Why Stay at the Hotel Suisse Rome?

As a single mom trying to give the Youthful Adventurer the eighth-grade graduation trip of his dreams, I plan our journey carefully to Rome, being most worried about how my limited budget would match up with my son’s hope to visit the Colosseum. When in Rome, we will not be staying in palazzos or taxiing around very much, but what we lose in grandeur we make up for with location by staying at the Hotel Suisse Rome.

Hotel Suisse Rome: Great Location Near Spanish Steps
Our space in this very small hotel of just a dozen rooms has all that we need: a private bathroom, a continental breakfast, and, most importantly, an ideal location. Located near the Spanish Steps, and, of most interest to the youthful one, to McDonald’s, my teen earns his own sense of independence when I let him venture out to bring dinner to us one evening. Rome with a teen turns out not to be that pricey—a burger, some pizza, a gelato are all he really requires.
A Pleasant Place that is Pleasantly Priced
In choosing a place like the Hotel Suisse Rome, what I really want is the review of someone who’s been there. I’ve been there. It is perfect for us on our little journey. Our room overlooks a courtyard, so the noise of the city is safely obscured. The hotel is a healthy journey from the Termini, but we walk from the train station nevertheless, and I see my young son’s awe as we walk on street after street observing the blend of ancient and contemporary.
From our hotel, all we need is a comfortable, secure, clean place to rest, and we get it.
