I’m usually very particular when it comes to choosing hotels, but The First Dolce has truly become one of my all-time favorites! Everything was simply perfect—from the stunning marble bathroom to the warm, welcoming, and highly professional staff. The rooms are beautifully cozy, and every day we were surprised with little treats such as chocolates or freshly baked pastries. Having a private sauna in the bathroom was a real luxury and the best way to relax after long walks through the streets of Rome. The front desk team went above and beyond—helping us not only with recommendations, but also with tickets, dinner reservations, and so much more. A special thanks goes to the manager, Alina, who made our stay unforgettable. She made us feel completely at home, and now we are certain that The First Dolce will be the only hotel we choose whenever we come back to Rome.

Great location, spacious with balcony.

Definitely a great location, near to plenty of restaurants and shopping of high end brands. Near to Spanish steps and the staff were friendly and helpful. The only thing is that the taxi does not stop in front of the hotel. You will need to pull your luggages a bit but just for a short distance.

I spent a night in room 203 and was awakened early in the morning around 8:00 AM by construction noise, which only improved around 3:00 PM. There is renovation work being done in the building next door, and I was not informed about it in advance. I believe it's unreasonable for a hotel not to notify guests ahead of time so that they can choose not to stay there.
