We stayed in what were lead to believe was a 4* hotel but given the price we expected 3*. The walls are paper thin there were tour loads of Spanish school children staying there too. You could hear them running up and down the corridors all night and shouting from their rooms at each other. The children where not kept to one floor but dispersed among the regular hotel guests and allowed to run a muck.
The rooms themselves were basic but the bedding was changed every day and fresh towels.
When i tried to complain about the noise, I was ignored by the staff. The women simply carried on filling paper work. The place could be tolerated if the staff were friendlier, when i asked for the manager I was sent from one person to another all of whom denied any responsibility. Finally it is some distance from the city of Rome but its not difficult to get into the town. Avoid the kids .and the snotty

Was part of a group of 50 people who all believed they'd booked a 4* star hotel with a UK tour operator. Announced by guide over tanoy on collection from airport that hotel was 'not what we might be expecting', and it certainly was not. Discovered that half of the hotel (same building different entrance) is called the Ritz and that is 4* the Regent part though is not, l would struggle to call it a 2*. At least 3/4 of our party complained of dirty rooms, ingressing water from rain, badly stained bathroom sinks/baths, very noisy single glazed over busy street + all of the air con units droning on throughout the night. The place overall looked shabby and very run down. It is not central either so everywhere you go you need to be prepared to walk a couple of miles or bus/train it.
I would not stay there again, and l doubt many of my fellow travellers would either.

I stayed at the Regent last July and found the hotel to be great. Clean, spacious rooms. No tea/coffee facilities in room, but that didnt bother me. There are two lifts up to the hotel rooms so you dont have to take the stairs. Breakfast was lovely, pleanty to choose from and tasty. Hotel staff we found to be very friendly and all spoke English, however a little Italian always goes a long way. The only down side to this hotel is it's location, it's a little out the way and you need to get the tube everyday to get into the centre. We got a 3 day pass which you can buy at the tube station. Also we found there we no resturaunts nearby so ate at the hotel every night, this wasnt a problem as the food was lovely, a great choice and not too overpriced, but it would've been nice to eat out at least once. Rome is a fantastic city and I would love to go back, I would certainly consider this hotel again, but would try to find one of a similar standard a bit closer to the main attractions. That said, we didnt have a problem with the tube and it's probably the best way to see the whole city if you only have a few days. Hope this review helps.

This hotel was an average 2-Star Hotel. The room was clean and reasonable. No tea/coffee making available in the room. The lifts were very small. All the tv channels were in Italian- none in English. Had trouble with the room cards not working and a few others on our group had the same problem. In the winter- the warm air-conditioning can be turned off but not turned on to cool the room down. In the summer (I was told) the cool air-conditioning can be turned off but not turned on to heating if the room is cold. Cheap system. The staff in the hotel were hit and miss- one person hung up the phone on me when I rang from the room, while another lady in reception couldn't have been more helpful. The breakfast each day was just okay with sliced ham, cheese and salmon. Also a selection of breads, cereals etc were available.
Up the road and around the corner past the subway station is a cheap and cheerful pasta place PASTARITA (they are part of a chain). Reasonable pizza's and pasta about 5 to 12 euros a dish. We used it once or twice, as we ducked the hotel restuarant. Rome anyway is full of pasta places, so why get ripped off by the hotel? To the left out the hotel entrance is another tiny pizza place, which does takeway and sells bottled water.
The subway was 1 euro per trip or 4 euros a day. Keep the hotel card with you, because sometimes the taxi drivers don't know the hotel as it is a bit outside the centre. Once they had the name, they all used GPS to navigate there. About 8 or 10 euros from Trevi fountain to hotel depending on traffic.
If the pope is at home, his public audience is on Wednesday and his celebrates mass on Sunday mornings.
Enjoy Rome and just use the hotel to sleep in.
