We spent 6 nights at the Hotel Latinum from 9th to 15th July. We chose the hotel at short notice based on 1 Trip Advisor review and hoped we had done the right thing. We were not disappointed - the hotel hasn't been open long and is in an older building that has been beautifully restored.

The decor is contemporary with carpet on the bedroom floors and dark wood furniture. The air conditioning was most welcome whenever we returned to our room and we had it on throughout the night. There's double glazing so any traffic noise isn't intrusive but it would be noisy if you had the windows open during the day.

The bed was firmer than I like but I used a couple of blankets folded under the bottom sheet to soften it. The bathroom was spacious with a great power shower (no bath).

The dining area is off the reception area and the inclusive breakfast was continental type with plenty of choice - a bonus as we often stay in hotels where breakfast incurs an additional charge.

The staff were welcoming and most helpful if we needed anything.

The hotel was located about 1500m down a straight road from the Termini and we found this to be a very convenient location (walking down a parallel street is prettier where there is a supermarket and a famous ice cream parlour). Some of the area around Termini is a bit run down but we felt safe walking back to the hotel in the evenings - and there are plenty of buses and trams that stop right outside the hotel.

In overall terms we had a super holiday in Rome and would be happy to recommend this hotel to others.

Just come back from Rome after staying 3 nights at this lovely hotel with friends and thought I should write a review on it because when I booked it I could not find one. I always look at reviews other people have wrote so was a bit worried what this hotel was like. But I now realise why there was none as the hotel had only been opened a month! It was spotless, the rooms were lovely, beds very comfortable, fresh towels every day. We were on the 3rd floor which had a balcony. Its on a busy corner , which was great watching the crazy drivers, but with the shutters and the double glazed window you could not hear the traffic that much. The staff were really helpful and the first night sent us to this little pizza restaurant saying we would get discount, so a bit worried it would be expensive but the meal was lovely and cheap! Breakfast was simple, croissants, bread, ham, cheese, yogurt, fruit but plenty of it. The only downside was it being a little bit out the way, 15 min walk from the main Termini Station, but once you get your bearings and use the buses which we did it was no problem, bus stops right outside the hotel. Would definatly stop hear again. Also for cheap transport from the airport book Terravision Coaches, takes you straight to the Termini.
