The hotel is situated near the termini and this is very handy for buses, metros and the train. The area is perfectly safe and we always felt comfortable walking around. We checked in and out at weird times (1am and 5am) and both times were speedy and courteous.

Breakfast was plentiful and tasty with fruit, cereal, croissants/cake, rolls, salamis and hams and egg/bacon on offer. My daily cappuccino was delicious. Quite the best. Just make sure you order this instead of the usual Americano style bland and bleughhh coffee.

The hotel is beautifully air-conditioned and quiet. Our room was spacious and clean and the bed was large and comfortable (always a worry). Just beware of extortionate internet charges.

I found reception staff brisk but helpful. I can see how guests may consider a degree of warmth to be lacking but this wasn't an issue. We needed to print out our boarding passes and they kindly did this for us. I also lost my engagement ring down the plughole in the room and they could not have responded quicker, sending two hotel technicians to the rescue. Sure - you won't get top notch touristy advice at the front desk but isn't that what the Rough Guide to Rome is for?

This is a good solid hotel and I recommend it highly.

From first contact to our departure the experience was excellent. As a business and leisure traveler I can tell you that this stay was one that made a huge difference in our overall Rome experience.

The courteousness of staff, cleanliness, amenities, size and decor of rooms, common areas, breakfast offerings, everything was absolutely at the top.

Any questions we had or requests we made were handled quickly and very efficiently. Our stay at the Metropole was one that definitely enhanced our overall trip to Rome.

Thanks to everyone at Metropole for a wonderful experience.

Our selection on this hotel has proven to be excellent. We strongly recommend it. It is ideally placed, close to Metro stations and the Termini train station. We walked day and night without any having to worry about our own safety. The hotel has a lot of restaurants nearby from which we have to pick Alessio's just round the corner with excellent food & their own wine and is a close walk from Via Nazionale, a street with great shops. If we ever visit Rome again, The Metropole is the hotel we're going to book in. Definitely.

Walking distance to the train station and attractions, yet on a very safe,nice ,quiet street. Breaksfast was incredible and all the staff was very attentive. Cannot say enough wonderful things about about our stay.
