The hotel is closely located to Termini station, it takes about 4-5 minutes on foot.
I was a bit concerned about the noise from the street (clubs, restaurants), but I closed the shutters and it was all very quiet).

There is a small restaurant next to the hotel where the pizza is very good. (most waiters are Asian, I don`t know the name of the place).

I was able to do the whole center of Rome on foot and still get back to the hotel safely. (the staff gave me a map and explained everything).

One last word of advice,: don`t pick a cab at random, Book one in advance!!! It can get a bit rough in the evening.

We just returned from our trip to Italy and had a great 2 night stay at the Hotel Crosti! The room was perfect for our needs, clean and spacious. The shower is a little on the small side but the bathroom in general was a good size. The staff is very accommodating and courteous, and definitely the best included breakfast we had during our trip! We found the location to be good, we took the 75 bus right across from the small supermarket up the street (where you'll find the best deal on water!) to the Colosseum and then spent the day walking around the city to all the other sites and walked back to our hotel from there. You can use the in-room Internet for 3 Euros, for 24hrs, which was a good deal and we found helpful due to a flight problem. Overall we enjoyed our stay at the Crosti, and would definitely return!

The hotel is within walking distance of the central station, there are plenty of cafes and a supermarket nearby. The staff I met were all very helpful, friendly and professional. The receptionist was expecting me when I arrived and was happy to point out places of interest on a map before showing me to my double room. This was spotlessly clean, tastefully decorated with a large tv, wardrobe with safe and hairdryer, mini bar and an en suite with a small corner shower, towels and toiletries. (No bath tub)

The breakfast is served downstairs and there is a nice atmosphere in the small breakfast room as well as a great selection of fresh fruit salad, yoghurts, cakes, croissants, bread, cheese, meat and omelettes.

All in all this is a good base for sightseeing, close to the station, clean, modern and a breakfast to set you up for the day. I feel I got great value for money at the Crosti hotel.

We have just returned from a 5 night stay at this 3 star hotel and were not disappointed. Our room, though not large, was very clean. The bathroom with toilet, bidet and shower was also very clean with towels changed daily. The only minor criticism was that there was no mirror in the bedroom area. The windows were double glazed with the addition of very effective shutters and curtains which kept out any noise and light. The staff were generally helpful and friendly.
This is a well located hotel, only five minutes walk from the Termini Metro/bus station – manageable even with a bag and suitcase. We used the Terravision Ciampino airport to Rome transfer bus which stops at Termini – a good bet and only 8 Euro return.
Although we used the Metro for getting to some of the sights it doesn’t generally cater for the main sights. From the hotel my suggestion would be to walk 5 minutes to Via 20 Settembre and catch the number 492 bus ( it goes from the central reservation in the road). This bus takes you very near the Pantheon and Ponte Umberto areas – a far better option than using the depressing, crowded, graffiti ridden sights of the Metro.
There are several Trattoria/Pizzeria along from the Crosti including one recommended by the hotel. However, we ate on three occasions at Trattoria Pizzeria Andrea, a traditional trattoria – great food and atmosphere. It was full each night whilst others were not. All in all a very enjoyable stay.
