Hotel Information
The excellent Empire Palace offers not only a superior location, but also a unique ambience and charm...

This privately owned Empire Palace Hotel attracts a mixture of business and leisure guests looking for a quiet oasis in downtown Rome's shopping and business district. The converted 1870 townhouse, built by Venetian nobles, surrounds a central courtyard and fountain. In the lounge, soft-brown Moroccan leather chairs and African wooden ornaments rest on the original, delicate marble floors beneath vaulted ceilings.

During the balmy Summer evenings, guests are sure to be drawn to the peaceful, indoor courtyard which is the ideal venue for a memorable, culinary experience complemented by fine wines and aperitifs.

Offering a combination of warm, contemporary styles in the public areas, and classical furnishings in the guestrooms, the Empire Palace creates a truly relaxing, and luxurious, atmosphere from which guests can easily explore the beautiful Eternal City of Rome.

"Clean, comfortable, friendly, safe, central"
After reading hundreds of reviews for hotels in Rome on TripAdvisor, finally settled on the Empire Palace. Empire Palace is a great mix of quality and value in a city that can be quite pricey for a nice room in the city. Most of the reviews I read were very accurate. Yes, the rooms are fairly small. Yes, the shower is small. Yes, eating dinner at the hotel is not cheap BUT it was EXCELLENT! Overall, Empire Palace was in a great location. The area around the hotel was quite quiet and in a good section of the town, near the American Embassy. I was actually surprised that the area around the hotel was as clean as it was, given it's proximity to Termini Station. At no time did we ever feel unsafe and we routinely walked back from Trevi Fountain after 10 or 11 PM. The subway (Line A) is only about a 5-10 minute walk, depending on your pace. The included breakfast was of good quality and variety, but not fantastic, as I have read in some of the other reviews. (Don't get me wrong though, nothing wrong with it and it was good.) The biggest sleeper in the hotel was the Aureliana Restaurant. We ate 3 dinners at the hotel and ALL of them were PERFECT. Superior Risotto, fillet mignon, and lamb. The wines are not overpriced and are of good variety. The staff was SUPERB! There is quite a difference in service and attentiveness between the morning and evening staff. Of particular note, Skandar from Albania (staff calls him Alex) was one of the best servers I have ever encountered in the restaurant industry. The sheets are a bit rough, but it is because they starch/press the sheets. A variety of pillow types were available and all requests were met with prompt attention. Overall, the Empire Palace was a great choice. No regrets and would definitely stay there again, while still comparing to other higher class hotels to compare prices.

"We all thought this was a very nice hotel"
Our family of 5 adults stayed in 3 rooms: 2 king and 1 single room. Yes, the rooms are small but we were there to see the sights not hang out in the room. We enjoyed the decor of the hotel, the breakfast buffet was lovely, the staff was businesslike (not overly friendly or accomodating, but simply straightforward in their approach) and helpful in getting us cabs and giving directions, and internet access was easy. They surprised me with a lovely cake for my birthday in my room which a handwritten note; the concierge must have arranged for this simply because we had asked where we might go for dinner to celebrate my birthday...I was impressed by this gesture and felt it was an extra-special touch. I would definitely recommend this hotel. I had read reviews online before we went and felt there were some mixed reviews that this hotel doesn't really deserve. It was perfectly nice, updated, and in addition to its restaurant, we had a great meal at the Flavia restaurant kitty-corner to the hotel and highly recommend it (in addition to the great food, the wait staff was very friendly and fun). The hotel is about a 10-15 minute walk to the Spanish Steps. At night we cabbed to Piazza Navona and Campo de Fiori and enjoyed the restaurants and nightlife there.
