Alora....if you are looking for a nice place to stay in Rome try under a bridge before you book this dank, dirty, smelly, overpriced,bottom feeder of a "hotel". Couldn't stomach even 2 hours in the room, no exaggeration. If you have already booked then, honey, get your money back asap. There are a million better hotels in lovely rome than this.

Hotel Altavilla... well the location was fantastic- a short walk down the hill and you are near to everything you could want to see in Rome. Other than that, it was not great. When I booked the hotel, I was under the impression that it was a 3* hotel and that it had an internet connection. I booked a twin room for my brother and I, the beds were less than 1 foot apart and the room reeked of cigarette smoke. The bathroom was quite interesting, the door wouldn't lock properly and the shower leaked over the floor. The 3/4 bath was quite amusing! Breakfast was not a high point, we went for breakfast once. Breakfast was very basic, yet there are lots of places to eat nearby. Our room looked out onto a courtyard where renovation works were taking place, thankfully we weren't in our room much otherwise the noise could have been quite bad. I wouldn't stay at Hotel Altavilla again, it's not the worst hotel in Rome- but it was cheap.

Bei dem Preis kann man nicht meckern. Das Hotel macht einen guten Eindruck, viele Zimmer sind renoviert. Sauber ist es überall. Die Lage ist großartig, 3 Minuten zum Bahnhof, 10 Minuten zum Colosseum. Mittendrin statt nur dabei. Das Personal spricht überwiegend englisch und ist nett und hilfsbereit. Okay, über das Frühstück darf man nicht sprechen. Übersichtliche Auswahl, und italienisch einfach. Die Zimmer sind klein, aber sauber und zweckdienlich eingerichtet. Was will man denn mehr bei 60 € für ein Doppelzimmer. Wir (2 Paare, 26-39 Jahre alt) waren zufrieden. Preis-Leistungsverhältnis ist sehr gut. Wie gesagt, finde mal ein Hotel für diesen Preis im Zentrum von Rom. Bei unseren nächsten Aufenthalt in Rom, buchen wir wieder im Altavilla !!

I don't understand from the previous reviews if perhaps there are some old rooms that haven't been renovated, but I found none of the problems listed below. It is a city centre 2 star hotel next to Termini so don't expect marble bathrooms or champagne in your room, but you get a good deal for what you pay for here. The accommodation was clean and bright and the rates on offer were excellent. We ended up staying for two nights more that the initial arrival date becuse every other hotel seemed more expensive and all you need a room for in Rome is sleeping and showering. Can't complain at the budget accommodation on offer, and save your money to spend on the myriad of things to do, eat or buy in the city.
