    Great location! Staff were very friendly and helpful. Nice breakfast. Rooms were clean. Great value. Bathrooms were small but typical for European hotels. Beds were firm.

    Good breakfast , boutique feel and very helpful staff Could do with more variety for breakfast almost the same options available over three days. No kettle in the room or ironing board and iron in the room

    Good location, very kind staff, clean and spacious room, great view to the ancient walls. We loved to stay there.

  • Engine customer Apr 2026

    Centrally located, clean rooms, wonderful breakfast and the staff was attentive and accommodating. Rooms were a little tight to move about , Only that you asked

  • Engine customer Apr 2026

    Beautiful location right by the Borghese Gardens in an upscale neighborhood. Quiet area away from the crowds. Friendly helpful staff. Clean comfortable rooms on the third floor of an office building. Lots of nice options on the breakfast buffet! It’s not that close to a subway stop and it’s up a fairly long hill. Could have used a shelf in the bathroom for toiletries and a mirror to see how you’re looking.

  • Engine customer Nov 2025

    No one is at the reception when we arrived , we waited long and up to our check out ., again no one is in the reception area. We wanted to be early so as not to miss the flight..but the personnel that must be at the hotel reception is always missing!

    I was surprised to find that the desk wasn’t staffed 24 hours but luckily arrived and departed when it was. Also, it was a bit noisy as our room was located just above Harry’s Bar.

  • Engine customer Oct 2025

    Exceptional staff, helpful and engaging. Hotel is elegant and sophisticated, rooms beautifully appointed. We arrived earlier than check-in and, while there is no lobby in which to wait, we were able to leave our luggage at the welcome desk and go for lunch at a nearby restaurants. There are ample walking opportunities in the park a block away. This was our first stay at this hotel but will not be our last. Highly recommend.

    Breakfast was so so. Location near the Pincian Gate on the Via Venato was good. No hot breakfast items as expected for a boutique hotel.

  • Engine customer Jul 2025

    We really appreciate The Shire Hotel transferring us to an amazing nearby hotel due to an A/C issue they had right before we arrived. We were welcomed by The Shire staff and escorted to the new hotel. We felt taken care of and that is what mattered most in those moments after travelling long distances to reach Rome. N/A

    The AC was not working Room is tiny. Bad facilities

  • Engine customer Jun 2025

    Nothing was good about this place. Air Conditioning did not work. Located in old gross building with lots of busy road noise. This place was horrible

  • Engine customer Jun 2025

    The staff is very kind and accommodative ! The location couldn’t be better! I recommend this hotel! N/A

  • Engine customer May 2025

    Great location. I was given a handicap bathroom and wasn’t a fan of the shower. Water all over. Had to use many towels to clean up.

  • Engine customer May 2025

    Property was clean and in a great location. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Loved the balcony room overlooking the city. They helped us get into our room early after a long red eye flight and early arrival Would have been cool to have earlier breakfast, as we were busy with activities most days. But I don’t really think that’s a complaint, just our schedule.

  • Engine customer May 2025

    The location of the hotel was perfect—about 15 minute walk from the Trevi and most attractions. The staff were great! Very helpful and informative. There were some minor issues with the Air Conditioning but the staff handled it.

  • Engine customer Apr 2025

    I have stayed several times in Via Veneto and find that the rooms at the Shire are comparable to those of nearby luxury brand hotels. I look foward to returning in the future.
