We would like to thank Flavia who served us at breakfast.

Delightful stay - the breakfast was lovely, the staff were warm and welcoming, service was outstanding, hotel is clean and the rooms are neat.

Breakfast area was clean and comfortable and the staff there were very pleasant.

The breakfast was really good with lots of selection and really good fresh squeezed orange juice and cappuccino.

Also, really lovely breakfast and service which helped us to fuel up and start our day, the location was just perfect.

but the hotel was clean, comfortable, breakfast (optional) filled a hole and service was great.

While the hotel's elevator was broken, they helped us bring our bags to our rooms and compensated us with free breakfast, which was very delicious.

The wait staff at the breakfast area was amazing.

The staff were lovely and the breakfast fantastic.

Staff at reception and in the breakfast room and the cleaning staff are lovely and do a wonderful job.

We didn’t have breakfast any morning as we were up and gone sightseeing early.

Extensive breakfast enabled us to skip lunch most days as we were touring.

The breakfast serving staff was very attentive.

The hotel is in Monti (I think) and was walking distance to the colosseum, Trevi, Spanish Steps, Pantheon and Termini station.

Walked to major sites - Colosseum, Trevi, Spanish Steps.

Also an easy 10 min walk to the Colosseum.

Walking distance to the colosseum as well as most of Rome's major tourist attractions.

very nice hotel ,great breakfast,good location for sightseeing,very near is supermarket ,bars,restaurants and less than ten minutes walking to colosseum,and also metro is five minute walking distance, quiet for sleeping, very helpfull people at hotel. ..

It will take you about 10 minutes to walk to the Colosseum and very good restaurants close by, safe area though.

We walked to the Colosseum and Trevi Fountain which were about 10-15 minutes walking as well.

Walking distance to the Colosseum & Plaza  Maria de Maggiorrie, well worth visiting.

Great location and can easily walk to Colosseum and enjoy a nice stroll through old town.

Though it is very central (within walking distance to the Colosseum), it was very quiet.

The hotel is centrally located (a few blocks from the Colosseum) and is really lovely.

but it is in a fantastic location, 10 minutes walk from termini station and approx 15 minutes walk to the colosseum.

Easy walking distance to all main location, Colosseum, trevi fountain & spanish steps.

We chose the Raffaello because it is close to Termini station and also the archeological sites. In truth, we walked to all the locations we visited (Colosseum, Forum, Palatine Hill, Trevi fountain, Spanish Steps, Vatican, Parthenon, etc.)

The hotel is located blocks from the Termini train station and blocks from the Colosseum.

For starters, this hotel is within walking distance of so many attractions including the Colosseum, Santa Maria Majore Church and San Piedro Nicolo.

I was able to visit the Colosseum and the Vatican city and commute using just the buses 81 and 64.

The hotel is a 5-10 minute walk from the Cavour, Republica, and Termini metro stations, and less than a 15 minute walk from the Colosseum and surrounding ruins.

My ten year old son and I had a great stay at Hotel Raffaelo is ideally located within easy walking distance from the Colosseum, the Forum, Trevi Fountain and Rome's central station.

The lift wasn’t working for the week so had to carry our luggage up to our room.

Lift doesn't work, no hot water night or in the morning.

Notes: the elevator is out of commission and, according to the front desk, will be for some time.

There were no elevators and if you have mobility issues this can be a real problem and the shower was like getting into a cubicle with no room to move.

Only downside is the lift doesn’t work so it’s a very tough climb up to 4th floor on steep stairs even for fit people😅

Only downsides were the lift not working (

The only issue we had was that the elevator was not working, so walking up and down the stairs was a bit of a workout for a couple in our 70's.

The elevator was broken and the staff was very apologetic

Lift was broken, staff were unhelpful/rude.

The next day we woke up and the lift was broken, so therefore I had 3 flights of stairs to get to reception.

The lift is way too small (3 pax can barely stand in it) and stops at intermediate levels, so you always have to climb up/down the stairs for reaching the rooms, which is quite inconvenient if you have a lot of luggage.

Negative includes: very small room, tiny elevator (1 person with luggage at most), elevator stops between floors (so, at least 9 steps to walk) and VERY small shower.

This is a boutique hotel, so there is only one small elevator and stairs are more convenient.

every time I arrive back to the hotel I have to wait 5 to 10 minutes just get on the elevator.

Only complaint would be the very small elevator that stops in between floors so one still has to either go up or down a flight of stairs to get to your room.

The rooms are clean and the bed very comfortable.

The room with comfortable beds, great a/c, cheerful staff that were always helpful.

The room was very nice with a comfortable bed.

Three of us had single rooms, and while they were small, they were very comfortable.

We were a family of 4 and stayed in a quad room which is rare in Rome (or Italy, for that matter).

Very comfortable room and we had a newly renovated bathroom which was very modern.

but staff helped getting our luggage up to our room and back down at check in.

Our room, one of the terrace suites, had a brand new bathroom that is beautifully redone.

Our room was on the 5th floor and had a small balcony which allowed us to enjoy the fresh air.

The room was big enough for 4 which is not easy, so we appreciated that.

Our bags were in our room upon our re-arrival.

My daily espresso was delicious and my hotel room was clean and very comfortable.

I absolutely loved the room and had a great night sleep!

The only downside was the size of the corner shower which was really small and barely manageable.

The bathroom is also small and everything works.

but the bathroom…..we had to step up 2 steps to a small door into the very small bathroom.

However, another family member was in a different room and their bathroom was quite small

The shower takes a little getting used to because it is small

The shower was rather small and not the easiest to move around in.

We stayed here for 8 nights so a few things were frustrating:  a tiny shower that might not accommodate a person with above average weight or height, the lack of hair conditioner and Kleenex, and a satellite TV system that does not work consistently.

The room was adequate for our needs (although the shower was a little small!).

though the small showers took some getting used to.

The only minus would have to be the very small shower!

The rooms are a bit small by North American standards

Not everything is perfect, though, the safe in the room is very small.

The elevator/“lift” to the rooms is quite small as are the rooms themselves.

The elevator is VERY small & there is only room for one person with luggage at a time.

Hotel was very outdated, the rooms were small, the bathroom shower was a nightmare, very small and dangerous  (almost fell out) with little to no water pressure.

The cleaniness
Once again, yes the room was small,

so we asked to move rooms
As its just 2 small and room was dirty.they met is with contempt.

Not bad at all,clean and very safe.also the staff was friendly and helpful.Furthermore it was a last minute checkin and they treated me like a king.Only thing was parking.Parking is a problem

The hotel staff are friendly and helpful.

He ensured our backpacks would be looked after as he placed them next to the front desk in the lobby alongside other guest’s luggage; and told us to return after 2pm.

Fantastic hotel with amazing staff that continues to improve whilst maintaining high standards.

Clean rooms, friendly staff and convenient location.

The staff couldn’t do enough for us and they went above and beyond and made a fuss of our son even gifting him with a free teddy bear, thank you everyone.

Our first stay in Italy and we appreciated the helpful staff.

The staff speaks great English, and it is quiet and very comfortable.

The front desk staff were friendly and helpful.

The front desk staff took very good care of us.

Very accommodating and always there to answer our questions.

Everyone at the hotel was friendly and accommodating from front desk to wait staff (we enjoyed breakfast onsite).

A special mention for Barcar on reception.

This is a wonderful hotel a short walk from Termini station.

This hotel is located near Termini Station and lots of restaurants.

most comfortable stay in ROME near Termini station - also walk able from all major sites.

I had no problem walking with my roller bag from the station to the hotel.

It is located close to termini station which is the airport train as well as the intersection of the two metro lines.

The hotel is in a pretty good location, the metro station Cavour is just down the road and there are lots of restaurants and shops nearby.

Hotel Raffaello is located in a historical building on a quiet street street with easy access to many of Rome’s main attractions, as well as the rail station.

The hotel is well positioned - 10 minutes from Termini Station and key city centre attractions with a handy mini supermarket very close by.

Termini station is a 10 minute walk the other direction.

You can walk easily to many places, and the Cavour Metro station is just three short blocks away.

We chose Rafaello because of its proximity to the Termini Station.

The term station is only a 10-minute walk away.

If you aren't into walking, it is really close to TWO metro stations on two different lines AND within walking distance to the Roma Termini train station!

The location is good for walking to the majority of places, near to 2 Metro stations on different lines as well.

The location is super close to termini station which was fab for us to get to the airport by train or bus.

While it is walkable from Termini station, it is a bit of a distance when you have luggage and such in tow.

It’s a 10-15 walk from termini train station.

but also made use of the hop on hop off buses starting from the main Termini train station which was about 10-15 minutes walk away.

10-15 minutes from main to train station (important pulling carryon luggage) and Metro.

The location was very convenient for train station and the major sights, many good small restaurants in the area, not too crowded or touristy.

I chose this hotel for the location (near the Rome Termini; main train station), price for the advertised offerings, and because of the standards required to have the Best Western brand association.

I love how close this hotel was to Termini train station.

So easy to get to from the central train station (Termini).

Great location, 10 minutes from the main train station.

Hotel Raffaello is the perfect place to stay when visiting Rome, close to the train station, walking distance or cheap cab rides to most attractions.

Hotel Raffaello is a lovely hotel in a good location
10 minute walk from the train station which is where the airport shuttle buses drop you off and the hotel isn’t difficult to find
Check in was easy and the staff very pleasant and polite.

Only a 15 minute walk (approximately) from Termini train station.

We chose the Hotel Raffaello based on its favorable reviews and proximetry to the Termini Train station and after staying there for 3 nights are very glad we did.

About ten min from the train station and with friendly staff, this hotel is good for a couple days stay.

A great hotel, near to the railway station.

Good location to the train station and lots of nice restaurants in the area.

Located equidistant to the Colosseum and Rome Termini train station, the hotel is perfectly situated to explore this fabulous city.

It is located within an easy distance to most sights and railway station.Also has a supermarket close by .The snacks/coffee station is a a welcoming touch and we used it after a long flight as there was some time before our check in.There is no kettle in the room ,

It’s essentially within a 30 minute, or less, walk to every major site (except the Vatican).

Really great location and easy to walk around.

Traditional decor, comfortable large bed, working air con. Adequate bathroom (although for some reason there wasn’t ever any hot water between 2 & 4pm which is when we came back to shower having spent the whole morning in the hot sun walking for miles!)

The location is perfect for walking to many of the city's sights.

The hotel staff is friendly, helpful and kind and the location was perfect for walking to all of the Beautiful Roman Structures!

He never failed to greet all guests that walk past the reception area.

amazing value…..perfectly situated for walking the sights, and walking distance to Termini rail station…..which takes you directly to Leonardi davVinci airports

Our last night, we had an incredible meal at Ristorante Tema - a mere 2 minute walk from the hotel.

Just come back from the Rome times hotel , well situated hotel for all the tourist attractions , very clean and pleasant staff and nice breakfast .

Could not have asked for a better location with the main attractions within a 15 min walk (only used the train once to get to the Vatican!).

The hotel is situated in a short walking distance to the Colosseum & Trevi fountain with wonderful shops, bars & restaurants on the way.

Nice hotel situated in a great location, about 10 minutes from the Colosseum, Trevi fountain and Pantheon.

Nice and close to colosseum and restaurants.

It was so great, receptionist and staff were very kind, rooms are very clean and decorated modern 
Breakfast was nice and delicious , the hotel includes bar which is so nice, and location was great it is 10 minutes dar away from fountain of trevi and 13 minutes far away from the colosseum

Your 10/15 mins from the colosseum which is one way and 10 mins from Trevi fountain.

The location is excellent - 15 minutes walk from the main station and within walking distance of most of the sites of Rome (Trevi Fountain 15 mins, Colosseum 25 mins, Pantheon 20 mins) and there are lots of bars and restaurants in the locality.

Great location for the Trevi fountain and Colosseum, around 10-15 mins walk away.

10-15 minute walk to the colosseum, trevi fountain and Spanish steps.

It’s clean, comfortable and has great access to the area, 10 mins to the Spanish Steps/Trevi Fountain and 10 mins the other direction to the Colosseum.

Very handy for the Colosseum which is very close by and the Trevi fountain.

The hotel itself is in a perfect location, 10 minutes each way to both the Trevi fountain and Colosseum and just 30 minutes in a taxi from Ciampino airport.

15 minutes walk from the colosseum, 15 minutes from the Trevi fountain,

10 minute walk to Trevi Fountain, and 13 minute walk to the Colosseum.

Clean hotel room, with a good location, close to the colosseum and Spanish steps and Trevi fountain.

We got taken out of reception up the street through a dark old door and up a lift to our room… no nice reception to walk through in the nights or morning just a random lift and door out onto the street!

however if we required anything from the main hotel you need to take the key card to get back into the building and in doing so the rest of you sit in the dark as this operates the lighting in the room.

The rooms there is no natural light which was a little downside, a little dark as the window just faces a wall.

The second room we moved into had a good few lights broken which was annoying as the rooms are quite dark.

but it was a lot smaller than I expected and very dark as we were on the first floor and just outside the window was a metal staircase which blocked most of the light coming into the room.

but this did not work and there was no other light the other side either so it was very dark especially when trying to make tea.

It was slightly dark near the door to the room and we couldn't make the light stay on for longer than a minute so it put the full length mirror on the wall out of action as you could barely see your reflection.

It was very dark in the room and as the clothes in the wardrobes covered the wardrobe lights I found myself having to walk clothes to the window to see them.

however the lighting in the our room (202) was simply too dark.

The negatives:  The rooms are dark and the lighting is inadequate and everything is designed for form, not function (illuminated table??).

The hallways are very dark, and a bit tricky.

While the rooms are dark without too much natural light and no view, we found the room lighting to be good.

It was very dark with a tiny window overlooking a dark service area.

there just isnt enought of it. The room is dark itself (yes i know its a "mood" hotel!)

Felt like it was dark within the room and wasn't able to see how the weather was due to that.

The room was very dark, so much so that it was difficult to read the air con control that was by the door.

however has very poor lighting so it was difficult to see whilst rummaging through luggage etc.

We stayed in room 201 so not sure if the other rooms have a view or atleast some light.

but then when you get there you realize half their business model and vibe is keeping all of the lights half-dimmed so you don't notice the scuff marks and peeling wallpaper.

Only thing I would say they could go to improve is to add some fairy lights and a few more seats to their roof terrace.

Our rooms were very small and poorly lit, with no natural light coming in through the windows that were just a view of a brick wall!
