Hotel Hiberia
Monti
Sue says “In late Nov 2022, my friends and I stayed a week at a small 3-star hotel in Rome near Piazza Quinerale on Via XXIV Maggio. Hotel Hiberia was clean and comfortable, with easy, walkable access to many of Rome’s landmarks. But the nicest thing we found was the attached (off the hotel lobby) Ristorante Petrucci. As we were finishing our meal out came the fellow from the kitchen (he made pizzas on Tuesday & Thursday evenings) who began singing opera for about 20 minutes… what a treat! And every dish we had, including the arosto carciofi (roasted artichokes) and our nightly 2 bottles of Prosecco made our stay even more delightful!”
