Michelin Guide
"Frescoes, fine fabrics and Empire-style antique pieces adorn the luxurious guestrooms and lavish lounges of this hotel, which has retained the splendid atmosphere of its early years."
Frommer's
"This restored landmark is more plush and upscale than any hotel in the area -- not even the comparable Excelsior or the Eden across town can match its sheer opulence." Full review
Insight Guides
"Between Termini station and the Via Veneto area, this dignified hotel occupies a patrician palace, with oriental rugs, chandeliers and antiques."
Travel + Leisure
"A stone’s throw from both the Quirinal Hill and the Baths of Caracalla, the St. Regis Grand is a respite from the centro storico fray." Full review

Time Out

Star Service
"This bonafide deluxe operation may lose points for its less than romantic location, but you can walk to many sights in less than 30 minutes: Trevi Fountain, the Colosseum and even the Spanish Steps." Full review

Fodor's
"Opened in the spring of 2015, Rome’s new cool cat is strategically located around the corner from the lively Piazza Navona, inside a 17th-century palazzo." Full review

The Telegraph
8.0
"Describing its ethos as ‘rough-luxe’, the 10-room boutique hotel places original, vintage pieces by leading Italian designers in a stripped-back historic building, leavening the mix with rich fabrics, playful contemporary art interventions and a ground-floor bar and breakfast room that feels like a shabby-chic bistro." Full review
Departures
"Each unit is one of a kind: patina walls come illuminated by 1950s light fixtures, Baroque style ceilings sit above items like a Gio Ponti bar trolley." Full review
Mr & Mrs Smith
"G Rough, a 10-suite boutique stay in central Rome, wraps five-star service and retro Roman glamour in shabby-chic garb." Full review

Upscale
"Just a block away from Piazza Navona in the historic center of Rome, G-Rough is a glamorous, four-pearl option with an ideal location for sightseers." Full review
Michelin Guide
"This is Roman luxury the way it usually only exists in fantasies: perfectly tailored from materials of the highest quality, and then lovingly scuffed and worn to show it’s built to last." Full review
