Hotel Details

Location

Located in the heart of Rome, just 600 metres from Termini Station, with the Colosseum a 16-minute walk away.
The property sits two blocks from Roma Termini railway station and Vittorio Emanuele Metro is a 5-minute walk, providing direct links across the city. Cavour Metro (less than 1 km) and Colosseo Metro (14 minutes on foot) are also accessible. Rome Ciampino Airport is 13 km away. The neighbourhood is central and lively, with Santa Maria Maggiore a few steps away, and numerous restaurants and cafes within a 5-minute radius. Some areas of the building face a street with tram and traffic noise, so lighter sleepers may prefer rooms away from the road. The immediate vicinity is considered safe during daytime, though some sections feel darker at night.

Dining

Breakfast is a basic self-serve package including a juice, a pastry or crackers, and a piece of fruit.
The included breakfast is a light grab-and-go tray with a small juice box, a packaged pastry or crackers, and fruit. The kitchen is available for self-catering, with stovetop, microwave, and fridge, but limited utensils and dishware. No restaurant or bar operates on-site. The surrounding area offers many dining options within 0.5 km, including Ren Chinese Restaurant, Trattoria Cecio, and Ristorante Tasting, so guests preferring a full hot breakfast or dinner can easily eat nearby.

Facilities and Services

Wi-Fi is available at a cost of €5 per 24 hours. Luggage storage is free during reception hours (10:30-afternoon).
Paid Wi-Fi is available in rooms at €5 per 24 hours.
