Also, decide what you might do in Rome, then use their map feature to see how far away things are.
Marriott removed all the reviews from their site.
They still list overall ratings on a 5 star scale.
OP, of the ones you listed, personally I would like the St. Regis as its very central, close to the Metro, and looks like a great hotel. Personally I love the area near the Pantheon, and might take a look at the Pantheon Iconic Rome Hotel, which isn't exactly a Marriott brand, but does allow using Marriott points to book. Looks like for a 5 night stay in mid-April its 100k Marriott points cheaper than the St. Regis.
PP here, as another PP said, these are all pretty close together, so there isn't a major difference in overall location. Will note that the Hotel Flora is very close to the Villa Borghese, which is a really beautiful place to just wander, and sit, along with visiting the Borghese Gallery, of course. Could be a nice amenity to visit/walk around daily.

It this a family trip? What are kids ages? Are you trying to book a larger room or suite?
I've stayed at both the Westin and St Regis and both are excellent hotels, though obviously the St Regis is a bit nicer. There's no significant difference between the two locations.
I'd probably go with whichever is the better points value, if there's availability. Rome is peak season around Easter, although who knows how covid is affecting that these days.

We'll be in Rome over spring break. DH has tons of Marriott points and we want to use those for our stay. Between St Regis, W, Westin, Grand Flora, which one would you recommend in terms of convenience to tourist spots, location etc
