Dirty rooms. Lights that would not turn off. Trapped in malfunctioning elevator for 30min. Broken shower stall that was dangerous getting in & out. Breakfast was day old bread & salami slices. Sheets & towels were just put back wet & dirty day after day. I felt like I was being punished by the meeting organizers who put us there.... more

Last minute shows it's a 3 stars hotel, and the banners inside the hotel shows 2 stars category. But I would hardly give it ONE star, Consider this crappy accomodation as a Hostal, not a Hotel. The people there are nice, but It's a bit ruined. more

I am a person that can usually handle bad hotel stays. This hotel was just not for us. We were on our honeymoon and we had to book a room at the last minute. This was the only reasonable priced room we could find. But wow, what a mistake. Here is a list: Unpainted, cracked walls. The beds were plain... more

Thought this hotel offered an OK stay in a quiet part of Rome, but actually it is located under a inflight route to the airport, which means that you could face quite a lot of noise. Even though the hotel has a 2 star rating, the price of EUR120 for a double room is really excessive for the standard you... more

Accommodation was booked by travel agent who had checked out booklet of recommended hotels by large travel association. The room was dark with inadequate lighting and faced onto the busy street. It was hot but if the door to outside was open, the noise made it impossible to sleep. The bathroom was old and the shower was dangerous (slippery) .... more

I have just returned from 5 days in Rome staying at the Hotel Athena. I just wanted to refute the awful review that on this site. The hotel was clean and tidy, the rooms were small, but perfectly adequate. The staff were delightful, friendly and most helpful and were able to recommend places to eat nearby. They gave us maps... more

The employees are great so I found myself apologizing for reporting that there were problems with the rooms I was given. The shower water did not drain and there were problems with the sewage because occasionally there would be loud gurgling in the commode and sink and then it would smell very bad in the first room. The second room... more

I can't believe the reviewer who said it was a rip-off stayed at the same place. Sure it wasn't the Hilton, but it didn't charge Hilton prices! My son and I stayed there April 2004 for 10 days and I can't praise the hotel enough. Breakfasts were huge - self help and relaxed. The woman in charge of the dining... more

Don’t believe what you read about the Hotel Athena Rome (that is if it says anything good). We went there in July 2004 and it nearly spoilt our nice holiday in Italy. We read that it was a nice 3 star hotel near the centre of Rome and we went for it. We found something that we still can’t believe.... more
