Hotéis em Aurelio, Roma

Contras: Staff at Check in was not service oriented

Prós: Location is excellent with 3-4 different bus stops within 2-3 minutes of walk. Just take google maps and follow the recommendations. Of course you must have Roma Pass card. The breakfast is excellent, so is the view and air at the rooftop. The neighborhood is quiet. The staff is excellent and the rooms are luxurious.

Contras: The elevator. This is unfortunately a given feature. Very small, narrow, fits 2 only, or 1 with a travel luggage. There is no door at the entrance level. You walk up 1/2 or down 1/2 to get to the door. The elevator is frequently unaccessible because one of the guests forgot to close the inner doors ( not automatic). So it’s a pain in the neck, better just walk the stairs. Despite of this, I give 5* because everything else compensates this. However people who can’t walk stairs should look elsewhere.

Prós: A receptionist man and manager woman who treated us when we arrived and two women work for serving breakfast. Their attitude and hospitality was Excellent. We appreciate them from the bottom of my heart. Facilities are beautiful and tidy.

Contras: Other staffs are not admirable. Staffs in reception, they do not know anything and not helpful even they are aggressive. This is not only my feeling but also from other costomers. I saw many people checked out and they feel somehow uncomfortable by receptionist attitude. One more receptionist(night staff?) even did not know what is collect call. I believe that as working in hospitality field, if you do not know something you should search or ask and have to find solutions for customers. I felt they just razy and not professional. In restrant, a guy who was serving breakfast was not helpful. We ask some question to him but he even didn't answer by word. We felt prejudice against Asian a little.

Prós: Good clean hotel with really helpful staff at a good location for public transport into the city, really close. The price versus quality was really excellent!

Prós: Great room, super cosy and warm for winter. We had a little private terrace from our room which was nice. Staff were fantastic from the moment we checked in. Super helpful and always greeting us good morning or good evening whenever we would walk past. Great variety of food for breakfast. Good value for money and would definitely stay here again - but possibly spending a little bit more next time for a quieter room.

Contras: Our room was located on the lowest floor and the terrace, while nice, was right next to the main entrance and people could see us if we had the door open past the light shrub. The walls were very thin and we had cleaners room right next to the room door also, so every time they would walk in we would hear them. It’s okay since my partner and I would wake at about 6am and be out of the room by 8am after breakfast. However if you’re looking for a sleep in, would probably recommend possibly paying a little more so you’re above the lower floor.

Prós: Beautiful boutique hotel very close to the Vatican in a nice neighborhood with an excellent continental breakfast, lovely room, nice bathroom, and a very friendly and helpful staff.

Contras: They did not have electrical adapter connections for US appliances such as my cell phone charging station.

Prós: Lovely stag helpful staff

Contras: There could be a grab handle over the bath and a coat hook in the bathroom. Both minor and not complaints

Prós: the hotel was comfortable and clean. The staff were very helpful.

Contras: The location is far from Rome. The metro station near the hotel was closed. We had to take a bus to the metro station and many of them were closed as well. Even though that wasn't a fault of the hotel, it made our trip more difficult.

Prós: Breakfast was amazing and the only place we were able to get true American coffee! LOL!

Contras: It was a little far from the city, but still within reason.

Prós: We were very happy to be guests in this hotel at Rome. Very professional and friendly staff. Modern looking rooms, and it is very clean. The breakfast is good, but I would expect more from a 4 Star Hotel Breakfast. Good connection to the metro.

Contras: - The smell from the bins near the hotel (but you need to understand, it is not their fault) - It was very cold in the bathroom (October) - A bit noisy

Prós: The staff was very friendly and always attentive. The price was great and it was in a convenient place to stay close to the subway. Because we were there to see a few sights before heading out to a class in Siena it was great. Rome can be very intimidating but we felt safe in the area around our hotel.

Contras: In terms of the hotel nothing really, It is small but I don't expect it to be America. When in Rome...

Prós: Leaving.

Contras: Terrible location far from the city center or even the Vatican as advertised. The neighborhood is completely littered with trash, just as the hotel had food laying around on the floors for our entire stay. You would be better off sleeping on the floor instead of the aweful mattress and you will be up to your ankles w/ water in the shower. Breakfast was almost ok...except for if you are not Italian you have to drink the "dirty water" vending machine caffe/coffee that tastes like you got it in an American hospital (Italian speakers were offered better caffes from the back by the staff upon arrival). The walls are paper thin and if you weren't completely distracted by the strange noises from within the room there were plenty of noises to here from outside of the room. Be advised also that the city tax is listed incorrectly and is now 6 euros per person per day.

Prós: The price lack of Internet in the room and very slow in the lobby

Prós: The staff extremely helpful and friendly!

Contras: Breakfast was not the "American breakfast" that they promised on the brochure.

Prós: Room not big but satisfactionary size and clean. Front desk people were very nice and helpfull and they spoke english. Breakfast very good and full. Hotel located 5 min walk from metro station cornellia. I can recommend this hotel for people who do not need to stay in city centre. with walk and emtro ride it took us 20 min max to get into the city. I was very satisfied with this hotel. Robert

Prós: The staff were very polite, and helpful. They also speak English and Spanish so communication wasn't a problem. The breakfast buffet was great. It has a nice variety of food items, all delicious! The location is great since it is a few meters from the Merto Station. The cleanliness is fair. Over all, it was a great value for the price. I visited with two kids and the room was large enough to accomodate us. The whole family had a good experience at the this hotel.

Contras: It is a little dificult to find because it is not on a main street. You should add a land mark to the address on lineFor example, it is located behind the yellow gas station by the bus depot. This info would be very helpful.

Prós: Everything was perfect.

Contras: Nope.

Prós: The breakfast was superb, catering for everybody from all walks and every nationality. The staff were mostly friendly.

Contras: When you arrive at the underground stop for the hotel try to have a map or sat nav to take you the extra 8 minutes walk to the hotel as the locals will either not tell you where it is or they do not know where it is. Have at least a street address.

Prós: That the hotel was close to the train station

Contras: The price I paid for this 3 star was unbelivable. Instead of one king bed as I requested I got two twins beds put together. I had a 19" TV, no tub, just a shower, the bathroom was so small two people could not be in there at one time. I was not able to get extra blankets, there was no clock in the room. I was not pleased with this hotel.

Prós: bathroom, breakfast, hotel staff, air conditioning all were wonderfull

Contras: room was ridiculously small

Prós: I realy appriciate hotel staff, nice area inside and outside, oportunities which I had.....bar, terasse, internet, close to underground station.

Contras: It was quite difficult to find this hotel from close underground station, because I see any signs or advertisement about hotel and not everybody who live in this part of Roma know where is situated this hotel ..of course. So , maybe good idea should be to make it clear for people. Thank you.

Prós: I liked having breakfast

Contras: There was no problem at all.

Contras: The staff for reception was poor. The internet it's workinkg only on the lobby even the wi-fi internet it's working only on the lobby, and was very expensive in my opinion (3Euro/ hour at desktop , wi fi = 5Euro / hour)

Prós: The hotel is very close Piazza San Pietro and in the neighborhood there are store such as supermarkets , hairdressers, bars, very lively place. I had my breakfast included in the price , but outside the hotel there was a nice bar where you can taste real nice Italian coffee and cornetti so I'd suggest to gust cross the street and have your breakfast there, so that you can have the whole Italian experience. I am Italian so for once I don't mind just having my breakfast at the hotel , where more and more often you see coffee not being done anympre the Italian way but guests can help themselves from those coffee machines. The people working at the hotel was nice. The room was modern and comfortable and clen. Good bed.

Contras: I am satisfied with the quality of the hotel , but if I HAVE to find something, I'd say that they should put a kind of bar service , where you can ask a real cappuccino or espresso .

Prós: It was situated just a 10 minute walk away from the Piazza San Pietro... All amnities were close by and bus stop and metro station were just a couple minutes away from the hotel! Very quiet area and staff were friendly... Lactose free milk was also available. All in all I do recommend it.

Contras: It's a matter about the things one searches for; - no toast and no variety of fruit were available for breakfast - it was a very quiet room overall, but when other tourists in adjacent rooms would wash we could hear the noises

Prós: The breakfast was not too bad, you can have everything from omelet to Nutella and Yogurt. They have a TV showing the activities in the Vatican. It is also very close with the Vatican.

Contras: The room could be cleaner and more comfortable. Everything was basic, a bit too expensive for the price that we paid.

Prós: Room is lovely, nice and clean even had a balcony which we didn’t think we would have. warm and powerful shower. Man at the reception was extremely helpful even gave us a map with places to make sure and visit during our trip (including which bus/train to take

Contras: - Door shuts weird (have to really push it in to make it shut properly) - Shower was strange to turn on to begin with but once you get the hang of it it’s perfect! - Can sometimes hear people walking to their rooms but it’s the same in every hotel

Prós: The balcony view was fantastic

Prós: Huge, cozy and warm (in January) room with great view

Prós: Everything

Contras: The hotel is in very good zone and it is very good choice money-quality. The staff is extremely kind.

Prós: Clean, comfortable. Location

Contras: No English channels on Tv. Very small shower

Prós: the decoration

Contras: poor breakfast

Prós: It was pretty clean! Atleast that.

Contras: It's not anywhere near a 4*! There were small trash cans on top of the breakfast tables... There're much better 3* star hotels in center. Room was so tiny and the mattress were awful!!! All of my body ached! Bedsheets were so used that there were holes in them!!

Prós: Very clean Nice breakfast Supper staff! Renata at the reception is welcoming, professional, and always did above our expectations.

Contras: wi fi is very slow, so if you need it for work it is a problem

Prós: The hotel was in close proximity to a metro station which provided access to a number of key points in the city. The facility was clean and well maintained.

Prós: Good value for money and location, also the rooms were very clean

Contras: The view was nothing special, but I did not have any requirements

Prós: It's convenient with metro but it's hard to transport by taxi.

Contras: Staff do not have reliable and state-of-the-art informaition about tour of Rome and Vantican.

Prós: Very well located and very good value for money. Staff are nice and rooms were clean

Prós: Excellent location. The room was clean and comfortable, however this is not a 4 star hotel as announced.

Contras: Internet is not free. They have a desktop machine in the lobby for "free " use, however if Internet is required it is necessary to buy a password!

Prós: The hotel was restored, new furnitures. The room was tidy, clean. The staff was very, very friendly. The hotel is very good located, close to metro, bus station.

Prós: Silence, clean environment, correct service, situation and convenient city transport connections

Contras: Obligatory presence of table (desk) suitable for PC-working; English chanels in the TV-set (CNN, BBC etc.) if it is possible.

Prós: Cleanliness and hygiene were excellent.

Prós: Good room size and cleanliness

Contras: No A/C in the hot summer, no fan. I remained awake the whole night and could not do my next day meeting properly. This was total disaster for me.

Prós: This Hotel whilst not luxury was perfect for our needs, it provided a base for exploring Rome and a place to sleep, considering our 7-day metro tickets were only 16euros each it catered our needs perfectly and saved us a lot more then staying in the centre of the city. However people used to a higher standard may not like the basic facilities. Therefore take the other reviews with a pinch of salt ask yourself, what you need? If like us all you want is a 'base' then Aurelius is good. If you want lots of facilities and high quality look elsewhere. However the staff were friendly to us (it may be where we at least tried to speak some Italian?) and not sure what other reviewers mean by "rude" staff. The reviews ive read here could reflect the hotel but yet again everyone sees things differently!

Contras: We did have an accident getting out of our bathroom where my partner caught (and cut) her foot on a exposed jagged edge of tiling on the floor where it had either been unrepaired/ left unattended or poorly constructed. So better care with the decor of the rooms is in order!

Prós: Friendly staff, good facilities and breakfast

Prós: Perfect! Buono!

Contras: Nothing. All ok

Prós: This property was a last minute booking, and had a good price, despite the many drawbacks. The room was warm on a cold January night, I could open the window despite being on the 6th floor, and the staff was friendly.

Contras: I’ll only highlight the most important aspects of the hotel’s drawbacks: FYI - it says 4 stars, but is a 3 star hotel at best. The bed is not comfortable, you can feel the coils. The breakfast was as simple as possible - only one flavor of cheese and one option for meat. Basic, basic. There was such a lack of character in the hotel, that it was actually noticeable. If I’m in a pinch, and didn’t book ahead of time - it would be ok to stay here again. But I’m not planning on it.

Prós: Reception area, restaurant and bar

Contras: Wall paint, bed sheet, blankets and towels all old

Prós: The staff are very friendly. The price was very reasonable but I guess you get what you pay for. Shower worked just fine.

Contras: Not very close to the Center of Rome, about a 15 minute ride using the metro or a taxi. A taxi will cost you $15 US Dollars one way to main tourist attractions. The room was very hot and the AC did not work very well. The bed was hard. They serve breakfast for about $10 but no other meals and nearest restaurant is not too close.

Prós: The room was very peaceful.

Contras: The double bed was not confortable because the mattress was split.

Prós: Clean

Prós: Pleasant and friendly staff. Quite close to the city centre (~500m from metrostation). Free parking and great offer on the room. Breakfast was ok.

Contras: They should not refer themself as a "4 star" hotel. I've been to classier 2 star hotels. Rooms were fairly clean, but need a full renovation as does the whole hotel. People who expect this hotel to be a 4 star quality are going to be dissapointed. The restaurant is available only for groups.

Contras: noisy, not efficient air condition

Prós: This hotel was pretty close to a metro stop which made it easy to get around Rome. They also had very convenient, free, parking for guests. The location is on the edge of Rome, so when driving, it was nice to not have to drive far into Rome to find this hotel. The room was clean, and fairly spacious. I would stay here again!

Contras: The room wasn't bad, but there were a couple places that could have used some updating like a little peeling wall paper, minor stuff.

Contras: Distance, quality of dotations, food ...

Prós: price very good

Contras: the food available - the restaurant food was very unappealing, only a set menu on offer. and the breakfast available was very limited. the hotel did not seem to match a 4 star rating.

Prós: Free parking, very quiet location. Very clean room. Good value for money.

Contras: No water (bottled) inside the room.

Contras: There wasn’t a kettle to make a cup of tea Thanks

Contras: Breakfast was poor. But croissant was amazing.

Prós: On a main road into town, bus stop out front. Breakfast plentiful and lots of options. All Tourist Information printed out on Front Desk easily found including route numbers; ticket prices etc. Great variety of Restaurant’s within 1km walk.

Contras: The second bedroom in the family room had 2 single beds and a rollaway as soon as you walked into the room; this made the room very cramped and nowhere to put cases (not a good arrangement for older teenage kids). Also nowhere to hang towels other thank over the bath - with 5 people having showers was a lot of wet towels. The second bedroom was ridiculously hot even when we turned off all air-cond’s in room and we had to get maintenance to bring us a plug for the bath.

Prós: breakfeast

Contras: service

Prós: Hotel was easy to find from the motorway and had free parking. Attractive, spacious reception/lounge area and clean and comfortable rooms. Very quiet at night, and comfortably cool thanks to air con in spite of very hot weather. City centre accessible via public transport. Helpful staff who allowed us to leave luggage in hotel and car in carpark next day while we explored the city. Bus from outside hotel goes direct to Vatican area. Good value hotel for price.

Contras: Area around hotel was ok but a bit scruffy & unattractive. (Did not feel unsafe tho) a bit of a walk to bus stop into city centre - we couldn't find it at first, so took metro instead which was a horrible experience - overcrowded, hot and smelly. No problems getting bus back tho. No restaurant for evening meal so we had to eat out - advise doing this in city as not much in local area. Rooms a bit on small side with no view, but fine for a short stay.
