Location was great, it was really private and the popular places not far away. Has a menu were you can order a lunch or a dinner at the reception. Breakfast was okay, different Italian cakes and croissants as well as vegetables, eggs, yogurts, cereals. Staff was really welcoming, always asked if you need something more and made you feel comfortable. Room was cleaned between our two days of stay. They had all the things you need - shower gel, shampoo, conditioneer, even body scrub and intimate wash, body cream.

The only problem was the sound insulation through the doors. Had a room 11 which is right by the breakfast place and you could hear all the noises and talks from there in the room. A big problem for late sleepers, couldn’t sleep because of the noises. And couldn’t understand how to turn off the lights in the bathroom. When going to the bathroom at night, they switched on and only after some time switched off. Hair dryer was very heavy and not so good, took a long time to dry the hair.

Beautiful little retreat within close proximity to the Colosseum (walking distance) and other cultural sites. Staff very friendly and provided some great recommendations for us. Breakfast was good, the pool area was sweet and their pasta dishes they serve are fab if you want to eat in.

Sink and shower in our room didn’t drain very well at all - we were on the top floor. Hotel arranged a taxi for me from the airport - I provided all the details so that the company could track my flight which ended up being late… resulted in the taxi driving trying to haggle with me and insisting on 50% more pay for ‘waiting’. In the end I refused and took an Uber for 50% less than the original quoted price.

Holy mother of god, this place is excellent! The main house is a AMAZING design pice from the 60s. It has such a warmth but also clean architectural vibe. I really really loved it. The whole thing has only 14 rooms, 7 of them in the main building and the rest in the courtyard (they are a little cheaper). The pool is clean and nice and the garden gives such a wonderful peace and quiet oasis in the middle of Rome. It’s 100 meters from the metro, 8 minutes by foot to the colosseum, there is 5-6 restaurants just 150 meters away (we ate at the two that had the best reviews on google, and they were perfectly fine Italian bistros). The staff is friendly and helpful and the place is clean. Rich breakfast for such a small place. I fell so lucky that we got to stay here and it was definitely worth the little extra money to stay in the BEUTIFUL main house. I want to go home to Norway and build one just like it.

That we had to leave

The location of the hotel is amazing, 1min to bus stops and subway, 10min walk to Colloseo. The area is very calm and safe. The garden is beautiful and it’s very green. There is a swimming pool, so in the summer it would be great to chill in it. Breakfast is okay, the choice is good but quality is 50/50, especially cafe latte ( no way to get it right). Rooms are stylishly made, shower is old already and when you wash too long, the water goes into the main room. Also you can’t close the room from inside ( kinda strange), there is simply no lock and you just trust the system. Overall, it’s clean, nice location, fine breakfast. For several nights it’s perfect to stay.

I loved the location, the staff and the swimming pool! The hotel is a quiet, secluded haven, just one street away from the Metro, the Circus Maximus and 10 minute walk to the Colosseum. Every member of staff was polite, cheerful and helpful. The pool was lovely, particularly after a hot day sightseeing. The buffet breakfast was fresh and tasty, with enough choice for all palettes. The room was clean and comfortable and had a balcony overlooking the pool. The aircon wasn't as strong as I'd have liked, but was still a comfortable temperature.

A quiet green oasis in the historic centre of the city. The room is spacious and comfortable. Breakfast was very good value and delicious, and the staff were the highlight of our stay.

The bathroom has a rather inconvenient design for the bathtub, it's too high to comfortably step in. The screens do not prevent the water from staying in the wet zone and you end up with the bathroom flooded every time you shower. The bathroom also lacks hooks or rails for hanging towels. The cleanliness of the bathroom was not the best, especially the bathtub area.

Fantastic location, very close to the Metro and Open Top Bus Tours, and with a couple of excellent restaurants and a supermarket within an easy walk. The swimming pool and gardens were relaxing and enjoyable, and provided a great contrast to relax after sight-seeing. Breakfast was lovely with a good array of food and very good service. All the staff were helpful throughout our stay.

The air-conditioning wasn't quite up to standard so our rooms were always on the warm side (although in fairness we were there in a heatwave with daytime temperatures in the mid-30s.)

Loved opening the gate from Rome outside into a green and calm space to relax and recharge. Architecture is in a style that I adore so added bonus and rooms reflect the style and build. The breakfasts offered a good choice - eggs/ bacon, pastries, yogurts, cheeses etc. great coffee Lovely bar and lounge area. The pool was brilliant, cool , clean and much needed given the heat. pool towels provided. Enough loungers for all but do put on your mozzie spray. Room was clean, air con worked well though struggled understandably on the day it hit 39. Tea/coffee facilities good . Large comfy bed and easy to work tv. Reception will provide more hangers if asked. Decent hairdryer. Reception staff prompt, efficient and helpful - book taxis, recommend restaurants etc Location was good - 5 or so good restaurants within 15mins. Further few in 20 mins. Can walk across bridge to Travastine area in 25mins. Right on circus maximus and 15min walk to coliseum. Supermarket / pharmacy within 10 min walk. 35 mins from airport/station by taxi. Throughly recommend.

Maybe tidy up the garden shrubs around pool but nothing else.

The breakfast was good and the waiter was very attentive. I’m sure the hotel would be a welcome oasis in the summer months.

There are some design issues with the garden rooms . There is a sliding door that hides the glass shower which I had to pull across the wardrobe area as the lights were on a sensor a came on when we moved. This meant you could see inside the bathroom when someone was using it. There beds only had a blanket and sheet and it wasn’t warm enough but I asked for an extra blanket so that wasn’t a problem.

The pictures don't do Fauno justice. It's setting is that of a peaceful oasis in the midst of busy Rome. Everything was excellent. The staff, the breakfast, the prosecco round the pool, the pool itself so appreciated on a hot afternoon. We stayed in Room 11 which I think was the best. Direct access to the ground level, so much space, a bath for weary legs and the most comfortable bed we have ever slept in. The bonus is the private outdoor area with table chairs and sun loungers. Also Raph on reception is full of good information including local restaurants. He was lovely to talk to. Thanks also to the attentive staff at breakfast, on reception and managing the bar. We walked to Circus Massemo (2 mins), The Palentine (5 mins), Collaseum (8 mins), Trevi Fountain (30 mins), Jewish Quarter (20 mins). The hop on hop off bus is a 5 min walk.

Saying I didn't like anything doesn't seem fair. I'll give a few top tips though...prepare for the hungry mosquitos around the pool and don't bother with the cheese & meat platter.
