The eight room types at Terrazza Urania share some basic amenities: private bathroom with toiletries, air conditioning, flat-screen TV with streaming services and a refrigerator. Sizes range from 20 to 30 sqm, with differences mainly in outdoor spaces and views: several rooms have a balcony or terrace with views of the city or the Tiber River, while the Standard versions do not have private outdoor space.
The two Junior Suites stand out for their larger layouts, with a sitting area separate from the sleeping area, a dining space and, in one case, a coffee machine in the room. The Superior and Deluxe double rooms, while starting from smaller sizes, often offer a balcony and river view, making them an intermediate choice between the Standard and the Junior Suite for those who want a panoramic view without giving up simplicity.
A 20 sqm Superior Double Room with views of the city and a landmark, featuring air conditioning, a flat-screen TV and a private bathroom. The large double bed and dining area make it comfortable for a couple’s stay, though it has no private outdoor space such as a balcony or terrace.
The Deluxe Double Room, 25 sqm, adds a balcony with views of the city and the Tiber River to the standard amenities, ideal for those who want to look out over Rome from their own room. Air conditioning, a flat-screen TV and a private bathroom complete the accommodation.
The 30 sqm Junior Suite is the largest room type at the property: a sitting area separate from the sleeping area, a dining space, a coffee machine and a private terrace with city views. The private bathroom features a shower and toiletries.
This second Superior Double Room, also 20 sqm, differs from the first thanks to its balcony with views of the city and the Tiber River, a plus for those who don’t want to give up an outdoor space even in the more compact size.
The Junior Suite with Terrace, 30 sqm, features the same separate sitting area and dining space as the standard Junior Suite, with the addition of a Tiber River view from its own private terrace, a detail that makes it the most panoramic choice among the suites.
The Standard Double Room, 20 sqm, is the simplest room type at the property: no balcony or terrace, but city and landmark views are still guaranteed, along with air conditioning and a private bathroom for an essential stay.
The Deluxe Double Room with Balcony, 25 sqm, offers a balcony with views of the city and the river, the same size as the Deluxe but with a view explicitly dedicated to the Tiber panorama, appreciated by those who prioritize the view.
The Double Room with Balcony, 20 sqm, is the only one among the more compact rooms to offer both city and river views from its own balcony, a balance between smaller size and a panoramic outlook over Rome.
