This was a beautiful property, far enough away from the tourist attractions that you can get a good nights rest while still feeling like you’re in Italy! Not too far of a walk to the Trevi Fountain and other major attractions. The room was beautiful, the room service was amazing, and my favorite part; air conditioning!! (Which can be hard to find in Europe) the staff was helpful and friendly. I felt safe as a female solo traveler and would 1000% stay here again.

My Stay at the Major Exceeded my expectations. The location is near a transportation hub that allows easy access to all trains, buses and is less than a block from a taxi stand. Restaurants and Iconic Landmarks are within walking distance. and arranging transfer to and from the airport is a breeze. Their Driver Miguel is the best! The Rooftop Restaurant is amazing; breakfast and dinner is top notch. The staff is friendly and accommodating. I will stay at The Major again and recommend it to everyone.
