we have stayed at this hotel for four nights, location wasnt so good a little far from the city center. but there is bus stop near the hotel so you can easily go where ever you want.
our room was the smallest hotel room i have ever seen but it was nice and clean.
and there is mcdonalds, upim and a supermarket next to the hotel that was nice for us.

I agree with previous reviewers that the location of this hotel has a lot of positives. Easy access to a grocery, McDonalds, internet cafe, gelato store and the bus stop made our stay there almost bearable.

Our room, though, left much to be desired. We were staying with a tour group as this hotel seems to specialize in them. To be fair, some people in our group had a pleasant experience. But this is an accounting of what we encounered.

Our shower did not drain and the bathroom had an ant infestation. The carpeted floors were nasty so be sure to bring socks to wear around that you are then willing to throw away. The beds were extremely uncomfortable. There are no screens so the mosquitos have free reign. After the first night of fighting them off and receiving at least 50 bites among us we kept the windows closed and endured the heat since there is no working air conditioning. The desk staff was unresponsive to our complaints.

Fortunately, we had read the reviews before we left and locked our luggage each day before we left the room. One day I left one bag unlocked and it was obviously looked through with things left messed up; fortunately nothing was stolen.

If you have ANY choice of whether or not to stay here, by all means choose another hotel. If you are stuck here with a tour group I hope our warnings will help you plan how to survive a stay at this establishment. Bring several cans of OFF and mentally prepare for a camping-like experience. And lock your luggage.

I stayed at this hotel for a few days in March with a large tour group. I thought the area was beautiful and there were places to go around it and it also wasn't as far from the cities as the other hotels we stayed at... I like how it was decorated and I thought they were well accommodating. I would highly recommend it. The garden I thought was very beautiful especially late night/early morning. The only thing I didn't like about the hotel was it's showers.... they were way too small and the other ones that were in the hotel just covered the whole bathroom floor, i guess that's not too bad but a lot of the hotels we stayed at in Italy had really small showers but huge bathrooms.

I definately recommend this hotel though...

I profoundly disagree with the earlier ratings for this hotel. It may be possible that two different hotels exist in Rome with the same name. The Hotel La Pergola that I stayed in was nice (address: Via Dei Prati Fiscali 55, Roma 00141, Italy, phone #+39 06 810 7250, ---).

The staff was friendly, helpful, and certainly went out of their way to accommodate our large tour group. One of the hotel managers, Sergio, was especially helpful, and made our stay pleasant.

The hotel is located next to a grocery store and a Mc Donald's (aka American embassy). It was a short, safe walk and several of our tour members visited one or both locations. The outside of the hotel is fine. There is a very nice courtyard in an "L" shape and many in my group really enjoyed sitting there.

I found the rooms adequate. My only complaint is that the walls were thin - I could hear my neighbors in the next room talking (glad I brought my earplugs). Otherwise, the room was clean and comfortable, with no odors as described in previous ratings. I had the occasion to enter several of the hotel's rooms since I was a chaperone on our tour group, and I also found the same clean, odor free conditions in those rooms as well (of course it was clean before the kids opened their suitcases!).

The hotel arrangements were made for my group by EF Tours. I do not know what the room cost, but I expect that it was a reasonable value.
