From the moment we arrived, it was evident that we had stumbled upon a hidden gem nestled in the heart of Rome! We were greeted with warmth and hospitality, setting the tone for our entire stay. The staff exuded a genuine friendliness, always eager to assist and ensure our comfort. Their willingness to accommodate our needs made us feel valued and appreciated guests. As for the tastefully decorated and well-equipped room, we were pleasantly surprised by the level of cleanliness and attention to detail. Each morning, we were treated to a delightful breakfast - from savoury options to sweet treats, there was something to satisfy all our cravings. For travellers seeking a convenient and reasonably priced stay in the Eternal City, look no further than Hotel Galatea!

The WiFi was unfortunately non-functional during our time here.

We arrived late and texted the night receptionist who arrived promptly to show us to our room. The room was large, very clean and well equipped with everything we needed. All staff were extremely helpful and friendly, we felt very at home. We had breakfast included in our stay which was varied and very tasty. Over breakfast Davide would give us tips on where to go for the best food, next time we come we’re looking for the best shopping! Trevi, Colosseum and Spanish Steps in walking distance, but we took a taxi to the Vatican Museums as it was so hot. Would recommend this hotel to all, we had a fantastic stay.

Nothing.

Hotel staff was really nice and friendly - they helped us with all questions that we had, even with arranging a taxi to the airport. Breakfast and coffee were nice - especially when we had it outside, on the cosy internal terrace. Location is great, near all main attractions, as well as nice bars and restaurants.

Process for late night check-ins (after 11pm) is a bit sloppy - reception is not 24/7, so there is additional procedure if you’re checking after 11pm. We had some minor complications regarding our late check-in. Soundproof could be better.

The hotel is just perfect!! The people are super kind! The room is fully equipped! The breakfast was great and in big quantitities! The location is exceptional, 15 minutes walking from Trevi,Piazza di Spagna, Via delCorso, the Colloseum & Vittorio Emanuelle The neighbourhood (Monti) is super hip & it is next to Via Nazionale where you can find all kinds of shops! Dont miss walking down Via Serpenti that is literally 2 minutes walking distance from the hotel. You cant miss this hidden gem hotel in Rome!

everything was perfect!

Excellent location, just by via Nazionale. 10 minutes walk to either Termini Central Station and Cavour Metro station. The Colosseum is also a short walk away. We loved the breakfast as well as the staff, who went the extra mile to ensure we'd get the food we could enjoy (I'm lactose intolerant so they got me lactose free alternatives). The cleanliness also deserves a mention :)

The room was smaller and darker than the pictures made it look like. The hotel is in an old building: beautiful, but that also means that sound insulation is not great - I would recommend bringing some earplugs if you have trouble sleeping with different noises.

We had a good time at Boutique Hotel Galatea! Location was unbeatable - close to Trevi Fountain, Spanish Steps, and Colosseum. We had a an air conditioning issue on day one, but the hotel went all out to make us comfortable - changed our room, gifted us wine, and left a sweet note at checkout, apologizing for the inconvenience. Reception staff (especially Mohamad and manager Camila) were incredibly helpful and kind. Breakfast team (David and a lovely Filipina lady) were exceptional - super caring and loving to us and our kid. Their warmth made up for any minor problem, and it wasn't their fault anyway. They truly made our stay delightful!

The elevator to the hotel floor is tiny and I’m quite claustrophobic, so if you're like me, get ready to climb three flights of stairs because it'll be better 🫣😂

The whole personnel of the small hotel was just marvellous: they considered us very personally, gave advice and excellent hints. They even arranged super nice welcoming decoration with some sparkling in our hotel room on my birthday. The theme events and specially planned walking trips in the city by the great host Virgilio were truly so much more than the commercial ones. Thank you Virgilio, Camilla, Mattia, Priscilla, Davide and Resel! You made our vacation special. We truly want to recommend Boutique Hotel Galatea!

None

Perfect location for a trip to Rome. The rooms have been small but had everything u need for a fair price when it comes to Rome. The staff have been friendly and helpful all the time.

If there is something to criticize, there was an heavy smell in the room, I wasn’t able to figure out what exactly it was, but it was so strong and the air quality suffered because of it.

The staff at the hotel were incredibly friendly and helpful. My spouse and I were there on our honeymoon and the staff went above and beyond to decorate our room with balloons and rose petals and write us a handwritten note. The room was a great size, with lots of storage for our bags and belongings. The bathroom was clean and well stocked with shampoo, body wash, lotion, and lots of towels. We had breakfast on the balcony each morning and when we had to check out super early to catch a flight home, the staff made us breakfast boxes to-go. Would highly recommend this hotel and would definitely stay there again.

I genuinely cannot think of anything that we did not enjoy about the hotel. Nothing but good things to say!

The mattress and pillows were excellent, I slept well starting night 1. Water pressure and temp in shower were excellent. The breakfast room and food were very good. The hotel, Mattia, set up our rides from and to the airport, very helpful. We were in a very good location, walking distance to the metro station and many sites. A wine bar and 4 cafes on our street, make that 6, including an Indian restaurant. AND best of all, an elevator!! Almost forgot, there's also a convenience store on the street.

Could have used 2 luggage stands in the room.
