This place was pretty decent all this considered. Super convenient location next to the Termini and metro stop. The room was clean with a huge window that opened up on the street. Traffic noise was a bit loud but other than that no complaints at all. Rome is an expensive city so this place was a good, cheap find. Will... More

You're likely looking at this hotel because: 1) it's cheap; and 2) it's next to the train station. Those are it's only good points. The hotel is barely one star. The room was clean, but really run down: the beds sagged, the sheets had holes and stains, the shower door didn't close properly, the shower ran out of hot water,... More

We have stayed at Hotel Urbis 3 times over the years and while it was acceptable the first time in 1998 it has deteriorated substantially since then. There seems to have been little or no maintenance over the years and the last visit was really horrifying. At one point we came back to a group of junkies from the nearby... More

Small compact room, about 18 inches to 2ft around bed and very small shower / toilet room. Shower rail was broken so nowhere for shower head to be placed. Extractor fan and not been cleaned in years. Behind the bathroom door was an array of body hair and a few bugs. Bedding was clean. Windows opened but the shutter on... More

i stayed in the hotel urbis for 4 nights at the start of May and i would plead with travelers thinking of spending their hard earned money, Dont do it. My first impressions were good, it was close to the main train station, Termini, easy enough to find, then the problems started. We were in the room closest to reception,... More

It was a very cheap hotel. We paid about 300 euro for the room for 7 nights. Located in the center of the city. The Papal Basilica of Saint Peter, Coloseum and other interesting ancient ruins and monuments are max 5 km from the hotel. The Marghera street is very noisy even after midnight. Our room was quite clean. The... More

I read the reviews for Hotel Urbis and thought people who wrote them were thin skinned. I thought it did not sound so bad. After all, I am from a third world country and Americans are a little spoiled, right? Wrong! This hotel was the most horrible experience we had. First, the furniture's upholstery was ripped in many places; the... More

We booked this hotel through a website that included air fare and hotel. The slogan of the hotel is: "Hotel Urbis... your friendly hotel in Rome". Honestly, that´s a lie!. The recepcionists are always grumpy and they were actualy never attentive with us. The room was okay. The sheets were clean, but we did not have a bathroom inside our... More

We arrived at the Hotel Urbis, to find that our room had been given to someone else, eventhough we saw our name on the book. So we were told we had to upgrade to another room and pay €20 extra per night. I questioned this with the receptionist as it wasn't my fault. His reply was ''What choice do you... More
