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 hotel is centrally located, 10min walk to colosseum and roman forum ruins, 10min from bath ruins and national museum and around 25min to trevoli fountain and Spanish steps.

The hotels location is brilliant as it is easy to walk between Termini and some of the bigger sights such a the Colosseum, Roman Forum, Trevi fountain and so on.

This is a great little hotel only about six blocks from Roman forum and four blocks from subways and trains.

Location is everything, within walking distance to the Colosseum/Roman Forum, the train station, and major sites such as the Santa Maria Maggiore and the Diocletian Baths which is now a church.Staff is helpful and a full breakfast is provided.I will definitely come back!

Location was great:
- 10 minutes easy walk from Roma Termini Train station, great for quick ride to Vatican City and its tourist destinations
- Basilica Di santa Maria Maggiore was 2 minutes walk
- 15 minutes walk to Colosseum & Roman Forum
- 15 minutes walk to Trevi Fountain

Hotel experience:
- Great hotel staff, helped us to keep the bags with them till our rooms were getting ready and we went exploring the city.

It's in a great location 10 minute walk from the Colosseum/Roman Forum and 10 minute walk from the main Termini train station.

It is superbly located, within easy walking distance of the colosseum, Roman Forum, Il Vittoriano monument and Palatine Hill. In fact, with this hotel as our base, we walked everywhere across the city and saw everything we wanted to (and more!)

Convenient location - about 5 min walk to the Termini Station, about 5 minutes to Basilica Santa Maria Maggiore, and about 20- 25 minute walk to the Coliseum, Roman Forum, etc.

The hotel is ideally located, just a ten minute walk from Rome Termini and within walking distance of the Colosseum, Roman Forum, Trevi Fountain and the Spanish Steps (all around 15-20 minutes).

You can easily walk to Roma Terminii,  the Roman Forum and in the opposite direction the Colliseum.

The Raffaello Hotel is very conveniently located near the main train terminal (Termini) and within easy walking distance to the Colosseum and Roman Forum.

The hotel was walking distance to the Colosseum, Roman Forum, Termini Station and walking-short bus trips on Via Nazionale (2 blocks away) to Piazza Navona, Pantheon, Vittorio Emmanuel, Trevi Fountain and Spanish Steps and definitely a bus to Vatican.

It is a good location as coliseum/Roman Forum/Palatine Hill are all about 10/15 mins from here.

In terms of location – Hotel Raffaello is within comfortable walking distance (1 km) of a number of tourist attractions, including the Roman Forum, the Colosseum, and the Trevi Fountain.

We loved the location -- about 10 minute walk to Termini train station and about 15-20 minute walk to Colosseum and Roman Forum.

We walked to most sites in Roma; the hotel is within easy walking distance to the Colosseum & Roman Forum.

but again you can walk to the collesseum and roman forum within ten minutes and the subway to get everywhere else is about five minutes away!

The location is superb - just 10-15 mins walk from the Colosseum and Roman Forum which was the main focus of our stay.

It was on a great localization, close to Colisseum, Roman Forum and Termini Train Station.

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.

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.

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.

Perfectly sited for the Roman Forum and the Colosseum.

A very short walk to the major sites of Ancient Rome (Colosseum, Roman Forum).

Just a few minutes' walk from the famous Colosseum and the ancient Roman Forum, this hotel is a perfect destination for some of the best of what this incredible city has to offer.

The hotel is very close to many prime attractions including the Colosseum and Roman Forum.

It was walking distance to the Colosseum and Roman Forum.

The Colloseum and Roman forum is only a five minute walk away.

Loved this hotel and would highly recommend to anyone visiting Rome

Ps Book your tickets for the Colosseum and Roman forum and Vatican etc on line it’s much quicker and you skip the queues .

Colloseum and Roman Forum are literally 2 blocks away.

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

Great hotel if you want to be close to the Coliseum and Roman Forum and away for the busier and noisier part of Rome.

The hotel is within a 5 min walk of the colloseum and roman forum.

Just a five minute walk to the Coliseum and Roman Forum.

Well-appointed, nice contemporary style, rooftop terrace with view of the Coliseum, very conveniently located to the Roman Forum and Coliseum.

Just minutes from the colosseum and the Roman Forum.

We also regularly walked into the main city centre to visit other attractions like the Roman Forum, Trevi Fountain, Monument and Pantheon; that walk took about 15-20 minutes and there was plenty to see along the way so it was a nice walk.

This medium sized boutique hotel, 65 rooms I think I recall reading, is a mere 3 blocks from the Colosseo and Roman Forum, at the end of quiet via with a few pleasant, reasonably priced restaurants along its length.

Situated on a quiet back street of Rome, within a short walk from the Colisseum and Roman Forum, this gem of a hotel is perfect for a stay in the Eternal City.

but in short walking distance from the colosseum and Roman Forum.

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

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

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.

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

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.

Firstly, the staff are welcoming and friendly.

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

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.

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

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.

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.
