This overly priced apartment hotel is not worth the money. The bed was a little hard. I dont think your ribs are suppose to hurt when you breathe while laying on the bed. Pillows were especially hard. Asked for new pillow but the replacement provided by management was even harder. When I asked to switch rooms, the staff told me... More

We stayed 10 days in the Royal Palatino Suite. This was a nice two bedroom suite with a small sit out balcony. Good view . The hotel is located just off the main road, a short walk from a major bus stop and a walking distance from the Corso.The location is picturesque in a old Rome kind of way with... More

We enjoyed 5 nights here. It is a very modern hotel hidden behind and antique facade. We booked a "deluxe" room with breakfast using the hotel website. Our room was actually a suite with kitchenette, king bed, balcony with a beautiful garden view, and a great modern bath. All the staff we encountered were lovely especially the lady who managed...

The hotel is situated very conveniently in some ways in the heart of ancient Rome. Outside is an early 4th century Roman arch, and from the front door you can see ruins on the Palatine Hill and some early temples in the other direction. For very noisy Rome, the location is extremely quiet, especially considering there is a busy road... More

The Palazzo al Velabro provides a range of recently renovated apartments in an unrivalled setting overlooking the Palatine and the Forum Boarium. Some apartments have balconies overlooking the Palatine with magnificent views. So many ancient, early Christian and Jewish monuments can be seen within strolling distance in any direction. The staff are friendly, long-serving and always helpful. More

From a Time Share purchase that required the usual yearly fee, plus a sur charge of another $250.00 (US), We expected something more than a cloth covered sheet of plywood for a bed. The location was great, however, two nights of backache and numbness, was worth leaving the place! Especially when the night desk, told us to "move out if... More

That is the common refrain for this aparthotel. The location is good in terms of convenience for sight-seeing and there is a certain aura about staying so close to the forum et al (walking past the forum every night on your way home!). It's about 10 minutes walk from the nearest metro station (Circus Maximus) but that's as much to... More

A modernised building several hundred years old which is converted into suites. Walking distance (About 1/2 a mile) from the forum and Collosseum. There are a couple of restaurants within about 150yds. Internet access and Wifi is available for a small fee. Bathrooms look a bit chewed as they have used chipboard which has soaked up the moisture and split... More

Just back from 5 days at the hotel. Location could not be better for the ancient attractions. I must admit I was tentative in booking this as some previous 'Trip Advisor' comments were not positive. However I can say that the staff were excellent, nothing was a problem from daily checking the up to date weather, directions to restaurants etc.... More
