I stayed in this hotel for 3 nights as part of a 2 week trip for our anniversary. I have been to Italy several times and I always like to stay near the Campo dei Fiori, but I wanted to try a new hotel since my last one left a lot to be desired. For the most part, I found... more

This hotel is your basic hotel recommended by Rick Steves. Location was excellent. Rooms were clean, but shower was small. This is pretty much the norm in Europe though and I am pleasantly surprised whenever I do get a bigger shower. Service was so so, depending on who was at the reception desk at the time. Breakfast was decent. If... more

Good location, but walls are paper thin, and the water pipes regularly and loudly proclaimed someone above had either flushed the toilet or was taking a shower. Fairly helpful staff. more

Although the location of Hotel Smeraldo IS great, we dubbed this hotel "Hotel Smells Awful." The staff was very indifferent, our room was VERY small and smelled bad (they don't have non-smoking rooms). The plus was because we really did not want to be in our room at all, we spent much more time seeing the sights than we might... more

While the hotel is in a great location and probably a good value considering Rome is expensive, I would probably not stay there again. The rooms were clean but the shower situation was a problem. Our first 2 nights we were in a room with a shower so tiny that even a petite person such as myself could barely fit.... more

We just got back from a week at this hotel. The location couldn’t be beat for the price, near the Campo di Fiori and a ton of great restaurants. We could walk everywhere: Pantheon/Piazza Navona (5 min), Trevi Fountain (10-15 min), St. Peters (20 min), the Coliseum/Forum (20 min), even the Borghese Gallery (40 min). The hotel itself is missing... more

My girlfriend and I spent 3 nights at this hotel earlier this month. The hotel is clean and the rooms are adequate although the bathrooms are a little on the small side. Where they let themselves down is on the service. It's not that they are especially rude but the staff certainly seem to be indifferent about their guests. On... more

This hotel is situated close to the Campo di'Fiore, making it a great location for accessing all the sights in Rome. The hotel itself is lacking in ambiance and is a bit out of date. The room size is adequate, but the bathrooms are cramped and hot water is not always available. Liked best: location, value Liked least: old bedding,... more

We stayed at the Hotel Smeraldo for 8 nights during Christmas/New Year's holiday. We arrived in the morning after an overnight flight and were fortunate to be able to check in to our room right away (10am). Not sure if this is typical since it was the day after Christmas. We were in a double room which I would describe... more

We enjoyed our 5 day stay at Hotel Smeraldo. It's location is great. The breakfasts were good. Airport pickup went well. Room was tiny, roof terrace was a disappointment. We would stay there again. more
