The hotel was ideally located close to Roma Termini and the subway. There’s many restaurants, bars and more casual dinning close by. The hotel has been nicely renovated and front desk at staff were efficient and helpful. The rooftop bar is well furnished and relaxing, although drinks were expensive.

Booked superior room with balcony. The balcony was very disappointing, it looked out on to large air duct pipes which were noisy and unsightly, so much so we were unable to use the balcony. The room was very nice but expected more from 4 star. The coffee cups were paper, no complimentary water in the room. The shower was powerful. The breakfast was basic to say the least, certainly not 4 star breakfast and so i didnt eat much of it Reception staff helpful when needed apart from when a couple in the next room to us were having a screaming amd shoutibg match at 0430 until just before 6am, the guy on reception didnt really want to know, just said he didnt know which room it came from exactly. He couldve taken the time to find out (before we told him) as the argument sounded very heated. As it happened, the couple left the hotel at 6am together but something shoulve been done earlier. We had high expectations from this hotel but we wouldnt stay again, sadly.

This is a great hotel located very close to the Termini Station in Rome. You can walk to the main areas of Rome (about 20-25 minutes to the Spanish Steps or Colosseum). Nice roof top bar. Breakfast provided by the hotel has lots of options. Lots of good restaurants in the area. Would recommend!

This hotel was amazing. Is very modern, clean and worth it. 5 mins from the train station and walkable to trevi fountain (20 mins walk) which we didn’t mind. The roof top is great and the free breakfast is fantastic.

Lovely Hotel within walking distance of Termini st
I was looking for a hotel within walking distance of the Termini train station. Most of them people rated poorly and would not stay in them again. I came across the review for this hotel. The only one people said they would stay in a second time. It was easy walking distance. The staff was very accommodating and super friendly. Our room was a comfortable size. It was clean and quiet. The shower had excellent water pressure. The room was renovated and very attractive and great air conditioning. There was a small refrigerator and a nice coffee maker in the room. The roof top bar/ resteraunt has a great view of the city, great snack options for light meal. Excellent breakfast buffet with a great coffee machine. I would definitely stay here again as well as recommend it to others. Another bonus, being close to the train station, you have easy access to the Metro, taxis and bus services.

Good but not great
Pros: near the train station and some restaurants nearby if you want a quick bite, comfy beds, rooms are spacious, good breakfast, though there is variety; it’s the same stuff every day. The rooftop is cool for night drinks and the music is excellent especially JJJ Key with his house music. The rooms are clean though room 304 has tons of floor scuff marks, marks on the bathroom wall, the shower is small w some black mold/mildew on the left corner and water goes everywhere on the floor based on the weird door. Cons: I’m not sure if it’s Rome as a whole, but can people smile and be more welcoming? The only ones who were really nice and always smiled were the breakfast staff and cleaning staff. The front desk team is unwelcoming, never smiles, and it’s like you’re bothering them to ask for help. This was the first time ever in my years traveling, where to book a tour, the front staff hands you a book and you have to email the hotel company and do all the work. They can’t call for you? They can’t email you? The guest has to? Also, the main floor is super tight for luggage when checking in and very very hot. May I suggest a roll down screen or a window tint to reduce the sun and heat? Also the guests are probably unknowingly loud. Since the floors are all wood and stone, the hallways echo like crazy.
