Bed and Breakfast Flavius - Rome

Very tidy, very easy to find food in restaurants and small shops nearby. The little rooftop open terrazzo overlooking Rome is great, the breakfast is rather simple but will do. What we most missed was a water heater for cooking our own tea at other times in the day.

We stayed 4 nights in the B&B Flavius in a double room with e french bed and an external, but private bathroom. The staff was very friendly, the breakfast (for Italy) plentiful and the location (for the overnight price) great (5-10min walk to the coliseum).

The Bed and Breakfast exceeded my expecations. The Location is fantastic, very nice area with nice view Very Clean room ,comfortable bed, extra covers and pillows, very good air condition and heating system,clean bathroom The staff (family who are running the B&B) are very friendly they provide all the information a customer might need and they are happy having a chat with the clients as well. the B&B isnt far from public transport -- my only comment is that the breakfast in Rome is very sweet which might not suit all the tastes, so no cheese or bacon served just sweet stuff ! I recommend this place and I would def go back again

Ricardo and his mother were very warm,kind and helpful.

The room was very clean. And the bathroom was spotless. It was the cleanest room I rented during my 3 weeks in Europe. The sheets and blankets were washed and very comfortable. The room was really small, but that didn't matter. Breakfast was simple but filling. You get to eat on the balcony overlooking the city. It's relaxing. My only mistake was not calling far enough in advance to tell them my arrival time. We only called half an hour in advance and ended up waiting another half hour for the guy to get there and give us our keys. But it was really a great place to stay. We were very satifisfied. There are small grocery stores close by, on the same street that sell good and inexpensive wine and crackers and fruit. There are restaurants close by to eat at and banks and ATMs convenient to change money. A great stay.

Nice apartment rooms in a central location. Walking distance to the Coliseum and not far from other locations, also nearby to a metro station. We only met one of the owners, Riccardo, and he was very helpful, providing maps and details of where to find things. He also came to find us on the first day when we got a little lost finding the hotel!

Room was clean, secure confortable. Ricardo and his mum were friendly and helpful. Location excellent. Colosseum at end of street. On top floor and serviced by lift. Our French double bed though smaller than we are used to was comfortable enough. Our Bathroom was separate but only a few steps away and exclusvie for our use and clean. The breakfast served on terrace with lovely view of rooftops of Rome, was adequate. Would definitely stay again.

We have stayed there for 3 days. Great b&b hotel and superb location! Very comfortable, clean, well equipped! 5-7 min by walking to Colosseum and 3 station of Rome Metro. I would like to recommend this place to my friends strongly :)

Great location. Decent price.

There was no indication at the door of bed and breakfast Flavious. We thought that we were at the wrong adress.

Excellent location, very good breakfast and so cute and attentive hotel owners!

This B & B is excellent and I would recommend it to everyone. It is so close to the centre, public transport and monuments. The staff were incredibly helpful in all respects. Definitely worth a return visit !

Good enough, you got what you expect.

Very good ratio between quality and price. Close to Coliseum. Very good welcoming.

Thanks for Flavius B&B that we have a wonderful stay in Rome(three nights), the location is excellent, local bars, small shops just around the corner, two nice churchs close by... The holder could speak Eng and provide all necessary info including map, bus/metro routing, Rome pass, schedule... The room is very clean and quiet, we orderd a room with share bathroom, turns out a big private bathroom just next to our room, the rest two rooms with private bathrooms, so no need to worry... We enjoyed our breakfast in the room since it's winter, still cold outside, otherwise, the ideal location for breakfast is a sweet balcony, just like the pic, and food is delicious. We look forward to next stay in Flavius and will definitely recommend to our friends. CZ from China

May be to keep the brekfast time all days to have enough time to visit if we stay only 2 or 3 days

The room(no bathroom)was so small.But with good view from the terace,and good owner.

Great price for value and location in Rome. Less than ten minutes walk to the Colosseum/Forum and convenient to metro and buses. You do get a nice breakfast in the morning, but other than that there is no staff present, so it is more like subletting a room than a hotel experience. Good if you just want a cheap, clean place to stay in the middle of Rome. Only three rooms total - two w/private bath inside, one with private bath down the hall. I stayed in the smallest room with a French double bed, which is small but fine for two (petite) people.

Nice hotel, very well located (15 min to Coliseum by foot, close to stations from both lines of roman underground). Breakfast on a little terrace with a lovely view (we wondered what would happen in case of rain though, as there is no other common place), with special grade for coffee, which was excellent. Room was clean, with free air conditioning (almost a necessity!). I would recommend for young couple as it is really worthy the bargain, but maybe not for older persons, or children.

We hired a shuttle through the hotel from the airport to pick us up and bring us directly to the hotel, which happened. When we got to the hotel the door was locked and the driver had to call the owner who does not live on site. We waited for 10 min. before he arrived. The driver stayed with us. Lift up to the 5th floor, lovely terrace for breakfast with view of Rome rooftops.

Great little B&B close to the Colosseum in a very nice neighborhood. The room was quiet even though I expected to hear the other guests as other reviews indicated (maybe the neighbors were just really quiet). The airconditioning worked well and our room was clean. The breakfast was ok, not great. The owner was very kind and helpful. Good value for the price.

I loved this place, was very central. The staff are lovely and extremely helpful. The room was very clean and had everything we needed. I would highly recommend staying here when you visit Rome.

Quiet and family b&b. A great surprise nearby the Coliseum. Rooms really clean and spaciousness. Really freandly treatment. A really good option.

This B&B has an excellent location, nicely furnished and very clean rooms, and - since it is on the last floor - a splendid terrace where you can hang out, and where they serve the breakfast. The only thing you might not like if you need to work, that in the room there is only one, small, rounded table. Overall the place is great, the owner is friendly and helpful. I was lucky enough to find an offer and payed 30% less for the room, but the medium prices are reasonible and absolutly worth it, considering that you are in the downtown of Rome.

Incredible place, super clean, great owners, fantastic rooftop patio. Amazing low season prices. Owners aren't around much (other than making you great cappuccinos in the morning) so it's almost like an apartment rental, minus the kitchen. Would recommend to anyone.

Flavius is in an excellent location (a few minutes from Colosseo), in a beautiful building with cozy and clean rooms. I wish the weather had been a bit warmer so we could enjoy our breakfast on the terrace with a splendid view. Giordano and Ricardo are both very nice and will give you really good advice (e.g. no point renting a scooter as walking is the best means of transport in Rome;) There are nice restaurants nearby (Hosteria Isidoro, Trattoria Nerone close to Coloseum). For great wine and cheese I recommend a shop near Manzoni metro station. The only thing which might bother some (it wasn't a problem for us) is that you do hear guests from other rooms. No problems with hot water though :) Overall we had a great stay and I hope to return to Flavius one day!

Giordano was very nice and helpful and it was great to stay there for 5 days. But... the heating wasn't working efficiently enough, so it was pretty cold, especially at evenings and nights. and yes - you can hear absolutely everything from the room opposite or from the hall. there was no problems with hot water, although bathroom was really tight, but clean and nice - ther were fresh towels, shampoo and washing gel and even hair drier - pretty awsome. I don't get, why they tell people to ride to Colloseo and walk to the hotel, because it's pretty far (with suitcases!!) and up the hill. it's much closer from San Giovanni, but from Colloseo it's just easier - maybe that was the point. to sum up - the journey, staying at the B&B was worth the price and time - Rome is awsome and i'd be delighted to come there again. and Flavius is a pretty good choice to stay in:) greetings from Poland

We stayed in Rome for three days. Giordano, the household, was a very charming and kind person. He made breakfast for us and gave us kind instructions to travel in Rome. The location was not far from the Closseo. It should take you about 10-15 minutes to walk from the Closseo to the hotel. The hotel was very quiet but the room was quite small. BTW, the wall was so thin as we were complained by our neighbours. You'd better keep your voice low although you enjoy an exciting stay in Rome, which we believe you will definitely do.

The colosseum is all of a 3 minute walk from the BnB and the road leading down from it there are a few nice restaurants you can eat at. The distance from the BnB to the main square and other attractions is very close and a short walk away give or take 10 minutes. Ricardo was wonderful and very helpful as our Italian was limited and i will definitely go back!

We were very pleased with this B & B. Excellent location. The staff was pleasant and helpful. We would stay there again. A sign on the outside of the building would help travellers find the B & B.

B&B Flavius is a great value, easy walking distance to the coliseum, forum, circus maximus and a number of other sites that everyone wants to see in Rome. Easy to find if you use the address numbers on the building. We asked Flavius to set up a taxi from the airport (Mercedes limo for E40). And we arranged a taxi (E10) to the Termini for train to cruise ship ... You'll want platform #28 to Civatevecchia -- train probably says Pisa (about E5/person). Flavius was great place to stay to see that part of Rome. You'll have some street noise and hear some of the local chatter through your window. Hot water didn't last long in shower, but that might have been the time of day, etc. All in all, we'd stay there again. Very helpful owners who went out of their way to make sure everything was just right. It's easy to see why Flavius gets such high ratings.

First time in Rome and Flavius was okay. Nice room, nice and friendly owners, good location, very central, a bit noisy, small bathroom with some warm water problems. But in general a good place to stay.

The staff was extremely helpful and friendly. They gave us directions, maps, suggestions for places to visit. We were very happy with our stay and would return.

It is on the top floor(5th) of a building and has a wonderful roof terrace.We had breakfast there. We would recommend it to friends and plan to stay there again on our next visit to Rome.

A very comfortable place to stay, bang in the middle of some very big tourist attractions, and 5 mins from a metro station and restaurants which was very handy! A scrumptious breakfast on the terrace each morning! Staff very friendly and helpful and made us very welcome.

Lovely stay, very welcoming owners and perfect location, 10 minutes walk to the Colisseum! We arrived late and felt very safe walking around the area at 12pm at night. Gorgeous roof garden and decent breakfast, definitely would recommend Flavius to anyone!

This was our last B&B at the end of 5 weeks in Italy so we wanted our last two days to be excellent. Flavius was everything we had wanted in convenient and comfortable accommodation - and more. Quite outstanding in all respects.

Flavius is a gem of a find. To have the Colloseum right down the block was amazing. The place itself is small, clean, updated and very comfortable. Outside balcony was a plus as was wireless connection. Would definitely recommend this place as good value.

The rooms were quite sufficeint. Only 2 blocks to the collaseum and 2 blocks to the metro.Lots of resturants and markets in walking distance.Giordano and Riccardo are the 2 owners and were very helpful answering questions.A very nice B&B.

Special thanks to Giordano! He was waiting for us and found slightly lost almost in front of the B&B. Great location, walking distance to Manzoni and St. Giovani in Laterano metro station. Coliseum is just down the road, amazing. Nice breakfast in the terrace, Giordano booked the Borghese Gallery in advance for us, and gave us some good tips about place to visit and eat. (Best dinner near the B&B, Buono Amiggi, thanks Giordano, we had the best affordable dinner in Italy!). Rooms are well isoalted from street noisa, but the walls inside allow some noise from adjacent room. Small shower, but we manage it well. Definetly returning!

Our host could not have been more friendly or helpful. We were in the only room (which was perfectly compact) which had a seperate bathroom down 3 steps outside our room, it was large and comfortable. Breakfast on the roof top terrace was very pleasant and the views were lovely. The location was only 5 mins walk from the Collosseum itself and there were a good number of resturants and bars on the walk. Excellent B&B in the heart of the city.

El sitio es tal y como muestran las fotos.los hermanos que lo llevan son muy amables y esta todo muy limpio.no habiamos ido nunca a un b&b la experiencia fue genial;si todos son asi la verdad esque merece la pena.

This was a quaint B&B near the Colosseum. The property was adequate and clean. The shower was a bit small and the hot water would come and go. In fairness, we did not complain about the water issue. If you waited 3 or 5 minutes, the hot water would come back. Girradano was so sweet to us, we would definitely stay there again!

Es totalmente recomendable. La situación es buena, cerca del Coliseo y del Foro Romano y te permite ir andando a los principales lugares de interés. El trato ha sido excelente, los dueños son muy amables y facilitan toda la información que necesitas sobre lugares para visitar y restaurantes para comer por los alrededores. La habitación es amplia y silenciosa y el desayuno se puede tomar en la terraza.

Ricardo was very helpful both with arrangements from the airport and bus tickets to our next destination. In fact, when we asked about whether we should purchase the bus tickets in advance, he went on his own to the bus station and purchased them for us so we wouldn't have to make the trip! The rooftop setting for breakfast was very nice. We were provided with breads, yogurt, coffee, juice. The location was great for seeing the Colosseum and Roman Forum area and just a few block metro in the other direction to the metro. Ricardo also gave us a good recommendation nearby for a restaurant, Luzzi's. Since the hotel is in a building with apartments it was a bit noisy through the early nighttime on the weekend. Otherwise, we would recommend this hotel to others who want good service and a moderate price.

We enjoyed everything. The location is great - it is 5 minutes walk down the nice street to the Colosseum! The breakfasts on the open terrase are tasty. The property is very quiet. The owners are very friendly, and their advises were so helpful for us.

Hot water not working was our biggest issue here

Estuvimos alojados en este B&B por tres dias. Nuestra estadia fue muy buena. El dueño es muy amable y servicial. La habitación en la que nosotros estabamos alojados si bien era un poco chica estaba muy bien decorada y limpia. El baño era muy amplio y limpio también. Si volveriamos a visitar Roma, sin duda volveriamos al mismo lugar.

It is wonderful to walk out of your room and look down the street and see the Colosseum. The location was wonderful, the brothers who run the place are so helpful and great. I would recommend this place to anyone. We were there on our honeymoon and stayed in the room with the private bath. Highly recommended.

Giordino was very hospitable and helpful. He provided us with a map and recommending what to see. The accomodation is very close to the Colosseum and Forum which are incredible. Scrummy breakfast was served on the rooftop terrace in the sunshine.

Flavius was a very nice little bed and breakfast about ten minutes walk from the Colosseum. OK price, nice staff. The only think that could be improved is the breakfast. What about some fruit and fresh bread?

A good choice for people who don't want the B&B just to sleep overnight. Breakfast is very poor, rooms are very noisy. Location is very good just 300m from the Colosseum.

Very welcoming owners (brothers), they were very hospitable. Excellent breakfasts on a great roof terrace overlooking part of the city.

We could see the Colosseum at the end of the street which was fab! Close to transport links, in a nice quiet street and did I mention how close the Colosseum is? :-) Lovely big breakfast (toast with butter and jams, yogurt, croissants, cakes, fresh orange juice and coffee/tea... yummy)... and this can be eaten in your room or out on the balcony. I booked this as a surprise 30th Birthday gift to my partner and was overjoyed when we saw how nice the room is. The guys that work there are lovely and so helpful. I can't recommend Flavius enough and when I return to Rome (which I will as it is now my favourite city in the world) there is nowhere else I would consider staying.

Breakfast needed to be specifically asked for when you wanted it. Spoke a fair amount of English and was happy to store bags for the morning on the day we left.

The Bed & Breakfast Flavius is a real nice and calm place and perfect for a trvel to rome for 1 weekend! It's near the Colosseum and you can easily reach one of the metro lines. You have to take the breakfast in your own room what's not really bad if you think of the TV with flatscreen in your room! If the weather is nice you can also eat on the terrace with a nice sight over rome. I really appreciate the helpful "leader" of Flavius who showed us which metro lines are most helpful and where you can eat something for a good price. All in all it was really nice at Bed & Breakfast Flavius.

Very Nice B & B. Host was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast could have been bit better.

Everyone we meet at the Flavius was wonderful. All the caretakers were helpful with directions and calling taxi for us. Breakfast was great! I highly recomment this Bread and Breakfast. We can't wait to go back. It was a great location, not far from Metro stop and buses.

We definitly enjoyed our stay at Flavius. It was a little further from the Colosseum then expected, but the area made up for it. Everything was quaint and decently surprising.

Jeune homme sympa, bien placé , propre, bon petit déj', pas déçus

Wir haben nicht viel erwartet, als wir das B&B Flavius buchten. Umso positiver überrascht waren wir. Der Besitzer war sehr freundlich und hat uns auch einige wertvolle Tipps für unseren Aufenthalt gegeben. Unser Zimmer war zwar klein, aber sehr ordentlich und sauber. Insgesamt hat das B&B drei Doppelzimmer, eines (unseres) davon ohne eigenes Bad. Allerdings steht das Bad, das sich gegenüber des Zimmers befindet, zur fast alleinigen Nutzung zur Verfügung und ist sehr ordentlich. Das kleine Frühstück wird auf einer Terrasse oder im Zimmer serviert. Die Anbindung an das Metro-Netz Roms ist super, da zwei U-Bahnhöfe (Colosseo und San Giovanni)jeweils in wenigen Minuten zu Fuß gut zu erreichen sind. Alles in allem waren wir sehr zufrieden und können dieses B&B nur weiter empfehlen.

It was a wonderful weekeend, all was very good, thank you for all. Bed an Breakfast Flavius is a beautiful und friendly hotel, when we will stay anytime in rom, we wanted to stay at Flavius too, it´s nice.

Very nice accommodation, one of the few actual queen beds (not two twins stuck together) that we slept on in italy! Very clean and spacious rooms and the breakfast patio has a wonderful view. The breakfast is pretty small (toast and a pastry) so expect to have to get your own afterwards. Riccardo and Giordano were very helpful, even carrying down our luggage when we left. The location is ideal for the coliseum and roman forum, the rest of the city can be a little bit of a walk (15-20 mins), but we didn't mind that, rome is a walking city!

We have recently stayed at Flavius B&B and our host Ricardo was of great help. He provided us with enough info about Rome (even trying his best to communicate in English). The room we had was quite clean and spacious and the location of the property just right. Also great value for money.

I enjoyed breakfast on the terrace and the convenient location. We did not have enough hot water to shower with though others staying at the B&B had no complaint. The manager was not on the premises when we arrived but was helpful later in making reservations for us.

Lovely people - really helpful. We were met outside on our arrival as it's not that obvious which buzzer to ring when you arrive at the building. So giving them the most accurate arrival time you can will help you both! Breakfast on the terrace was a lovely way to start the day. Very nice district with the colloseum at the top of the road but is less chaotic and so quieter than the centre of town. Though close enough to everything to walk everywhere. Will definitely stay there on our next visit.

Room is on 4th floor, but there is a lift available! We were served a generous continental breakfast on the terrace each morning by a very friendly and courteous young man. Our room was spacious and clean. BB is about 1/2 mile from the Colisuem, Forum, and metro/bus stops. Ideal for single or two people. Room too small for family with children.

Considering the price, this place was a bargain. It is a little far from Rome's tourist attractions. However, if you want a flavor of how real Roman's live you will get it in this neighborhood. Also, one of the best gelaterias is right down the block

It is a great location, very clean and quiet. You can easily walk to several stores, restaurants and attractions from the room. from the outside it seems ordinary, but the balcony breakfast is great!

The room and bathroom were very clean and relatively spacious for Italy. There was a large closet for clothing and space to store suitcases. The room was very quiet and the air conditioning worked well. There is a small elevator. I do not know if this is typical for a bed and breakfast, but be advised that the owner is only there in the morning. If you need advice or help with reservations, be sure to ask your questions then. The owner was helpful and made a reservation for us at the Borghese Museum and let us use his computer to check e-mail. You will be given your own keys to the outside and inside doors of the building. Note that there is no sign for Flavius on the building. Just ring their doorbell located next to the door. Breakfast was very good, consisting of coffee made to order, rolls, toast, jams, yogurt, and a pitcher of orange juice, served either on the terrace in good weather or in your room. A minor problem was alternating hot and cold water temperature in the shower.

The B&B is very well located, within walking distance from the Colosseum and Palatine; there is a bus that goes by the door so you can take it and just cruise around; the metro is just a few blocks away. Transportation in Rome is very easy since the metro system consists of only two lines that cross Rome. The rooms and bathrooms at the B&B are very clean and neat. There are several small restaurants and trattorias nearby where you can have a decent meal for around 12-15 Euros. In general our stay there was very pleasant. Breakfast, which we had at the terrace, was good but some fruit would be nice. Ricardo prepared some great capuccinos and was really helpful and attentive (thank you Ricardo for keeping our suitcase!) We will definitely go back!!! Maggie and Mike

We had a great time at B&B Flavius. The location is really good, walking distance to metro and to the Colosseum. The owner was very helpful, gave us maps and advice. He also really looked out for us, when a preordered taxi driver charged us more than originally quoted, the owner called the guy and made him return with the money! Highly recommmend, very good value for money spent!

Flavius was an amazing place to stay. My fiance and I were traveling all over Italy and this was by far our favorite place. The owners were so welcoming, (and they offered an airport pickup), served a wonderful breakfast on the terrace of the B&B every morning, and made us feel like it was our home during our stay. The location was perfect as well, literally a 5 minute walk to the Colosseum, and there were several restaurants in the neighborhood. Right down stairs were two grocery/convience stores as well that came in handy! I could not have asked for anything more, and I cannot wait to return for many years to come.

Very cozy, close to the most, located in quite surroundings. Very friendly staff.
