Tripplo's verdict, based on guest reviews
Tripplo’s analysis · Updated 10 October 2026 · How we review hotels
This hotel is best for history lovers and fine diners wanting a legendary location overlooking the city. Hassler Roma, adored by guests on Booking.com and Google alike, stands directly atop the Spanish Steps. It features Michelin-starred dining at Imàgo and a family-owned hospitality heritage. On the downside, the traditional decor style may feel dated to some, and the immediate surroundings experience high tourist traffic.
Guests score it 9.6 out of 10 — the average across the 19 hotels we list in Rome is 9.2.
What Guests Loved
- Situated at the summit of the Trinità dei Monti, the hotel provides immediate access to Rome's historic center while remaining elevated above the densest street-level crowds.
- The sixth-floor restaurant, Imàgo, combines refined Italian cuisine with expansive floor-to-ceiling windows that overlook St. Peter’s Basilica and the city's ancient rooftops.
Things to Consider
- The interior aesthetic relies heavily on ornate fabrics and period furniture, which provides historical character but might lack the clean lines preferred by fans of modern design.
- The area surrounding the entrance is a major destination for visitors, though the hotel's interior spaces remain a secluded and quiet sanctuary away from the public activity.

Reviews from Google“So, we didn't stay here, but my brother and his family did. Obviously, they loved it! We had the main event for the 40th Birthday event here and well....all 58 adults still talk about it. I am sure if the 21 kids who attended as well were older, they would be raving too! The ambiance of the conference and outdoor area connected to it were just gorgeous and the decor elevated it further. When we return to Rome though, we would be staying in this hotel for sure! I saw the pictures and...its just like behind the Spanish Steps! So 2 for 2! Lol This place made the event memorable for us for sure!”
“Staying at the Hassler Roma was an unforgettable experience that perfectly captured the essence of Roman elegance. Located at the very top of the Spanish Steps, this iconic hotel offers the most breathtaking panoramic views of the Eternal City. From the moment we arrived, the service was impeccable—attentive, professional, and genuinely warm. Our room was a masterpiece of classic design, blending historic charm with modern luxury. Dining at the Michelin-starred Imàgo was a highlight; watching the sunset over St. Peter's Basilica while enjoying world-class cuisine is a memory I will cherish forever. It is more than just a hotel; it’s a legendary landmark. If you are looking for perfection in the heart of Rome, this is it. Highly recommended!”
“We stayed for one night at the Hassler and were so impressed by the service and the beautiful hotel. From the airport pickup to checkout and everything in between, EVERYONE took such good care of us. The room was beautiful and impeccably clean and the beds were so comfortable. We had dinner at the hotel restaurant and enjoyed sweeping views while eating a delicious meal. It was a one-of-a-kind experience. Special shout out to Vito at the front desk who took the time to talk to us about all our concerns and made us feel so welcome on our first trip to Rome.”
“An unforgettable lunch at the Hasler Roma! What a truly stunning hotel in one of the most beautiful locations in Rome, just steps from Piazza di Spagna. The atmosphere is elegant, timeless, and incredibly welcoming. The food was delicious, beautifully presented, and the service was impeccable—attentive, professional, and warm from start to finish. Every detail reflected true luxury and Italian hospitality. A magical experience in an iconic setting. I can’t wait to return. Highly recommended! What a service ❤️”
“The Hassler is truly the definition of timeless opulence. Perched at the top of the Spanish Steps, it offers some of the most breathtaking views in all of Rome. The views that alone are worth the visit. From the moment you arrive, every detail exudes elegance, history, and refinement. The Michelin starred restaurant on the 6th floor provides a culinary experience that rivals any in Europe. Each dish is a masterpiece, complemented by an atmosphere of classic sophistication. My only regret is that I could only stay for one night, with less than 24 hours to soak in the experience. This is a place that deserves more time!”
