Viatges a Falvaterra

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.

We had a great two-night stay! The front desk staff provided very precise directions via train to the hotel from our port in Civitavecchia beforehand, so we had no trouble finding Relais de la Poste. The location was excellent and very central. Close to the Spanish Steps, Trevi Fountain, and plenty of shopping, restaurants, and beautiful piazzas - perfect for first timers wanting to take as much in as possible in a short time. Just a 30 minute walk to the Colosseum or the Tiber River and St. Peter’s Basilica in the Vatican City. Our room was quiet, clean and comfortable. They offered a self serve breakfast each morning for an additional cost; and had a cold water and ice filling station available for guests to use at any time. The air conditioning in the room worked great which was appreciated during 40 degree heat! The front desk staff were very kind, polite, and helpful, and getting in and out of the building was easy. We enjoyed our stay here, and would book again should we ever find ourselves back in Rome.

Great hotel in a great location easy to get to from Termini. Breakfast was very good, room was a great size and spotless. Main sites easily walkable, especially the Colosseum and Trevi Fountain. Plenty of restaurants nearby.

Bygningen og hotellet som sådan bar præg af voldsomt slid over årene. Morgenmaden var gennemsnitlig, og minibaren som ellers havde overraskende flotte priser blev aldrig fyldt op. Personalet var venligt og imødekommende. Rengøringen bestod i højere grad af nyredte senge og wc rengøring, mens der ikke var blevet støvsuget under sengen eller fjernet indgroet snavs fra badet siden Nero var kejser i Rom. Stikkontakterne var ligeledes alle ved at falde ud af væggene. Til gengæld var klimaanlægget på værelset nemt at betjene og en life saver i det varme vejr. Tagterrassens udsigt var stærkt overdrevet, og mågerne hærgede de få som forsøgte at spise morgenmad derude uden held. Alt i alt yderst gennemsnitligt hotel med små toppe og mange dale.
