Why guests love itA mother and her adult daughter chose Albergo Etico Roma partly because it is an ethical, non-profit hotel, and partly for its spot near Piazza del Popolo. Their best moments came on the rooftop terrace in the golden hour, going over the day's walk while the surrounding Roman rooftops turned amber. Rooms were simple but cool and comfortable after hot walks along the Tridente streets. There is no bar or pool up there, just a calm place to sit.
