  We love the Hotel Lord Byron! We have stayed here for 22 years and it never disappoints! The location, friendly staff and service keep us coming back. It is a very quiet oasis in a crowded city.

  Lord Byron Hotel - A Step Too Far ?

  My wife and I stayed two nights at this hotel as part of a holiday package. The hotel is located in an affluent residential part of Rome and is a fair distance from the normal sightseeing attractions. The location was not an issue for us as we had already visited Rome on numerous occasions. We checked in at 10.30am and were told that our room would be available at 2.00pm. The receptionist provided the various check-in guests with a tourist map and used a pen to highlight Rome's main tourist spots. I asked him to highlight the hotel's location but it wasn't within the boundaries of the tourist map ? This hotel has kerb appeal and is a grand, classical example of a converted patrician villa. Access to the hotel is by 13 (unlucky for some) steps which are fairly steep. We decided to spend the time until 2.00pm getting our bearings and familiarising ourselves with the area. We are elderly and enjoy walking on level surfaces as my wife can find stairs a bit of a challenge. We walked to Bioparca di Roma which houses the main zoo in Rome and spent some time at the cafe near the zoo entrance enjoying two cappuccinos and and two large danish pastries for the princely sum of 6 euros 60 cents. We returned to the hotel after 2.00pm and my wife unfortunately tripped on the final entrance step and fell into the reception area on level 2. The staff were attentive and provided an ice pack after which the male receptionist advised that our room was ready and we should follow him. We were required to firstly take an elevator ride then be confronted by another set of internal stairs to access the allocated room. I advised the receptionist that the additional stairs were a potential hazard for my wife and could we get a more accessible room. His immediate response was to tell me that the hotel was fully booked. After a short time in this room I could see that my wife was still distressed and I again approached the receptionist and reasoned with him that although I knew that the hotel was full, surely as the time was 2.30pm not all guests have arrived and could he look again at switching our room for one which did not involve further internal stairs. He said to leave the matter with him and eventually we were moved to room 204 which is level with the reception area. We stuck with this room although there were a few niggles. There was a loose toilet seat and a bathroom door which was warped and did not close. The bathroom was plush Italian marble with a few unsightly brown stains which is natural oxidation where water lies. The shower (weak) is over the bath and was a no no for my wife. Following the accident we decided to eat in the hotel and ordered room service of a shared hot pizza and lukewarm french fries and a beer for 48 euros. The following morning we took the elevator to level 0 for the included breakfast to be met by another flight of internal stairs to access the breakfast/restaurant area. The breakfast was adequate. We spent the remainder of the day at the zoo and it is well worth a visit. The Lord Byron hotel is a classic, clean, well staffed hotel which will suit the majority of guests but for those guests with mobility/accessible issues it might prove to be a step too far.
