Palazzo Colonna - Galleria Colonna, Rome

The gallery is marvelous. It has a beautiful art collection. Everything was well organized and accessible. There were flowers all around, making the place look like people were living there. The staff goes above and beyond to make you feel welcome and help you understand what you see. They love what they're doing, and you can feel it. One particular member was astonishing, Brigida; when she saw my wife almost crying looking at the art pieces, she took the time to explain everything in that room like a premium guided tour. That made an unforgettable impression on me, my wife, and our daughter that will last forever. I recommend that when you are in Rome, take the time to visit the Colonna Gallery. We spent 5 hours and could spend a lot more.

The tour guide was very knowledgeable and kept us moving. The palazzo is filled with beautiful tapestries, statuary, and frescoes, so worth seeing. We went in July as part of the activities for a conference, so the entire City was hot and quite humid. Even with windows open, it was hot and somewhat stuffy.
