Hilton Garden Inn Rome Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay!"

Aria Palace by OMNIA Hotels

10/10 Excellent

"Because it’s a new property, the hotel is exceptionally clean. I really enjoyed the breakfast, and the entire staff was friendly and attentive to all of my requests. The location is very convenient to Termini Station, though you will need to take a quick bus ride to reach the main attractions in Rome."

The Hoxton, Rome

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel was fantastic. Our room was clean, well stocked with water. The full breakfast was a perfect way to begin our day. Everything was delicious. The staff at the front desk were very friendly and helpful. They helped us out with information about getting around Rome and some bookings. They also booked our transportation back to the airport."

UNA Hotels Decò Roma

10/10 Excellent

"One of favorites in Rome. Very close to Termini so easy access to train, metro and taxi. Can easy walk to most of the city highlights. Hotel is always very clean, staff is very helpful and friendly, breakfast team is fantastic. Rooms are adequate in size for Rome but some can be a little tight with large luggage. Splurge for an upgrade for more room. Not much of a view from the hotel but you’re not here to stay in your room. Definitely recommend it, and we’ve been coming here annually for 15-years."

Fabulous Village

8/10 Good

"That’s a good and comfortable place to stay. Market, air space, parking and service available Taylored for every costumer but they need to review chek out time from 10 up 12 o clock. Check in: if room are already available, they can allow check in before 2pm specially for people landing from early flights"
