The classic room advertises a king size bed on Expedia but it is not a king size bed. Hotel is apparently aware of the issue but doesn’t notify you of the discrepancy until check in.

Hot water didn't kick in until the morning (we ended up taking a cold bath) but the upgraded room was very spacious and lovely, with a great view of the Basilica. Staff were friendly. Breakfast left something to be desired (no fresh fruit, offering was decent but not spectacular).

I loved my stay at The Major! I had to change my hotel plans last minute and was lucky to find a room here, and it ended up being better than I imagined. The hotel is just 10 minutes walking from Termini station, and well located within the city of Rome—I wish I had more time to explore! The rooftop bar was so relaxing and the breakfast was delicious. A lovely experience, all around.
