We just returned from our stay in Rome. I had booked a pricy hotel that we stayed at previously fearing the worst if I went with a cheaper place. At the last minute I took a chance and switched to the Augusta Lucilla Palace. We were not disappointed. 1st it's within 2 blocks of Termini so you can easily walk there saving taxi fare plus catching the metro to anywhere is so easy. It is mere blocks from Plaza Republicca, Santa Maria church, and the Agnes in Ectasy church. The ac is ice cold, the beds are memory foam, the pillows NOT hard, and the breakfast is good. The front desk could not have been more helpful. In short we saved $100 a night over the other hotel ($180)and were very pleased with the quality. The room and shower are standard for Europe, the price is not!!

This hotel was really very nice. It looked like it had just been recently renovated. The room was spacious and the bed was comfortable. The staff was friendly and very helpful. The location was good and close to train and metro stations. This made it really easy to get around. I would highly recommend this hotel.

Minutes away from the Termini station in Rome, great location to the metro, open top buses, and the colosseum. The room size is standard for Europe and the newly renovated rooms, were extremely clean. The bathroom was lovely and I agree that the shower stall is on the smaller side, however I live in the middle east and thats just the way the shower stalls are it seems. As americans we are so used to having so much more space. The space was not an issue by any means at all.
The staff was really very nice. I had not put the location on my map before the trip and then forgot to also put it on my paperwork. I had an "idea" of where the hotel was. I asked 3 people..one did not know, the second man at the barromeo hotel (what a nasty nasty man...) and then a man at the Saturnia ...he actually googled it for me and told me how to get there. Really nice thing to do. ... our first taste of Rome.
During our check in the staff told us that we could get reservations and ask them any questions. Which we did over the next few days and they were wonderful with the information.
The continental breakfast was fair, the coffee was not that great and the fruit was canned, yogurt came out of a machine. There was lots to choose from but it was fair...and I wish they had a coffee/tea service in the room...other than that ...it was really very nice, Very very very clean, which is a deal breaker for me.
we were in room 403 and there were restaurants below us. We could not really hear them except when the musicians came out and the singer...for their nightly trip from restaurant to restaurant. All in all it was a nice place to stay.
Thank you.
we had a nice stay.

We stayed for two nights at this recently renovated hotel which is deemed 4 stars but which is really a 3 star by North American standards. Our double room was quite small, with only a closet and a desk and chair besides the bed(see pictures). The bathroom was modern but the shower stall was very tight, and would pose a problem for a large person. One of the glass panes fell off the track the first day, but caused no injury. It was not attended to promptly by the hotel staff and remained a problem the next day.

The hotel is conveniently located near the Termini train station, which also houses the car rental agencies which we walked to easily with our bags. The clean, newly refurbished rooms, excellent noise insulation, good quality air-conditioning, and varied breakfast selection made it an overall good choice for the 100 euro nightly rate (tax included).
