The Amalfi is a clean hotel with a nice staff. The room we had, 421, was small but very clean. It was on the top floor and faced Via Merulana. When we opened the windows and looked left, the Basilica di Santa Maria Maggiore was right there. It was a beautiful sight.

The bathroom we had was okay for me, I'm only 5 feet tall; but my husband who is 6 feet tall and 230+ pounds found it way too small. Every morning I could hear him scream "Ow!" because he kept hitting his elbow against the wall in the stand-up shower. He keeps telling everyone that the shower could not have measured more than a 2.5' cube that was 6.5' tall! LOL! The upside of the bathroom was that it was very clean. It had a toilet and bidet and pedestal sink. And the towels were clean and over-sized (I mean over-sized that they looked almost like beach towels...funny).

Breakfast was included in our stay. I don't know if it's standard since I booked our whole vacation through EuropeanDestinations.com. Canned pates (I just remember the liverwurst), rolls, croissants (plain and jelly filled), cookies, juice (orange and blood orange), cheese, yogurt and cold cuts (small packages of mortadella and salami) were offered everyday from 7:30-10:30 am. There was coffee available such as regular, expresso, and cappuccino. They had it on a menu on the wall with prices next to each, but like I said, that was included in our vacation deal so I'm not sure who paid or not.

The only negatives were the elevator and internet. The elevator was TINY as stated in other reviews. It barely fit my husband and I and our 2 regular sized luggages (29" rolling duffles). There is no internet at the hotel, I felt so detached from the rest of the world not being able to get online at all while I was in the room. One more thing, not really a negative, but it was strange- you have to leave your room key when you leave the hotel. Really weird, but that was their rule. Fortunately, none of our belongings were taken nor did we find unwelcomed visitors in our room.

The location of the hotel is okay. It wasn't so close to the sketchy area of the Termini station, but it wasn't that far either. It was our first time in Rome, so we weren't really sure what was a "good" area or a "bad" area. So we just pretended like we were home in NYC and just watched our surroundings... 'cause you never know! All the sites seemed like they were in walking distance from the Amalfi. We walked to everything in Rome: the Colosseum, Trevi Fountain, even to the Vatican. Great exercise after all the pasta!

My partner and I are just back from a 5 day trip to Rome where we stayed in the Hotel Amalfi. I have to say I wasn't sure what to expect from the reviews I had read....I was pleasantly surprised. The hotel is located centrally but in a way that allows the visitor to see a more "real", less "tourist" side of Rome although all major sites and tourist attractions are easily obtainable via hop on hop off tour bus that is a 1 min stroll from the hotel (which is also an excellent service €18 for a two day ticket to all attractions). Hotel Amalfi is rustic and gives you a romantic feel not the bland samey atmosphere at some of the pricier hotels in the more popular areas. Breakfast is a basic continental affair - nice coffee/breads/meats/cheeses etc... very nice and just right to start your day. Staff are very friendly and helpful arranging airport transfer and recommending some fantastic places to eat. Lots of really nice places to eat/drink a couple of mins stroll from the hotel. Rooms are small but add to the feel that you are somewhere cosy and romantic. I can't wait to return to the Hotel Amalfi.

I stayed at The Amalfi on a weekend break with my elderly mother. The hotel is just 5 mins from the Termini station and within walking distance of most sights. It has a lift so is good for older visitors. The rooms are spotless but a little small. Also depending on where your room is it can be a little noisy ( this is the only negative). The hotel staff are v.friendly and the breakfast is pretty good ( hams, cheeses, fresh rolls, pastries, juices, etc). I'd definitely reccommend this hotel for a short break in Rome .

the amalfi hotel is value for money well positioned for sightseeing, the only thing that was lacking was there was no tea or coffee making facility in the rooms after a days walking around rome a cup of coffee was needed.the rooms are very clean and the maid came everyday. breakfast was ok if you like jam and bread ! but for the price what can you expect.

We stayed at this hotel for 4nights on our honeymoon. It was in a good location by the church of Santa Maria Maggiore, which was about 10minutes walk from Termini, but far enough away to avoid the seedier feel of the Termini area. It was also close to a metro station, 3 minutes walk away, and there were restaurants and shops on the street. The room was double glazed so there was only the occasional bit of traffic noise and had shutters to keep the light and heat out so you could sleep late. The room was pretty tiny though - although everyone tells me all hotels in Rome are like this if you want a central location and don't want to pay hundreds of pounds. There was just enough room for the bed, a wardrobe, and two bedside tables. The bathroom had just a shower and it was really tiny - I'm 5' 11'' and found it hard to wash my hair without hitting my head on the wall, but the water pressure was good. The hotel had four floors and the lift only fitted 2 people, so it wouldn't be good for people who have a fear of tiny lifts, or can't manage stairs. You had to wait for breakfast at peak time too because the breakfast room didn't have many tables. But the staff were friendly and the location and price made up for the size of the room.

  • Liked — the location and price
  • Disliked — the size of the room especially the bathroom!
