Hotel berhampiran JD Sports, Rome

This is the best option for hostel stay in Roma. I was in a 4-bed dorm room, and all beds had sliding doors for extra privacy. When not being used the beds could also be locked from outside. There was a storage drawer under the bed which was very spacious and could be locked using the same key as the bed. The ensuite bathroom was good, but the door didn't seem to close tightly enough, in my opinion, even though the lock worked fine. This was the only negative of my stay really, but the impact wasn't high as I had considerate room-mates. I used the kitchen quite a bit to heat food, and although I didn't participate in staff organised meals, these were a nice touch. The hostel had a secure entrance as well, which I appreciated. The location was really nice too - about a 15-minute walk away from the Roma Termini station. And in the walking distance there are several fantastic restaurants for every budget. I particularly enjoyed a nice Bangladeshi one that was only a 15 minute walk away from the hostel. There was also a huge supermarket about 5min away that I didn't need to use, but appreciated its proximity anyway. Had a great experience overall, and I would stay here again.

Only two stars but spotlessly clean. Lovely room and super shower room. Bed was firm but comfortable. Fridge in the room. Coffee machine and snack machine near reception. No lift. Room only. Area is a bit run down. Lovely park 100 metres away with pavement cafe/bar doing basic snacks. Would go there again

Clean, comfortable, spacious room. Many & varied breakfast options. Comfortable air conditioned lounge downstairs off lobby. Proximity to bus, train, restaurants, mini markets and laundry (10 euro W&D) was excellent for 5 days in Rome. Disappointing check-in experience was had and witnessed twice, but fortunately this was the only blight on our stay.

Our stay at the Hotel Archimediocre was strange to say the least. The hallways and common areas were fairly nice, and the breakfast was okay. However the rooms were a rather different story. Our room was shared between three, and two of the beds were pushed up against each other so we had to essentially share a bed. The sheets and towels were unclean and there was hair all over them, suggesting they hadn’t been cleaned properly. My sheets also had holes in them. The shower was inconvenient, as there was no shower curtain and no plug, so we had to take showers sitting down in the bath (which was stained). The privacy was limited. Our window looked out onto a utility area which was very dirty. The utility area also seemed to be used as a smoking spot for the staff. However, since the window was not airtight, the smell of cigarettes filled our room frequently. What’s more, our blinds didn’t close all the way and we saw the staff looking into our room through the window several times. Our friend’s door handle fell off the door too, which made opening and closing the room difficult. The air conditioning was functional, however it made our room smell disgusting. Since our trip was in the spring this was not too much of an issue, but had we travelled a few months earlier this would have been another story. The staff were not unkind but neither were they overly warm. However, the location of the hotel was good, and our stay overall was not too bad.

Sono certa che ognuno di noi abbia la propria scala di fattori per valutare se un posto e' bello o brutto ma che siano le persone il valore aggiunto. In questo hotel pulito, carino e molto comodo , vicino alla stazione di Roma Termini sono proprio le persone che fanno di un piccolo hotel, un punto di riferimento per i nostri viaggi a Roma. Paola della reception e' stata, ed è, la persona che ci ha seguito in fase di prenotazione e che si è fatta in quattro per aiutarci a proiettare le nostre fotografie su una parete, di una saletta allestita solamente per noi, un gruppetto di fotografi arrivati in città per un corso di fotografia di due giorni. Grazie Grazie Grazie cara Paola, sei preziosa per l'hotel e per le persone che soggiornano da voi.. un infinito grazie da tutti noi. Federica

Had low expectations after reading reviews, but the accom was fine and good value for money. Location meant I could walk to practically all the sights, and still make connecting trains/flights with minimal hassle. Bathroom was roomy and included some shampoo etc. Mini fridge was cold and kept my Tim-Tams from melting any further (Australians, amirite). Bed was comfy, and clean. Aircon was kinda the little aircon that couldn’t, but the white noise from it doing its darnedest helped block out the street sound (which wasn’t that bad anyway considering location). The continental brekky in the morning was nothing extravagant but I did have about 5 bowls of really yummy muesli and 5 cups of OJ so I was pretty happy. Obviously niche travellers will read that and book straight away. Also the restaurants nearby are good, had a ripper pizza from across the road one night. Other guests in the hotel were friendly, as was the concierge when checking out. First fella when checking in seemed a bit unhappy to have customers, a la Bernard Black. All in all I’d stay again.

The room itself it's very nice, very spacious and the bed was comfortable. The location was great too, a very decent distance to all the attractions around by walk e.g Trevi Fountain.. alternatively bus stop is very near. Staffs were not that helpful as we have requested slippers few times and none was sent throughout a two day stay. One male staff at the front desk doesn't look at you when you're talking to them, which is very rude in my opinion.

Siamo stati qui per il ponte del primo maggio, avevamo dei coupon per tre notti che prevedevano comunque una maggiorazione per questo periodo, e non ci aspettavamo ovviamente il lusso, ma sono rimasta delusa da alcuni aspetti e scrivo questa recensione in modo un po’ combattuto. Sui punti a favore sicuramente la posizione , ottima per i mezzi, si raggiungono facilmente la metro e gli autobus, come come la stazione, e una volta imparate le strade anche il centro o i principali monumenti non sono poi così distanti a piedi (dai 10 minuti ai 20). In hotel sono anche stati cosi gentili da tenerci i bagagli anche dopo il check out, perché avevamo il treno nel tardo pomeriggio, in modo da non girare tutto il giorno con lo zaino in spalla. La camera ok, pulita e grande il giusto, solo il bagno un po’ piccolino e senza bidet, ma per pochi giorni ci si può accontentare. La delusione riguarda i servizi. All’accoglienza abbiamo aspettato fuori dalla porta 20 minuti perché non funzionava il campanello e ho dovuto chiamare al telefono più volte. Il manager non si è mai visto se non al check out e in hotel non trovavamo quasi mai nessuno.. prima delle 9 e dalle 15 non c’è anima viva… non abbiamo ricevuto informazioni o suggerimenti in merito a spostamenti, posti eventualmente da visitare o dove mangiare, o su eventi.. nessuna indicazione pratica… in realtà ci siamo sentiti abbastanza abbandonati a noi stessi…. Unico suggerimento un bar per fare colazione l’ultimo giorno e tra i più cari della città…. La biancheria in camera veniva cambiata solo su richiesta…. Zero convenzioni con bar e ristoranti, ed essendo un bed &breakfast potrebbe essere utile.. inoltre Roma è una città indubbiamente grande e non si può pretendere di raggiungere tutto in pochi minuti a piedi, ma una volta imparate scorciatoie e strade giuste ci si sposta anche abbastanza rapidamente, basterebbe magari prendere una strada a destra piuttosto che a sinistra… peccato che noi lo abbiamo capito solo l’ultimo giorno… avessimo avuto più indicazioni forse ci saremmo evitati tanti km inutili….. e avremmo visto più cose…. Detto questo, rimane una buona soluzione per la posizione ma la cura del cliente è decisamente da rivedere per questo ritengo i prezzi un po’ sopra le righe…

Nice hotel perfectly situated between Via del Corso and Pantheon. A distinguished hotel with nice rooms and good beds. Nice straff and good cleaning. We liked the roof garden where we could eat our breakfast. The breakfast was rather simple, but ok. Missed some vegetables. You will feel very safe here because you have to pass several policemen on your way in. The plate in front of the parlament is closed to the public.

We didn't expect it to be that good! The place is great with all facilities you need. The staff is helpful, and the check in and check out was super easy. The room was good and clean. The only con is that the bus from the center of Rome back to hu is often packed with people and late, plus you have to wait for a while on the stop for the next ones to arrive.
