We booked this hotel for a short trip and wanted somewhere central. The hotel itself is walkable (20 minutes) from the train station which was convenient and 15 minutes to the colosseum and trevi fountain, so the location is excellent for this. The building itself is old and has an elevator to the hotel on floor 3 which is fine and it’s fairly easy to locate.
The staff were welcoming and friendly, they let us check in early because our room was ready and stored our suitcases so we could explore on the final day after checkout time which was helpful. The main downside of this hotel is the noise, wow the noise. We had the small double which looked out onto the main road/side road which we accepted would be noisy in central Rome but the internal noise is something else. There is a big door separating rooms from reception which doesn’t seem to be used. The doors to the rooms are very thin so you can hear everything going on outside. If you’re a heavy sleeper you might just cope.
The breakfast is nice, basic but nice. The terrace outside is lovely.
We did ask for a recommendation for dinner one night and were given a business card for a restaurant which the lady said was very nice and she’d tried herself. When we looked on their website we saw that they were owned by the same chain as the hotel. We didn’t go, we wanted a genuine recommendation.
Overall, wouldn’t stay again but fine for a short trip. Lady on checkout wasn’t surprised when we said it was too noisy.
