We were double minded before reaching the hotel as there were mixed reviews. Our room was 405 with 1 double bed and 2 single bed. The room was big enough for our family of 4. Everyday room cleaning was done and so the rooms were always clean. When water was not getting dried in washroom, we informed the reception in the morning before we left for tour and by the time we came back, the problem was solved. Very happy with the room service and the friendly staff.

It would have been better if there were changes in breakfast. We stayed for 5 days and all these days the breakfast was the same. But yes, compared to many other hotels where only croissants and tea were served, this was far better.

Excellent location to Termini station and the beds were perfectly firm just like we both like. The check in was superb the staff all very friendly and helpful.

Well the room itself was a decent size because there is no desk but that makes it somewhat tight to use the room in a comfortable manner but that said I would not change anything by adding a desk because then the room would defiantly be way to small. Since we only stayed 2 night this was not a real issue for us but could be if you need to do some remote work from the room using your notebook.

THE BED. 10/10 I had a 3 nights stay and I gotta say that’s the best bed I’ve ever slept on in my life. The room was nice, and ok for the price considering the fact that it’s super close to Roma Termini. If you’re planning on traveling to other cities then staying here would be the best choice. Staff was great and breakfast was ok, nothing out of this world but it gets you full for sure.

The room keycard stopped working on the last night and the guy at the front desk didn’t give me another key but instead went to open himself, which meant we couldn’t go out as we pleased without having to ask again for him to come and open. He was young and I believe he didn’t know what to do because the next morning another person in less than a minute was able to give me a new key.

The check in staff were very friendly and helpful regarding check in/ luggage storage/ surrounding areas and guided tours and how best to utilise the short time we were in Rome, they were helpful regarding transport to the hotel and to visit other sites too.

Everything was great including the breakfast included in our stay. The kitchen staff were very amicable. I have an allergy to milk and they had soya milk on hand for my morning coffee! They also had a large spread of food available in the breakfast buffet which was very filling and healthy!

Our room was basic but spotlessly clean. The breakfast was buffet and had a good selection to choose from. The hotel staff where friendly and the location of the hotel is great as a base for exploring Rome. It is situated just a few minutes from Roma Termini Station.

Its not what I didn't like as the hotel as it was a really nice place to stay its more just a warning to bring your own hairdryer it didn't bother me but the hairdryer cuts off after 3 or 4 minutes.

Price and location in the city. A little dated but the rooms are clean and have everything you need. Our room was cleaned every day and fresh towels supplied. Breakfast was great and had something for everyone. The reception staff spoke good English and were always on hand if you needed any help. Trevi fountain, colosseum and the Spanish steps all within a 20/30 minute walk. Termini station was 5 minutes away. Several well priced restaurants in the street outside of the hotel, all with great food.

As mentioned the hotel is a little dated in places . The tram line ran straight outside of the hotel but not a massive problem.

Location was good. Breakfast is good too. Staff at reception was helpful. On last day of stay, we need to book taxi and Ibrahim was very helpful to help us.

Nothing much to dislike except the taxi we book was super rude. Upon arrival at destination he just speed off upon seeing us with so many paxs and he assume we want to squeeze all in which we already book 2 taxis but we just stand together at waiting point.

Hotel California was perfect for our stay in Rome. Close to train station, comfy clean rooms, staff warm welcome and friendly. Also organised transfer from hotel at very short notice for us.👍 Breakfast buffet delicious, would stay here again. Highly recommend this hotel. A group of 7 family together we def be back. Lovely hotel.

It wasn't any problem as lots of bars beside hotel. But be nice to have a quiet beer or wine there. No bar facilities.

Hotel California is very convenient to Termini train station in Rome. The included breakfast is more than ample, with many choices of food. The desk staff are very helpful in calling taxis and with advice about local customs. The internet connection is strong. The room was clean and made up each day. These nearby restaurants with outside seating are good and very reasonably priced.

The bed was really hard. Only one small chair was provided - but there really wasn't room for more.

The hotel is really close to all the important Rome attractions (15mins to Colosseum, 20mins to Trevi Fountain and to Spanish Steps). The room was spacious, clean and quiet. The personnel very friendly and helpful. The WiFi was excellent.

The room had a moldy smell each time we would come from outside even if the window was opened all day long. The breakfast was very poor in choices (boiled eggs, cold omelette, some slices of salami and cheese). If you're not very comfortable with your partner, it might be awkward using the toilet and the shower (see the pictures).
