Three of us stayed at Hotel Galileo for three nights starting Boxing Day this year. The location is brilliant. Like other reviews have said, just a short walk from Termini station and we even found we were able to walk to all major sites such as the Colosseum, Trevi Fountain etc too. The only time we needed to get transport... More

We stayed at this hotel for 5 days it's located near Castro Petrorio Station or 5-10 mins walk to Termini and 10-15 mins walk to Republika. The hotel was clean and neat and the breakfast is good. There's also a Pinoy restaurant closeby "Pinoy Fast Food" where we used to eat for dinner. Location is perfectly safe since on the... More

The partition between the rooms is not a concrete structure. One can even listen to people snore in the night with no privacy to talk normal. The rooms are dark and lack in ventilation and air. The hotel has obligatory hidden tax before depart. The reception staff lacks in manners. I would strongly not recommend this hotel. More

Dear Sir, We are sorry that you did not feel comfortable in our hotel, but please allows us to point out the following situations: - The room assigned to you is exposed to the south and has a terrace, so it is extremely bright; - The city tax has been communicated at your arrival at the hotel and we confirm...

Nice sized twin room, great central location, easy to get around, close to the train station. Buffet breakfast to start the day and fantastic staff ready with a map, directions and information to make your stay in Rome as stress free as possible. Would stay here again. More

We stayed in 9 hotels which were all 3 stars across Europe. This review is based on the fact it is a 3 star hotel. Out of all the hotels we stayed in only one 3 star hotel was better than this one, and that was the hotel Kyriad at Disneyland Paris. Any hotel around Disneyland i would expect superior... More

Our visit was in Aug 2011 the weather was 38c everyday so coming back to our room after a long day seeing the sights of Rome was just bliss!!

The double room was excellent. The lights, colour were too good. The bathroom was pretty big and clean. The balcony opening to the sky was awesome. I will definitely want to come back. But the Internet was not working and that was a bit disapponting. More

We have just arrived back today from a week at the Galileo. Quite simply it was a fantastic place to stay. The staff could not have been more friendly, helpful and considerate. They were able to advise on restaurants, areas for shopping, routes to visit places and much more. Although check out is at 11a.m. our flight was not until... More
