location was great however the street to get to hotel was off a main road not suggested if traveling on own or a couple of females just for the return at nights. the rooms are small but clean the main disappointment was there isnt a mini fridge in any rooms which we thought was standard in any hotel. the staff were helpful in terms of answering questions and gave a great tip to go to restaurants the locals dine at rather then near the hotel of which is ok in taste but a bit pricey. the highlight of stay was the terrace as you could kick back with a few drinks at night surround by the lights of rome - breathtaking

this hotel keeps what it promises. My room had a nice balcony over a quite street, with a view over the roofs of the city. I would recommend this hotel for anyone who wants to explore the main sites of Rome by foot...

ok, so I know Rome is a city where you have to spend a lot to get great quality, but I was very disappointed in our stay at the coliseum hotel. I will start with the staff. The only guy at front desk we thought was nice was the overnight front desk clerk. Other than that they would take our key from us when we left the room or take our passport from us and stick it in a slot behind the desk, but completely visible. I don't know if it was just us, but I did not feel safe with my key back to my country just sitting behind his front desk. Next, Lurch took us up to our room in the small, slow elevator. We got to our "double" room to find 2 twin beds. We pushed them together ourselves and removed the old outdated comforters. The next day they realized we pushed the beds together and gave us one larger sheet instead of 2 twins. The roof area was a nice place to sit and see Rome with a glass of wine and book. We felt more comfortable up there than in our room. The light fixtures looked like something out of the Adam's Family and don't expect any lights in the hallways. You have to turn them on yourself when you come and go. The room itself was an ok size but it could just use some updating. I can see what they were going for with the look but a coat of paint and new bedding would be nice. The bathroom was gross to me. It needed to be totally redone. The location was close to the train, old rome, st maggiore square and some nice restaurants. Far from everything else. We did not like walking to sites at night from this location although the street it was on was nice and quiet. 11 Euros per day for air conditioning. The only place we stayed in Italy that charged for air. Breakfast is another story. Let's just say we skipped it our last day in hopes of finding a McDonalds. If you like yogurt that has been sitting out all morning and warm milk in your cereal you are good. Besides that all you got were rolls and croissants and maybe a donut. And do not look for orange juice. The

The hotel itself is lovely. The email map was not so good! It is very conveniently located to Termini and to the ancient area but is tucked away on a back street. Once you know where it is - no problem. They just need a more specific or detailed map.

We have just returned from our 3 day trip to Rome. I booked this lovely little hotel for me, my boyfriend and another couple and was impressed! The hotel is tucked away from the main road of Via Cavour, and is situated 10 min walk to Termini and to the Colosseum itself! The area is busy being close to Termini. But from our rooms, all we heard was the church bells in the morning!!! Its ideal if you wish to jump on the sightseeing bus from Termini or spend the morning at the Colosseum and easy to find once you get your barings! The 3* hotel itself was very clean and well presented, the room was immaculate; had a big bed and TV, ample room for the wardrobe and a safe, the bathroom was immaculate too; clean all round, shower was great. Air conditioning is available (it is a saviuor in the heat!) and you can open the windows for extra air. Comparing all other hotels that are 3*, I would definitely say I came across a great place for £116 for the room per night. You can pay more for a 3* depending on location, but Via Cavour area is ideal. I would defintely recommend this hotel to any couples planning to visit. The roof terrace is spectacular to see, especially early in the morning before a light brekkie and coffee downstairs in the Breakfast Room. Ladies who served brekkie were cool and helpful, reception guys could have been more attentative - but we we werent too fussed as we were hardly around. All that mattered was that the hotel was a lovely little Haven for us after a hard day of walking... and walking... and eating!

The room is not incredibly large, but sufficient for two people. The bathroom is very clean and well maintained. The location is ideal for tourists. Breakfast was great, and the terrace was fantastic.

The room was quite small, and the colazione could use options besides pastry and cornflakes. However, the roof deck was very nice, and the service was exellent.

The breakfast was rather meagre but everthing was consistent with a 3" hotel in Italy. The Shower, although clean, had small amounts of mildewed grout that needed attention.

From Marie-Joelle Antoine - France

Nice hotel, very conveniently located (metro Cavour, Sta Maria Maggiore, Forum). The only negative points would be the size of the single room I got (really small but I'm used to it ...) and the breakfast that was well served (buffet) but a bit monotonous. Apart from this, I would definitely recommend this hotel.

Great location. Quiet rooms and located on a quiet street, apart from the occasional scooter but then this is Rome! I would stay here again and always recommend it to friends/family.
