Rome April 2025

A three day stay after an 11 day cruise. A great spot to wind down, central to the main railway station, metro and bus services. So, in essence just a short ride away from all the major tourist attractions. It is a modern establishment, great amenities, great food, and very helpful and friendly staff.

Overall the stay was ok. The hotel was pretty clean. Rooftop bar was closed for renovations. Breakfast Buffet that they push is overrated. Shuttle service is over priced , you are better off getting a taxi. Staff not very friendly and informative. For example, did not tell us about placing the card in a slot near the door for the electricity to work. Air conditioning did not work either. Room was so stuffy.

Modern hotel

This was a nice & modern hotel for Rome. Room was nice but had a design flaw so effectively we had a glass window without any shutters or curtains and light flooded in all day and night. We had to escalate to hotels.com and the hotel changed our room the next day. The a/c of the first room also made a noise like a motorbike so in all we had a terrible night's sleep. The second room had a quieter a/c and no problems with windows but the shower door didn't close properly, leaking water all over the bathroom floor. It was fine for us, though. The hotel is a five-minutes walk from Termini station. The area is gritty with lots of touristy, expensive, terrible food options but we found one decent restaurant nearby. The hotel restaurant is also nice for dinner (avoid the pumpkin fusilli though). Staff was generally nice. We were surprised to be asked for a 3% tip when leaving. We didn't pay but it was awkward to be asked.

Nice, comfortable, hotel. It worked well as a base for exploring Rome. The staff was helpful and provided good service. Lost a star due to the lack of coffee - they had a coffee bar but it was not attended to regularly. Only instant coffee was available in the room.

Convenient and Comfortable

Large hotel, easy walk with large suitcase, to/from Termini railway station for regional trains and metro. Frequent bus services to the usual tourist sites in streets close to hotel and at Termini. Reception staff were friendly, spoke excellent English and most were helpful. The property is serviced by three lifts. Small room is cosy but adequate for two people. Two chairs, spacious bathroom, walk-in shower equipped with a grab bar. Air con was very quiet and the opening window very welcome. Blackout curtains were excellent. Some noise from adjoining rooms. Our room was serviced daily. Two chairs, a small wardrobe, kettle with tea coffee, frig. One English language TV channel. More power points and charging points and a second baggage stand would be useful. We found the light switches complicated and confusing. Dining room offers breakfast (E16) and dinner and room service breakfast is available. Ice available from the bar and purified water from dispenser on each floor to refill bottle in room. Many reasonably priced restaurants serving tasty meals within a minute’s walk from the hotel. A tabac (closed Sunday) in the next block sells tickets for bus, metro etc.

Enjoyed my stay at this hotel! Was lucky enough to get a room upgrade, so had a surprisingly large room for my quick one night stopover in Rome. I appreciated that the hotel was so easy to get to from the train station, and also walking distance from many key attractions.
