Best thing about Kolbe hotel is the location. Hotel is on a small quiet road, but still within´ walking distance to many sights of Rome. Hotel was clean and the room was ok. It wasn´t very big though, especially the bathroom, and we didn´t have much of a view... We stayed on the first floor and had our window to... More

My boyfriend and I were planning four nights in Rome, we had never been here before and because we didn't know the city we were finding it hard to find the right place. This 4star hotel was beautiful, absolutely spotless, staff tidied everything right down to lining up shoes every morning! The breakfast was by far the best continental I've... More

Booked into the hotel for 2 nights. Welcomed by a very friendly and helpful receptionist- always a good start. Room was,by Rome standards, a good size. It was clean and comfortable as was the bathroom. The bed too was comfortable, as were the pillows- which can often be a nightmare! Breakfast was an uninspiring buffet. There was a choice of... More

We travelled to Rome in January and it was a great decision to be going to Rome during winter! The temparature was relatively mild but none of the sights were overly crowded and everything was open. Kolbe Hotel was excellent - the room was huge and overlooked the garden - views of palm trees and the forum included. The bathroom... More

This hotel was in a perfect location for sightseeing in Rome. The room was lovely, the staff were helpful and breakfast was lovely. The view from the window wasn't great and the room was very expensive, but the location of the hotel really made up for this. It was right next to the Forum, yet the road we were on... More

My girlfriend and myself stayed they last year. We stayed there with anoth couple. We loved the hotel, breakfast was awesome!! Rooms are typical european in Nature. Shower rocked. We had a first floor room, which is kinda below ground. Not the best room for a view but great sleeping room. Staff was very helpful and helped us very much!!... More

I arrived back from Rome a few hours ago and feel so aggrieved that I am writing this immediately! Hotel Kolbe was a total disaster! Our room was located on the 1st floor right near the parking area so sleeping was not an option, every car that would pass would wake us up! The Air con was not working (room... More

When I booked this hotel through Expedia, the pictures and location seemed too good to be true. The Kolbe more than lived up to our expectations. The old monastery has been superbly converted in understated contemporary style. Even though the building is now a hotel, it still exudes an air of peace and quiet (though our room was on the...

The location of this hotel is the selling point – the Forum/Palatine is the front yard. You can walk around the Forum, past Circo Maximus to get to the main entrance and the Colosseum. The hotel is a converted convent, which makes for an interesting back story. Rooms are small but nice, we had one with a loft. The ceilings... More
