The hotel offers modern rooms with a cozy feel and great air conditioning. The staff is exceptionally helpful and welcoming, providing a pleasant check-in experience. The location is fantastic, especially for travelers using the train station, but lacks a bit in terms of safety. The dining experience is decent with a good variety but nothing extraordinary. Overall, a great value for money stay with a few minor drawbacks.

The hotel offers clean and extremely spacious rooms, making it a great choice for a central location. The service was friendly overall but lacked communication during check-in. The brilliant location near Termini Station provides ease of transportation with some site attractions within walking distance. The dining options were excellent, especially for breakfast, although slightly limited. The facilities are well-maintained and contribute to an enjoyable stay.

The breakfast included a typical European spread with some variety, but there was a major concern about possible cross-contamination of gluten-free food. Despite that, the front desk staff was accommodating and the rooftop restaurant offered a fantastic view of Rome.

I was thrilled with my stay at this hotel! The room was incredibly spacious, larger than a standard king-size bed room, meticulously clean, and offered a wonderful fragrance from a diffuser. The high ceilings added a touch of elegance to the space. The staff were exceptionally helpful and provided fantastic advice on transport options and restaurant recommendations. The location was superb, just a couple of blocks from Termini station and within walking distance of many attractions. The dining experience was delightful on the 8th level, boasting spectacular city views. However, the area surrounding the hotel was not the safest. Overall, a great value for money with a memorable stay.
