I was here with my mother and sister August 2007. It was a nice art deco hotel with a great location and friendly staff. Close to the central station so that you can just cross the street with your luggage and you're there.. And a nice point of departure for exploring Rome.

This is an excellent hotel which I would highly recommend. It’s within a very short walking distance of the rail and bus station, and also the subway, so the location is great for planning sightseeing trips. We booked a triple room and were automatically upgraded to a very spacious room on the ninth floor with a high ceiling. It was well decorated with a floor-to-ceiling mirror on one wall and nice finishes, and it had a very large bathroom. There view was very limited and the window shutters were tightly closed, but guests receive an invitation to enjoy a free glass of champagne at the rooftop patio restaurant which has a terrific view of Rome especially at sunset. Our only complaint is that we had the misfortune of being situated directly beneath this restaurant, so some shuffling noises kept us awake at night, and the air conditioning unit was a bit noisy, too. There was good variety in the breakfast, which included eggs, some meat and cheeses, as well as the standard pastries. Unfortunately, the hotel’s wireless Internet access is very expensive as it is provided by Swisscom and we could not justify using it to check just a few e-mails. There are not many restaurants located next to the hotel. There is a mall on the ground floor of the rail station in case any supplies are needed. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay there.

Hotel is in a great location across from Termini Station.The reception area and lobby was nice, and the reception staff allowed us to check in a couple of hours early.

Our room was lovely, a good size with a large bed, which was a little hard but we got used to it. Room looked directly out onto the main road so was very very noisy when the window was open. The room was clean and tidy and the bathroom was large and clean, and there is an excellent daily maid service.

Only problem we had was that the air conditioning unit was very noisy, and even when we had it set to off, it was still making just as much noise as when it was on.

The breakfast selection was good, and the food was nice.

Overall, this is a good hotel for the price.

There are a couple of restaurants nearby which are very expensive, we found that Il Tavolinetto, on Via Rosmini (walk down Via Cavour out of the hotel, second street on the right) was excellent, it was the cheapest we found, the food was delicious, nicer than some of the more expensive places nearby and the service was great.

Would also recommend using one of the many open top hop on hop off bus tours (we used 110open) as they stop at all the main places, with an audio tour, price is reasonable and the services are frequent. The public transport in Rome didnt seem to be so good, with the metro not running to most of the main attractions and buses always seemed very busy.

We went to Italy for our honeymoon and used Gate1travel to book all our accomodations. They had two choices for hotels in Rome, this hotel and another. The other had horrible reviews on tripadvisor, so we picked this hotel, despite rather negative reviews as well.

I must say that the past reviews I read were wrong! This hotel was great. It was in a good location, within walking distance to the colosseum and right next to the train station and both major metro lines.

Our room was on the 8th floor and was georgous. There was a ton of storage, a computer with internet ( you did have to pay to use it) a mini fridge, queen sized bed and a very large bathroom. Everything was clean and they even provided complimentary snacks, a bottle of water and teabags. I know we got a better room because the staff knew we were on our honeymoon, but I couldn't be happier with the service we received at this hotel. The only sad thing was that we had two french doors with balconies, only they had a metal covering 3/4 of the way down as a safety feature. The light still was able to shine through, but it is sad that they can no longer be used for what they were originally intended for. It would have been nice to cuddle on the balcony and enjoy the signts of Rome.

Breakfast was included with our room and we were happy to see a nice spread of european breads, hard boiled eggs, cold cuts, fruit etc. They also had a very cool cappuccino machine.

I would recommend this hotel to anyone and we already know that if we return to Rome someday, we will stay at this hotel again.
