Napoleon Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great location and a great stay!"

The Cross Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was super helpful and can assist you in English in getting settled in and getting around (calling taxi etc). The property is secure and they have people checking that only guests are on the premises. It’s also very well lit at night so you can walk around the gardens and bar safely. The comfort room was spacious and mine had a balcony. The building itself has a beautiful balcony overlooking the neighborhood. The hotel is super accessible to train, trams, and buses all within 10min walking distance. Was also walkable to the Colessuem (20 min). They had breakfast for €10 but I didn’t not use that service as there were plenty of cafes and groceries nearby. Also walkable to the Termini (15 min) for transport to other cities or to the airport. Overall, great stay and wonderful spot to explore Rome."

Casa per Ferie Domus Helena

10/10 Excellent

"Everything about the Domus Helena was perfect for our 8-day visit to Rome. To start, the staff was amazing and helpful. They gave us tips on where to eat and what to visit and were always very accomodating to what we needed. The AC in the rooms was a welcome relief from the July heat, and the room was always clean and fresh. We really appreciated the morning breakfast with a vast assortment of food and goodies to munch on before we started our day. To give an idea, the hotel is about a 5-minute walk away from the nearest Metro station and about a 12-minute walk from the Colosseum. We will definitely stay at the Domus Helena on our next visit to Rome!"

Hotel Giubileo

8/10 Good

"In an ideal location right next to st Mary basilica, loads of shops, restaurants and bars only 30-40m walk from the likes of the Colosseum, the Spanish steps, Trevi fountain and also near transport links if you don't fancy walking it. The only issue I had with the room, which tbf wasn't too much of an issue as I wasn't in the room that much but the outside windows [the windows were double with an inner and outer window] were cracked and the toilet seat slipped but these are minor things and not to put anybody off staying here."
