The nine-room SuiteDreams Hotel may have a cheesy pun built into the name, but it's actually a solid mid-range option within walking distance of Termini Statin and Trevi Fountain. The hotel feels updated thanks to use of modern design trends, and free extras such as Wi-Fi and breakfast add value. Rooms are decently sized and clean (if a tad bland), with most sporting twin beds and stone shower stalls. It's a good price for the location, but it's worth comparing rates with the Hotel Fontana, which is a bit closer to the tourist sights.
Scene
A tiny modern hotel in a building shared with other hotels
The SuiteDreams Hotel, a tiny property located in a building shared with other hotels, may initially be hard to find, and it is necessary to buzz in to enter. Guests can take the building's old-fashioned elevator with wrought iron or marble staircase to the front door, and once inside, the design clean, simple, and modern, with a few fun touches. Walls in the hallways are adorned with photographs and works by contemporary artists, and the breakfast room is decorated with decoupage of old newspapers and clear plastic chairs. The hotel is separated into different sections with different color and celebrity themes for each area. The decor inside the rooms is is fairly bland, however.
