Review summary

Hotel Raphael enjoys an enviable location steps from Piazza Navona, making it easy to explore Rome's attractions like the Pantheon and Castel Sant'Angelo on foot. Guests frequently compliment the spacious and well-equipped rooms, sometimes finding a welcome gift of wine and treats upon arrival. The rooftop terrace offers a gorgeous view, while the breakfast, often featuring a live harp performance, is considered superb; however, some guests have noted that the selection of cakes and croissants could be more extensive.

Acceptable Stay, but Bathroom Needs Update

The staff was friendly and efficient .
The bathroom felt dated. I noticed some mildew in the shower (which was not ideal). I also thought 800€ a night should get more luxury.
