The G-Rough, Rome nearby also charges similar rate per night but its base room it's a suite.

I do have a credit card certificate that I can use one night at the Le Meridien but I wonder if it makes sense and just use cash rate at the G-Rough. Anybody knows if the rate will drop when the dates approach or September is considered a peak travel month?
Can you put a refundable rate on hold? That’s the highest I’ve seen it... and I’d stay at the G-Rough if rates end up being comparable. It seems very early to book.
