Personally, I always stay at Hotel Eden, few minutes from Trinità de’ Monti and Villa Borghese. It is much more than a luxury hotel, it is the “home”
The best one is DE RUSSIE in Via del Babbuino, you have every things by your hotel.
I would have a look at Hotel Inghilterra. It is right in the center below the Spanish steps so you do not have to spend a lot of time walking up the hill!. Just make sure you get one of the new rooms. I have seen them and they are beautiful.
I did not enjoy Hotel de Russie last time I was in Rome and I generally like Rocco Forte hotels.
Stay in any hotel near Via Veneto…. its a beatiful street, and its walking distance from the Fontana di Trevi, it has wonderful restaurants and bars, and its also very close to the Piazza di Spagna, where most of the shooping is.
I know a charming elegant B&B near the Spanish steps – Casa Howard.
I would have to recommend Hotel Hassler. Best concierge I have ever seen, will get you into whatever restaurant you want, the day of! Its right at the top of the spanish steps, which is the best area to stay, especially if you want to shop. The hotel has a great rooftop restaurant, and an awesome breakfast. I have also heard good things about De Russie.
