I booked this hotel for the price but slightly misjudged the distance from the town centre, after walking it a couple of times we switched to public transport and either got the No 40 bus from the nearby bus station outside Stazione Termini or the tube to Coliseum from the Metro station behind the hotel, both of these journeys only...

The place was decent. Location is not bad - but also not the greatest. Breakfast was buffet style and pretty good. Coming home after dark can be a wee bit sketchy, as this is the central train station area, but this is to be expected. We saw a few riot police vans idling around the area when we were coming...

If you are looking for luxury or have really high expectations, don't stay here. However, if you are looking for a great value and want clean rooms then this is a great place. Our room was very large compared to most European hotels, including the bathroom. It was also very clean. The location is OK. It is very close to... More

Great value for money. We stayed in the main building so no problems getting in & out. Fab bar literally opposite the hotel entrance. Shower was a bit feeble, but lovely spacious room. Mattress a little hard for us but that's because we're used to a Tempur mattress at home! There is access to a lovely roof top terrace. If... More

Bizarre arrangement with second building 300m away (if you are allocated a room there), though reception were helpful in showing me the way. Entering/exiting room at any time of day involved negotiating three locked doors, each with its own quirk. Spacious room at the expense of a private bathroom, however with two shared bathrooms between a small number of rooms... More

A lovely man was standing on the platform at the Termini when we got in from Paris, he asked us if we were looking for accommodation, we were a bit dubious, but he convinced us to check out the Hotel des Artistes, it was only a very short walk from the station, he guided us there, when we got there...

Ok - as others have said great vale for the money. If you are looking for an honest hotel with access to bus and metro services great choice. This is not your pampering hotel, it provides an clean room and good breakfast. Quick tip ask for room facing the courtyard, businesses open at 6AM or so on the street side.... More

I stayed here for 3 nights. The staff were very helpful and speak very good English. The rooms are small but very clean. We walked all over Rome from the hotel. It takes around 20-30 minutes to walk to most main sites. This lets you see other bits of Rome as you walk around the city. The metro is less... More
