This upscale hotel, located in a historic building that was once a convent, welcomes guests with an elegant, ornate lobby. Of the 192 rooms spread out over eight floors, the suites on the higher floors with balconies are the favored accommodations; the decor isn't quite as luxurious as some may expect given the advertised five-star rating. The location is wonderfully convenient for sightseeing -- right next to the Spanish Steps and walking distance to the Villa Borghese and the Trevi Fountain. While babysitting is available, families should be aware there is a steep charge for extra people in the room. During the spring and summer months, alfresco dining is available in a charming courtyard at La Piazzetta.

The calm vibe at Hotel Del Corso is easily one of the highlights at this pleasant, family-run option that’s good value for money. Rooms have either classic or modern decor, and include a range of standard amenities like air-conditioning and free Wi-Fi. The more modern annex rooms -- just two blocks away -- have Nespresso machines and slippers to sweeten the deal. A decent breakfast buffet is served on the cozy rooftop terrace, and includes pastries, fresh fruit, and hot options. However, it's not included with standard rates. Guests are also free to use the terrace for evening drinks, but there's no formal bar service. For a similar option where breakfast is included, try Hotel Piazza di Spagna -- though it’s slightly less well-maintained.
