With views of Piazza Barberini and its fountain, the Hotel Barocco Rome is a 4-star hotel renovated in 2019 and decorated with antique furniture. Its entrance is at Via della Purificazione 4, a short walk from the Trevi Fountain and the Spanish Steps.
Location and getting around
The postal address is Piazza Barberini 9, but you enter from Via della Purificazione. From there, the Trevi Fountain and the Spanish Steps are each about a 10-minute walk away. The Pantheon and Termini station are about 20 minutes on foot.
Rooms and facilities
All the rooms have air conditioning, free wifi and a flat-screen TV with satellite channels. Some have stucco ceilings, a four-poster bed or a bath with chromotherapy. If any of these details interest you, ask for that type of room.
Breakfast (buffet, continental or Italian) is served until 11:00, and the bar is open late. From some windows you can see the fountain in Piazza Barberini, the work of Bernini. If that appeals, ask for an exterior room.
Who it suits
- Couples looking for a room with classic decor right in the centre.
- Anyone who is not an early riser and appreciates breakfast until mid-morning.
- Travellers who want to walk to Trevi and the Spanish Steps.
Good to know
You can arrive from 14:00, but the hotel asks you to let it know your arrival time in advance. Check-out is until 11:00. The hotel does not list a restaurant for meals. There are other 4-star hotels in the same area.
