I stayed here with my entire family, we booked 5 rooms in total. check was easy, staff was friendly, rooms were small but clean. Who spends time in their room when in Rome. The area was safe, bathroom facilities were adequate and the price was amazing. if you are expecting an American type hotel then pay a ton of money... More

Positive: Cheap, clean room, bed was comfy, larger bathroom, good venue for Vatican and metro, safe in room. Great deli round the corner and shops. Negative: small room, horrible shower, not enough toiletries for 2 (didn't even get more on day 2), not enough towels for 2, basic breakfast, rubbish and noisy air con and the worst hairdryer I've ever...

I stayed for about a week in this hotel which has rated itself as a 4 star hotel and is in reality a 2 star hotel at its best. The room I got was on the ground floor, room #55, and was exactly the opposite of what the receptionist told me, very quiet. It was noisy in the daytime with... More

If you don't mind baby lizards in your room stay at this hotel! The front desk staff were absolutely unfriendly (verging on rude). When we brought our lizard to their attention, they started asked completely irrelevant questions! Also, there are no ironing facilities - quite surprising for a supposedly four star hotel. Terrible breakfast buffet. Very old premises. On a... More

TERRIBLE! I would never recommend this hotel. Yes the location is great and the hotel is a good value; however in the end, I would rather pay more than have to deal with rude hotel staff. I had a 2 part vacation in Rome; I arrived and stayed a 5 days at the hotel then left to visit family in... More

The hotel is very close to both the vatican and the vatican (ottaviano) metro stop, 2 minute walk max. As with all city breaks most people will spend most of the day out and about exploring the city seeing the sights and just be at the hotel to sleep. With that in mind the hotel fit its purpose very well,... More

(When was last time the hotel was checked for star rating),. It location is good, but they don't seem to keep up with maintenance to hotel . The owner needs... More

Before our Holland America M/S Noordam May 14, 2011 cruise, we spent a night at the Grand Hotel Olympic - Aurum Hotel, Via Properzio 2/a near the Vatican. The room was clean, nice, and quite adequate. The location was very good for us. It was easy walking distance (a few blocks) to the Vatican and a Metro stop. The front... More

A nice hotel in the Vatican area, but certainly not 4 star, more like 3 star. It was easy to find from either the bus or metro and there are plenty of buses servicing the area, we took #40 from Termini, we arrived early and only had to wait 10 mins for our room to be ready. Plus Points Clean,... More
