We booked after reading favourable reviews and were not disappointed! The Columbia was even better than we had hoped it would be. Our room was large, comfortable and spotlessly clean. Service was unfailingly cheerful and professional -- from reception, restaurant and housekeeping staff alike. Everyone went out of their way to be friendly and helpful, and we can't thank them... more

Very peacefull Hotel, great breakfast, rooms clean. In a great location, for the Termini, and close to shops. loads of restaurants within walking distance.

This was a hotel my sister-in-law and I chose out of a recommendation in the New York Times. We were very happy with the choice. Minutes walk from the Colloseum and Roman Forum and a short ride to many other beautiful Roman sights, this was the perfect location. The room was comfortable and just what we needed after a long... more

Ok hotel very close to the train station. Lots of restaurants and shopping nearby. Close to all the major attractions...Breakfast is so so..Customer service is good.. However, the rooms are not nice.
