The first indication that this hotel was no good was in the taxi on the way to the hotel when the driver said I must have paid a very cheap price to book here...When i arrived i was somewhat worried about the location. There is absolutely nothing around the area still open, everything has been shut down and there was... more

We stayed there for 4 nights and we were satisfied.The room was air conditioned, nice and clean, towels were changed every day.The nearest metro was a bit too far, but there were many bus lines constantly passing nearby. more

My husband and I - an adult couple - stayed at the Caravel Hotel for three nights during the week-end Bruce Springsteen held his concert in Rome, 19th July 2009. We found it quite all right to stay there. The nearest metro was a bit too far, but there were many bus lines constantly passing nearby (30, 130, 714, 715),... more

We stayed for 6 nites. It was adequet. Which is fine with us because we only sleep here. The location was good, we caught the bus about a 100 yards away and it took us just about anywhere we wanted. Take the 714 to Termini Station or the 30 express goes to the Vatican. Don't expect the bus drivers to... more

We stayed for two nights at the Caravel as a part of a Cosmos tour to Italy & Greece. Overall its a decent pick for the location and proximity to the Colosseum and (25 minutes away by bus) Pantheon, Spanish steps and Trevi Fountain. Expect this hotel to be somewhat like a Days Inn or Howard Johnson. Go here if... more

We stayed here on the first leg of our Cosmos tour to Rome. The room was extremely tiny and very basic. The room wasn't the cleanest or the most comfortable, just very basic. There was quite a bit of noise from our neighbours. Sadly, the lady in the reception wasn't so helpful in helping us find our way around Rome,... more

Ive just stayed at the caravel for 3 days whilst attending Rome for the Champions League Final. The hotel is situated about a 30 - 45 minute walk south of the Collosseum. First impressions when I arrived was okay. The reception staff were very helpful and I stayed on the 7th floor in a twin bedded room with my son.... more

We stayed 2 nights at the hotel whilst sightseeing Rome. Though located about 30 minutes' drive from the city centre (rail terminus -The Termini), it is well connected to it by bus, metro and taxi. The Catacombs, a minor tourist attraction is within walking distance of the hotel. The staff were friendly and helpful. The hotel has internet facility for... more

I stayed at the Caravel as part of a Cosmos tour last month. I can sleep just about anywhere, even inside a car, but this hotel gave me the CREEPS!!!! The lobby looks descent but I felt as if I was transformed back to an apartment I lived in in the Czech Republic 15 years ago! Musty, old smell,constant noise... more

The easiest way to get her is to take the train from Leonardo airport to Ostensia station 5.5 eurofrom there it is a 10 minute walk or you can catch the 715 bus from out side the station. This bus also takes you into central Rome (Teatro Marcello) from the other side of the road from the hotel. The hotel... more
