i think i read somewhere on this thread that full ra benefits would only be extended on the paid night & not on the free nights....can someone confirm this????
I can confirm that on the letter I was given at checkin it stated no benefits on awards.I have experienced it first had on my last 2 stays.
I think they will allow you the minibar on the paid night but def not on the award.they are very specific

I was just looking at this thread as I'm wanting to stay in Rome in October.

Last time I stayed there, 2 years ago, I booked a double room with an inner balcony and was upgraded (as an ambassador) to a junior suite with a huge terrace, which was exceptionally nice. It sounds like I was lucky, but I think I am likely to give it a go again. Either that or the Sofitel.

Isn't it the huge terrace that I can see ... from your room?

Just a quick Q- does this hotel allow you to store/leave your bags prior to check-in? My flight gets in at 9am and since I'm only a Plat, I doubt they would let me check-in early. Can I leave my bags somewhere before I check-in in the afternoon?

Yes certainly. This is a luxury hotel and has a very good bell staff.

I have never felt it was a LUXURY hotel.

To me this hotel is a two stars hotel occupied on a five star location.

I'd give it more than 2, and it's got a luxury like feel but agree it isn't 100% pure luxury.

I'm staying here in July this year, how far is the IC away from City Centre and is it close to the Hilton Garden Inn aswell.

It cannot be more central as IC De La Ville is up to the Spanish steps.

I have no idea where the Hilton Garden Inn is located, but a quick look ar Google maps will give you an answer.
