One of the best hotels we stayed in on our recent business trip in Europe. It's about 15 mins from the city centre by cab (30 Euro) and about 15 mins from Ciampino airport. It's NOT close to Fiumicino.

The hotel seems pretty new, and the cab driver wasn't too sure where it was, but the sat nav got us there. Reception is huge, and there seemed to be a lot of people milling around. Only one guy on reception trying to do everything, so it all took a bit of time to check in, book cabs, alarms etc. But he was very polite, if a bit distracted by the endless queries from the enormous Korean tour groups who kept fussing about their rooms.

Room was pretty big, felt quite plush. Very clean. Nice new bathroom too. Only problem was that it wounded like there was a stream running overhead - something to do with the aircon, and I couldn't make it stop. Out with the ear plugs again. No noise from the corridors though, or from outside.

There was wireless internet and also a network connection cable, but it was an extra cost (12 Euros for 12 hours) which was added onto the bill.

Breakfast was extra too, but since we had an early start, we didn't try it.

Overall, it was quite a nice hotel, and I'd have been happy to stay there a bit longer. But only for business, it's too far out from the centre to be a tourist hotel.

Stayed for 4 days in September. Agree with other reviewers who found the out of town location easily compensated for by the efficient hotel minibus transport to and from the metro during the day and from the centre of Rome during the evening.

Quality of rooms, breakfast and value for money excellent.

Pool v cold but pool area fine for a couple of hours relaxing between a busy day in Rome and evening.

Highly recommended for those who prefer a more modern hotel environment.
