Hotel Apollo - Rome

7.6

This hotel was close to the Coliseum, and walking distance from the Cavour Metro and a fairly easy walk to the Trevi Fountain. I knew it would be expensive to stay at a "nice hotel" in Rome. From what I've heard this was a pretty good deal based on the location, quiet room, clean hotel, and good service we received. The continental breakfast was very nice with a good variety. The room was not spacious, but I've been told you're not really going to find that in a hotel in Rome unless you are paying over $300/night (we paid about $260). We were looking for a quiet room, not a big one, since our goal was to be out during the day and just be in the room for sleeping. We were very satisfied since we couldn't hear any street noise. A couple of times we could hear people in a neighboring room, but it did not disturb us. Overall, very satisfied.

8.8

What an excellent location and value! Rooms were exactly what we were looking for... a bit of Roman charm, reasonably priced, great location, and clean/spacious rooms.

9.9

very nice hotel. Very central location, very close of coliseum and all antique rome. 15mn to Plaza spana, trevi, pantheon. Very quite. Good breakfast on the roof of the hotel (with sun). I strongly recommand this hotel. We spent a very nice big weekend.

Our room at hotel Apollo had a surprisingly beautiful bathroom. We wanted to have a view of the Colosseum, but I would be surprise if there was such a thing at hotel Apollo since it is located sideways from this magnificent monument. It is however possible to see it as the pictures show, if you stick your head way out of the window and turn it to your left. The staff was very knowledgeable and mulitlingual however one suggested to go to a restaurant called Petrucci, it sounded like they had some business together, but we wouldn't recommend it to anyone. The food wasn't fresh, the meat cuts were bad and the ambiance was terrible. We had an overall nice and comfortable experience at Apollo and it had some luxuries of a 4 star hotel. It is very well located and we would most probably go back if we wanted to see more of Rome.

Treated very well. Would stay there again.

9.5

The Hotel Apollo was exceptionally clean and well-maintained. It was such a pleasant experience as we had just come from a not-so-pleasant dirty hotel in Pisa. Although the room was small, it was very nice, quiet, and comfortable. The Hotel Apollo which is just down the street from the coloseum is in a great location for seeing all the main sights in Rome. The breakfast was also exceptional and included cappuccino, pastries, cheese, ham, cereal, breads, etc. Unfortunately, we were unable to enjoy it on the open roof because it was raining during the early morning. I would highly recommend this hotel.

9.7

We had the top floor suite that can sleep up to 5 comfortably so for our family of 4 we hads lots of space. The air conditioning was a welcome relief from the 35 C heat of Rome and the balcony overlooking the colosseum was an added bonus. The owners/management was very friendly but the best part about this property was its location...very close to the forum, colloseo and affordable cafes near the Cavour metro station and Isola Tiberina

8.0

Gentilezza e cortesia contraddistinguono il personale

9.3

tres bon emplacement, tout peut se faire à pied, personnel tres agreable, le petit plus c'est la terrasse pour le petit dejeuner!

8.3

We just stayed for 1 night at the hotel and couldn't stay for breakfast as we had to take the plane early but it was nice and quite and very close to the foro and quirinale.

9.2

El hotel está muy bien situado. Relativamente cerca tanto de la Roma antígua como de la Roma barroca. Vía dei Serpenti es una calle muy tranquila, que dispone de varios restaurantes y de algunas tiendas de alimentación. Cuenta también con otro tipo de comercios, entre ellos, un establecimiento de internet muy útil y no caro. Por la noche, el barrio, tiene una animada vida nocturna. El personal del hotel es muy atento y familiar. Los desayunos son excelentes y abundantes. La limpieza es buena. Se cambian diariamente todas las toallas del baño. La habitación dispone de teléfono,TV, nevera, secador de pelo, en perfecto funcionamiento. Nuestra estancia allí, durante 16 días, fue muy agradable y volveríamos sin dudarlo. Mª Carmen Otero (Spain)

9.5

The hotel was fantastic - the staff very friendly, the breakfasts were great, rooms were very well presented and clean, the location was brilliant, and it was excellent value for money. The only minor complaint was that the air conditioning is turned off in the hotel between 1am and 4am - not ideal in a Roman summer.

8.4

Very nice small hotel in excellent area. Close to Cavour metro station - a big plus. Helpful friendly staff, very pleasant roof garden for breakfast. All in all a good choice and would return and will recommend it to others.

9.9

This hotel is great. Small and personal. For travelling Australians, the only missing features were a kettle for tea and an electric iron and board. Otherwise everything else was all we needed. Location is about midway between the Trevi Fountain and the Colliseum.

6.3

Accueil, conseil et gentillesse des patrons irréprochable!!! Petit déjeuner pauvre en choix et qualité malgré une salle et terasse fort sympathique. Belle salle de bain, trés fonctionnelle malgré quelques soucis dans la constance de temperature de l'eau. Un hotel sympa et surtout trés bien situé mais à éviter avec des enfants en bas age (0-3ans) faute d'aménagement adéquate.

8.1

It is a good hotel to stay in Rome. It is near Termini Station and near the Coliseum.

10

It was our first experience of Rome and I can say that the stay in Apollo Hotel contributed to our excellent oppinion and great short break! The hotel is warm and cosy, well furbished with spacy rooms, comfy beds, very friendly staff and excellent breakfast! Next stay in Rome will be based in Apollo again, why change a great thing?

8.2

I would certainly recommend the Apollo for anybody making a trip to Rome. Its location within walking distance of many of the main attractions in the city makes it an excellent base. The hotel is small but surprisingly quiet,bearing in mind its location and although the rooms aren`t huge they are adequate in terms of size and very clean and comfortable.

7.8

Muy recomendable para visitar Roma. Está muy cerca de todos los sitios principales y no se tarda más de 10 minutos andando a la zona del Coliseo/Foros, pero tampoco más de 15 minutos hasta la Fontana de Trevi, por ejemplo. Es bastante silencioso y muy limpio. Lástima que el Internet vía WIFI no sea gratuito. El desayuno, sin ser Continental,es más que suficiente para considerarlo completo (no ponen huevos, ni baicon ni salchichas) y el capuccino es fantástico. Además, en la misma calle puedes encontrar Trattorias y restaurantes buenos y baratos y una cafetería de primer orden. En definitiva, si volvieramos a Roma volveríamos a este Hotel. Gracias.

7.8

This hotel had a very good location. It was pretty much in the center of the city but in a very quiet area and only a 20 minute walk to/from the train station. The breakfast was great. The single room was on the small side but kept very clean. The only minor problem was the air conditioning didn't work that well but it never got so bad that it was uncomfortable.

7.6

Our room was exceptionslly small, although our friends room was a bit larger. Our room was particularly noisey in the evening, as we had to leave the window open for ventilation (many people laughing & talking as they walked by the hotel until the wee hours) and couldn't get the A/C to work. The staff told us that the A/C wasn't available because the hotel was not full. Needless to say, it was a warm, noisey evevning. The breakfast area was on their roof garden with seating both inside & out. It was charming and their cappucinos were delicious! Nice selection for breakfast.

9.0

bon emplacement. accueil charmant. chambre familiale quadruple très spacieuse, située dans l'immeuble à côté. nous y reviendrons !

6.1

Muy comodo pero considero alto el precio para lo que ofrece.

10

I've given this hotel ten out of ten for all its services. We traveled to Rome for the first time and were so impressed by this place, our room was clean and quiet, and the breakfast was superb, the best cappuccinos in Rome by far! We would definitely recommend it and go back and stay there again ourselves.

8.2

The hotel is nice, the staff are very welcoming. By thw way, the quality of breakfast is the highest among the other hotels during I stayed in Italy. And the place for breakfast is very cozy which is at the rooftop.

9.2

Great people and hotel all around.

8.9

adresse à faire passer ! accueil chaleureux, chambres pas très grandes mais agréables, petit déjeuners-buffet sur un toit terrasse fleuri.

8.5

hotel muy recomendable en todos los aspectos. Ideal para turismo y volveria sin ninguna duda.

8.8

when i come back i will like to stay at apollo hotel. Breakfast was very good.

9.8

The people at the desk were extremely nice, however did not speak much English. We were able to communicate with broken Italian and made it work. The location is awesome! The Colosseum is a few blocks away and the Colosseo and Cavour metro stops were very close. We also walked to the Trevi Fountain, Spanish Steps, and Quirinale. Great location!! We booked the suite and it was well worth the $140 euro. Very spacious with private terrace. Breakfast was very nice. Would stay here again if we make it back to Rome.

7.6

Failed to use internet service (both wi-fi and cable) on weekend. The receptioist appeared helpless and unaware about the service. Selecetion of in-room TV channels was unsufficient for international travellers (need more in languages other tham Italian)

9.2

Stayed for 4 nights. Room comfortable, better than what expected for the price. Very central, close to main attractions. Rome has a very good public transport and hotel is 5 min walk from two bus stops. Staff very friendly and available. Very good continental breakfast. Thanks for everything.

6.1

Tutto bene, tranne la grandezza della nostra camera matrimoniale (al limite della vivibilità) ed il prezzo relativamente troppo alto. Personale e ubicazione dell'hotel perfetti

9.6

We loved this hotel. We stayed in the upper level suite with a private terrace and it was definetely worth the money. The location was perfect and the staff was just great. We are looking forward to staying at the Apollo again. Internet access in the room was the only thing lacking.

8.8

We will stay here again, the next time we are in Rome!

9.7

a very nice hotel, friendly staff, located near the collosseum and termini station, the rooms are small but clean and functional, breakfast is good, overall an excellent holiday!

8.9

The Hotel was perfectly situated within the City and not too far from the Train station. There were 6 of us travelling together (in 3 rooms). Breakfast on the rooftop terrace was a beautiful start to the day. The capuccino's were excellent too. There were many great restaurants close by to the Hotel. The rooms at the front of the building (on the main road) were a bit noisier with the garbage cans being emptied at 2:00 or 3:00 a.m., however, would still not hesitate to recommend this Hotel to anyone.

8.5

If you are looking to walk to most historical sites in Rome this is a great place to stay. The Colosseum is at the end of the street and its a short walk to Trevi Fountain, Pantheon, Quattro Fontana and much more. There are a few good restaurants right down the street as well as shopping and ATM. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We would recommend this hotel to anyone headed to Rome.

7.9

It was a small, family-run hotel. The room was rather spacious, clean and quiet although the shower corner was very, very small. The breakfast at the roof top terrace was nice. Although the hotel did not encash euro travelers check, the hotel showed me a money changer at five minutes walk who encashed T/C with a reasonable three percent commission. There was a super market at a few minutes walk from the hotel. There were several bus stops along the near main street and we used bus and subway services very often.

8.8

Very comfortable and clean room. Staff very friendly and helpful. Ideally located for visiting the Coliseum and the Forum. Easy bus journey to other locations in Rome. Breakfast on roof was wonderful, especially the pastries.

9.9

It was a charming place. The owners were friendly and the room was even nicer than we expected.

9.1

Was very impressed with the room as we did not expect a suite with a large terrace. Very friendly staff.

10

This was my third visit to Rome and I wanted to be near the Forum. The Apollo was a fantastic hotel. We were a family of 7, 1 single, 1 couple, 1 couple and 17 month old and the "old folks". Massimo and his family could not have been more helpful or nicer. The hotel was lovely, well situated, the rooms were very nice and the breakfast was superb! We will always stay at the Apollo when we return to Rome. I can't imagine a better location or a warmer welcome. Massimo, we love you!!!

9.4

My stay at the Apollo Hotel in Rome was just what I wanted. Close to the Metro and walking distance to many areas, it is family run and they were happy to help with arrangements and reservations. The hotel is very conveniently located, clean, modern and quiet. The breakfast was very nice with a varied array of selections. I would recommend this to friends and would stay there again.

9.0

near the historical points of Roma

7.9

The Apollo was a good choice for a mid-priced, clean, well run hotel in Rome, where it is hard to find something decent at this price. Breakfast on the rooftop garden was good, although a bit sparse if you get there late. Room and bathroom were very clean, staff was friendly and helpful. A few complaints, but minor ones--one light was missing a bulb, towels were thin, and TV didn't work but the remote probably just needed a new battery which we didn't bother asking for as we didn't need the TV anyway. Overall, a good bargain for Rome. We walked everywhere, although it is quite a hike to Spanish Steps area. This was our third trip to Rome, just spent a few days there before heading north to Venice and Lake Como. Were glad to get away from the hustle and bustle of Rome, even though we love it!

8.1

Das Frühstück war nicht besonders, aber die Lage super. Wenn man aus dem Hotel kam, konnte man am Ende der Strasse das Kolosseum sehen. War dann aber immer noch ein Fussmarsch von 10 Minuten. Das schöne war, dass man das Ziel immer vor Augen hatte :). Eigentlich konnte man sehr viele Sehenswürdigkeiten zu Fuss erreichen und den Rest mit dem Bus Nr. 64, der bis zum Vatikan ging.

6.4

Great location. Walking distance to major attractions and metro station. Good clean rooms and nice rooftop breakfast. Only negatives - towels (very thin), would not turn on air-conditioning when asked so room very warm at night & had to open window but nosiy outside ... could not print from the pc in reception.

6.7

Exactly as expected from the info on Venere. Recently renovated. Double room at front fairly small, but adequate (there are larger)and being on a side street, very quiet for Rome. Service from the family owners efficient rather than friendly- we did not need any advice or services. Breakfast OK but rather basic for international travellers. Would stay again.

9.0

Very friendly family run hotel. Rooms small but comfortable. Good breakfasting area and menu. Lift is a real boon. Conveniently located for most attractions.

8.3

Yes, it was the first time for me at Rome, but the second time for my wife and for our oldest daughter. For all fo us, it was the first time at Apollo. We stay for 4 days.

10

On our trip to Italy, my family and I stayed in 2 different Rome hotels, and only 1 night at the Apollo. I would stay there again if I had the opportunity. The family that runs it is wonderful, the rooms were the best we had anywhere - spacious, clean, and well furnished, and the Colosseum is within easy walking distance of the hotel. Grazie! I would recommend Hotel Apollo to anyone, young or mature.

6.7

Fantastic location, can walk to Colosseum , Trevi fountain, Spanish steps and Roman forum in max half hour,the hotel caters mainly for travellers ,there are many bars, cafes and restraunts right on the doorstep.

7.9

This hotel was in an excellent location and the very local restaurants were very good. The rooms were clean and comfortable, breakfast on the roof was a good start to every day - really enjoyable stay.

7.9

Everything about the Apollo was pleasant, given that it's a budget hotel and you don't expect much as a single traveler. Public areas are close to nil, but breakfast was served in a roof garden full of jasmine. It's near the station but on a side street and there are good restaurants all around. I would use it again as a base for all sorts of activities in central Rome.

7.9

Good honest place to stay, good breakfasts, very helpful people, great location for price, quiet warm in winter. Would use this place again.

9.4

Very nice, very friendly, typical family hotel. Stayed there to feast our 25th wedding anniversary and the owner was very helpful in getting a champagne-breakfast organised. Also very well situated near city centre and/or suitable buses. Hope to get back some time.

8.7

Hotel Apollo is located right in the middle of Rome, with bus stop around the corner to get to all important places. The room was very small but with everything I needed (the bath was nearly bigger than the room itself). I got a room to the back yard, so there was no noise at all. The breakfast on the top of the roof was good. An excellent place to stay in Rome when you just want to see a lot of places and not spending much time at the hotel.

8.3

This is a family owned hotel in a great location for visiting all the sites of Rome by foot (one day we walked for six hours and saw nearly everything) or on the "Hop on hop off" bus which leaves from the Forum (at the bottom of the road). The bed and bathrooms are well appointed and, since we were located at the back, quiet. Rooms overlooking the road might be noisier. The owners were really helpful and friendly although they do not speak a lot of English. We loved the rooftop breakfast room and the breakfast buffet was fresh and plentiful. There is a great restaurant just around the corner "Tavernelle" which has a full range of Italian dishes, but specializes in seafood. We would definitely go back to the Apollo Hotel and recommend it to anyone else

7.3

really enjoyed our stay.excellent location,just down the road from the colloseum.Staff very friendly and helpful. Room spotless,towels changed every day

9.6

It was a great hotel. It is centrally located to the Colisseum and not far from the Trevi Fountain. It is a quiet street but accessible to good shopping on Via Nazionale street. We were able to walk to most of the locations. The hotel is very clean and the service is very good. It is family owned, their english is limited but they are still very helpful. We received maps, they will call reasonable taxis, and they gave us great suggestions for restaurants. They are very accomdating. I would defintely stay again. Also, the breakfast on the rooftop was a nice addition. I would highly recommend the hotel

9.2

Hotel Apollo was great! The staff was very friendly, most of them spoke English, they were very helpful with info about buses, taxis, attractions, etc. There is a room offering internet access. Breakfast was good - lots of fruit, cereal, rolls, juices, cold cuts, cheeses, American coffee (they will happily make capacino or espresso). No bacon/eggs but we're not in the USA! Our room was fine, with Tv, safe, refrig. The maids made it up daily. Bathroom was huge - small shower but par for Europe. Location was ideal - you can see the Colesseum from the hotel (maybe 6 blocks away). It's an easy stroll to Trevi, a little farther to Spanish Steps, Parthenon, Piazza Narvona, etc. Easy bus connection to the Vatican. Several restaurants within 1-2 blocks - also great gelato store. The price was as advertised which was very reasonable for Rome. We would definitely stay here again.

8.8

The hotel staff was very friendly and helpful. The location is excellent,very close to the colosseum, forum and a bus line close-by to take you to the vatican and other locations. Restaurants were a block or two away with goood prices and good food. I definately would recommend this hotel to others.

7.9

My husband and I stayed at Hotel Apollo for three nights and enjoyed our stay very much. Our room was small, but clean and quiet. The staff really made you feel at home and the breakfast on the roof terrace was excellent.

8.9

This was our first time to Rome with a 4 night stay at the Apollo. We really enjoyed our stay. The staff was very friendly and helped with our questions in every way. We thoroughly enjoyed the breakfast and the wonderful capaccinos every morning! The location was very handy and very close to the sights. We appreciate the assistance with sedan service for our return flight home. I would highly recommend the hotel and hopefully we will be back soon! Thank you!!

9.4

I found this hotel to be just as it was pictured in the review. Rooms spacious, bathroom quite large, hot shower. Breakfast was good, with warm pastries and rolls, cereals, yogurt, and an assortment of juices. Enjoyed our breakfast on the terrace. Wish the terrace was open later in the evening for drinks.

9.4

We stayed in a double room on the first three nights of our honeymoon. The staff was warm and friendly. The breakfast offerings were fresh and more than adequate. And the hotel is close to everything we wanted to see. We would definitely stay here again!

9.8

Great hotel in an excellent location. We walked to many of the site in Rome from the hotel. Reception staff wonderful, very helpful. Breakfast on the roof terrace was great.

7.2

The only negative aspect was the rubbish collection early in the morning. Would ask for a room in the rear next time we used hotel.

8.0

Very Clean. Very Helpful. Someone who could speak English was always available. Very close to many of the major tourist sites in Rome. Nice eating area with good food for breakfast.

7.7

The location was very good. Breakfast excellent. The shower door in our first room did not fit so floor got rather wet! The shower in the room we had on our return to Rome was very small but adequate if one was not a large person which neither my husban or I are! Staff were very helpful. Overall the hotel was good considering the price and quality of Rome Hotels.

9.3

This was our first trip to Rome, and the Apollo made it a GREAT experience. We had a big room with a large bathroom and bed facing the street (not loud) We would recommend the Apollo to any person(s) visiting Rome. Good room rates (for Rome)

9.6

A small hotel with immaculate accommodations. Our room was small, but it was beautifully appointed and had a large bathroom. Lovely rooftop garden, with an adequate Continental breakfast.

8.5

A very nice hotel, in a terrific location, with a helpful staff. The rooms are not luxurious, but perfectly fine, and breakfast on the terrace was very nice. We would definitely stay there again.

9.1

We went on a 5 day family holiday. still not enough time to see everything so we will be back.Hotel in very central location so will stay there again.

8.7

Our overall experience at the Apollo was very positive. Staff were very helpful, and ready to answer any questions we had. They offered help to arrange tours, and they contacted a driver with a large van to drive us to the airport, at a reasonable price. We had a suite for 4 people, which was pretty large and comfortable, and had its own terrace. The air conditioner worked perfectly. Another couple that travelled with us had the suite for 2, which was also nice but their bathroom was very small. Breakfast was Ok, the setting in the terrace was nice, and staff were welcoming and courteous.

10

Very welcoming, after a train ride from Napoli we were quickly shown our room and began exploring Rome again. An easy walk to the Trevi fountain, Il Rotondo, and Piazza Navona and a view of the Colosseo from our room as well! On our same street were two restaurants with good food and wine and reasonable prices. Would stay here again without any hesitation. The hotel staff was excellent and the room was large and clean with a big bathroom. Grazie Apollo!

8.8

We were on a birthday trip to Rome, for the first time. Location of hotel is very good being close to the old parts and sights. Surroundings have good service with shops, restaurants and piazzas. Bus traffic also good with a small electric bus going to central locations. The bed was too narrow and soft for two persons. We bothed "rolled" into the middle because it was so soft. We are a couple from Finland and are used to a breakfast with cold cuts, dark bread and something fresh. The cuts were OK but bread was white rolls every morning. No vegetables were served and all the cereals were with added sugar.

6.8

Cerca del Coliseo y de la estacion de Termini 10 minutos andando. Habitacion doble muy pequeña pero limpia. Desayuno bueno. Bastantes restaurante cerca del hotel No me importaria volver al mismo hotel

10

Perfect location, excellent breakfast, friendly and most helpful staff. Will be going back next year. You won't find a nicer place to stay if you want a true Italian experience.

10

This is a great location and excellant hotel. We did not met other people as such, but saw people at the breakfast room. I was travelling with my husband, we stayed in two different rooms on different floors as we were there for 1 night each time, two weeks apart. We arrived early and were able to go to our room. The hotel is family run and small and very friendly, those we dealt with spoke English.

9.0

Very, very well located---close in to the historical attractions of Rome and the train station yet still in a very nice, safe area---neighborhood street w local shops--very nice family run hotel--very professional with wonderful coffee and breakfast---great value for the money in an expensive city

8.1

My wife & I stayed recently (Sept. 2007) at the Apollo Hotel, Rome which we found to be excellent and in a great location - Colesseum at the end of the road (could see from our bedroom window). Good restaurants within walking distance. Would highly recommend.

9.7

Great family run hotel in quiet section of Rome. It is a small hotel, but very clean and has everything a traveler needs. The roof-top cafe was charming and everyone was very accommodating. Would definitely stay there again.

8.2

Slightly apprehensive after reading one review which stated it was the worst hotel they had stayed in but we found it to be great. A brilliant location for exploring Rome on foot, which is what we did for 6 days, some nice restaurants nearby, easy access to the sights of Rome, the shopping area and the central station. The hotel was comfortable and quiet but if you are used to a big chain then the facilities here won't compete. Breakfast on the roof terrace was very nice with a good choice on offer. Looking out of the hotel window to the end of the street and the Colosseum was what we wanted and what we got.

7.7

Tout près de la fontaine de TREVI et du colysée et du métro, cet hotel est une excellente halte qui garantit calme et proximité des sites touristiques. Le petit déjeuner est copieux et impeccable.Une excellente adresse à conseiller pour une visite de 3 jours à Rome.

9.8

Unfortunately our stay was too brief - just overnight before catching our flight back home the next morning. But the staff were extremely helpful - immediately taking care of a taxi reservation for us to get to the airport the following morning. The location was terrific - so close to many sights, and with several good restaurants nearby. I would certainly recommend the Apollo to friends, and stay here again myself whenever I am in Rome. The value was excellent. I think the Apollo is perfect for the savvy traveler who wants a clean, quiet hotel in a great location and doesn't need to be in a big-name chain property.

8.6

Great location. Fully refurbed inside. Great value for money.

8.6

This was a great place to stay in Rome.Location was great.Close to all major sites.all within walking distance,even the vatican.The hotel's breakfast was very nice,specially the cappucino and the fresh carrot juice.Staff was nice and helpful.Specially Alessandro, who was always there with helpful suggestions for restaurants,how to get to places(even circled on maps).Also good to know specially for family with children that there are 2 types of pharmacy in italy. The one with red cross is for emergency as well and has a doctor available.What we did not like though was (1)While the room was clean,the sheets were only changed twice during our 5 nights stay,the day we got there on monday and on thursday.I did ask for fresh sheets on day 3 but was told to wait until the next day.Should have gone to Alessandro.(2)The biggest put off was we felt the owner was being pushy about the taxi.His price was higher.We booked with Alessandro for cheaper and when we told him he said that Alessandro did not know anything. He was not pleased. I will definitely recommend this hotel.Just try to book your own taxi so that you are not stuck on the day you leave.

10

We would reat the Apollo a 10+. It's a great location. Close to the Coliseum. In fact you can walk anywhere except maybe the Vatican and you can take the bus there. The rooms are beautiful, clean, new, comfortable and the air conditioning works. The owners are wonderful people. Most of the staff speaks fluent English and Max makes a great Cappicino. The breakfast which is more than adequate is served in a charming rooftop dining area. We would highly recommend it and if we ever return to Rome would definitely stay there again. There are also great restaurants with varied menus and prices close by. Please feel free to e-mail us if you have questions about your visit to Rome. (aconstin@tampabay.rr.com)

I looked for several days for the perfect hotel at the right price for a special family holiday. I chose the Apollo partly due to the excellent ratings and feedback from guests, which we found to be very beneficial and true. The Apollo did not dissappoint and we will return there when we visit Rome in the future. The hotel is so well located and as the weather was extremely hot it was great to pop back in the midddle of the day. The air conditioning worked perfectly and the staff were very helpful and spoke English. On arrival we took the train to Termini and walked the 15 minutes to the hotel no problem. Due to an early morning return flight the hotel booked a taxi for us to the airport 50 Euros which was much appreciated. A memorable trip for all the right reasons.

9.9

We really enjoyed our stay at the Apollo and could not have asked for a better start to our trip. All the staff, especially Alex, was helpful and friendly. It was all you could want from a 3-star hotel. I was also very happy to be able to see the Colissieum from our window, the hotel was in an ideal location between the Colissuem and Trevi Fountain.

9.4

Our first visit to Rome, the Hotel was perfectly located for access to all the major sites. Nice restaurants nearby, friendly staff. I've stayed in much worse 4 star hotels than this. Lovely room, perfect breakfast, and helpful staff. Some didn't speak brilliant English, but that adds to the trip for me. Couldn't have been better.

9.2

me encantó el hotel.muy limpio y muy bien situado. te atienden bien y puedes pasarte hasta tarde viendo la fontana di trevi porque está a sólo 10 minutos andando. y si vas al vaticano en 10 minutos o 15 en un autobús que coges casi al lado. está estupendo, me gustó todo en este hotel desde luego que volvería.Y desde la habitación se veía a lo lejos el Colisseum. Espectacular para ser de tres estrellas.

9.1

The room we stayed in were very nice and clean, nothing to complain about. The hotel has a great location, near Colosseum and near Piazza Venezia. We´re going to recommend this hotel to anyone who asks. The service was wonderful, nice people who spoke good english. Breakfast on the roof was lovely, and the cappuchino one of the best we´ve ever tasted.

8.5

Very near by major sites and yet still on a quiet street. About a 10 minute walk from the train station and from the Colisseum. I would stay there again.

9.4

WOW - what a great hotel with an awesome location! Just minutes from the Coloseum, and within walking distance to all of Rome. We arrived before noon, and were promptly shown our room - even though we were unable to let them know that we would be there early. They were very accomodating in every way - finding restaurants, making reservations for us, and arranging our car to the airport to name a few. The breakfast was wonderful, and the rooftop terrace was lovely. We hope to travel to Rome again, and will definitely be staying at the Apollo!

7.4

Hotel Apollo was a great option for anyone looking to explore Rome. You can see the Colloseum from the street and is easily accessible from the train station via cab. The rooms were clean and the staff was helpful, though not completely fluent in English. If you are bothered by noice at night be sure to request a room away from the street. I would definitely return to Hotel Apollo on my next trip to Rome.

This room was very small. The bathroom was small and the shower was so small, if you dropped the soap you couldn't pick it up. Location was great but overpriced.

8.3

A welcoming family run hotel on a quiet street in a nice neighbourhood. Really close to Rome's historic centre and within walking distance of all the other sites. Also handy for access to the train station but far enough away to avoid the seediness of the area around Termini. The room was clean and tastefully decorated and had very good air conditioning. Breakfast was of a high standard and was served on the small open air terrace.
