Hotel Alpi - Rome

2.6

The most bad tastes in our mouths were left after the trip. Especially in bathroom, we cannot move in inch due to limited space. During the stay, the road repairing was being carried out.

9.9

More than I expected!! Room and bathroom was very clean. Air conditioning worked great. Breakfast was fabulous- good variety of food. No problem walking to hotel from train station.

9.5

Convenient location - just a short walk away from Termini and several metro stations. But it's on a relatively quiet street, so no problem with noise. I had a double room with contemporary decor. It's quite spacious and comfortable. The breakfast was good, though I found the coffee a bit weak for my taste. I stayed for three nights at €100 per night - that's pretty good value.

9.3

The hotel had been recommended to us and I feel was worthy of recommendation. We had a most pleasant stay and thought the hotel is value for money. I thought that the hotel has a nice Rome- feel to it and was very well presented. I could not fault it at all. Although it is very central, we had a great nights sleep at the hotel and would be more than happy to return again.

7.5

Supermarket"CONAD" is very close.

9.6

We've had a wonderful night there: great room, breakfast offered enough choices, everything clean & neat. We had a small double room and it was big enough! The internet was not working in the room but that's the only mishap we've had. The shuttle service to the Fiumicino Airport was a great value-quality service.

9.1

The hotel was at a great location, very close to the Termini station which was one of our requirements due to an early flight the next morning. Also very clean, pretty with friendly staff. Highly recommended. Exceeded my expectations !

9.9

Great hotel at a great price. Excellent location only a few blocks from the main train station and subway lines A and B. Breakfast buffet was simple, but they used good quality ingredients which would have been expensive to buy at the grocery store a block away. Supposedly they shut off the elevator during certain hours of the day, but it worked fine the few times that we tried to use it.

8.0

Good location close to Termini and metro stations. Good breakfast. Friendly staff. Will go back to hotel if travelling to Rome.

7.8

El hotel es bonito,limpio,el desayuno muy bueno,el emplazamiento excelente,el personal y la limpieza muy bien.Vimos mal qué la TV fuese de pago,y las habitaciones renovadas un tanto pequeñas,recomendamos el hotel y,seguramente volveremos.

8.4

A very nice small hotel, conveniently located for transportation, but not plaqued by street noise. Rooms were not big (we signed in for a small double, so no surprise there) but comfortable. All in all the place is well run and definetely worth a recommendation, I felt it retained an air of city charm from a bygone era - maybe just because of the receptionist...

8.5

Mi marido, mis 2 hijas y yo fuimos a Roma por vacaciones y nos sentimos cómodos en el hotel. La habitación cuádruple que nos dieron era cómoda y con balcón a la calle. Está muy bien comunicado a través de metro y autobús para visitar la ciudad (tiene enfrente una parada de bus y la estación de Termini está a 5 minutos a pie.La atención del personal fue buena. La zona es tranquila.

7.5

It is quite unusual that one has to pay 18 Euro to have access to non-italian TV-channels. Only 1 channel in German available for free. Staff in Cafeteria was very friendly, the receptionist less so.

9.0

Great location, clean and spacious room to a high standard. Helpful and polite staff, varied and plentiful breakfast. Would definitely recommend it.

4.7

This is a stop over on my way to Genoa. Found the room very tiny compared to the similar rate paid for hotel in Genoa. The room is equiped with computer, however, the internet access is non-existent after paying for its activation. It was blamed on the service provider and they cannot do anything about it. Had to resort to going to an internet cafe. On the other hand it is near to the train station & subway - makes moving around easier. It is suitable if you just need a place to sleep. (but need to weigh the cost)

7.7

Tiny but comfortable and clean room. The shower is the best part.

9.2

A very pleasant hotel with friendly helpful staff. Good sized, clean rooms with good bathroom. Really excellent breakfast, nice breakfast room. Very convenient for Rome Termini but far enough away not to feel like it. Very good restaurant (Da Vincenza)at far end of street. Would highly recommend this hotel and would certainly stay there again. Nice touch of e-mail awaiting me on return thanking me for custom and asking for feedback.

3.0

Super small room! The furniture is very old! The wifi service is very expensive! 5 euros for 1 hours!!! The front desk staffs are very unhelpful and not nice too. The location is very good which is very near to the train station, but I found that are a lot of others hotel near the train station, so many others choice, I will not go to Alpi in future!!!!

8.6

Matrimonial The hotel is very good. Quite, clean and confortable. Attention in front desk is very good except in the evening when an unpolite gentleman assist you with your keys. He should be instructed in greeting and politeness. The rest of the personnel is great. Breakfast is a most and the ladies in the dinning room are excelent!

7.0

It was my first time in Italy and thought maybe unfriendliness was normal. I received a much better reception at a different hotel. We had two rooms. The room for 4 was outstanding. The room for 3 was pretty bad. If you only have 3 people, I suggest getting a room for 4 for 20E extra.

8.1

This was a nice and reasonable priced hotel. The location is great and within walking distance to the train station. The room was is great condition and I will make reservations to stay with them again on my next visit to Rome.

8.9

Very good hotel with this price in an exvellent location. Highly recommended.

8.9

Las habitaciones muy limpias. con aire acondicionado. Televion de plasma en la cual se veia el canal español. Ponen dos tipos de almohadas:una blanda y otra dura para elegir. Las camas comodísimas. Todo perfecto. IIncluido el precio.

8.5

We chose the small double rooms. Rooms were ok size and the location in 1st floor. Only not good thing was the view from the room, but all the other things were really good for this price.

7.6

family of 4 - good quality of rooms but slightly on the high side in terms of price. 280 euros for 2 nights, then 220 euros for the 3 nights when others in the area go for around 150 euros!

10

For us, the location was excellent, being so close to the Termini but at the same time, quiet & peaceful. The staff were friendly & helpful, the rooms clean. We would definatley return to this hotel.

8.0

the hotel provides vary kinds of rooms.some are new deco-ed,some are old furnitured.every room has different size.we changed our room in our first stay,the staff was very helpful and provided many choices to us.as a four star hotel,the prices is a bit higher and the breakfast is not so tasty as we expected.but the breakfast in terrace is a good idea.

7.2

I had stayed Alpi for honeymoon. Though it is nice hotel totally, I think it will be much more high rating if price be lower than Euro190 such as Euro100~150 on current condition or much more survice-provide + comfortableness-provide.

8.3

First time in Italy and we had no idea of what to expect. Overall we were pleased with the hotel. Service was okay after we checked in. Before though was a challenge. We waited for 2hours for them to get our room ready. But after visiting Italy that is just the way everything is there. They take their time with everything. Room was more than what we expected. Very clean and beds were comfy. The included breakfast was a basic continental; pastries, cereal, fruit, and of course meat and cheese tray. It did the trick and kept us full until dinner. The terrace in the pictures is exactly as portrayed, very pretty. It is ashame that it is not utilized more. The breakfast room was on the ground floor and it would have been nice to enjoy the breakfast on the terrace. Which was a couple of floors up. To far to carry your food to. We stayed in a less expensive room in Florence and there is a difference when you pay an extra 50 euros and I feel well worth it. We visited at the end of May and it was very hot and humid, so if you plan on visiting around the same time make sure your room you book as an air conditioner or you will be miserable. In addition, the location was great. It was within walking distance from the train station.(Which also includes the bus station and the underground metro) So do not be fooled by the taxi drivers, it is a short walk. Save your money for the great shopping. The rooms themselves were very quiet, the only problem was the windows did not block out any of the outside noises. So if you are a light sleeper bring ear plugs or book a room facing away from the street. If you do not feel like eating out everyday there is a market (mercato) less than a block away and they carry everything you need. Last but not least, when you check out double check your bill. I noticed on ours and the other groups we were with that there were added costs that we did not incur; mini bar, extra night of crib use, and etc.

5.5

Personale molto scortese. Colazione povera. Camera molto piccola (nonostante il bagno fosse grande): avevo prenotato una doppia uso singola, ma non c'era spazio intorno al letto e se fossi stata con un'altra persona sarebbe stato impossibile! Buona la posizione e il prezzo, nonostante questo il personale mi ha veramente lasciato senza parole: al desk sono molto maleducati e i facchini ancora di più. Insomma, non consigliato.

4.8

For us, for our beeing in rome, the hotel has an excelent place. Short distances to the antiquity places and to the central raiway station.

2.9

We are a family with 2 children. I was so disappointed with this hotel. Upon our arrival, the desk clerk was cold and unwelcoming. We went to our room and the bathroom looked like there were cigarette ashes on the floor and in the toilet. We asked the have it cleaned, which was done promptly. We were told that there had been a rainstorm and that dirt flew in the window. Since all the windows were closed, I'm not sure how this could have happened. The rooms look nothing like what is on the web. The web rooms look elegant and inviting. The furnishings are completely different than what is actually in the rooms. Our room was old, unimaginative with permanently stained carpeting. We were so disappointed that we asked to see another room, but it was exactly the same. The rooms need to be remodeled badly. The bathrooms were great by the way--clean and modern. The breakfast included no hot food--no eggs or meet, only cereals, yogurt, and breads. This is described as a 3-star hotel but on the door of the hotel there are 4-stars. Not sure what this means. I would never stay here again.

7.9

I often visited Roma and the city is very beautiful... this hotel was very clean and very good relationship price/quality.

9.2

The location is excellent within easy walking distance from Termini and sites. The staff (especially Saverio) were very friendly and helpful. Rooms on the front have a bit of street noise to contend with, but not a problem for me.

8.8

Walking distance from the railway station. Breakfast was very good. Nice clean and comfortable hotel.

9.2

Nice and quiet hotel near a subway station.

9.3

We stayed for two nights, and we had to change rooms after one night. Since renovation was going on there were some old rooms and new rooms, and they gave us an old room before we complained. But except for this, all the personnel are very nice, the rooms very clean and especially the renovated rooms very modern and comfortable. Excellent quality/price deal!

7.1

Hotel ALpi is located just few blocks down the train station. The size of the room was ok, with a spacious bathroom, so no complain. The guy at reception was polite enough but didnt offer enough help and information for the questions on sight seeing tours. What I'd say, he's just doing his job. Breakfast was ok. One thing I find it unacceptable was the hotel is charging 8 euros per room per day per laptop/computer for internet users. Meaning if you have 2 laptops you have to pay double. Where there is free internet at any other hotels I stayed in Italy even just a small hotel, this was certainly the biggest disadvantage.

9.8

Perfect little hotel, within very easy walking distance of the Termini station. Had asked for quiet rooms, so did end up in the top of the hotel - needed to walk through and use two lifts - but not a problem - especially to ensure quiet and privacy. There was renovation work going on but it was never a problem, never in the way, and never noisy. I'd have no hesitation going back. Rooms very modern, comfortable, and great bathroom with multi-shower. Not huge - but fine nonetheless. We were a young couple with an older couple - and the hotel suited us both. Excellent value for money. Staff - and I mean everyone we came into contact with, were friendly, helpful and a pleasure to deal with. This is the perfect tourist hotel - great location. Near all bus and train routes, and close to stations for both metro lines - saving time changing. And last but not least, it has the best breakfast of any hotel I've stayed at in Italy. Lots of choice, fresh, and constantly replenished - cereals, fruit juices, proper coffee, meats, cheeses and good choice of breads, fruit, and usual croissants and sweet breads. I'd wholly recommend staying here - we got it for 75 euros a night. Great value.

6.6

If you don't expect a four star hotel, you will be satisfied. The room was so hot (in December) that we could only sleep with the windows wide open. The fridge did not work.

7.7

nice welcoming, clean rooms, nice hotel

8.3

It was my first time in Roma and I have been very pleased with Hotel Alpi. The room was small but the size was ok as we were here only to sleep ! The room was clean and very well decorated, as well as the bathroom. The breakfast was good with a large choice. The only defect was the orange juice, not fresh. Just one thing a little unpleasant is that we could hear our neighbour when he took his shower. But it was just once a day and it was ok anyway. The staff is competent and helpful.

6.9

chambre plus exigüe que sur le descriptif. température dans la chambre élevée,pas de clim, nous avons du dormir fenêtre ouverte malgré le bruit extérieur.

8.0

The Hotel was really good and our stay there was finally fantastic. Rome was for us surprisingly pretty.

4.3

keinesfalls die strassenseitiegen standard-double-rooms wählen ( sind tag und nacht extrem laut) und extrem klein! 4-stern-standard sehr fraglich

8.7

Our hotel experience was extremely positive. The welcome from the staff was lovely and our room, even though small, was comfortable and value for money. The hotel is in a good location - walking distance to many main sites and close to Termini which is excellent for airport transfers. The breakfast was very good with all food options being constantly replaced throughout the three hour service slot. Overall a very pleasant stay!

9.1

This was my first visit to Rome , i was taking my husband for a surprise Birthday ,so i was delighted with the Hotel, the room was not quite as shown on photo but we had plenty of room , great shower with jacuzzi bath , which is fabulous after a day walking round Rome, we had a balcony and the air con was great especially with the hot weather, breakfast was good though we did not get to eat on the terrace as detailed. The hotel is walking distance to most attractions and the tour bus stop is 5 mins away next to the train station, Transfer from the airport is easy on the train for only 8 euros, though be warned the surrounding area is very squalid and smelly.

6.7

The room was a good standard for Rome, although room decor was a little tired with a lot of smoke stains. Bathroom was very good size but with no shower wall unit or shower curtain it was very difficult to have anything but a bath.

9.4

This is an excellent hotel, within walking distance from Roma Termine and would definately go back again. The room, a standard double, was very modern with a great ensuite and so quiet - you would never guess you were in the middle of Roma! A little bit more expensive that we wanted, but we wanted good quality, which is what we got. The continental breakfast was also adequate & very enjoyable. Would definately recommend it.

6.5

Booked this hotel from internet pictures, not at all what it looked like. But decent hotel very close to train station and nice terrace.

7.8

Nella stanza (per la precisione la 165) aleggiava un pesante odore di fumo, molto sgradevole in un'epoca in cui ormai si dà la possibilità di scegliere tra stanze per fumatori e stanze per non fumatori. Inoltre l'unica finestra della camera dava su una specie di condotto per i tubi, il che rendeva la stanza praticamente priva di luce diretta; questo, oltre a non sembrare consono agli standard di un hotel a 4 stelle, fa venire il dubbio che agli utenti di Venere.com o organizzazioni simili vengano riservate le stanze meno belle della struttura.

5.8

No room service available, no laundry service available, Elevator service erratic, and surrounding area dirty.

8.9

Très bonne impression générale pour cet hôtel dans lequel je retournerai sans problème. Personnel compétent aussi. Seuls l'ascenseur (je pense aux personnes agées) et le petit déjeuner (café et qualité de la nourriture)... mériteraient un peu plus d'attention.

9.4

Major negative: The room smelled of stale cigarette smoke. Would definitely return to te Alpi & recommend this hotel. For our pics of Florence and Rome: http://share.shutterfly.com/action/welcome?sid=0IYuXDNq0bsXFA

9.8

Hotel con un trato muy agradable, la ubicación excelente, muy próximo a la estación términi, que permite movilizarse facilmente por Roma, la habitación y el cuarto de baño amplios y muy limpios, el desayuno abundante y variado, estuve con mis dos hijos y si viajamos a Roma, volveremos al mismo hotel

8.0

Our2 day stay in Rome followed an 11 day Mediterranean cruise. We chose this hotel for easy access to Trains to the Airport and from Civitavecchia. Excellent location as far as close to the Termini. We were able to walk for 20 minutes to get to Villa Borghese & Spanish steps easily. We had a wonderful traditional meal at a nearby restaurant, La Famiglia for very reasonable. Other than all the stairs, the hotel was very nice.

9.7

I think the receptionest wasn't having a great day, but it was our first night in Italy...after that we saw very nice people at the reception desk. My husband and I were traveling with out the kids, perfect room for a couple...small but just right for the two of us, especially spending all day out.coming back for a nice, clean room was perfect. the bathroom is nicley designed i loved it (I am an interior designer).The breakfast was great to start a long day. good coffee.a walk from the bus and train station. our room was in the third level, i think. we had to go to the second level, walked from there then took the hyrolick elevator to the third! it was always funny to get there. used it as an excersise:)

10

Alpi is a really lovely hotel. It is about five blocks east of Termini and a short walk to the major sites. It has white marble floors, a helpful, multi-lingual staff, spacious rooms with tall ceilings and a first-rate breakfast. Enjoy!

9.6

Close to the train station, a subway stop, and a lot of restaurants nearby. The hotel and breakfast were excellent, and the staff very nice.

7.9

Excellent value for money with very helpful staff.

9.5

Spacious rooms and great location 5 minutes walk from train station. Staff very helpful - able to recommend good restaurant nearby and arrange airport transfers.

5.6

Typical hotel near the Termini on the better side of the train station. Area was relatively clean and quiet and a short walk from the train. The terrace is advertised as a place to have a drink etc but was not staffed the evening we were there. The desk clerk said he would send the "boy" up with something if we wanted. We declined finding the term objectionable.

10

We spent seven days in Rome and all i can say is !wonderful!. For us the best was the location ,with bus sation and metro close to the hotel so easy to get the center.Talking about the hotel as i said before everything fantastic, employees, services, breakfast etc.

6.9

I had already been there. it's a good hotel. this time I must complain they gave me a very very small room; but they also have nice and spacy rooms. location is not romantica as comapred to expect. in Rome but for business travellers (suvh am I) extremely handy (5 min. walk to Railway Termini station and underground)

5.2

Pay TV didn't work. Other patron's luggage banged noisily on walls. Charged more than Venere.com online quote. Definitely not worth the money. Any 3 star at half the price would be as good or better

7.9

I loved the Hotel Alpi! What a find. I had booked it on a discounted rate, hope to find a deal like that again as I would love to stay there again and again. I've been to Rome many times and found the location to great.

9.5

Alpi is a little gem of a hotel by the termini. I was very pleasantly surprised with the room, which was modern and very clean (though snug and cozy, though I liked that), and the hotel was a steal for only 95 euros that particuar night for a double room. I would recommend it for anyone who needs to be by the termini - you may find it harder to get into the center of Rome but you will get a better price and can always take buses or taxis very easily.

4.6

Not a very exciting place. Its vicinity to the train station is the only plus.

9.2

Even though the hotel isn't in the greatest area being near the Termini, the hotel was very nice and convenient for travel by train. Our room had a private balcony, was clean, and ready upon our arrival. We wouldn't hesitate to stay there again on any future visits to Rome.

8.5

The hotel was clean, well appointed, and overall nice, located a short three blocks from Roma Termini and Piazza del Repubblica. At night with the window open onto the street, one can appreciate the sounds of a big city: cars, emergency vehicles, or singing pedestrians walking past after a late night out. We would consider staying there again for the central location.

10

Wonderful hotel.

9.9

Been a long time since I stayed here - came to site to rate another hotel and found this one with no rating. I had a fabulous time here. Room was smallish, but big enough.... Little touches make this one of the nicest places I have stayed - someone to carry the luggage for you, little presents on New Year's Eve etc etc. Loved it!! 2 minute walk from train station - the walk smells a bit as there are so many trees just full of birds, but even so, in day time, it's really pretty. Can be a bit shady at night time, but we ddin't run into any trouble.

7.2

We had a standard double room & although it was small, it was clean & adequate for a short stay. The bathroom was fine & the service good. Breakfasts were excellent. There was plenty of choice & the food was fresh & plentiful. My only slight critism would be that I would have liked tea available (there was only coffee, which was very good, but still, I missed my tea!). Also, the hotel was quiet enough, but the traffic noise & noise from the street was a real nuisance. I don't suppose anyone can turn down the volume on a whole city, but better soundproofing would have been wonderful!

9.3

Hotel perfectly located near Station Termini Quiet area and the hotel staff is very welcoming Really nothing to complain about

7.3

I had requested a two beds and smoking. Was given one bed & a couch and non smoking. When I went into the bathroom the floor was soaking wet! I called down and insisted on the two beds and smoking and I got it, but they were not the friendliest in the change. Everything else was very nice.

9.1

Excellent room for the money. Good location, very close to the train station. Spacious waiting room on first floor.

8.6

Very convinient regarding access to communication. Only 5 min walk from the Ryan air bussen.

9.6

The rooms are clean and tidy, ask for a room to the back of the hotel, the breakfast is really great, coffee ok... we enjoyed it a lot!!

6.6

Mildew odor from enclosed shower so strong as to prohibit sleep. Mngmt failed to respond to several requests for correction. Agree with most comments on great breakfast, convenient location.

8.2

Location is great and Rooms are fantastic. We had a room that faced onto the street which was very noisey but this was only a small complaint. Breakfast buffet is great and we would definitly stay here again.

9.4

I enjoy staying in Hotel ALPI. It is very close to Termini station. The reception is kind and good guide. If they provide the special price again, I'll stay again in this Hotel. But, Internet point near Hotel is not good facility.

9.2

We stayed at this hotel for 4 nights and couldn't have asked for anything more. Our flight was cancelled until the following day and Carla unexpectedly upgraded us to a Superior Room for the extra night. The Breakfast Buffet is superb. We are returning to Rome in March and will definitely stay at Hotel Alpi again.

5.7

the space of the room was not adequate for four people, room did not represent the photos on the web page, sliding door window to the balcony was cracked, breakfast was great, service was great, room was the only disappointment

9.6

The hotel service was excellent. The room was quiet and the breakfast appropriate. A great value for the price paid.

6.6

Hotel Alpi is in a good location because it is walking distance to the Termini. It is in a relatively quiet area. Room and bathroom are clean but not spacious. Breakfast was good. Overall quality of service could use some improvement, though. I would recommend this hotel to young couples.

7.8

All fantastic.

8.9

For the reception/management a hint: As a tourist who loves and visits Italy often I also try to study and use my italian language when ever possible. When we speak italian would be nice if the staff were patient to communicate in italiano anche. Grazie.

8.6

sicuramente ci ritorneremo!

7.8

Hi All, I stayed in a single room in the Alpi. I found the room quite small however according to Rome's standard it was average. The room itself was lovely, and the staff very accomodating in your Italian kind of way! The location was handy as the Termini was at a stroll a 10 minute walk, from here you've access to the underground system and so to the rest of Rome. I would certainly stay here again.

8.7

Fantastic, relatively central hotel. Lovely and clean, modern rooms, perhaps on the small side but this wasn't a problem for us. Great place to base yourself to explore Rome and is usefully very near the Termini station. Breakfast is really good too, although can get a bit crowded.

8.5

old building but new rooms. very good relationship between price/quality

8.7

this is the second time in 18 months that I have stayed at the Alpi Hotel. The room that I had (shared with a friend) this time was wonderful, with more space and more quiet (facing the inner courtyard than the room that my husband and I had last time. For the price, this hotel is a winner! Renovated bathroom, comfy bed linens, elevator, decent breakfast (although the breakfast room can be very crowded and the coffee was dreadfully weak), and super location 4 blocks to the Termini train/metro/bus station and just off Piazza de la Independenza, and near some nifty archeological sites and the National Museum of Rome.

8.9

When I arrived at the hotel, they had no record of my reservation through Venere. They blamed the website and said that a reservation is ONLY confirmed if the hotel sends an email. You think maybe this should be on the website? C'mon Venere...get it together.

8.1

Very good, clean and designed hotel. Recommended. Close to the bus station: convenient. Tres bon hotel, propre et design. Recommande. Proche de la station de bus: tres pratique.

9.1

This hotel is very close to the Rome Termini Rail/Bus/Metro Statiion. It very easy to get to on foot. Perfect location.

9.3

Great location to Termini station. Easy walk. Arranged pick up at airport and return to airport for us. Cute little roof top garden for a glass of wine. Nice house wine. A sweet little find for the money.

7.8

Staff were extremely friendly and helpful. They went out of their way to assist us with our needs while at their hotel. The hotel is within walking distance to Termini Station(train); yet far enough to be away from the noise of the Termini station area. Our room was small but that seems to be normal in European hotels. Several nice and reasonable restaurants in the area. I would stay at this hotel again.

8.4

Excellent breakfasts. Relatively easy walk with suitcases from Roma Termini. Reasonable restaurants nearby. Highly recommended.

10

Breakfast was very good, cold meat , cheese, cereal, fresh fruit, juice, pastries, hot toast, coffee and tea. Local restuarants in area were numerous and within easy walking distances. Food was good at all of them. Hotel's location to public transportaton was excellent. Within walking distance of main train station and metro lines. Very close to local grocery store which came in handy when we had to leave hotel before breakfast to tour Vatican. We bought cheese, parma ham, juice and pastry to eat on our balcony before we left for the day. All the help was very friendly and helpful. Rooms were very quiet.

9.6

Hotel Alpi was wonderful. We were very happy with our stay. I recomend this hotel very highly. The breakfast was really great. The location to Termini very close. The hotel very clean. Excellant value.
