This hotel was moderately priced for a week in Rome and was within walking distance of everything. The Termini Train Station was 2 minutes, the Vatican 20 minutes, the Trevi Fountain, Piazza Navona and the Pantheon 15 minutes. The rooms are small (by American standards), but well eqipped. The breakfast buffet is good, with scrambled eggs every morning. Also a... More

Hotel's location is amazing since its 2 mins walk from the main train station that will take u to airport in 25 mins. 10 mins away from downtown (walking) and around 15-20 from Coloseum !! Central location, with lots of hotels around Friendly staff, and really AMAZING breakfast. The restaurant is not the best you can get. Really nice rooms... More

We stayed 4 nights, and felt secure and comfortable. This is a fairly impersonal hotel, where the staff did not speak unless spoken to, although they were helpful when requests were made. The breakfast buffet was excellent. Our room was a loft, with the king bed up the stairs from the sitting area and bathroom. Several good restaurants nearby. More

Our family stayed at the end of October. This hotel was great! We stayed in rooms 425 and 426. Very clean! Kids (almost 20 and 19) had a basic room with a beautiful bathroom. Our room was a corner room and very nice. Staff on the front desk was great especially Anna. The food was really good, even early in... More

...so easy to get to from Termini! Breakfast was decent. We were in a room with 2 singles- I would suggest requesting a room with a street view as our window opened up to the building backs and piping. The hotel was very clean and when our showerhead broke, the front desk had it fixed by the time we returned... More

The hotel is very well situated in Rome, very close to Termini Station and around 1 km to Colosseum, Imperial Forum and Campidoglio. Is easy to reach by foot from hotel to those places. The staff was very helpfull and the room ( especially no.741) was very nice decorated and the bathroom was beautiful. We spend the New Year Eve... More

Hotel has a good location, next to Termini Station, but not too close. It´s clean, the room and bathroom are realy big. Wi-fi is free, but it´s a little annoying because you have to change password every single day. Would only complain about breakfast: it´s very good if you wake up after 8:00am, but before 8:00 there´s no fruits, no... More

We enjoyed staying in this hotel and purchased it as a WOTIF bargain. It was above the standard we had used for the previous 9 weeks, so a luxurious refreshing end to to our Grand European Tour. Check-in however started on a sour note as we arrived on the train from Orvieto at 1PM and had dragged our bags the... More

We stayed for a week in this hotel. Breakfasts were good and so was the staff. The location is good if you are coming from Termini Station; it is only a five minute walk to the hotel. Room 141(our room) must have had recent water leaks because there was a strong mold smell and the wall paper was still damp... More

We just got back from staying 2 nights here. Overall the hotel was pleasant, well decorated, and clean. The location was very convenient to the Termni, however we felt that it was in a touristy part of town. It should be noted, and I am not sure why no one else has posted it, but it is an AFFILIATE of... More
