The location near the Colosseum is great for sightseeing,

Great location, very central in Rome and close to the Colosseum, yet our room was quiet because the windows had a good seal and the aircon was efficient and quiet running.

Close to Colosseum and many street restaurants.

Fantastic hotel, situated close to the Colosseum.

Beautiful building which is in walking distance to the Colosseum.

The location is excellent if you want to stay near the Colosseum.

It is within walking distance of the Colosseum and many other attractions if you like walking.

I picked this hotel due to it's TA reviews and its close proximity to the Colosseum.

Prime, quiet location, walking distance to the Colosseum.

We went to Rome for the first time in February 2023 and booked this Hotel essentially because it was close to the Colosseum and there was a view from the rooftop.

Highlights of our stay:

Location: The hotel is conveniently located near the Colosseum and the Historic Center.

The location is nice with lots of little stores and cafes around and within easy walking distance of the colosseum and other points of interest, the a/c works amazingly well, and the housekeeping staff are great.

This beautiful hotel is perfectly located within walking distance to the Colosseum and has a roof top restaurant that has a view of the Colosseum where we enjoyed a delicious breakfast every morning.

It’s quite close to the Colosseum yeah it is also located on a quiet street.

Located literally a stones throw from the Colosseum and within walking distance of the Trevi Fountain.

The hotel is a great venue, near the Colosseum, comfortable, quiet, clean and a fun breakfast buffet.

The hotel is in good location right next to the colosseum and near the gay street of Rome, and by gay street it means two gay bars.

Close to the Colosseum and the Forum and local restaurants.

Hotel is in a great location near The Colosseum and Roman Forum.

The only improvement would be to have some sockets next to the bed so you can charge things next to your bed

Beware of high charges from taxis back from main areas.

We accidentally broke one of the bike keys and was charged for a replacement which I feel wasn’t warranted.

but most have a card scanner so you can enter with your own card.

Even little Italian candies awaited us in the rooms at check in with a sweet card that had Halloween motifs!

Taxi rank at end of street, opposite Colosseum - confirm with driver prior to hire journey is metered, otherwise you may be vastly overcharged - witnessed this regularly!

When we got back from dinner someone at the front desk tried to tell me that we would be billed for this broken glass container.

I did think there was a lack of charging points in the room and a lack of lighting, particularly in the evening.

We contacted the hotel with more than 24 hours notice, and they still charged us a 1 night cancellation penalty, claiming the hotel required 3 DAYS NOTICE.

Travel tip: in case your phone runs out of battery, take a Hotel Business card with you so you can show return driver the address) sometimes our pronunciation of the area is lost in translation.

This seems to be only a ROME thing as other parts of Italy we could add to credit card.

I am sure that if you go to this heartless hotel they will see you just like a bill, coin, check, credit card or travel check and non like a guest who are given them the money to eat.

buttons sometimes work and sometimes don't, so I couldn't turn lights on or off as I wanted, so I'd just pull the card out and wait for them to go off on the timer.

You can only pay by credit card and the ticket covers entry to both attractions and is valid for 2 days.

When we arrived from Australia our bags did not and the hotel reception took charge of chasing the airline to get our bags for us and thankfully they arrived 24 hours later.

Hotel does not have an iron in room or available and charges for pressing clothes.

Drinks can be served up here and charged to your room for check out.

The only downside for me, and this is probably expected from a hotel of this standard, is that the hotel charges for pressing rather than allowing the use of an iron in the room.

The staff was professional, friendly, and accommodating and took care to make certain our stay was amazing.

friendly, and helpful, the rooms are beautifully decorated (as are the public spaces), the amenities are great, the breakfast upstairs on the terrace - with views in two directions - is super, as is dinner.

From the moment we arrived at the hotel late in the evening, Katia, and Karina were so friendly, helpful and informative throughout our stay.

Hotel was clean, friendly, and comfortable.

Reception always friendly and welcoming and happy to help with all our needs.

The restaurant staff was very friendly and professional and the food was delicious.

Excellent hotel with great breakfast choices, comfortable rooms and friendly staff.

Firstly, the staff are welcoming and friendly.

Friendly staff clean and quiet room, excellent local restaurant recommendations.

Everyone at the hotel, from the front desk staff to the bartender, to the waitstaff and the housekeepers were friendly and professional and helped make our stay very pleasurable.

but friendly, giving lots of information about the different areas of the city, dining recommendations and warning us to beware of pickpockets.

Large clean rooms, great breakfast, and friendly staff.

If you are looking for a hotel that is reasonably priced with a great location, friendly and welcoming staff, I don't think you can do better than Capo d'Africa Hotel!

Very very clean, friendly and helpful staff from front desk to bar to cleaners.

All the staff we met were very friendly and helpful, from check in to check out.

The employees were so helpful to me as it seemed I needed some sort of help each day, even if it was just to find a laundry service or to offer a friendly ear.

This proved to be an excellent choice as the hotel is less than a 10 minute walk from the Colosseum, Palatine Hill, and the Forum.

A two minute walk to the end of the Via Capo D'Africa and you're confronted with the Colosseum, and along with it the Forum, Palatine Hill and a few minutes further on the Circus Maximus, so perfect for anyone who is planning around the ancient sites.

This modern hotel is a 5 minute walk to the Coliseum, the Roman Forum, Palatine Hill.

3 blocks from the Colosseum, Palatine Hill, The Fora and Domus Aurea.

The location near the Colosseum, Palatine Hill, the Forum and San Clemente is fantastic.

The Capo d'Africa is superbly situated for Ancient Roman areas of interest, the Colosseum,  Palatine Hill and Forum.

Finally,if you plan on visiting the Collosseum,the queues can be huge,especially with all the security checks now in place so what we did was buy our entrance tickets from a little booth across the road on the Palatine Hill side of the Collosseum.

The hotel is located on a quiet street near the Coliseum and Palatine Hill.

The Colosseum, Palatine Hill and Forum were all less than a 10 minute walk away.

Location: The Colosseum, Roman Forum, the Pantheon, and Palatine Hill just to mention a few were within walking distance.

The location was excellent - just a couple if blocks from the Colosseum, Palatine Hill, and several other historical sites, as well as several good restaurants.

Fantastic accommodation, great location -you can walk to the Colosseum, Roman Forum , Palatine Hill the Spanish steps , Trivi fountain etc. .

The hotel is a few blocks away from the Coliseum, Forum and Palatine Hill.

This gem of a hotel sits at the end of a quiet street within the penumbra of the Coliseum and only a brief walk from the Roman Forum, Palatine Hill, and other ancient sites, including one my favorites, the often overlooked excavations at the Basilica di San Clemente, which consists of a church built on top of a church built on top of a first century pagan temple.

Walking distance from many sights of 'old' Rome (Colosseum, Palatine Hill, River Tibor, Circus Maximus) and Train takes you everywhere else ie Vatican City - 20 mins, Spagna, - 10 mins.

Nice location just three blocks or so from the Colliseum, Palatine Hill and then the Forum.

The location was perfect for us, being 5 mins walk from Palatine Hill, Colesseum, Roman Forum etc and only 25 mins from Piazza Novona/Pantheon area.

A glance at a map of Rome will show that the Roman Forum and the Palatine Hill are adjacent to the Colosseum with the Capitoline Hill at the other end of the Forum, so the hotel is extremely well situated for these attractions.

The location to the Coliseum, Forum and Palatine Hill area is perfect.

Dinner upstairs our last night produced the best fish ever, can't remember the name, plus the wait staff was fun and attentive.

Abdul at the bar was so helpful and served my family with drinks/snacks and was very hospitable.

The staff was very kind, especially Katia who gave us a lot of useful information and always found solutions to our requirements.

Front desk was very helpful and we loved the location's convenience to a few lovely neighborhood restaurants and Rome attractions like the Coloseum, the Convent next door we could attend Vespers (sung BEAUTIFULLY) and/or mass, and Basilica of St Clemente.

Really enjoyed our stay, the staff were really helpful and made an effort to make sure we were looked after.

A wonderful Hotel, clean rooms, good food, especially breakfast buffet, helpful staff took time to make sure we knew how and where the bus operated, and within walking distance to the Coloseum, as well as lots of great sidewalk cafes.

The staff and what makes this beautiful property stand out from many others.

but our room was ready and the staff were very helpful in arranging transfers and recommending and booking a restaurant for us.

Staff give warm welcome and are great at getting taxis.

If you needed to check in late or just prefer to have people at the front desk, this is a good place to consider.

There’s a lovely rooftop breakfast dining area and a reception bar area for coffee or drinks.

Nice restaurant and terrace bar and hang out spot.

The rooftop terrace is amazing with fabulous views of Rome.

Located three blocks from the Colosseum and with a roof top terrace with a beautiful view this hotel would take a lot of beating.

There is also a lovely roof terrace to enjoy a relaxing drink.

but I did over hear guests being very happy with their meals on the rooftop terrace.

There is a rooftop terrace with bar and restaurant,  an outdoor patio area , a lobby seating area and bar.

Breakfast was great with the option of the roof top terrace.

The hotel has a rooftop dining terrace from which you can see the colosseo and they made sure we had great views.

Gorgeous breakfast with plenty of choice (must try a hot chocolate) beautiful roof top terrace to enjoy some drinks after a long day.

Loved terrace for breakfast and evening aperitif .

Roof top terrace was georgous in the evening to have a drink before bed.

We had a nice prosecco on the rooftop terrace, and a tasty Negroni on the terrace downstairs.

My wife and I traveled to Italy for our honeymoon, we stayed for a week and despite the airport loosing our lugagge this hotel made feel right at home, superb service from the front desk Angelica and Massimiliano to the staff at the terrace for the breakfast.

They had a delightful terrace that we were also able to enjoy in the evenings while enjoying a glass of wine.

The location is quiet for sleeping and the roof terrace is excellent  for a relaxing breakfast in the sun.

It’s only a short walk from major tourist attractions (eg colosseum), the main train station and top notch restaurants.

It was a great location with nearby shopping and restaurants and within walking distance of the train station and the colosseum.

The hotel's location can't be beat--just minutes from the Trevi Fountain, Pantheon, and a stone's throw from the Spanish Steps and Colosseum.

From the hotel, you can easily walk to the Colosseum, Trevi Fountain, Spanish Steps and Rome Termini train station.

(That is for rooms 724/725 only I believe)
You can easily walk to Trevi, Spanish steps, the Colosseum, Piazza Venezia, and more.

Fantastic location in the Via Nazionale, one of Rome's premier shopping streets and within walking distance of the Colosseum, Trevi Fountain, Spanish Steps, along with Repubblica metro station a couple of minutes walk away.

Location was perfect for what we wanted to see and do with 15 minute walks to the Colosseum, the Roman Forum, and Trevi Fountain.

Great location - we walked to every attraction (Colosseum, Roman Forum, Palatine hill, Pantheon, Trevi fountain, Spanish steps, Jewish Ghetto, Trastevere) apart from Vatican City.

The location was about a 12 minute walk from the train station, 20 minutes to Colosseum/Palatine Hill/Forum, 15 minutes to Trevi Fountain, 20 minutes to Spanish Steps, 20 minutes to Pantheon and a bit further to Piazza Navona.

My partner and I particularly loved the roof top bar - Ambrosia!

You have to have the signature cocktails at the rooftop bar.

especially the most fantastic signature cocktails by the in-house bartender Maurizio..  pop in to the roof top bar for your apperitivo!

Bartender at the Rooftop bar is a Show all on his own!

The facilities are great, the roof top bar is one of the best in Rome and the cocktails are the best ever.

Visit the rooftop bar for Mauricio’s cocktails, they’re a ‘must’ experience when visiting Rome.

The thing that makes this restaurant truly stand out is its rooftop bar which is always a wonderful way to end your day with some gelato and cocktails.

Breakfast is luxurious, and don’t miss the rooftop bar.

We had evening sunset drinks at the rooftop bar 2 nights

The roof top bar/restaurant is lovely and the food delicious.

Don’t miss the hotel rooftop bar or the breakfast buffet which is one of the best we have ever had.

From the warm welcome to the delicious breakfast to the awesome rooftop bar, we had a great stay at Artemide.

The bonus of a very nice rooftop bar is very pleasant in the evenings.

Don't miss the rooftop bar and the fun bartender.

Breakfasts are superb,  Roof top bar was a wonderful oasis, delicious cocktails, amazing view, again fabulous food (need to book ahead).

Loved the rooftop bar, restaurant, spa, and excellent complimentary breakfast (cappuccino, pastries, eggs, sausages, fresh fruit).

Rooms were great, Rooftop bar/restaurant is great place to have cocktails. Amazing breakfast served in the morning (best cappuccino and croissants we had!)

The rooftop bar area was a lovely spot to relax and refresh after sightseeing.

At the Ambrosia rooftop restaurant we spent a wonderful evening.

We did the romance package which included a couples massage and dinner at the rooftop restaurant, all included.

The breakfast is excellent with a huge variety and the roof top restaurant has a very nice atmosphere as well as food and drinks.

we went back to roof top resturant for dinner , again another wonderful meal .

We had pre booked a table at the Ambrosia Roof top restaurant for Sunday night our arrival day and actual wedding anniversary.

but the Artemis rooftop restaurant is  true gourmet cuisine, and while we ate many meals outside the hotel , all of our best dining experiences were in the roof top restaurant.

Hotel gave a voucher for a Prosecco at their Rooftop restaurant /bar which was also very nice touch.

The breakfast was amazing, our spa treatment was wonderful, and we had a delicious rooftop dinner here.

Had a fantastic dinner in the rooftop restaurant behind a lovely sunset!

Great service, perfect location, very clean, the breakfast is fabulous, nice room and amenities, loved the convenience of the minibar being included, the spa was quite enjoyable, and your rooftop restaurant served a terrific meal.

We ate twice in the restaurant's rooftop restaurant, which was much better than average for a hotel eatery.

The hotel sent me a confirmation reminder e-mail to which I replied and asked them to make a dinner reservation for us at the rooftop restaurant, Ambrosia.

The other treat is Ambrosia Rooftop Restaurant.

We had the opportunity to have dinner and drinks on the rooftop restaurant, Ambrosia, great food and customized cocktails.

I’m not going to repeat what everyone else has mentioned, as we would be only repeating the positive messages (friendly staff, great food on the roof top, breakfast is good, very clean hotel, minibar restocked daily,  and located in a better part of Rome).

Their roof top restaurant Ambrosia was top notch.

The rooftop restaurant was a great feature too -food was very good and a perfect place for an aperitivo.

The staff are outstanding from the front desk to the rooftop restaurant.

The basic rooms are very small and don't offer much of a view beyond the building across the street.

My only criticism, and it's a tiny thing, is the washroom size in the rooms are small,

Initially they booked out to a double room which was quite small with no view

The only difference between the two rooms is that room 404 has a small narrow balcony.

While the rooms are somewhat small, the hotel decor and amenities were top quality.

The room was on the small side (we had a deluxe comfort, I think) which more than adequate.

Also worth a mention were Sebastian and Davide so helpful and accomodating .The rooms were great one small negative was that they were a tad small .

The amenities - a great breakfast buffet, a convenient laundromat, a rooftop restaurant and location  near Roma Termini and Republicca Metro.

Walk to the colosseum, Trevi, Spanish Steps, or the bus is an easy 2 min walk away.

The hotel is modern and has great location, 15-20 min walk from all main attractions and also has Metro station 2 min away.

Can walk to key destinations or jump on the metro.

They helped us with the laundry, buying Metro cards and finding our places to visit.

Close to the railways and several metro stations.
