I chose his hotel based on location, as I only had one day in Rome and wanted to see the Colliseum, but in the end it was a very pleasant surprise.

The hotel is very close to the main attractions and easy to get to using public transit. Just like the web site indicates it is 200m away from thr Colliseum, and therefore close to all the other sites.
The room I stayed in was very clean, and comfy. The owners live there and the personal touch is present and obviuos everywhere in the building. Great service, great advice for scheduling and making the most of my short stay in Rome.
The rooftop restaurant is awesome, I wish I would go back in the summer.


Definitely a good choice!

Stayed in Rome a week. Location of this hotel is ideal. Far enough away from the Trevi fountain and Spanish Steps that you don't feel that you are in the middle of the tourist area, yet still close enough to walk to all attractions. (You need to take a taxi, bus or Metro to Vatican and Villa Borghese, but that's all.)

Rooms are clean, roof top breakfast is great. Massimo (owner's son) speaks very good english and was helpful with reservations for Galleria Borghese and restaurant suggestions. I would stay here again if traveling to Rome. Rooms facing the courtyard are a bit smaller but very quiet. Next time I might try a room facing the road for the extra space.

Great Hotel!
The rooms are clean and big. Location is great. The staff is very nice. We arrived at 7:30 am and our room was ready. We checked in and had breakfast (for free), which was great! Loved the cappuccinos. The gentleman in the reception gave us great touristic information. I would definitely go back to this hotel. I recommend it to everyone.

My wife, I and our grand daughter stayed at the Apollo for three nights in October. It was a wonderful stay and the location of the hotel couldn't have been better. 20 minutes from the Pantheon, about the same to Trevi and about 10 from the forum.
Our room, while a bit small, was large enough for comfort and was immaculate. The room overlooked an interior court and was very quiet. The bathroom was modern and sparkling and well equipped and the stall shower was large enough for comfort. The beds were comfortable.
The included continental breakfast was ample and was served on the top floor where there is an indoor/outdoor area that is cozy and pleasant. The elevator takes you as far as the 4th floor, and you then walk up steps to the breakfast area.
There are good restaurants nearby, as well as an internet cafe. There was a terminal in the hotel lobby, but it seemed to be down much of our stay.
The staff was welcoming and pleasant. Some spoke good English, others not, but all were accomodating. We especially have appreciated the help that Alessandro has afforded us after our stay: One of our suitcases was lost upon our arrival in Rome and was delivered late. We had to buy some necessities in the meantime. To file a delayed baggage claim we needed documentation as to the arrival time of the bag. As we got no help from Air One, Alessandro provided information by fax that I have submitted with our claim.
All in all a fine experience, and we would definitely stay at the Apollo again.
