Paola, Peru

Staff excellent. Bus stop outside hotel door to go to most city attractions, Pantheon, Trevi, Colloseum, Termini station. Yet all approx. 15mins walk if you want. Vatican also 15min walk away.

Kenneth, India

The breakfast was perfect and the staff very friendly

Margaret, Ireland

The location for a tourist couldn't be better as it was in easy reach of all the main tourist attractions ... The staff were ultra friendly and helpful especially at reception..... Nothing was too much trouble and the advice they gave us always turned out to be spot on .Room was warm and the bed was big and comfy but the thing I was most pleased about was the room was quiet and the shower was brilliant !!

눉Can't say I didn't like anything, would of been nice to have a night cap after the day of exploring fabulous Rome. A bar would be a good addition. Hotel a bit tired looking, whoever was clean and comfortable.
눇Hotel was situated in a central position. Staff very helpful. Breakfast ok, but could of had some fresh fruit and maybe a boiled egg. On the whole my stay was a pleasant one.

눇The location of the hotel was good. The breakfast was good.
