The room was great and neat. The staff was friendly. The breakfast had some problems. The bread was not so fresh every day, and there were limited options. The variety of juices and fruits were also limited.

The room was spacious and clean, as was the entire hotel. The staff were incredibly helpful and friendly. This hotel has truly thought about its guests through the amenities it offers. The hotel’s connected rooftop restaurant was absolutely amazing. I want to emphasize just how friendly the staff were throughout my entire stay.

The location is very good in that it’s close to the train station (in and out from the airport), in front of Santa Maria Maggiore and minutes from the colosseu/forum. Good breakfast, clean roomsz. The front desk staff has a detached attitude —don’t expect a warm Mediterranean welcome.

I really enjoyed my stay at Major Hotel in Rome. The hotel is comfortable and well located, but what stood out the most was the staff. Everyone was incredibly kind, helpful, and welcoming, which made my stay especially pleasant. I would gladly stay here again.
