Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Small scale — With only six rooms, the property feels intimate, but it may lack the facilities of a larger hotel — there is no on-site restaurant or gym.
  • Check-out window — Check-out is only between 07:00 and 10:00, which might be early for some travellers who prefer a more relaxed morning.
  • No pets allowed — If you travel with a pet, this property will not accommodate them.
  • Limited dining options on site — Besides in-room breakfast, there is no full restaurant or bar on the property, so you'll need to head out for other meals.

“The room had a safe, a flat-screen TV with satellite channels, and a mini fridge bar — I really enjoyed that. I loved having a bidet in my private bathroom. The location is fantastic and breathtaking, right by the main train station with a street view.”

8.5Verified guest

“Amazingly nice staff and a magnificent location near Roma Termini — everything was very good. The room was impeccably clean and huge, with comfortable beds and nice towels. The hotel is just next door to Night Life, Termini station, Metro lines, and a Ministry of Defense building with an armed guard outside.”
