Tasteful and peaceful hotel in a quiet location close to Colosseum, with good transport links into town. Delightful and quiet room, good staff, roof terrace where you can eat breakfast and take drinks. Plenty of good, small eateries nearby, but you'd have to go a bit further for a top class meal. Our bar bill was more than we would have expected.

Close to colesseum and other historic sites. Staff responded respectfully and helpfully to my questions and to my request for ice. Breakfast was a great feature. Light switches did not work well. Wasted a lot of time trying to find out what switch turned off what light.Also needed to plug in a breathing device for all night operation and had a problem with the plug in the wall -it didn,t want to work or stay on.

Location - perfect for the colosseum - 5 minutes walk away. Some lovely restaurants and pubs close by. Room (219 - twin) clean, minibar standard overpriced drinks ok room size for Italian hotel. Breakfast standard buffet - if you want a full English breakfast you wont get this here. The reception staff very very friendly and incredibly helpful, would like that service in all the hotels I have stayed in. We came to Rome to do the marathon, brilliant for that as 5 minutes away from the start and finish. Good situation if you dont mind the 10 minute walk to other attractions e.g Spanish steps, Trevi Fountain. Would stay here again bu Rooms (219) good - we were 'upgraded' but think we were changed from double to twin as not married. Not that happy with being in a twin room but we pushed beds together.

Location We staued in a Deluxe room which we paid extra 40 euros for, it was a standard in my eyes & extremely over priced, very average room. No views from rooms. Pictures on Internet of roof terrace not a true reflection. Adequate accommodation.

Very friendly and generally efficient. Room clean and reasonably presented and decorated Breakfast very good Complimentary prosecco on arrival was great idea. Water in room excellent. Room a little sparse and not very homely, high ceilings not helping, one leather chair and little else to relax away from the bed area. Basin blocked but dealt with as requested. Shower cold on second day and slight odour coming from shower when door left open? Overall room three to four stars, with this proviso we would recommend to others

Hotel staff were so friendly and helpful, gave us a map right away and highlighted all of the places to see and go, they recommended good places to eat and called taxis for us whenever we needed them. Is a stone's throw away from the Colloseum and the Forum, beautiful location.

The Capo d'Africa is a really excellent hotel. The staff are brilliant, especially thebreakfast team, located only 600m from the Colosseo metro station, the rooms are clean, quiet with excellent beds. The breakfast was one of the best we had ever experienced and passed the 'freshly squeezed orange juice, test. Highly recommended, as is the Da Mancha restaurant around the corner. The lack of English speaking tv channels (cnn only).

I did not like that they do not tell you that getting coffee at the included continental breakfast is not included. We were surprised with the charges at the end of the trip.
