HOTEL ORLANDA, Rome

The hotel is situated between Termini Station and the Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore, putting major attractions within easy reach. The Colosseum is a 15-minute walk, while the Trevi Fountain, Roman Forum, Piazza Venezia, and Piazza di Spagna are all under 2 km away. Rome's Opera House is only 400 metres from the property. Fiumicino Airport is 23 km away and reachable via the Leonardo Express train (every 15 minutes, 30-minute journey) from Termini. Ciampino Airport is 13 km away, with a Terravision bus or an official white taxi for €31. The immediate area around Termini is very busy day and night, with many restaurants and shops, though some have found the neighbourhood chaotic in the evening. For exploring further afield, metro and bus connections are excellent from Termini.

The hotel offers Double (17 m²), Triple (23 m²), and Quadruple (30 m²) rooms. Quadruple rooms can be set up as a double bed plus two singles, or four single beds, accommodating up to 4 people. All rooms feature soundproofing, air conditioning (€5/night extra or free on promotion), heating, tile or marble floors, a desk, wardrobe, and an in-room safe. Private bathrooms include free toiletries, a bidet, hairdryer, and either a bath or shower. Some rooms offer landmark, city, or inner courtyard views. Upper floors are accessible by lift. The property is an older, converted building on one floor, which means some rooms may have a dated feel. Rooms facing the street can be noisy at night; an inner courtyard room is quieter. The lift is small but functional. A fold-up bed and children's high chair can be requested.

Breakfast is available for €8 per person and is a basic Italian-style buffet with bread, pastries, croissants, hot drinks, and sometimes cold cuts and cereal. Gluten-free options and special diet menus are available upon request. The breakfast room is small, and during peak times it can feel crowded. Coffee, water, and soda are available free of charge throughout the day from a vending machine and a refrigerator in the breakfast area. There is no on-site restaurant for lunch or dinner, but the hotel's immediate surroundings have numerous restaurants, trattorias, and cafés within a short walk. Packed lunches can be arranged, and room service is available.

The hotel provides free Wi-Fi in rooms and a computer internet point. Luggage storage is free both before check-in and after check-out, and lockers are available. A paid airport shuttle service can be arranged for both Fiumicino and Ciampino airports, as well as to Civitavecchia port. The shuttle also offers car hire. Daily housekeeping is included and fresh towels are provided. The multilingual staff (English, Spanish, French, Italian) provides detailed maps, local advice, and can help book tickets, tours, and taxis.
