Rough Guide
"The Raphaël is a mix of plush traditional style – antiques and rich colours – and sleek contemporary furnishings by American architect Richard Meier."
Michelin Guide
"With its collection of porcelain, antiquarian artifacts and sculptures by famous artists, the entrance to this hotel resembles a museum. The recently renovated guestrooms are modern in style."
Travel + Leisure
"A favorite of Italian politicians, the ivy-covered Hotel Raphael is located just outside the Piazza Navona, within walking distance of the Pantheon and Spanish Steps."

DK Eyewitness
"A lovely burnt-sienna palazzo, strewn with ivy and fairylights just off the Piazza, Raphael is romantic and stylish."
Time Out
"This ivy-draped palazzo in a picturesque square is deservedly popular, particularly with politicians (it's close to the Senate)."
