This quaint hotel is situated in the heart of historical Rome by many major tourist attractions. The 16 rooms are all standard-sized (which is relatively small in Rome), except for one suite with a private terrace. They're all decorated with warm colors and antique-style furniture, but decidedly unique styles; each has a large flat-screen TV and free Wi-Fi. A free breakfast buffet is available at the Hotel Locarno, just opposite. Hotel Anahi is best for smaller groups seeking clean rooms and a great location, but not requiring many amenities.
Scene
A quaint hotel in an elegant, old building
Walking into the small lobby
from the narrow street, guests will immediately be taken by the hotel’s simple charm. There’s a large white vase with tall twigs at the entrance and
black-and-white photographs lining the walls. The floor’s tiles are geometric
cubes in soft red, black, and cream colors. A bench has photos of screen sirens
on the cushion. By the reception desk are an electric coffee and tea maker,
snacks, and plenty of brochures. An antique-feeling staircase leads to the
hotel’s other floors (there is also an elevator).
Location
In the heart of historical Rome on the banks of the Tiber River
Situated near Piazza del
Popolo, a large pedestrian square, the hotel is also within easy reach of Via del Babuino and Via del Corso, two
of the main shopping streets. There are plenty of shops, restaurants, and bars
for guests to enjoy. Many of Rome’s most famous major attractions are close by.
The Spanish Steps, Church of Santa Maria Maggiore, the Pantheon, and Villa
Borghese Gardens are within walking distance. Flaminio Metro Station is a
five-minute walk from the hotel, making public transportation easily accessible.
Rooms
Charming, uniquely decorated rooms
The 16 rooms are all designed
in an Art Nouveau style with wooden floors and warm tones. Yet, they all have
different decor elements and furniture. There is bold, patterned wallpaper and
antique-looking furniture. The rooms are all standard-sized (which is relatively small in Rome), except for a suite
on the top floor with a private terrace. Many overlook Via della Penna. Modern
amenities include flat-screen TVs, mini-fridges, safes, and hairdryers in the small, but clean, bathrooms, which also have bidets. All rooms also have hot water kettles and a few free snacks.
Features
Limited features, but freebies include Wi-Fi and breakfast across the street
Due to the hotel’s smaller
nature, there are few extra benefits. There is no fitness center, spa, business
center, or conference rooms. However, the hotel’s deal with the Hotel Locarno
(just opposite of the hotel), allows guests to enjoy their free breakfast
buffet. It features a mix of hot and cold food items daily. The hotel’s
reception desk is open 24 hours a day and there are laundry facilities
available. Wi-Fi is free.
