Hotel Galatea  

Perfect Location right by the city center and small streets on the back with the best food we had in Rome. We could walk to anything (almost) in 10-15 minutes, and a boos outside took us to the Vatikan area. Clean and quiet rooms with good aircon, and a friendly staff. Could`nt be happier with our choice of hotel!!

The best thing was the size of the bathroom.

Breakfast... It doesn't offer you something worthy.. It's very hard to find something to eat at the "open buffet". If you have the option, room without breakfast go for it.. Don't spend money for that..

The room was simple, but clean.

The staff were very friendly and wanted to be helpful, but weren't very knowledgable about tourist information. For instance they suggested a gelato place nearby and marked it on the map, but there was no gelato place there. We asked for help finding the Colosseum and got directions, but he forgot to mention that most of Rome's streets were closed off for a reunificatoin celebration parade, so it was almost impossible to get to the Colosseum (which was also closed).

The hotel is walking distance from the Termini, on the 3rd floor of a block of flats italian style. There's a restaurant, gelateria and mini market on the same road. It is clean and comfortable

There were no coffee making facilities in the room nor was there a small fridge. These would have been useful as the hotel does not have a bar.

The staff was very nice and helpfull .

The entrance of the hotel was disappointed. at first we thougth that we were at wrong place.we get in a bloc of buildings and we were searching for the hotel.the breakfast was poor. there was no lobby-room . for the money that we paid we are not satisfy.

Nice clean room good people perfect location definately I will stay again

Centrally located but was hard to find initially. Clean room.

Breakfast consists of cold croissant and cold cake. There was no ham/cheese/fresh fruits. In short, it was not worth to include breakfast during the hotel stay. Hotel is located at level 3 of a private apartment and its lift was old and rusty. You have an alternative to walk 3 flights of stairs up to your room though, so this is not a big issue for young folks. But more mature travelers may want to take this into consideration. Hot water system was spoilt on one night. Hence all guests have to shower in freezing water. My wife and I stayed in hotel Galatea in December (winter). It was freezing and hence this was a terrible letdown.

The receptionists are very polite and nice. Rooms are comfortable and clean.The area is safe at night and the hotel is very quiet.Will definitely come again!!!

Everything is great. Just one detail: at breakfast there is nothing salty!

Everything OK, especially location - place is very nice.

It was rather cold in last days of November. Some hot water and your hotel will be a real paradise.

The stuff was friendly

The bed

The location of the hotel is good, close to a metro stop. It was reasonably quiet throughout our stay. A fantastic breakfast is included. The room was clean and comfortable.

The location is good but it is not very close to a metro station so bus is the option when it is not walking distance. The room was big, quite comfortable and the building was indeed traditional.

The breakfast is ridiculous. For a double room of 130 Euros someone would expect much more choices and better quality. There is almost nothing salty, only soft cheese and dried bread (not even normal bread!). Not fresh croissants, tiny pieces of a cake, jam, butter, some fruits and this is it. Nothing else! Even the main coffee machine is so bad, unacceptable for Italy. As least for coffee the situation is saved thanks to a smaller do-it-yourself espresso machine.

The staff was extremious friendly and willing to help! Rooms were very clean.

1. From the street you cannot recognize the hotel, it was not clear were to go to. 2. Room 305 has the smoke area right under the window, smoke comes into the room. 3. It was noisy; at 7.00am there was a lot of noice in the courtyard and at 7.15am the gallery was cleaned, the brush touched the fence over and over, also a lot of noice. 4. tv showed only Italian broadcasters. 5. Breakfast was poor; only some sweet buns/croissants and canned fruit, muesli, serial.
