Top Rome Hotel Reviews

Massimi City Garden Hotel

Massimi City Garden Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Very helpful and pleasant staff. This hotel has an on-site restaurant that serves breakfast, lunch and dinner. The breakfast included with the hotel booking was very good. We had dinner here two nights, and all four of us loved our meals. The outdoor seating area was very pleasant. The hotel is a little bit of a hike from the center of Rome, but their shuttle service was good. We would return to this hotel if back in Rome."

Fabulous Village

10/10 Excellent
"Overall. It’s wonderful. It’s a nice change from hotels with a bit more space. It has a nice park and the pool area is great. The pool makes the whole place worth it. It’s a great way to cool down. The staff are friendly and kind. Zero complaints about i. The only complaints are: There is zero way to contact them via phone if you need to. You’ll get in an AI loop and then hung up on. The pool is only open from 10AM-8PM. It’s too hot in Rome to have such limited hours. Check in takes forever and the only benches are in the sun. And people are smoking non-stop at the pool in your face and your kids faces - especially when you are in the chairs at the pool. It’s 2026 - it should really be non-smoking. It’s disgusting."
