Rome Hotels > £80 to £99 Rome Hotels

Advantages: location, beautiful rooms, clean, tidy, rooftop terrace
Disadvantages: staff are unwelcoming at first

...so I decided upon the Valadier hotel due to its reasonable prices, good write up on a few traveling websites and its location. Set off on a cobbled side street off the Piazza del Popolo, the hotel has 60 guest rooms and is approximately 35km (approximately 21 miles) from Fuimicino Airport and is within walking distance of the Rome metro system and most of the main sights to see when visiting Rome. In terms of distance, the Spanish Steps are only ...
...a hotel named after Giuseppe Valadier who designed the Piazza del Popolo in the early 1800s. As I approached the front doors after finally finding the side street off the Piazza del Popolo I was filled with a sense of dread. I had paid 170 Euros (approximately £130) per night for a standard double room so was expecting a pretty top notch hotel only to be greeted by a rather dull façade that looked grimy and in need of a good sandblasting. The fears ... Read review

Advantages: Not a lot
Disadvantages: A lot

I booked into this hotel on the basis that it was relatively cheap for a so called 4 star hotel. Pros: - Staff were friendly - Rooms were actually appartments with fridges etc Cons: - Rooms were very old fashionned - did not seem to have been decorated for 30 odd years. - No bath, only a shower. - Shower did not drain very well and therefore had to limit showers to a couple of mins. - There was a high charge to use the swimming pool (may ...
...Most guests were american school children - not the most relaxing - Breakfast was poor at best - There was a charge for car parking (10 euro a day I think) - It is difficult to get to and from the airport so taxi is essential - The underground station was a fair walk and the area is not very nice (we had an attempted pickpocketting and mugging). Conclusion: Overall as you can probably tell I was not happy and in hindsight i would have gladly ... Read review

Advantages: Clean, comfortable, helpful staff
Disadvantages: None!

...is very fast and often wreckless and drivers do not always stop to let pedestrians cross the roads. Overall, we had a very pleasant stay. The rooms were clean and air-conditioned and the atmosphere was very friendly. I would strongly recommend the Relais Vaticano hotel for short stays. ... Read review

Advantages: A must see in Rome
Disadvantages: It's only a fountain

Ah, the Trevi Fountain. Some would say that it's the most beautiful fountain in all of Rome. Well, I wouldn't know about that - not having visited all 7,000 of them. Ok, that's maybe an exagerration, but there are quite a few of the old fontanas dotted around the eternal city. One thing's for sure though, it's certainly an impressive site...or sight, even. You would think that such a world famous and much visited tourist attraction would be situated ...
...when you've arrived at the Trevi Fountain - the street sign and the appearance of a rather large cascade of sparkling aqua should give you a clue, but if that doesn't do it for you then the huddled masses and click'n'whirr of countless photographic implements will. Still not sure you're at a major tourist attraction? The hawkers and street vendors aggressively punting their 'high' quality tat should put you straight. There's quite a bit of history ...

Advantages: continental breakfast; outdoors swimming pool
Disadvantages: THE ENTIRE HOTEL BADLY NEEDS RESTORATION, REFURBISHING & SANITATION!

I stayed at Summit from 14th to 16th May 2008. Location is TRAGIC. It is not in Rome, franklly speaking, it is hardly in Rome. Rather in some village. It takes 3 (THREE) hours to walk from Colosseum (and other places of interest) to Summit. Going by bus will hardly help as the bus runs once per hour. The place itself is easily recognizable by a smell of horseshit. There are marks of water on the walls and ceilings in all parts of the hotel. And it ...
...swimming pool - but I saw no one there. The breakfast is served only from 7 am - even if we had to leave to Rome for the forum and conference (which, thank God, was not held at "Summit") at 7:45 already. The food is good but standard (the sausage, omelette, boiled eggs, cheese, ham, juice, coffee, pastries). The reception demands 100 EUR from you as the deposit in case you'd drink all contents of the minibar. In the room itself there is only a shower ... Read review
