The Major
A well-located boutique hotel steps from Santa Maria Maggiore, where spacious, spotlessly clean rooms with comfortable beds, a rooftop breakfast with sweeping views, and warmly attentive staff, Lou and the evening receptionist among them, make for a solid Roman base, though prospective guests would do well to avoid the second floor and request a room away from the fifth-floor restaurant if a quiet night matters to them.
