Breakfast was relatively simpel not too vast a selection.

Visited Rome with my mother and I for a few days. We appreciated the location of the hotel--a little off the beaten path, near the bridge towards Trastevere and within walking distance of Piazza Navona, Pantheon etc (about 10 mins) and cute shopping areas. The staff were generally very nice and welcoming, although a bit cold at first. The room was very clean and the housekeeping was very detailed. Our room was a good size esp for Rome--but an awkward configuration- the bed jammed into a corner and tough to get around the bed without having to climb over it ? I had to pick up my very heavy suitcase and slide it across the bed to get it to the other side. The a/c didn't seem to work (maybe it was me?) but air circulation wasn't great. The breakfast was good, very good options for sweet and savory and the staff were super! I liked the hotel, good sized rooms and nice staff but overall value at that price was a little lacking for me and not a lot of details.

Loved the location. Pretty close to everything but actually on a quiet street. Room was fine. We would have liked a larger one but none was available when we booked. Very clean. Staff very helpful. They have a lovely rooftop bar for breakfast but the breakfast got a little tiring. Also several from my family went up to the rooftop bar at night when it was supposed to be open but it wasn’t. So that entered into this review. All in all a very nice place to stay.

Great hotel and friendly and accommodating staff. Excellent location. Lovely rooftop bar/breakfast area. The breakfast buffet was good but not outstanding. My biggest issue is that because there is older stone flooring, no carpets and rooms are all in close proximity around the elevator, it is very noisy both until late at night and beginning again early in the morning. Overall, we had an excellent stay at the Hotel Monte acenci.

Friendly staff. I was also impressed by how hard working the staff are. The hotel felt like being at home to me. We spent a week staying here. Now there isn't much to do within a few blocks of this hotel but it is very easy to walk all over the tourist areas of Rome from here (or to mix using a taxi and walking). Avoid going to any restaurants that have pictures of the food on signs outside. They are selling low quality 'tourist' food & you will be disappointed!

The staff were great - all of them. Our rooms a/c went out and they fixed the problem promptly. This is a sweet boutique hotel next to the tiger river and restaurants, bars and shopping near the Jewish Ghetto. Very easy to get around and see the sites. We would staff again.

There is one BIG problem with this hotel, which is otherwise clean and well-run: You could be assigned a room below street level which means you have to leave the small window closed and feel like you’re staying in a dark windowless room.
When I asked for a different room I was told there weren’t any, even it showed availability online.
What’s deceptive is that since the hotel is on a slope, you can take the elevator up one level and still be below the street above.
I had prepaid the room and didn’t have any option but to stay so avoided going back to the room as much as possible.

The stay was not great. We were upgraded upon arrival to a room that had a bathtub. Later in the evening when we went to use the tub there was no hot water. They sent someone up that attempted to tell us that the water wasn’t hot but it wasn’t cold. I guess that was an attempt at doing there best. Needless to say, the second night was only worse. Additionally, the shower was located in a space with no ventilation so steam collected on the ceiling. Whe. You look up there a brown color all over the ceiling. I don’t wanna assume what it was but it certainly needed to be fixed. Also, the light switch for the toilet room did not work and we were using the bathroom in the dark. Also, the diverter on the tub faucet was missing the knob so the shower handle could not be used. When I addressed this with the front desk, he apologized and did nothing to accommodate our stay. I would not stay here again….

Good location. Nice property - rooms were larger than expected. The breakfast on the terrace is not to be missed! But the very best part of the hotel was the staff - in particular Cecilia who greeted us on arrival and was a daily resource for our stay at the Monte Cenci. I would highly recommend this hotel and plan to use it again on our next trip to Rome.

Hotel Monte Cenci is a wonderful boutique hotel. We found it conveniently situated and easy to get to all the landmarks without being in the middle of everything and the crowds. What we especially liked was that one of Rome's many free water stations is located just outside the front door. The service at the desk was friendly for us first timers asking silly questions, the staff preparing the wonderful breakfasts were so accommodating and the rooftop area was a wonderful spot to wind down after our overfull days of sightseeing. We would recommend this hotel and stay there again.
