The location of this hotel is excellent. However, the terrible front desk service from every clerk (with the exception of one) made this hotel stay very painful. We attempted to be pleasant, but it got us nowhere. We weren't asking for anything special . . . just the essentials and it was so painful for the staff to help us.... More

The service of Hotel Arenula was not existing. We had to decide a day in advance when we wanted our breakfast the next morning. There are 4 turns for having breakfast: from 7-7.30, 7.40-8.10, 8.20-8.50 and finally 9-9.30. And you are only allowed to stay for 30 munutes. With only one man to clean the tables, bring the coffee and... More

This is a place to stay if you just want somewhere to sleep, shower and leave your belongings. If you plan to spend any time in the hotel, then dont stay here. It was clean, basic and close to all you'll want to see, including the Forums and colosseum. Its a walk to the vatican city too. In fact, its... More

We have stayed several times since 2006 at this basic 2 star hotel situated in an area where you can walk to all sites in central historical Rome. The rooms are clean and simple, the beds can be some hard, but it's ok. Their breakfast is good, with fresh rolls and croisants, as well as lots of realy good coffee.... More

My mom and I got a really good deal at this hotel on the internet, so I don't have too many complaints. The stairways are very white and pretty - which you notice because there isn't an elevator (so try to get on a lower floor if you don't want to or can't trek up too many stairs). We had... More

clean, great location, very nice breakfast i enjoyed this place because of the location More

This was a nice hotel with a central location. Most activites can be reached by walking. It isn't all that close to a train stop so I would suggest a cab ride. No elevator. They let us leave our bag before check in and after check out which was nice. Hotel was clean and fresh looking. Breakfast had pastry but... More

Great location, good price. All we needed was a bed and bathroom, so this worked. The bed was actually two twins pushed together, but they were fine. We didn't have breakfast there so I can't comment on that. More
