I rarely write reviews, but my experience at Hotel Quirinale was so upsetting, I felt the need to warn others.
From the moment I arrived, I was treated with cold indifference by the front desk staff. There was no greeting, no warmth – nothing. It was clear I was being treated differently because I’m Asian. Their tone was dismissive and borderline hostile, it was blatant and deeply uncomfortable.
The porter was no better. As I struggled to move my luggage out to my transport, they stood around at the entrance smoking and laughing, not even offering a hand or a simple gesture of help. They watched me struggle without lifting a finger. It was downright unprofessional.
Inside the hotel, the experience didn’t improve. The entire building feels old and worn down – far from the “classic charm” they advertise. The decor is outdated, the furnishings are tired, and the whole place is in desperate need of a serious upgrade.
To make matters worse, there is zero soundproofing. You can hear everything – conversations from the rooms above and below, people walking in the halls at all hours, and doors slamming shut like gunshots. It’s impossible to get any rest, and it makes you feel constantly on edge.
This was hands-down one of the worst hotel experiences I’ve ever had. Between the discriminatory attitude, the lack of basic service, the shabby facilities, and the constant noise, I would strongly advise anyone considering.
