“Relais Santa Maria Maggiore, steps from its namesake basilica, impressed me with its historic setting and up-to-date conveniences like electronic window controls. Its location, near Termini Station, makes getting around Rome simple, while the immediate neighborhood maintains a quiet feel. I think the personalized service and unexpectedly spacious rooms make it a smart choice.”
