This historic hotel is housed in an 18th century building that was formerly a Franciscan monastery. Classic decor with
antique furnishings, crystal sconces, and dark, stately wood accents create a
luxurious, relaxing setting. Hotel Forum Roma features two bars -- one in the
lobby and one on the rooftop. The latter area also has a garden restaurant,
with fantastic views of the Roman Forum, located right across the street. Those
traveling on business can utilize the large meeting room and take advantage of
the free Wi-Fi throughout the hotel. The 80 guest rooms are on the smaller
side, but are decorated in a refined, luxurious style.****

Scene
An elegant, stately lobby with antique furniture, relaxing sitting areas, and a bar
The
lobby of the hotel is elegant and stately, with marble floors covered with deep
red Persian rugs, a large front desk made of carved dark-stained wood, beautiful
crystal sconces and light fixtures, and large windows draped with patterned,
silky fabrics. As guests venture further into the space, there’s a large
sitting area filled with plush velvet couches and refined furniture. Across
from the sitting area is a handsome bar with buttery leather seats and
beautiful gold-framed paintings. The lobby also has several glass cases featuring various artifacts. Other elements from the original building are present as well, including brick walls and stone columns.****
Location
Across the street from the Roman Forum, within walking distance to the Colosseum and other sights
Hotel
Forum Roma is located in the Rione Monti area of the city center, directly
across a narrow, cobble-stoned street from the archaeological areas of the
Roman Forum. It is also within walking distance to many other popular sights,
such as the Colosseum, Forum of Augustus, and Piazza Venezia, as well as an
array of shops, restaurants, and bars. The neighborhood is a restricted traffic
zone, so the hotel is spared noise from passing cars. Getting to Leonardo Da
Vinci International Airport is a bit more than a 30-minute drive west.
Rooms
Classically decorated rooms with ornate decor; some units have gorgeous views
Guest
rooms here are stately, with a classically ornate presentation. A variety of room styles are
offered -- the more deluxe the category, the more luxurious and spacious they
are. Hardwood floors, small Persian rugs, large windows covered with refined
drapes, and gold-framed paintings of Italian scenery create
an elegant ambiance. Covered in silky pillows, beds rest against plush fabric
headboards. (Keep in mind some of the beds are two smaller ones pushed
together.) All rooms come with flat-screen TVs, large closets, desks, mini-fridges, and upholstered armchairs. While not all units have a view, the
ones that do have excellent sights of the forum and surrounding area. Some of
the larger rooms come with separate sitting areas as well as additional
bedrooms and bathrooms. Standard bathrooms are small and basic, with
tiled walls and floors, tub/shower combos, free toiletries, and a bidet. The Suites and Deluxe Rooms have larger bathrooms, some with jetted tubs.****

A chic outdoor bar is connected as well. Hotel Forum Roma also has a
large outdoor terrace filled with chairs and potted plants, a refined lobby
bar, a lobby computer, and a large meeting room that can hold up to 100 people.
