After long day of stroll on the streets of Rome Casa Howard welcomed us with comfortability and known Italian style. Once seen Casa Howard is not easily forgotten. The room where we were (Zebra room) is very eye-catching. The beds are perfect! We even try to find out which mattress they use. The view on the Sistina street was so... more

We booked Casa Howard through Chic Retreats who we have booked with before and were not disappointed. The rooms are delightful and we were looked after by Edgar who made our stay so comfortable and special. It is near the Spanish Steps so very central and I would recommend anyone to stay there. We had a wonderful time. more

We stayed at the Capo le Case property in the blue room for four nights in April. I LOVED this property, we had a huge room by Rome standards, which we were very surprised by. While our bathroom was down the hall, this did not bother us at all, and we are very picky about where we stay. Yes, the... more

A warm welcome from a Filipino butler, wonderful honey at breakfast, courageous interiors by a hip designer and entombed in mortuary-like silence might be among the selling points. But, as the marketing blurb boasts, this is NOT a hotel. No, it certainly isn't. The problem is that it isn't a private home either. Not by a long stretch. The property,... more

Good Points - design, location Bad Points - very noisey to the point of being uncomfortable - unhelpful and unpleasant manager (owner?) - very small room and bathroom I have stayed in hundreds of hotels/lodgings around the world (Europe, Asia, Pacific, USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand) and this is the most disappointing experience I have had. The manager of this... more

Just got back from a weekend in Rome staying in Capo le Case. We had a nice room (private bathroom, not all do), great location and Christine the housekeeper is very sweet. Fun and quirky place and I liked the concept of having your own keys etc, really feels like you a local! However what this place lacks is a... more

We were looking for a place in the heart of the Rome that had some style but not the pomp and circumstance of a major hotel. Casa Howard fit the bill. The "Flower Room" was well appointed with a heated floor in the bathroom which was key on a rainy March weekend. The staff was friendly and provided us with... more

A friend and I stayed at the via Capo le Case house for a few nights in mid October. The stay lived up to the "Casa Howard Concept" as per the website in that it was certainly more like staying in the spare bedroom at a friend's house than staying in a hotel: it was great to be staying somewhere... more

The real problem with Casa Howard seems to be the rather overbearing and somewhat bullying owner. Our travel agent had quoted a price with breakfast; apparently wrongly. No problem but it did lead to the owner turning up and asserting rather obnoxiously that she was not at fault and that breakfast was not included...OK.. no big deal although it seemed... more
