Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Palazzo Dama, near Piazza del Popolo, is praised for its beautiful grounds and spacious rooms, often described as nicely decorated and featuring comfortable beds, with some guests particularly enjoying the pillow menu. The pool area is a highlight, considered a relaxing, hidden gem within the city, though some guests have noted traffic noise there due to the central location. Delicious meals at the restaurant are also a plus for many, and an original Andy Warhol in the reception adds a touch of cool.

great location good dinner faulty air conditioning sparse breakfast

The location allowed easy access to main attractions. The stylish pool area had a bar and restaurant I enjoyed. The restaurant offered a good dinner one evening. I plan to return.

The air conditioning did not work properly so the room became hot. The continental breakfast provided seemed sparse in its offerings.

a tranquil retreat amidst the roman hustle

private tours pillow menu

the staff arranged private tours and transportation. i felt cared for (it was a wonderful feeling). the bed in my beautiful double room was indeed comfortable. i even discovered they offer a pillow menu to enhance sleep quality.

the hotel charged extra for the sauna and jacuzzi facilities. i also encountered a minor issue with the bathtub drain. it looked to be clogged, a slight inconvenience.
