I would have rated Galles higher, but they had some problem our first night and put us in a much smaller hotel a good half mile away. It wouldn't have been a big deal if they didn't claim it would only take a day to fix only to overhear them tell other customers the same thing the day we left. It felt pretty suspicious to our whole group. Other than that, when we actually stayed IN Galles, it was beautiful. We had a 2 story room with a huge bathroom. The A/C didn't work as well as we would have liked (we were there in July) and the heat from the shower tended to rise into the upstairs bathroom, but other than that there were no problems. The staff at the front desk alternated from not caring enough to listen to a question before walking off into a back room to someone kind enough to schedule a tour for us. The included breakfast was nicer than those we had at other Italian hotels, and we were grateful for the hotel allowing us to store our luggage there after checkout. I'd recommend it to travelers willing to spend a little more than some places to be within 3 blocks of Roma Termini and near hostels with young people. There were also a couple of decent restaurants and a super market nearby.

It was a shame that we had too stay in the second building of the hotel. furthermore this part was still in the process of rennovation, so our balcony was a mess and there was no minibar in the room.

In past few years my family have travel many countries by ourselves .This is the first time I travel in Italy for 18 days which is a good trip . And I must say hotel 'Gelles' is the worst hotel in my trip . Even it’s located in a convenient place near Termini Station and looks elegant . But it too old so the air-condition is noisy and doesn’t work well (the room is always hot ) , and the window isn’t sealed well which make us seem sleeping on the street (the hotel is located by a heavy traffic street ), and the room is very crowded . At last , part of the counter (the older one) is not very tender who doesn’t care the guest’s feeling and opinion . So I am very regret to make 3 nights reservation and I don’t recommend this hotel to anyone . If the hotel won’t promote their equipment and attitude their price should reduce a half which is worthless .

As was mentioned in other reviews, we were taken to a hotel around the corner after checking into Hotel Galles, but it was okay as we expected that. We were a little worried at first because the hallways leading to our room were a little scary. The carpet was stained, there was a thick layer of dust on the railings and just generally didn't look very good. However, our room was beautiful with a large, marble bathroom, nice towels, an upstairs loft with plenty of storage space, flat screen t.v and a marble balcony with beautiful french doors and high celiings. We were very impressed. The hotel was not in the greatest part of town, but was close to train station making it extrememly convenient to get in and out of town. We walked to most of the sights we wanted to see, but there was also a metro stop only a couple of blocks away which was also convenient to use. Most of the staff was friendly and those who weren't, were not rude, just not overly helpful/friendly. Breakfast was pretty typical but good and lasted until 10am which is later than most places we stayed. We were pleased with what we got for the money we paid.

Room and the bath size are good. Nobody smiles at you at the hotel but anyway the bathroom and closeness to train station makes this hotel a good choice.

My travel agency made a mistake and my family and friends (10 of us!) had no place to stay in Rome upon arrival. I found Hotel Galles on Venere.com and was nervous about making a reservation the day before arrival. I used the ratings and price on this site to choose a hotel and it worked very well. The Hotel Galles is clean and quiet. The breakfast is excellent and they don't run out of food. It is located in a safe, nice, and convenient location in Rome. Considering the price this is a great buy. I would stay there again.

We(4pax) stayed at galles for 3 nights. The room offered is quite historic but really dark. The breakfast is fine except coffee. Some receptionists don't speak English. The hotel is situated near the Termini, just only 5 minute walk from there. * Overall impression * I recommend this hotel for a tourist who would like to feel something Italian there, but a tourist with kids or familly.

Quite a good place to stay for a few days in Rome, close to Termini railroad station (5 min. walking). Kindness of employees at the desk is variable, breakfast is ... average. Depending on the period, price may be overvalued
