Regarding the new RF in Rome, this has been discussed for a while now in the IC forum. While getting rid of all the small rooms is a great idea, this hotel had some very nice and spacious luxury suites already and was a great hotel already IMHO. I stayed there many times over the years. So it's not really an addition to the Rome scene. The only significant difference is the removal of the small rooms and probably no backpacker guests staying on points.
