Point is that we'd have a better chance at an upgrade at Waldorf vs. Aleph, and even if we still stay in our base room at Waldorf, it'll be significantly bigger than the Aleph base room.
I understand that the Waldorf is about an hour walk from central Rome (we are in our late 20s and enjoy exercising), but has anyone stayed at both Aleph and Waldorf and prefer one to the other? I don't mind being outside of Rome (we are moving to the St. Regis on Friday evening), so it's just for one night and it may be nice to have a big relaxing room after a long trip from SFO.
Thoughts on Aleph vs. Waldorf?
I am on the same page as you. Currently booked two nights at Aleph. Was planned to book one night at Aleph and the other at Waldorf... I hope to see your report once you are back. Thank you.
