Nice boutique hotel in an excellent location. Nice facilities and service but they didn't offer any VIP perks for a Platinum Expedia member so I don't think they should be listed as a VIP property.

Staff could have been more informative

The Major was nice. The location is pretty good. About 25 min walk to the Trevi Fountain and the Spanish steps. Lots of restaurants near by. The room was great ! I loved the towel warmers and the deep 🛁 bathtub. My only complaint was the staff. They were very polite but not very attentive at all. I had to ask a lot of questions that I thought they should have informed me about without me having to ask. Ex: I was not informed about the rooftop restaurant. I was not informed about check out times. I was not informed why I had to write down my credit card number at check in. Etc.

Lovely boutique hotel with nice roof top area - very convenient to access all tourist attractions mostly by foot - great transport links. Only disappointment was the limited breakfast selection and could do with a variation daily. Staff were super attentive and the room was large, clean and very comfy bed and pillows

The hotel is in a very good location a few minutes walk from the Termini railway and bus stations and conveniently located for most of the major sites of Rome, particularly Santa Maria Maggiore. There are many restaurants and bars in the area. The staff in the hotel were very smart, friendly and helpful; they used WhatsApp to communicate with us before and during our stay, and Stefano on reception made sure to ask us at the beginning and near the end of our stay if everything was satisfactory with the room. When we asked for an electric kettle, one was put into the room by the time we returned. Our room was spacious and comfortable, with a large comfortable bed and a large bathroom with a spacious walk-in shower. I only have two minor niggles: the lift was slow, so we could wait a while on it; and the rooftop bar was festooned with lights, so at night it was very difficult to see out. These are very minor issues, and I would happily stay at Hotel Major again.

The hotel itself was excellent and the staff was accommodating, friendly, and very helpful. The room was very nice and the location was great, if you were wanting to walk to the train. Not as close to other attractions in Rome but a decent uber ride away. However, the restaurant at the top of the hotel was less than desirable. The food was excellent but the staff was extremely rude and we had two separate experiences there that left a bad taste in our mouth. The first time, the gentlemen who sat us made an extremely rude and sexist comment about be to my husband which the staff laughed off but we did not appreciate. The second offense was to my husband, we came back to our room being cleaned so we headed to the rooftop bar to grab a drink while we waited and he had already had a soft drink in his hand and the staff turned their nose up to him and told him he was not allowed to bring that and they were upset with him. Please know that the hotel was amazing but I would skip the rooftop restaurant and go to any other place in Rome!!

The room was big. Not sure it was an upgrade. The room was way too hot and the fan and ac didn’t seem to work. Good luck w WiFi. I accidentally booked this on the wrong day and it was unsuccessful at changing ressy. I basically paid twice. We didn’t use restaurant upstairs but it looked cute.
