My husband and I booked a private room and were so please with how clean the room was! Eric was very helpful and even upgraded our room. The added complimentary bottle of wine was nice too! The location is convenient to the Termini station. I definitely recommend this place!

Friendly staff, clean rooms and washrooms, and free computers/wifi. Definitely one of the best hostels I have been to so far. Only downside is no big space to meet other travellers. A big plus was that it is a 5 minute walk from Roma Termini, which means it is very easy to access all major tourist sites by metro.

I was skeptical to stay here due to the name of this place. We were originally booked into a shared room with two other people, however we did not want to share a room. We called two days before we arrived and the manager had no private rooms available. He offered us a room inside his mother's house. It was... More

We arrived at funny palace to a warm welcome, bottle of wine and some great recommendations as to what to do in our few days in Rome. The room was clean and the bathroom was excellent with a great shower (we booked a deluxe double). Location was good but traffic noise from the road below was bad and combined with... More

One of the best hostels I've ever stayed in. The owner and staffs were so friendly, the room and bathrooms so cleaned, tidy and warm. Close to the main station in Rome and the owner showed us how to go to the best places in the city. Definitely recommend this hostel!

It was the best hostel that we've been. When we arrived, the owner gave us a free bottle of wine and he upgrade our room for free. He also gave us all the direction to see the best attraction in town. It was very clean and near the Termini. I really recomand this hostel!

Our stay at this hotel may explain the varried reviews this place has received. Our first night was spent in an excellent room with great AC and a hot shower. The next night we were moved to a building next door where the room was well furnished but had terrible AC and cold showers. We were told we did not... More

Let me start by saying that the Funny Palace is an excellently priced, safe and friendly hostel for those looking to stay in Rome as cheaply as possible. However, it does have one worrying feature, one that shall cause some alarm to those who are perhaps too lazy/arrogant/mildly-stupid to read all of the instructions on your internet booking, and it...
