Top Rome Hotel Reviews

Napoleon Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I recommend this hotel and would definitely stay there again. The location is perfect for site seeing with lots of walkable attractions near by or easy transit available. All the amenities were very clean. The lounge was spacious and comfortable and the hotel itself had beautiful and interesting decor. The check-in process was very easy and the staff were super helpful. Our family room was very spacious for our family of 4 and the beds were quite comfortable. The breakfast had hot and cold options with lots of fresh fruit and drinks available. We had a pleasant experience at Hotel Napoleon and would recommend it to family and friends."

UNA Hotels Decò Roma

8/10 Good

"If I could have rated them a 4.5, instead of a 4, I feel that it would be more appropriate. We stayed at this hotel after a transatlantic flight, and as a stop over prior to taking a cruise. We chose the hotel due to its proximity to Roma Termini, and the fact that the rooms had AC. Check-in was quick and efficient. We were given a room on the 2nd floor, and had a welcome bottle of wine and water,, a nice touch. There was a learning curve for the lights and AC. Our room was set to 23, and we couldn’t adjust it. A quick call down to the front desk, and it was dropped to 20. Shortly after that I realized that I needed to put my key in the slot by the door, and then I was able to control the AC and all the lights. Some reviews mentioned being able to hear a lot of street noise. I could only hear outside noise from the bathroom. The bedroom was quiet. Our only complaint was that we had requested an extra pillow from the front desk prior to going out for dinner, but never received it. The bed was a little firm for my liking, but I understand some people like firm mattresses. On the whole, this place was perfect for our needs. A five minute walk (with luggage) from Roma Termini, a clean air conditioned hotel, in an area that I felt safe in. We’re booked again post cruise, prior to flying home, and am looking forward to the stay."

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."

Cardo Roma, Autograph Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful Hotel!"

Hotel Artemide

10/10 Excellent

"Exceptional breakfast"

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."
