The owner of this establishment, Alessandro, is completely incorrigible and hostile. He threw myself and my elderly traveling companion who has difficulty walking over a miscommunication involving a limo ride w/o regard for our welfare or safety. In addition, he said he would not charge us for our stay but not only did he charge us, he charged us for nights we didn't even stay! He is deviant and salacious and fully untrustworthy. Also it is NOT close to central Rome. It an enormous flight of stairs, a bus ride and a subway ride from central Rome. I advise any traveler to BEWARE!

Suite Oriani was a highlight of my trip to Roma! Clean, fantastic location and in a very nice neighbourhood. Alessandro the owner and Isabella the housekeeper were gracious and wonderful. The underground to get to see the sights and sounds is but a stone throw away and in the evenings, taking a walk to the surrouding orianis restaurants etc that were not all 'touristy' was divine! When in Roma again. Unlike other hotels, the WIFI here is free and we were able to plan via the internet great events for each day. I will be sure to stay at the Suite Oriani again!

We stayed in three different B&Bs to get a sampling of various locations in Rome. The B&B itself was very nice. Service was excellent and we felt like we had our very own maid. She was quick to help us, called taxis and insisted they be pronto, made arrangements, and made us feel at home. The room was elegant, the bathroom large, the air conditioning refreshing. The neighborhood was quiet and the views charming. We were very close to the best restaurant we had in Rome - try La Scala just down the hill! This is a very upper class neighborhood and you can walk to great shopping as well. Despite all this, the location was a hassle. We tried to use public transportation in Rome, and others had said this was convenient. However, the nearby Metro station was closed for repairs at the time of our visit, so check on this. Getting here from the Colosseum involved riding Metro B, transferring to Metro A, then riding it to Piazza de Popolo, then getting on the Urban Train which is covered in graffiti and very dirty. This dropped us off past the closed station, so we had to then ride a bus to the neighborhood, then walk up the hill. You can avoid this last bus if the station is reopened, but it will still be something of a hassle on public transportation. Anyone saying this is only 'one Metro stop' on the reviews is not telling the truth. I wished we had used a taxi more, but this will had at least 10 Euro each direction to your stay at the Suite. They may want to reduce the room charge by 20 E or provide a coupon while the Metro is closed. If you don't mind using a taxi and being out of the city center, this will be a wonderful retreat for you, as there is nothing to complain about with the suite itself or the service. I took some off on cleanliness as the fancy pillows had some stains. We used the free WiFi to video chat back to the family in the States. We enjoyed a nice breakfast in our room, and felt very secure here. You will have a hard time finding better service or a more plush room.

we really enjoyed having been to the suite oriani for one week in august 09. it's a really nice place with very welcoming staff. breakfast is a rich and italian one served in your room in the morning. location is pefect, just one subway stop away from the spanish steps or 20 minutes by walking from trevi fountaine. very nice restaurants and other facilities nearby... can't wait to come back thereee!!
