The hotel totallly expected our expectation. It’s located in a nice, quiet neighborhood, we were able to take a nap in the afternoon after we just got in without interruption. Room and facilities were very clean and daily breakfast had tons of selections and very fresh. Easy to get to the bus stops and train station.

The staff in the hotel were helpful and friendly and our room was clean and nicely decorated. Bed and pillows really comfortable. We had a front aspect with a lovely little balcony but you can hear the traffic and buses are noisy until fairly late at night. Breakfast has all you could want in terms of variety and the tiny little custard filled ‘balls’ with the sweet pastries were amazing! Rooftop bar is gorgeous, even in November but the drinks bill was the priciest we paid for our whole trip. We thought the experience worth it though. We walked to all the big attractions from the hotel but if your mobility is limited then you might be better taking a more central hotel as it was 30-40 minutes of walking. Beautiful walks if that is your thing though. Both nights we stayed we ate in wonderful local Italian restaurants within a 10 minute walk. Lots to choose from and not overly expensive. Don’t ask the hotel to arrange your taxi to and from the airport. Their quote was 175 euro each way but a taxi from the nearby train station and picking one up from the airport taxi stand was only 40 euro each way for 4 adults with 2 cases.

We found the staff to be helpful, breakfast was great and it was clean and modern. We walked everywhere from the hotel. Especially liked the rooftop terrace for a drink at the end of the day, the bartender knew his stuff as did all the staff. The view from the terrace at night was stunning. Will stay again.

Nothing to complain about here. It was perfect. The rooms are newly renovated with a spacious bathroom. The breakfast was fresh with a lot of options. The staff from the front desk to the breakfast room to the maintenance guys were terrific.

The staff were very friendly and helpful. They can speak English well. Breakfast was good with many options. The location is roughly 15-20min walk from the Rome terminal and there are also bus stops nearby. However, on a flip side, two things to note. 1) you will be charged the city tax for hotel which is normal and expected 2) I got the room G07 and it’s the first room located on the ground floor, near the reception and the main entrance. It’s very noisy and loud. The window in the room is not able to fully close. You can hear people talking, dog barking and heavy engine sound whenever a car drives by. It has impacted my sleep quality which is something that I dont like.

Not a 4 star.
An average hotel. Definitely not on par with 4 star hotels. Tiny rooms and bathrooms didn’t have good lighting, or space for toiletries. Beds seemed old and worn. The hotel could use an upgrade. The positives: Great location and lovely staff. Breakfast was very good.

The hotel is very nice and breakfast was wonderful. Staff and room great. The property was fae from Rome attractions. 30 min walk to Trevi and all the shopping. It was near the train station and metro, but still 15 min walk. Very nice restaurants around the corner but super quiet and nothing to do in the immediate area. Price was high at close to $400 a night. Not even a free water in room.

I did not have a positive experience during my stay. The hotel is in a great location but expensive for what you get in return. A personal item was also stolen from my room while I was visiting. The rooms are small. The bathroom very small. The shower is tiny. The hallways throughout the hotel are very narrow so you can get blocked in easily with staff when they are walking by with equipment. There is also constant banging and noise throughout the small hotel. Also, a staff member (maid?) took my clothes steamer from my room when they entered and cleaned my room. The maid staff entered my room even though I had the do not disturb sign on the door handle. I reported this to the front desk staff but they didn't seem to care. I WOULD NOT stay here again.
