We stayed at Flower Garden hotel for 3 nights at the end of March, 2009. We were very impressed by the staff as they were vey friendly and helpful. The rooms are nice, not very big but not too small, very cozy and comfortable (the beds are excellent). Very clean, the rooms are cleaned every day. The bathroom was spacious. The American Breakfast is ok, the croissants and donuts are absolutely delicious, but if you don't eat cereals with milk, cheese, boiled eags and jam for breakfast, you might have a problem.
Very near to Termini station (2 minutes walk), is very easy to reach the city center (only 2 metro station till the Colloseum or 30 - 40 minutes walk).
We really felt very well in this hotel and we will definetely return (hopely in the summer).

The location of this hotel is excellent-very close to Termini and a few minutres from Santa Maria Maggiore. The personnel is very nice, kind and helpful. The rooms are small, the bathrooms are different sizes (some very small, some bigger) and the furniture classic. There is just one small elevator in the hotel (it is enough considering that it is a small hotel) and also a minibar in the room. The main problems are regarding the breakfast (cold and few choices-good coffee anyway) and the fact that the house-keeping doen't do a very good job!!! If you don't spend much time in the hotel, it is ok, but if you want something above average, choose another hotel.

This place is shabby, dark and dismal. We arrived and had to wait, and the attendant was not very friendly. We expected the room to be small but it was ridiculously small. The bedding had burn holes in it. The shower curtain was broken off the rings. There was rust in the tub, water leak stains in the ceiling and holes in the walls. We asked the attendant for our voucher back and he would not return it. He told us " It is your problem". Needless to say we were in a bad place. We had pre-paid for a three night stay there and no where else to stay. We took a walk and found a cheaper hotel with more room just around the corner. We were very fortunate to get a refund from the travel agency we used.

Please don't waste your time or money at the Flower Garden Hotel in Rome!!!!!!!!

This hotel is close to the train and bus station. Also at the bus station is a Hop on and Off tour bus. This is most convenient way to see the sights, a two day pass is perfect, cheaper than bus fare.
We noted the rooms are small, bathrooms okay, the hotel is immaculate. The breakfast is the usual european continental breakfast.
The desk help is most helpful with directions. I would stay again if but only for the convenience
