We enjoy staying at this hotel. This was our second stay. It is in walking distance to Roma Termini. It is centrally located making it effortless to walk to many of the known sites and several restaurants nearby. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The rooftop bar is an added bonus. I highly recommend this hotel.

Great stay and location. Would stay again and recommend. Family room has 2 king beds and 2 twin beds (1 of each in each connected rooms), they connect very conveniently. Also, 1 room had a small balcony and the other had an extra bed under the twin which is interesting. Breakfast was OK, should be free and included for what you actually get in our opinion, not any different than a continental breakfast served anywhere else. Overall, good choice.
