The Pantheon
Review of Pantheon & Piazza della Rotonda by medgenie

Advantages: Very unusual building
Disadvantages: No

The Pantheon is an interesting place in Rome. It is the best preserved ancient building in Rome, used to be a temple for pagan worshippers but it's now a catholic church. It has a very unusual design. It's circular and the walls roll up into a dome at ... Read review

Piazza Navona
Review of Piazza Navona by medgenie

Advantages: Worth going

It's one of my favourite piazza in Rome. This is a square full of people day and night, with restaurants and cafes surrounding it. The centre of the square is the Fountain of the Rivers with the obelisk and the Fountain of the Moor with the God of Sea. Th ... Read review

The Vatican
Review of Vatican by medgenie

Advantages: Must-go for catholics
Disadvantages: No

As a Catholic, going to Vatican is like going to Mecca for Muslims or the Ganges for the Hindus. It's been my dream since my baptism. The Vatican's 44 hectares of land make it the smallest state in the world but the biggest tourist attraction. It is an i ... Read review

A friendly staffed hotel
Review of Relais Vaticano, Rome by funky_frankie888

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

Our experience of this hotel was a very good one. We are a family of 4 so we stayed in a quad room (with 2 double beds) for 3 nights. DO NOT BE PUT OFF BY THE FRONTAGE OF THIS HOTEL! It appears to be very small and tacky but the interior of the hotel ... Read review

Review of Circus Maximus by proxam

Advantages: A quiet spot to escape the tourist frenzy of Rome
Disadvantages: Quiet!

Energetic and awesome
Review of Rome in general by eviltass

Advantages: full of life, showing feelings, traffic
Disadvantages: Hostel in rome, two short

The first thing I noticed and got touched by was the traffic. Everyone was honking their horns and going zigzag. To compare the traffic with Sweden it was awful and noisy, but the most important of all: energetic and full of life. I was trying to film i ... Read review

Wow the compexities and intricacies that are Rome you sum up in eight lines. This year i wrote a three thousand word essay on the Colosseum alone. busy roads are generic to every major city and i gesticulate crap drivers every day. What about the Colosseum give detail, the coffee shops, Domus Aurea, The Pantheon, Trajans column describe things that are uniquely Roman etc. I think it is a flim flam review at the very least. Why did you even bother by tayloa22

Three cons and a fountain
Review of Trevi Fountain 25, Rome by proxam

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 ar ... Read review

SUMMIT? JUST THE OPPOSITE!
Review of Summit Roma Hotel, Rome by comdaily

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 w ... Read review

Advantages: Nice resturant
Disadvantages: Far out, dated, horrid

What a terrible hotel. We went to Rome in April and booked this Hotel through Expedia as it was stated at 4*. Upon arrival to the Hotel, it was all old fashioned and quite dingey. Inside the carpets had stain's on and the Hotel lobby was very basic, ... Read review

Quick review of Via Appia Antica
Review of Via Appia Antica by artgirl2

We visited the Via Appia Antica in the summer of 2007, while touring the Roman Catacombs and the church of Domine Quo Vadis. The area has over 2,000 years of history, and we couldn't believe how few tourists there were to visit this hidden jewel in Rome. Our guide Valentina said that only about one in twenty tourists to Rome makes it out to the Appia Antica during their stay in Rome. Such a pity. We can't recommend it highly enough, especially if you are fortunate enough to have a guided tour. We used When in Rome Tours and were very pleased. They have a website at http://www.wheninrometours.com.

Sorry for the rating but I didn't think there was actually much info about the hotel - you've mentioned what's nearby it. I would also want to know the price you paid and how you booked it, e.g. directly or through a travel agency? :) by anonymili
Needs a bit more to either sell or not sell the Hotel as a possible stopping place. Cleanliness ? Comfortable Beds ? Etc Etc Regards Steve by poshtroika
