My boyfriend and I stayed at Albergo Piave for 4 nights in late April 2009. I chose this hotel for the price- I got it for about 95 Euro per night. I was considering other hotels closer to many of the sites that were also much larger and had more ammenities, but the price of this hotel and its ratings are why we chose this one. After coming from Sorrento, this hotel was a bit shocking to see at first... it is in an older NY-style building and only occupies the 3-4 floors of the building. The rooms are VERY small, but clean and efficient. The hotel is run by an older man whose English is not the greatest and has a very dry sense of humor that is not for everyone. The location of the hotel is not that bad, but we did use the metro quite often to get around as it was more convenient and quicker than walking. This hotel is not in a touristy area, so things die down at night, but I always felt safe walking at night. Overall, I would recommend this hotel if you're looking to save money, but if you're willing to splurge a bit more, I would probably stay somewhere else.

We stayed at Albergo Piave over the weekend for a pleasure trip in Rome and would recommend to anyone who is looking for a budget hotel with style. Albergo Piave is located in a beautiful residential area, nearby many embassies. We appreaciated the quietness of the area after spending all day sightseeing in the busy streets of Rome.

When booking we were dubious because the hotel is on the second floor of a residential building, but decided to go ahead anyway. We did not regret it. The hotel is small, no thrills, but has everything you need. We enjoied the modern decorated room and the stylish bathroom, everything is very new and clean.

On top of everything we had an excellent customer service! Once back home I reliazed I forgot a piece of clothing at the hotel and they send it to my home address at no charge, and within 24 hours I had my missing item delivered.

We have been extremely impressed by the whole experience at Albergo Piave andd strongly reccomend it to all tourists visiting Rome.

Recently visited Italy and Albergo Piave was my first stay. Great location within a 10 minute walk to the Rome Termini. Was traveling alone, and felt very safe here. Modestly spacious room, however someone working at the hotel smoked on occasion, and it could be smelled in my room. Good breakfast. Communication with staff challenging in the evenings - english speaking staff present during daytime hours. Great gelato place a few blocks away - l Caruso on Via Collina N 13/15, and wonderful market, Pinta SRL on Via Flavia 48/50, where you can get fresh, delicious pizza and pastries.

Really a great place if you're on a tight budget (all you backpackers out there!).
The rooms are extremely clean. AC works perfectly (and you need AC in Rome). The shower is better than a shower you'll find at a 4 star hotel! That was my favorite part of the room. And trust me that when you walk outside all day in the heat, you want a shower that works perfectly when you come back to your room.
The staff is very friendly and often asks if everything is fine. Breakfast is simple but good. They make a great cappuccino! The place is a bit far from the center if you plan on walking but all the buses pass in front of the hotel.
There is a delicious little gelateria 10 seconds away from the hotel and (oddly enough) a really good Greek fast food place right around the corner. Explore the streets around the hotel because although they are very quiet, there are lots of little restaurants and food joints around.
I would defintely go back if I wanted to stay at a place in a more quiet neighborhood!
