My family and I (four adults) stayed at Hotel Grifo in September of this year and we really enjoyed it. It is in a great location for walking around "Old Rome", it's close to the Coliseum, a Metro station, and there are tons of restaurants and shops nearby. The rooms are small, as with most European hotels, but they were exceptionally clean and comfortable. We also had a balcony as well as a private bathroom on the top floor. Alessandro and his staff were friendly and helpful, giving us advice and directions when we looked lost (which was often!). We loved it, and will stay there again when we return to Rome next year.

We stayed for 4 nights at The Grifo Hotel. We really like this place. The location is excellent for historial rome and good for the rest of the central area it is also close to Cavour Metro station. The rooms are small and the hotel clean. The breakfast is good. A nice mix of national guests. All of the staff were suberb. Everyone from the lady who help serve breakfast to the reception staff were happy and helpful. The reception staff were excellent and we didn't need a tour guide after chatting each morning and getting tailormade expert advise on what to see, where to go and how to get there. Local restaurants - pizzerias, tavernas, winebars, indian restaurant good. I would recommend this hotel to anyone. Thanks for our stay.

And we thank you so much for sharing your impressions regarding the hotel with the rest of the world.

We will be pleased to host you again in our little hotel... at least you are already aware that room's dimension is a comprimise you have to accept if you want to experience a real stay in Rome... at least this is what Romans think!

A few steps from the Colosseum, in the middle of too main shopping street of Rome, cool location!!!
The room with the balcony is really nice, it makes you enjoy your staying in Rome (even though in a hotel room) like if you where a real citizen of Rome.

We stayed at Hotel Grifo for 2 days before going on our cruise. Alessandro spoke very good English and that was a plus. He was full of information and gave us lots of advise on what to see and how to get there. The hotel rooms were small but clean and breakfast was included. That was great. Hotel is within walking distance to the Colesseum. I would stay at this hotel again if I am lucky enough to get to Rome again. Thanks to the staff at Grifo

The service was wonderful as the staff were so kind and friendly. Our room was on the top floor and we had a view which was great. Our room also had it's own shower and toilet which is always nice to have. It felt cozy as well, like the hotel. The location is wonderful. It was close to the places we wanted to see and go to. The coffee, well the coffee is to die for and the food is wonderful as well. The only problem for us was, we walked to a bus station to go to somewhere we wanted to see and the bus no longer stopped there so we ended up walking a fair distance to catch the bus. Good news, we saw more things doing this.
