Hotel Lord Byron - Small Luxury Hotels of the World

Just wow

Hotel refused to waive off penalty charges (inspite of genuine reasons) and their customer service behavior was simply condescending and unacceptable. Snooty hotel. Strong recommend avoiding. Poor value for money and inability to serve premium customers with care and attention

I have stayed here many times for many years but never wrote a review. This is a genuine luxury hotel with wonderful staff and fantastic public rooms with works of art and antiques. There is a very good hig-quality restaurant in the hotel. The area is peacful in an upmarket neighbourhood. I cannot stay anywhere else in Rome. The bedrooms and bathrooms deserve a special mention: they are super-luxurious and worth every penny.

Lovely quiet boutique hotel in a calm upscale neighborhood. We had a two night stay and enjoyed our room, a substantial buffet breakfast, and an attentive helpful staff. While not in the heart of Rome, we were able to appreciate this neighborhood particularly after touring the tourist hotspots. It was a welcome refuge especially during the Ryder Cup.

Really enjoyed our four night stay at the Lord Byron. The staff were incredibly helpful in getting us checked in at a ridiculous hour (1.30 am!) and in helping us to get convenient local parking. the lobby is beautiful with old family memorabilia and great art deco statues and artwork. you can order drinks there and have a nice time relaxing and enjoying the ambience. also, the bar downstairs which is open in the evening is quite a hall of mirrors and marble. the breakfasts were good with the usual mix of cured meats, pastries, breads, fruit, and eggs. you could also order something a la carte if you wanted. our room was a panorama suite on the (almost) top floor and it had two good sized rooms, and truly blackout curtains in the bedroom! it was also good for entertaining our traveling friends who were with us for four nights in the same hotel. the hotel itself is outside of central rome and the borghese gardens, so it might be a bit of a trek for some people who don't like to walk. it only took us 15 minutes to get to central rome though and we like walking. we would definitely stay here again. only negative which is minor is that some parts of furniture and trim could probably use a little refurbishing. however, overall size of rooms, relative value for (almost) central rome, and helpfulness of staff make up for any minor blemishes.
