded our expectation, it was very spacious, tastefully decorated, luminus, with a table, a big armchair, two chairs, I found the bed comfortable enough and big. The bathroom, had a bathtub, very charming, not very big, but everything was OK. Towels, three per person, of good quality, changed if you drop them down.Nothing missing. Breakfast, great to me, really great coffee, you have everything you need, cheese, ham, cakes, croissant very fresh, fruits, milk, cereals, boiled eggs, everything. I never could taste everything. Of cource, you cannot have an english breakfast, with fried eggs, bacon, fish, or something fancy you can find in a five star Hotel. The Lobby seemed, very sophisticated, warm, like the living room of a beautiful house. To tell the truth, we never used it, as we, always, were so tired, that we were going directly to our beautiful room. The personnel, always keen to help you, very polite, always with a smile.I cannot, not mention Tryphon, who went out of his way to satisfy any of our wishes. Bottom line, the best Hotel, I ever stayed in Rome, and this was my 7nth time in Rome, in this area, almost no need of public transport, in this price, the tram no 8 just outside, who drives you to Trastevere Train Station, in 15 minutes, and then the train to FCO, 27 min.. Total 45 min. from Hotel to the Airport, with only 9,50 euros p.p. No need to say, we will be back. We had a great stay.
