I ended up at Hotel Prince Galles after a booking mix-up, and despite the initial challenges, my stay was decent overall. The duplex room was spacious and clean but had some issues like uncomfortable bedding and unresponsive air conditioning. The breakfast arrangement was a bit inconvenient since it was at a different hotel, but the location was a huge plus, being close to Termini Station.

My room was a spacious duplex with a unique layout, featuring a sitting area and a wooden deck with a king-size bed above. However, the mattress was too saggy for comfort, which made it a bit challenging to sleep well during my stay.

The staff was friendly and helpful, especially during check-in. They did their best to accommodate my situation after the hotel mix-up, but the lack of potable water was concerning and not handled very well.

I recently stayed at Prince Galles with my family over Eastern Week, and there were both enjoyable and some disappointing aspects. The spacious quadruple room had a unique split-level layout, which we loved, but it felt a bit dark and could use more lighting. The proximity to Termini Station was a plus, making travel around Rome easy, although the cleanliness could have been better at first. Overall, for the price paid, it offered decent value for money, but there are areas that need improvement. 🌟
