A few minutes walk from Termini station. It is so convenient to the metro that it is easy to get to everything. This is the city and the area has the usual inner city issues. We plan to return to this hotel when we return to Rome.

Bad experience. My son forgot his shoes in the room. I called the day after the checkout and the shoes “were not found”. The cleaning crew obviously kept them and the hotel decided to lie about it. Very dishonest staff. I would not recommend this hotel for that reason, very bad experience. Will never return to this establishment.

Close to station, hard work dragging case there!

We didn’t realise until check in that we had stayed here 8 years ago. The hotel has had a bit of a spruce up since then. We had a sizeable corner room, with a modern walk in shower. The lifts to the rooms a very small, so don’t go with heaps of suitcases. You get one bottle of complementary water and the room has a small fridge. The lobby has iced water and juice. We had a light meal on the rooftop lounge and the service was nice. I was surprised to be credited a small amount for my first night as my husband was not arriving until the next day. I had booked for us both but the gent checking me in adjusted the tariff. Be prepared for a 3% tip to be added to your total bill for all of the staff. This is not mandatory, but if you do ask to have it removed you will curtly be asked if there were any problems with your stay. Our preference is to tip the person we deal with directly, not people we never see!

We stayed at this hotel upon returning from a cruise. The check-in & check-out was quick and efficient. The front staff was very helpful securing our transportation needs. The room was extremely comfortable, large & very clean. The hotel had a beautiful rooftop bar and restaurant where we enjoyed a wonderful dinner with a gorgeous city view. They also had a delicious breakfast buffet. We will definitely stay here again when in Rome.
