I don't get all the negative reviews in here. First of all, the location couldn't be better - a two minute walk from Termini Train Station, from where you can go anywhere in Rome and Italy. The staff were very helpfull - Vinni helped me with my trip to Pompeij and Kahn (who once worked as a chef) even cooked... More

The location does not excuse the facilities available. The front door into the building doesnt shut, the stairwell is old with the railings falling off and water leakage. It gets slightly better as you enter the rooms, it's been tiled recently however in our bath/shower you have to hold the shower head as there is no holder! And I wouldn't... More

I thoroughly enjoyed the hostel. It was well priced for the two nights with spacious rooms, free internet access (computer provided on 2nd floor) and wifi. Staff were helpful. The hostel is extremely well situated in the Colosseum, Forum area and is fairly close to metro. Very close to Termini as well for those travelling in from shuttle bus or... More

I very much enjoyed my stay there in Rome and was extremely pleased with the kindness of the staff and their flexibility regards times etc... I booked a single room with shared bathroom but was very kindly given a lovely double room with en-suite which was lovely. Will definitely stay there again!!!

The triple room is satifying of our needs as a family of three. The hot water supply is good and it is so handy for us to travel as it is near the subway station and the staff here can give us good advices to eat and travel. We like to sleep here again if back to Rome.

Stayed here for three nights, and had a great time! They provided free, delicious dinner and wine on the weekend, and made such a big effort to make sure everyone was happy/comfortable. Some of the dorms have private balconies which is cool, and there's a big kitchen where you can keep fruit/food and save money eating. Downstairs the showers have... More

Stayed here for one night in while in Rome. Was happily surprised to have our own private bathroom seen as I had booked to share a bathroom. The lady in the day time was pretty moody and unhelpful, even when we asked for help she was a bit useless. However the man at reception during the evening/night was extremely helpful... More

This place ticked the boxes for out family trip to Rome to watch Scotland in the 6 nations. It was cheap and it was central. Once in the room the beds were comfortable and the room was clean and fresh. The downside it the stiars leading to the hostel, which must not be owned by the hostel. There was obstructions... More

My partner and I stayed at Hostel Beautiful for five days over the New Years period of December 2010 to January 2011 and overall we found the quality of the hostel to be quite poor. It should be noted that we are not particularly picky travelers and Hostel Beautiful does have some redeeming factors, however I would certainly not choose... More
