Not a 4 star.
An average hotel. Definitely not on par with 4 star hotels. Tiny rooms and bathrooms didn’t have good lighting, or space for toiletries. Beds seemed old and worn. The hotel could use an upgrade. The positives: Great location and lovely staff. Breakfast was very good.

Had a lovely three night break in Rome. Stayed at The Guardian Hotel polite smiley receptionist greeted us on arrival & explained everything. Staff in the breakfast room & rooftop bar were all polite & helpful Clean room with everything provided. A little out of town but still walkable, perfect break.

The hotel is very nice and breakfast was wonderful. Staff and room great. The property was fae from Rome attractions. 30 min walk to Trevi and all the shopping. It was near the train station and metro, but still 15 min walk. Very nice restaurants around the corner but super quiet and nothing to do in the immediate area. Price was high at close to $400 a night. Not even a free water in room.

I did not have a positive experience during my stay. The hotel is in a great location but expensive for what you get in return. A personal item was also stolen from my room while I was visiting. The rooms are small. The bathroom very small. The shower is tiny. The hallways throughout the hotel are very narrow so you can get blocked in easily with staff when they are walking by with equipment. There is also constant banging and noise throughout the small hotel. Also, a staff member (maid?) took my clothes steamer from my room when they entered and cleaned my room. The maid staff entered my room even though I had the do not disturb sign on the door handle. I reported this to the front desk staff but they didn't seem to care. I WOULD NOT stay here again.

My wife and I enjoyed our stay at The Guardian. The hotel is centrally located and walkable to the train station and has an amazing rooftop with a great view. Perfect place for a drink after a day of exploring the city. The staff are also very friendly and took great care of us during our stay.

Overall the property was good for our 3 night stay to tour Rome. From Termini it was about a 20 min walk with our rolling luggage (recommendation: w/luggage, grab a taxi). We were about a 10 min walk to the Metro (Castro Pretorio) which rapidly gets you to the sites. We took Uber and taxi if we needed to be somewhere early (Vatican for a 07:30 tour) or were trying to reach an area not as convenient by train alone (Trastevere, Campo di Fiore, Jewish Ghetto, etc). As far as the hotel, the rooms were very tight but from what I understand that is pretty standard at this price point and area. A/C was hit or miss. Some nights it worked too good and some nights wasn’t sure if it was even on. Reception staff was excellent. Breakfast spread was plentiful and delicious. Again, for 2-3 nights this place will work. If longer, might want to stay closer to the tourist sites.

Excellent location in a nice quiet area, roof top bar was great, if not a touch expensive perhaps, bed was very very comfy, room was slightly on the small side and the shower was a bit hit and miss, but lovely and clean.
