We were in Rome for a couple of nights and found the Dom Hotel through Mr & Mrs Smith. It is tucked away on a back street, opposite the counter-terrorism offices so very secure. As quiet an area as I suspect you can find in Rome too. The hotel is a boutique, so not huge, although it does have a bar, restaurant and rooftop. The staff were super friendly and helpful. We had booked a junior suite, largely because no other choices were available and we had two big suitcases and other bags with us, and the room was certainly spacious. It was modern in design, with a low bed, but very comfortable to sleep on. The bathroom area was very spacious, and the rain forest shower was of reasonable strength - all with Acqua di Parma toiletries. If I had one criticism, it would be that for all the space in the room and bathroom, it is not well optimised as there is nowhere to really rest items on - either for toiletries, or a dressing table area, which was a little frustrating. I think having two bathroom sinks but nowhere to put a washbag is not really logical. Likewise having two towel rails and a seat in the bathroom but nowhere for ladies to sit and do their make up against a well lit mirror is also a little peculiar. I would recommend for a short stay, and the staff were excellent, but if I was the owner of the hotel I would rethink the room layout a little as that is what is stopping me from giving it 5 stars.
