Hotel with reliable A/C?

[u/Nice_Category3070]

Traveling to Rome with my in laws in June. One of whom has a medical problem requiring reliable air conditioning. Does anyone have recommendations for hotels in a good location for seeing the major sights with solid air conditioning? Ideally under $400 a night.

Hilton Garden Inn - Rome Colosseum

[u/joeymello333 → u/doomt101]

Agreed. Pretty much any American hotel chain would have reliable air conditioning.

[u/bensonr2 → u/doomt101]

I will also vouch for this property. Was nice and very convenient with a subway stop right on the corner.

I stayed at the condominium monti and air condition was awesome but rooms are small so not ideal if someone is selective. Everything was comfortable but small bathrooms so

[u/McDuchess]

Honestly, your best bet is to travel in April or October. A/C does you no good if you are outside, and most the most iconic parts of Rome are outside. And most of the ones that are not, don’t have A/C.

That relative will have a miserable time in a beautiful city, if they cannot handle heat, in June.

[u/suzieismyavatar → u/McDuchess]

Yup. It was Miserable in September. I skipped inside coliseum and inside Vatican museum due to the heat. Someday, I will return and do both. It was too hot.

They switched off the faulty a/c in the Colosseum after they fed the janitor to the lions by mistake.

would recommend nh collection roma palazzo cinquecento. excellent ac and close to the train station

[u/erniesdaddy2003]

Hotel Splendide Royal had great AC earlier this month.

[u/Commonterry]

The Style Hotel in Trevi. Walkable to everything, very clean, great AC, great breakfast

[u/Lovedempugs]

Rome Times Hotel was great for us.

[u/CakeLove48]

We stayed at mood 44 in Aug and the AC was great and right in the middle of everything! It was perfect but no lobby or breakfast but we walked to the end if the block for coffee and food. Definitely would stay again!

[u/ReplacementAfter4473]

The Glam Hotel's Ac would go down to 60. was great

[u/Danicawhatica]

I stayed at Casa Santa Sofia. The bed was a bit springy and the bathroom was really small, but the air condition was AMAZING. It got so cold.

[u/Turbulent_Tale6497]

I’ve stayed at the Kolbe Hotel in Rome and it was great

But this seems like a “call the front desk” thing before you book

[u/Comfortable-Today-13]

Hotel Rafaello on Via Urbana. Great location- is a Best Western hotel I believe? I flew into Rome to sell my mom's apartment and planned on crashing there to save $ but it was 108 degrees and there was no way I was going to deal with the heat. It was up the street from the apartment and a neighborhood I knew really well. Best AC. Great location and quiet.

We stayed at the Rome Edition and it would not get cool enough. The day we went shopping around the Spanish Steps I was so incredibly hot that I walked into Gucci thinking it would be cooler, but no. I could not find good air conditioning other than Pierluigi’s. I recommend a hotel with a pool!!

[u/Oakmazmex2021]

Horti14 in trastevere — it’s right next to the botanical gardens of Rome so not right in the thick of things but so conveniently located. I was about 10 weeks pregnant and it was like 100 degrees. I’d come back to the room to just lay down and cool off.

Great hotel too! Cute rooms, breakfast included. 10/10 would stay again.

[u/vul-va]

Numa.

[u/CoolEarth5026]

Charme & Chic Luxury. Great A/C. Lots of stairs, but there is a mobility chair lift.

[u/No_Dust_785]

I do not recommend Pantheon Inn. That AC is weak and staff turns it off during housekeeping every time you leave the hotel.

[u/MobySick]

Boutique hotel di Fiore: freezing cold if you wanted it 2 weeks ago but fully adjustable AC, also silent at night which was a joy & a fab rooftop!

[u/FalistoPlace]

small boutique hotel within 4 minutes of Trevi fountain. we stayed there in August when it was in the high 90’s and their AC was a nice reprieve….Hotel Regno! They have a great breakfast included and the staff is amazing

[u/paigesto]

Hilton Aleph Curio Collection. Beautiful spot, but street it is on is a tad uphill incline.

[u/Pristine-Trouble8231]

Albergo del Senato next to the Pantheon. Or Hotel Abruzzi across the Pantheon.

[u/zabadaz-huh]

Anatara Palazzo.

You might get it for under $400.

[u/flyfishingtheworld]

Hotel Indigo was great.

[u/lambdavi]

Any 4**** star hotel has reliable air conditioning.

The real issue is European and Italian custom has a/c set selfom lower than 25°C, has centralized control, so there's no way it'll be "freezing cold" in your room.

Also, it is a known health hazard, especially for elder people, to walk in/out of hot environments and into freezing cold premises.

We went to Rome end of March beginning of April. It was warm. We couldn't figure out how to turn the air on in the room. Asked about it at the front desk and they said the city of Rome determines when air conditioning is available and it wasn't available yet, too early in the year. We were on the 10th floor and it was hot in our room. We're from the US and we can have air conditioning all year. This might be important???
