The Hotel Gea is on a busy street..and there was lots of noise. The AC didn't work correctly and we had to keep the windows open and at night and early morning the noise was somewhat disturbing. The breakfast provided was very good. Plenty of choices, and good variety. Pleasant staff. Helpful for the most part. We were able to access our personel email at a computer in the lobby. It was within walking distance to Termini which was good. This was my first trip abroad so I have nothing to compare to...but all in all..a good stay.

This was my second time staying at the Hotel Gea and it was as good as the first. My daughter and I were travelling together and the size of our room was great with a beautiful big bathroom. The breakfast each morning (included in the room price) was a great start to the day. The front desk staff were friendly and spoke great English. The use of a computer to send emails was also great. This hotel is easily within walking distance of almost any place you want to go to in Rome, is close to a metro station and has great shopping and restaurants nearby

We stayed here after reading good reviews from tripadvisor and venere.com and were simply happy with everything. The location of the hotel is in the heart of Rome where you have everything you need on the same street such as a gelato stand, a supermarket, restaurants, boutiques, pharmacies, cafes, churches, fruit stands, and even a McDonald's (if you really miss it). Also within close walking distance is Termini train station and not too far off are all the many monuments such as Trevi fountain and the Colliseum.

Francesca at the front desk made us feel at home from day one! Thank you for your warmth and excellent service! She and Maximo at the desk made each of our 4 days stay here truly special from their restaurant recommendations to their personal suggestions of where to find certain things.

The room was simply gorgeous! The charm of the room including the floor tiles were stunning and the size was unexpectedly large. We had a large queen/king bed and an extra alcove that had a separate single bed for our 4 yr old child with its own cabinet. There was a small stocked mini-ref and a large bathroom with shower and small coffee table and chair. Very clean, spacious and quiet since it was on the 2nd floor and facing the inner part of the hotel/courtyard. (Included pics with this review).

The neighborhood was very safe and we enjoyed strolling even late at night with our child. The hotel has a very small sign up front (easy to miss) and is located on the first floor inside a little charming building compound (1st floor in Europe is 2nd floor for us in the US) and although there is no wireless access in the rooms, they have it in the lobby and also have a laptop for guest use. They close the front door at night so you have to take the side entance on the side street but it was no incovenience at all.

Overall, we think we have found a hotel that we will keep coming back to in the future when we are in Rome. Their family-friendly service, excellent location, spacious comfy and cozy rooms with character, all translate into great value in a beautiful city.

I chose this hotel after reading reviews on tripadvisor : this was the only hotel with no negative comments!
We spent 4 wonderful days/nights in Rome and really enjoyed our stay at this hotel. Extremely well located, very close to most sites, and in a pleasant shopping area. We got 2 rooms, one for us and one for our teenage kids and they were both good sizes , with comfortable beds and nice bathrooms.and quiet. The one thing to improve though would be the old tiny TVs.
The staff were very friendly and advised us every night to find nice restaurants in the vicinity (we were too tired to walk far or take a bus). In all restaurants we got great Italian food for a very reasonable price.
Breakfast was served in a small room, but we could always get a table and there was a nice selection of food.
I would definitely recommand this hotel and hope to be back one day!
