Riofreddo Holidays from NZ$2,618

This is a good, basic hotel which is convenient for St Peter's and the Vatican. The city centre is also within easy reach via the metro. There is a buffet breakfast with a good selection available in the morning. Staff were very helpful, particularly the night manager who was very helpful when I had a minor accident - a fall in the room. See below. Likewise, the chambermaid was able to confirm that my hairdryer was not working and it wasn't my fault! (It was quickly repaired). The room was small but compact with enough space for me and my belongings. Wifi was patchy at best and the TV channels did not offer much entertainment, the exception being a Sean Connery film (in English, curiously) which I hadn't seen. The one problem: Aurum Hotels, please do NOT have a step between the bedroom and bathroom; a slope would be much safer.

We just left Rome and our Hotel was in very nice neighborhood close to Metro line B Bologna which is 9 min walk from hotel to connect us to city center. Beds were very comfortable we had 3 twin bed room with 2 long closets for all three of our clothes nice medium size bathroom and staff at front desk GREAT CREW

Clean detailed room Friendly service Great location Cozy

At the time we were staying in Rome at the EXE Domus Aurea it was hot weather, unusual for October. The hotel had already turned off their central air conditioning for the season, that was the response from the front desk when we complained that the rooms (we stayed in 3 rooms) were very hot, and they just did not do anything to help us. We had to open the windows at night and our rooms were facing the street, so it was very noisy. We couldn’t sleep well because of the noise.
