01 · In a sentence

Mecenate Palace Hotel in Roma, open JuneNovember.

Located on Via Carlo Alberto in Rome's San Lorenzo neighborhood, Mecenate Palace Hotel occupies a restored 19th-century palazzo steps from the Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore.

The hotel's neoclassical facade and period architecture frame views of historic Rome's rooflines and church domes.

Inside, soaring ceilings, marble columns, and original architectural details create an atmosphere of classical Italian grandeur suitable for formal ceremonies and receptions.

Everything was great. The location is just wonderful and close to many things. Interiors are great, beds comfortable and so is the food too. Couple of items may need upgrades (such as shower head) but overall very pleased. I would hate to miss offering a 10 star rating for the Terrace dining staff (Jasmina). There is star service and then there is Jasmina service, second to none. Very professional and personalized service with great attention to detail. BRAVO!!!
