Viatges a Cristóbal Colón

What a delightful surprise. This ancient Estate, with lovely gardens and surrounded by greenery was not what I expected from an “airport” hotel. Note: it is a 10 minute drive from the airport. Dinner at the restaurant was one of my top meals in Italy - delicious, and you can dine al fresco. I didn’t get to see all the spa facilities due to the shortness of my stay but it all sounded ideal for a weary traveller.

Overall a very nice stay at this hotel. I am new to Rome so it is difficult to say what the standard usually is but this hotel is in a quiet and safe part of town but still withing walking distance of very nice restaurants (Osteria Urbana is great!) and the Bologna Metro station. We decided to walk to the Colosseum which took us 45 minutes going past the Fontana di trevi. The view from the patio is very beautiful with lush vegetation and quite a few green parrots to keep one looking ever towards the sky. The breakfast buffet is OK, nothing spectacular but there is a wide range of alternatives. Staff is very helpful and always on hand and we enjoyed every interaction with them as they are so kind and warm. One negative for us was the lack of free bottled water which I do think should be standard in an hotel but that is perhaps just a personal thing for us.

Great location. Modern room.

Found bed bugs in the room and staff had not helped at all. Alternative room provided did not have enough beds and I had to sleep on the floor. After all I have been charged normally. Overall the dirtiest and unfair hotel I have ever been.

Hotel was good! Very close to Roma Termini which was amazing and super helpful on our last day before we had to head to the airport. Place was clean and staff was very helpful when it came to answering quickly and accommodating an earlier check in!
