Casa Fabbrini Boutique B & B

I have mixed feelings about Casa Fabbrini Roma. Having stayed at their property in Tuscany and for the price we paid, I expected better.||The location is excellent—a clear advantage—and the historic house is charming and nicely decorated. The welcome was very friendly and helpful, as was the staff also at breakfast time. Guests will appreciate the availability of cakes, fruits, coffee, and tea throughout the day. Just note that there are steep, narrow stairs, so guests with mobility concerns might need to check in advance.||Unfortunately there also were some downsides. Our top-floor room was uncomfortably cold, as the central heating operated only a few hours in the evening, and the air-condition heater was insufficient for the cold temperature of this room. We were constantly freezing, which is unnaceptable and left us deeply disappointed. The door lock was hard to operate. And while shabby chic can be charming, the rusty bathroom mirror shelf was not, also other pieces would benefit from being updated. The shower had traces of mold, and the silicone on the shower door was falling appart. Bathroom amenities were minimal, with only a gel/shampoo product provided. We found ants in / around the bathroom sink.||Breakfast served several nice sweet cakes, and a basic cheese and italian cold cuts. Unfortunately the bread and croissants were stale. It might help to provide fresh, uncut bread so guests can slice only what they need. Additionally, offering more than one type of bread would be very nice. The croissants, had a chocolate filling. Eggs are available and prepared fresh upon request, which was a very nice touch.||Casa Fabbrini is a decent option for a B&B, but for the price we paid, the overall value is lacking. It gives the impression that corners are being cut when it comes to quality.

Great location. Quiet and comfortable. Great service. Carl and Gary provided an excellent all around experience for us. Freshly baked cakes and pastries with cappuccino each morning. Enjoyed going upstairs to the kitchen each night and going over the next day's itinerary while having another slice of the delicious ricotta cake! We would especially like to thank Gary for helping us get to a taxi when our driver for the airport didn't show. Bravo!!!!!!!

We have a favourite hotel in trastevere so we were hesitant to stay anywhere else in Rome. Let me tell you….this place may be our new favourite!!!! The staff are FANtastic especially Julius. Nothing is too much to ask. Our room was at the very top and exactly as depicted. Extremely clean! If stairs are an issue you may want to replace think booking this hotel. Not an issue for us. Breakfast was adorable and Julius offered to make us eggs as well. The front desk is not staffed 24/7 but they have a code to get in and 3 emergency numbers if you have any issues. Amazing location close to everything. We will be back!!

We had a lovely stay at Casa Fabbrini in Rome, September 2024. The location was perfect for walking and our room was beautiful and well equipped. Enjoyed delicious breakfast in the beautiful kitchen we felt truly at home at Casa Fabbrini. Our only issue during our stay was transportation to the Termini station. Although we asked to have transportation arranged the day before, a taxi was not scheduled and we were unable to get a taxi or Uber for 45 minutes causing us to miss our train and forfeit premium seats. We had to buy new tickets.

We had a great stay at Casa Fabbrini. Very comfortable with a lovely, helpful team looking after us. Breakfast was a perfect way to start each day. Very well located for walking the streets of Rome!

Very expensive for what it is and we were expecting more as the website boasts some wonderful photos of this property. It’s not until you arrive that you realise photos can be deceiving. This place has potential but needs a renovation job throughout. It is looking tired and for 300 euros a night you expect more from a place that could have a lot of charm and character. We stayed at the top of the house in the room with the balcony on the roof. The outdoor furniture was so rusty and so uncomfortable to sit, it really needed updating and to made to feel a bit more luxurious and indulgent! The shower head needed descaling as the water came out in all different directions and the shower tray filled up with water after 2 minutes into showering, so it was blocked. The toilet-brush was rusty and dirty, this doesn’t cost much to update, it was a bit unacceptable actually. No matter how long I spent in that bathroom I didn’t feel clean. It also wasn’t ideal to hear the staff just below us prepare breakfast from 6am, not really what you want when you’re on holiday along with the smell of a fry-up wafting up to your room. The staff in general were pleasant but very absent, you are left entirely to your own devices which can be great don’t get me wrong, but if you need a taxi, a recommendation or a bit more of a hands on concierge this place isn’t for you. The location is admittedly great if you want some peace from the bustle of the city, but the owners need to throw a fair amount of money at this place, especially in the hallways, bedrooms and bathrooms.

This had strong potential to be a 5/5. It’s in an amazing location, has loads of character and friendly polite staff. The breakfast and all day coffee & homemade cake is a really nice touch. However, we were in the top floor room, which only has thin light curtains and gets very bright so we were awake from 6am every day which isn’t much fun on holiday! In addition the terrace door did not lock - I complained about this 3 times as I felt uncomfortable having it unlocked at night and when were out, but nothing was fixed. It might be top floor but it’s still connected to other properties. ||If these things were sorted I’d recommend and return to this hotel, as otherwise it was lovely. ||It was also unclear that we would be charged 50 euros for late check in at 11pm - we did arrange this in advance and the email said we would need to pay 50 euros if we were after midnight. But we weren’t and were charged anyway.

It was a 2 days trip to visit Rome from a very well located place. We were not disapointed. The room had a beautiful decoration. The cleaning was very efficient and the area around the b and b was very safe and welcoming.
