We stayed at this hotel twice - once for a stopover and the second time for four nights. We were very unhappy with both experiences. The hotel staff at reception were rude and very unhelpful. The bed for our first night was terrible - it was lumpy and uneven (and very small). The shower heat was uneven (either warm or... more

This hotel in Rome is the best bang for your buck going. If you like to walk it is within a long walking distance of the downtown sites. It is located right off a subway line, 1 block. It was by far the best value I found for Rome. The rooms were so clean, nice and modern. The breakfast was... more

I stayed there for 3 nights with my wife and experience was not good. May be because I have been staying in marriotte and other good hotels. But if you get a deal very cheap and you do not bother about the room and tidyness and there is no harm in staying there. We had problem with bath tub and... more

Steer clear of the 3 night stay special offer. They are renovating, so the deal is on. The rooms are the size of a toilet, and the bed is uncomfortable. Then again its a bed to collapse in after a long day, but the luke warm showers were dissapointing. The location is good, its away from the husstle and bustle,... more

This was the second time me and spouse stayed at this hotel,for our second trip to Rome. They were renovating the hotel lobby/breakfast area, so this was a surprise to us that the entrance was moved next door. Breakfast is free at a restaurant across the street, which is great value (normally the hotel would serve breakfast but because of... more

Absolute crap....spoiled my entire Roman experience!!! Never again....wouldn't even rate it a one star! more

Not a bad location quite close to the station. First room we were given had no safe so Hotel gave us an upgrade to a much nicer room with little fuss. Friendly enough staff,spoke good English and arranged Opera tickets for us. In my opinion Rome is a City with two sides,History rich with great culture, but struggles when striking... more

The cleanliness and comfort of the Villafranca were wonderful to come back to after busy and often exhausting days of sightseeing in Rome.The rooms are certainly "European" (re: small), yet very clean (cleaned each day of our stay and equipped w/bath and spa toiletries) and quiet.The location of the hotel, however, was a blessing and a curse--It is not centrally... more

Just returned from 3 nights at this hotel. Whilst it's location is good (just 5 mins walk from Metro), my bf and I were less than impressed with everything else. Shower was unpredictable - sometimes lukewarm, sometimes freezing, but never hot; beds are hard making it uncomfortable to sleep; elevator is extremely tiny and slow; and the breakfast was poor... more
