Relaxing Spa Experience

“I had the opportunity to enjoy the spa facilities during my stay, and it was absolutely wonderful. We booked a private access slot for 90 minutes, which allowed us to indulge in the sauna, Turkish bath, and a massive jacuzzi with a cascading waterfall. It was the perfect way to relax after a long day of exploring Rome, and the complimentary bottle of Prosecco made it even more special.” view full review

Immaculate Room

“The room I stayed in was immaculate, with tasteful decor and a comfortable bed. I loved how quiet it was despite being centrally located. The air conditioning worked perfectly, which kept the room at just the right temperature even during the hottest days. The high ceilings provided a spacious feel, making it an ideal place to unwind after a day full of sightseeing.” view full review

Great Connectivity

“Although I didn't watch TV much during my stay, I appreciated the overall media setup in the room. The hotel had good internet connectivity, which allowed me to stay in touch with family and research places to visit in Rome. Even without cable in the second room, I found it convenient to access online streaming services with ease.” view full review

Clean and Spacious Bathroom

“The bathroom in my room was clean and well-appointed, offering ample space to move around. It had contemporary fixtures, made my morning routine enjoyable.

My stay at Relais De L'Opera was a mixed experience. The location was fantastic, being close to major attractions, and the staff were generally friendly and accommodating. However, the room was quite small and lacked proper ventilation, which made it uncomfortable at times. Additionally, I encountered some noise issues due to renovations and disturbances from other guests. Overall, it was decent but not without its faults. 😕
