After our less-than-stellar experience as "first class" (yeah, right, sure) passengers on the night train from Paris to Rome, this hotel came as a huge surprise. The room was gorgeous and comfortable, and the staff was very friendly and helpful. Yes, it's in a rundown part of town and there are lots of people living there who do not appear... More

The hotel has a nice feel once you enter the lobby. The rooms are small by U.S. standards, but normal for European. The bed was not comfortable by any standard and the shower stall was quite small, with intermittent hot water and low water pressure. As a "homebase" for touring Rome, it worked well for our visit. If you rely... More

This hotel was one of the best on our 10 day tour. We were assigned a "superior" room by luck and it was great. A corner room with front and side windows and a full bathroom that included a jacuzzi tub and plenty of room. What a releif from the stall showers that you could hardly turn around in. The... More

I used the Best Western Ambra Palace Hotel as my home base when visiting Rome and couldn't have made a better choice! As a woman traveling by herself, this is a bold statement for me to make. The staff couldn't have been nicer and more informative, the room was clean and perfect for my needs, and the food was amazing!... More

Room cosy with a large bed and well equipped, although the carpet could do with being replaced and the wallpaper above the tv area was thick with dust, never sorted out how to work the air con. Bathroom had a very small shower cubicle with doors which had to be opened in a particular way so as they would not... More

After a long flight from Tasmania to Rome on the 13th Sept 2011 the Ambra Palace was a relief. The front desk staff were welcoming and very helpful when asked about the Metro and location of buses etc. The breakfast was more than adequate and varied daily with a good selection for vegetarians. Special mention must go to Senore Diego... More

We were disappointed in this Bestwestern hotel. We always stay at a B/W when in Rome, but this one was a mistake. Our room was very small and the shower door came off in my hands. Had to get dressed and call to have it fixed. The nieghborhood was in the Indian area of the city with many wholesale trinket... More

We completed a 10 day, 3 city tour through Italy and this hotel was great. Our check-in went smoothly, our room was clean, fresh and large. The staff went out of their way to answer all questions about getting around Rome (our first visit to Europe). The breakfast buffet was fantastic and certain to please anyone. The area around the...

In Rome myself and my wife stayed at this hotel and I find the hotel good. Especially the staff are very friendly and the room was also good. The only down point was shower was small and taking bath was a difficult. The location of the hotel was good very close to the train station and metro is right behind... More
