Hotel Villa delle Rose, Rome

Great location good service A little overpricing. Good to stay during Summertime though!

The hotel is very near to the train station so it very convenient. Hotel is a bit old but well maintained. Some slight smell in the room and floor is a bit uneven. Unfortunately, on one of the day we are staying, there was a black out and there was no electricity in the cold winter morning. When we come back in the evening, there was a generator providing electricity to hotel until next morning when we check out. Quite noisy with the generator on throughout the night.

Basic

Ants in room and son found one n his breakfast food. A/c didn’t work well. Room was dingy.

Location is good proximity to train station, restaurants and attractions on that side of Rome. Lobby was staffed 24 hours which made it seem safe and the clerk was helpful. Room itself was EXTREMELY small and was located just above an outdoor cafe of some sort, so the evening noise was very disturbing and not peaceful at all. Bathroom had been remodeled and although it was small, it was clean and shower was good. Almost impossible to walk between bed and wall! Breakfast was ok, but some hard boiled eggs and fresh fruit would have been welcome. We had to leave extremely early the day we departed and could not even get a cup of coffee. It seemed some renovations were underway off the lobby which would make a nice sitting area.

It was close to Termini station for overnight stay leaving early morning. When we entered the room, it was smelling bad so we requested to have a new room and they were happy to give us a new room. It is a good basic hotel with very friendly staff and there are lots of restaurant nearby for good food

Let’s start with the good points; location was fantastic, close to the main station and also in a fairly quiet spot. The included breakfast had a good spread to choose from. Service was helpful and friendly. On the negative, our room wasn’t as pictured on the booking site. It had only a small window high up on one wall so no view to the outside. The aircon barely worked, even set to its lowest setting the room stayed up in the high 20’s, hard to sleep at night when that hot. The mini ‘fridge’ was only a couple of degrees cooler than the room (useless). I can only speak for the room we had, others may be better.

In a neighborhood full of fake, dirty and fishy hotels, this is a gem. Price/quality surpassed all my expectations. Beautiful house, friendly service, spacious room, nice breakfast. Absolutely satisfied and will save this place for future stays close to Termini when traveling in Italy.
