A quirky hotel but once you get used to it, you will really appreciate it. The hosts, especially Annette, are wonderful, friendly and will make you feel at home. The rooms may not be the most modern but very clean. Location is simply perfect.

Two flights of stairs, no lift

Quirky if not dated. Staff were wonderful, very helpful. 24 hour check in

It is quite a climb to the 2nd floor entrance once you find the entrance and right bell. Won't suit everybody as all old fashioned - real turn in the lock keys! Rooms are OK size but not large. Opening the key operated fridge was a knack. Can suffer from road and people outside noise - tradeoff for view of ruins where Julius Caesar was assasinated in our case. Back rooms probably little or no noise = atmosphere.

Quirky, quite hidden, small hotel. Entrance is on 2nd floor of an around 300 years old building on a large plaza right in the centre of Rome. Has many old original features. No breakfast room! Instead a fridge full of lots of fresh food stuffs, drinks, a shelf full of a range of tinned foods and salads, a bowl of fresh fruit, various drinks, and disposable (some recycleable) bowls, plates & cups. Espresso machine and plenty of coffee. Need more, just ask! We used it for both breakfast and some lunches. Frescoes on the walls, original beams, like stepping back a couple of centuries. Very friendly and helpful staff. Lots buses and taxis outside.

Such a fabulous experience, we arrived at 3am to a sparkling clean room with a fridge full of tasty food that was all part of the rate. Every thing that you could think of was included for a wonderful stay. The host was extremely gracious.

All staff were friendly and helpful. Our room had everything we needed including shaving kits (very useful for female, light travellers!) The hotel was 10 mins walking distance from the Pantheon and Travestere with other attractions easily accessible. The pizzeria below serves freshly made pasta, a great place to eat and so close to your very comfy bed (and massage chair). If you want ultra modern, this isn't for you. If you enjoy a quirky, cosy atmosphere this is the hotel for you.

The property was lovely & quirky and in a great location,walking distance to everything. The staff were so friendly & helpful and ensured we had a great stay. The breakfast and additional inclusions were generous and beyond our expectations. We would definitely recommend the hotel.

It was up 2 floors which was a little tough with heavy suitcases. Manager was very helpful carrying the bags down and halfway up.

Charmingly Italian older building with small refrigerator stocked for the patrons.

No elevator, very quirky room with too much furniture. Would have liked a breakfast room instead of a room stocked with food.

Great location, quiet, great bed, great staff.

We were on the third floor no lift of course. Not a problem for us but maybe not suitable for elderly.

Lots of snacks and continental breakfast in room. A massage chair and foot massager too but didn’t use. This was the only chair in the room as we had a triple. We weren’t in the room much and only stayed 1 day but it would have been cramped if we had stayed longer. Double glazing on windows cut out the street noise. Perfect location for exploring and transport to Termini.

It was a bit too small for 3 but doable

Location

Stayed in October 2024

Location can’t be beat. Walking distance to all major sites, also next to a set of bus lines and a taxi stand. Staff very helpful and welcoming. Noise canceling windows blocked out city sounds so we could sleep. Rooms quite small. Like being on a ship. Plenty of snacks for any time of day included.

Would have liked more floor space and breakfast outside of the bedroom.

It was completely and wonderfully over the top!

Hotel Barrett exceeded our expectations - from the look of the Hotel (coolest hotel I've stayed in), the incredibly helpful staff, the offerings of the room (every snack you can imagine AND an in-room massage chair - the smartest thing ever when you spend 12hrs of walking) and the location, you can't go wrong :)

Room was very cluttered.

Annette on reception was amazing, the hospitality of the hotel is Five star. Very quirky Hotel, may not be everyone’s cup of tea, but we loved it.The location to see all the attractions and places of interest was great for us, very central to everything. They really do go that one step further to welcome you and spoil you. We would highly recommend this hotel you can’t go wrong. Thanks for a wonderful stay and Annette you deserve a raise!!😃😃

Finding the entrance was a little difficult at first

Very eclectic, feeling like Rome Location was excellent for sightseeing Our daytime concierge was fabulous made our stay even better Plus your fridge is fully stocked and great coffee set up

Challenging to find the entrance upon arrival. Necessary to call desk to have security gate opened. No elevator to get up to third floor. Leave key at desk when going out.

Friendly staff. More than adequate supply of a very wide variety of food and drink that came with the price of the room. Sufficient to picnic in room if don’t want to go out. Very advanced shower, but very limited space inside.

Please be aware that the lobby is up two floors with no elevator service.

We recently stayed at the Hotel Barrett during our trip to Rome friends. The room was uniquely decorated with a great view overlooking ruins. The refrigerator was well stocked with a variety of items. The coffee machine and variety of coffees was amazing. They could have done better with adding fresh bakery items instead of packaged. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The hotel is in a great location.
