Hotel Grifo

Hotel is good, but the STAFF is outstanding! They really make the differnce. They go above and beyond to make sure you enjoy the city. Great recommendations for restaurants, cafés, traditional food, tourist traps, you name it. I went very well prepared for this trip and yet they provided a couple of great tips that made it even better. Breakfast was ok, just the right amount of things you may need, and the space is not big, but since we were going out very early that was never an issue. The beds were a bit too firm for our taste, but of course that's a very personal thing. OH! And of course the location of this place is perfect to move around the city, walking distance from all places (if you like to walk) and easy access to public transportation as well.

We liked the Hotel Personel and the location MOST! The personel (Eva, Alen and the others who prepared for us the breakfasts and did the cleaning!) are so kind and helpful! They showed us on the map of Rome where it is worth to go for a dinner, where we can go shopping and how to get there. Whatever we needed - like printing the document or leaving the things in the morning before the flight back - they helped us and were so kind to explain everything! The second MOST beloved fact is the location of the hotel which is just 10 mins away (on foot) from Colloseum and Forum Romanum! We haven't even dreamt of having better location to start exploring Rome than Grifo hotel! There is also one important hint behind this location - you are just in between the historical center of the city and both: Termini Railway/Bus station & Metro station - which is really comfortable if you wish to spare some time and get quicker to Vaticano! We were also nice astonished to find so plenty of nice, friendly and typical-Italian cafe and resturants around the hotel. We really, really recommend this Hotel to everybody who wish to stay there for holiday, enjoy city vibre and local cousine.

The location is wonderful. Less than 1 KM from The Colosseum, Trevi Fountain and many other attractions. The staff were all wonderful to deal with. Always available and more than happy to make restaurant recommendations etc. Also, taking care of booking taxis, dinner reservations and anything we needed. Cannot be overstated - the staff were just wonderful.

Staff was very friendly and helpful. Receptionist welcomed us, told us how to contact him if we need help, gave us a tourist map, marked nearby tourist attractions, and gave us advice on which restoraunts/pizzerias nearby to try out (that advice was good).

Great location with plenty of options of different restaurants and places to eat close by, very close to the Colloseum and within a 15 to 20 minute walk to other sites in Rome. Comfy bed. Good breakfast with plenty of options to suit different tastes, including cereal, yoghurt, fruit, scrambled eggs, sausages, toast and spreads, cold meats and cheese plus sweet treats and different juices plus tea and coffee. Super helpful and friendly staff. Cute street and felt quite safe in the area at night. Room was small but we expected that. Our room overlooked an inner courtyard of apartments and was very quiet at night with absolutely no traffic noise. Good to have a lift even though it was tiny.
