This little hotel is about a 5 minute walk from Termini and easy access to all attractions within the Historical Centre. It shares the building with Yellow Hostel, but the rooms are located on various floors at the back half of the building. Our room was located on the 3rd floor and well looked after in a secure corridor. We had a family (deluxe) room, which had ample room in both the room itself and the bathroom. The towels were like table cloths, so this is the only thing you could actually fault them for. Breakfast is included with the rate and is severed upstairs on the patio with a most wonderful view. Staff were friendly and very patient with our half Italian/English. Lots of amenities within easy walk - supermarkets, internet points, eateries, laundromats etc. The area was very safe to walk around, even at night, which we did most nights.

The only other thing that we thought the hotel could improve on is to install mini-fridges in its rooms. Coming from Australia we like our drinks cold and you certainly can't get that in Europe.

We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again. In fact we tried to book an additional night in June before we flew out but the hotel was fully booked.

  • Liked — Location and cleanliness
  • Disliked — Lack of mini-fridge
  • Tips/Secrets: — Bring your own towel

The location was good, near Termini Station but some of the inconveniences we had were:
No air conditioning, no hairdrier, very small bathroom and the floor would get flooded after having a shower. Towels were not very good quality. Toilet seat was broken.

But what we found more upsetting was not only that the owners did not speak any English but the rude attitude towards us from the very beggining. They only seemed to care about their bussines but not the quality of service offered to the customers.
To be honest we couldn´t wait to get out of their hotel. I would not recommend this hotels to anybody.
Hope you have a better experience and enjoy your holidays.

We stay at the Corallo whenever we are in Rome and have never been disappointed with our room or the service. The staff is always very friendly and greets us like old friends. The room that we usually get is across the hall from the reception area. It ihas always been very clean and well maintained. We especially enjoy the little terrace. The terrace is tiny --only big enough for a table and chairs but In early September it is screened with vines and has flowers to add to the privacy . In the evening before dinner we have enjoyed our wine and cheese while listening to a neighbor's beautiful Italian music coming from an open window somewhere in the building. The room is not overly large and lacks the frills of a luxury hotel but has all the amenities you need to be comfortable. We have never had a problem with noise as we stay in the back of the hotel. They do have rooms that face the street but we usually ask for the rooms in the back with a terrace. The location is excellent-- a short walk from Termini and quick transportation to the airport or to the historic sites. There are great little restaurants right in the neighborhood that are reasonable and serve excellent food. The pizza shop on the corner is excellent as is the Leoni di Abruzzi across the street. We have recommended this hotel to travelers we meet on our trips, as well as to our friends who are visiting Rome. I would recommend it to anyone who want a safe, clean and reasonable hotel close to all the historic sites.

We choosed the hotel because we were short of time and the location looked OK. Is near Termini station and at 10 minutes by foot from another metro station, Pza. Republica.The area, were many other hotels are located,is OK for tourists, well connected to the city attractions. The surroundings were safe even in the night when we got back. There are many small and cheap restaurants in this area and just at the next corner a pizzeria with very good and cheap pizza. The hotel is on the 6 floor of a building but the small elevator worked fine. The room was just like in the picture but smaller :), however the good thing was that the room was clean. For example, you can hardly put two people in the bathroom. We had the window to a backyard so it was not noisy from this point of view but we heard the cleaning lady every morning from the hall. Breakfast is continental, just some coffee and a croissant but I heard in Italy is not so unusual.The breakfast room is in the same room with the reception with four small tables. We prefered to go there just to take the food to our room.The people from the desk are OK, not so helpfull but not bad.If you ask they will answer but not expect too much.Personally I think that it is a fair hotel but not for what we payed. We spend around 120 Euro/night and this is too much for what the hotel offered. We stayed at this price in Spain and even in Italy (Florence) but much better than here.If you can get a better price and don't expect too much is OK. The city makes all the money, many attractions and monuments very well preserved.

We stayed for 4 nights In June 2005. I was informed when I booked online that the rates included air con. When I told the old man at reception he then gave me the remote control for the air con. Later that day he then said he checked with the company I booked with that it doesn't include air con and it will be an extra 10 Euro a day! Wasn't happy about that. Also when we checked out he forgot to give us back our passports because he was too engrossed with the soccer on tv!
Otherwise it's a nice hotel, clean rooms and great location.
