Hotel Bolivar  

Staff where very good, breakfast was also very nice with interesting outlook, great location for sight seeing.

The bed was a nightmare could not sleep in rock hard with lumps, bathroom no shower curtain for overhead shower so forced to sit in bath and hand shower, toilet kept burping, so obviously problem with plumbing next question is difficult to answer not having stayed in this city before hard to compare to what is classed as acceptable

Location, location, location! Quiet location in a pedestrian courtyard but close to all the major sites. Great view from breakfast room. Staff were responsive and helpful. Modest room with basic bed and furniture, clean modern bathroom.

Shame about low quality sheets and towels, always scratchy and sometimes fraying- not good for sensitive skin or anyone who values good linen in a hotel.

This hotel is in a great location - near all the sites but in a quiet alley - away from the crowds. The rooms are small but elegant and clean. Staff was great and the breakfast offered just about everything you could want. It's a bit expensive - but probably because of the location. It's located near the Roman ruins - but still an easy walk to the Pantheon and the Spanish Steps. The breakfast is served in a upstairs room with a great view - and the food selection is more than adequate. We were pleased.

This hotel is a little expensive relative to others we checked and others we have used in Rome. Coffee wasn't very good (unusual for Italy). Otherwise all was great!

The location was great.Right in the centre of Rome and walking distance to the main attractions.Good shopping also close by.The room looked out over the city with panoramatic views.It was clean and spacious.Would definitly stay there again.Good value for money.

You had to pay for WIFI

Quaint and old-fashioned hotel, situated in a hard to find courtyard just off Via Nazionale. It gave you a feel of being in a country location despite being bang in the centre - quite a stroke of imagination to achieve that. It does not serve meals other tan breakfast but there is a quaint restaurant with good food just across the yard.

Overpriced despite the basic facilities - costs the same as the most modern Hilton which we were in the first night.

Location, confortable bed, quietness during the night

The noise in the morning with other people talking in the hall, children where almost playing in front of our door from 8 am.....

The location is great.

Prices are high for a simple hotel, don't expect luxury.

Hotel Bolivar had an excellent staff that were ready to help at anytime. They arranged for a taxi to pick us up from the airport, and he was on time waiting for us holding a sign with our names. The hotel also arranged seversl sight seeing tours to the Vatican, Sistine Chapel, and to Pompeii for a day. The breakfast was a great way to start the day and the hostess at breakfast was very clean and friendly.

The triple room was adequate space for two adults and a child, but the double room was a bit on the small side for two adults in twin beds. The tv had only a news channel in English, but my son didn't seem to mind watching cartoons in Italian.

I was in town for the Rome Marathon. I needed to be close to the start/finish and Hotel Bolivar was just down the road. I didn't take advantage of the breakfast as I always bring my own when running a race. The room was comfortable, though small, but I was alone so it didn't matter. It was nice to have an option to park my car for the day while I was running. I wish this trip to Rome had been longer but I would certainly use this hotel again if I make it back.

I didn't like being on the ground floor. I hear some street noise while I was trying to sleep. Nothing the hotel can do about that, I know.

Location and hotel staff.

Room was to small.

Location, friendly staff

The front desk guy, Rocco, was extremely helpful and spoke great English. He suggested a restaurant that was absolutely fantastic. The location of the hotel was extremely good, central to the sights and within walking distance of the termini train station (20 minute walk). The room was large and comfortable, breakfast was excellent, and the tv was good and had English stations.

The lady cleaning/serving breakfast was sick, she was coughing the entire time which is a pet peeve of mine as she was distributing the food. She also talked to herself The hotel is down a dark street (More like an alley), making it kind of scary to get to. It is also hard to find for the first time, luckily they still had their large sign lit up allowing it to be seen from the main streets. The hotel offers a shuttle to the airport, but it's a ripoff at €50. We went to another shuttle company that charged €31.

The hotel was beautifully decorated, very very central, very clean, friendly staff.
