My wife and I (in our mid-20's) stayed here for two nights en-route from our wedding in sorrento to catch a cruise in civitaveccia for our honeymoon. As it was our first time in rome we wanted somewhere that was central and affordable. The Rex did not dissapoint...bar the vatican (10mins / 8 euro by taxi) everything in the city... more

The Big plus at the Rex is the Staff, they were so friendly and helpful and they were very very approachable for assistance. Our room smelt like smoke.. or smoke that has tried to be covered up, so a musty smoke room hehe You only notice the smell when you first walk in, after 10 minutes or so you get... more

Nice hotel, conveniently 5 minutes walk from the Termini rail station. There is a metro stops close by for easy access across the city. We stayed for 3 nights at the end of July '09, and found it to be an easy hotel to reach following our transfer from the airport to the Termini. It is also not too far... more

Stayed for 2 nights at Hotel Rex. We have 3 children, and booked well in advance. For a rather low price through hotels.com, we got the perfect room for us - in fact, the best we've ever got anywhere, one that really suited our needs. The room was large, a 2-room apartment. Each of our children had a proper bed,... more

The only problems we had were the AC did not cool the room and the refrigerator in the room did not keep anything cold. I asked 3 times for someone to fix the frig and it did not happen. I... more

After reading the reviews I decided to book a hotel for our 3 night stay in Rome. Guys, I really can not understand why this hotel is rated this high on tripadvisor. Rooms with one bed are small, dark, smelly. Bathrooms do not look clean. Rooms with two beds (big bed and a small bed) have a 1960s computer in... more

I stayed at the Rex in July for a weekend break in Rome. I read the reviews on here and decided to book. The reception was friendly and we had someone take our luggage to our room. The rooms were bit on the small side and the view wasn't the best but the bathroom was large. The location of the... more

We stayed for 3 nights, very good service, very friendly people. This is just the kind of hotel you want to stay in when traveling with your family. more

The concierge was fabulous, the room was clean and huge by European standards. Even big for American standards. The full breakfast was the best we've had anywhere, and the hotel is very convenient to the train station and METRO rail (5 mins walk). We would stay here again in a heartbeat it was a wonderful hotel! Restaurants nearby! Rooms came... more
