We loved the hotel and think it's the best hotel we have stayed in Italy. It's a very nice property located in a very nice area of Rome. It's a 15 min or so walk to the Colosm so that's quite nice. The staff are very helpful, they even helped us found a cell phone we lost in the cab. And we like the room decorations too. Breakfast is very nice as well. The only drawback is that it took us a good effort to find the hotel from the Metro satation, not many people in the neighbourhood seem to know the address or the hotel. A more clear direction to the hotel would be helpful.

5.8

Hotel is too inconvenient from metro stop / city centre. Not a good choice unless you have your own transport. Hotel was ok, but rooms were much smaller than expected. Jaccuzzi didn't work. Breakfast was disappointing. In terms of expectations generated from reading reviews on website, I was disappointed overall.

9.4

We have stayed here before and loved it. This group of hotels in the Aventine district is a score! A very peaceful and serene oasis in Rome and you are only a 15-20 minute walk from the historic centre and close to Trastevere & the colosseum as well.

8.7

No comment... excellent place for a stay in Roma except the distance to public transportation...

9.4

The villa, rooms and surroundings are spectacular. Rooms are spacious and well equipped. On the downside, the staff is far from welcoming and warm. The location itself is a bit removed from the city centre, so you will need to take public transport or a taxi, but this is well worth the calm and the beauty of the place.

8.5

Highly recommended. Good value for money. It is great to return to the quiet, peaceful and green Aventino area after a day spent in the buzzling, loud and hectic city of rome. The neighborhood is dominated by nice villas with gardens and does not have much traffic noise. Nevertheless it is not at all a remote area and if you do not mind walking, you can easily reach the center. Hotel rooms are cozy and nicely decorated, though not very spacious. Nice bathrooms, and one of the best breakfasts we ever had in Italian hotels.

8.9

The email availability was restricted to one common desktop in the main lobby. Buying access time was somewhat expensive. The grounds and general location were gorgeous. The small balcony with table and chairs for two was quite nice. The general location is residential and provides a very quiet night, even with the windows open.

9.0

Some confusion about which room we were supposed to have on arrival, but was fine after that.

8.5

Quiet. Breakfast is good. Good size room.

8.6

Pretty little hotel in a quiet area, which was especially welcome after a day of sightseeing in busy Rome. Rooms were quaint & charming. Service was good. We especially appreciated Justin's friendly assistance.

7.8

Nice atmosphere, convenient location.

8.1

Hotel had great location, quiet neighborhood. 10 minute walk to forum and colisuem. Would not be easy to find if taking Metro. Not a lot of choices for restaurants in the area, but you'll likely be out anyway during meal times, so not a problem. Rooms are very nice, prices do get low: 200 euros.

9.8

The first time we've been to rome,we couldn't have chosen a better place to stay.the staff are very competant and the rooms are excellent,there's only a ten minute walk to most of the sights can not wait to go back.

9.5

We were there in Aug 08. This was the best hotel overall we stayed at in a trip to France and Italy. The location was just outside the core of the city but the transit made it easy to access everything. Buy a rome museum pass - it's worth it for the unlimited transit. The hotel room itself was beautiful with a balcony and spacious room. The breakfast was the best we had and the service was extremely good. Our only beef was with reception staff. They helped just enough and provided advice that was very conventional. For example, I wanted to go to the Traverste area for dinner but instead of making a recommendation they would say you should go to another area all together. They were very good though with helping us with the buses. Some tips: Go on the Angel Tours Vatican tour and download FREE Rick Steves audio tours of the Pantheon, Collesuem, Forum and Sistine Chapel. To get to the hotel, go the Pyramid stop and walk up the hill (we found this the easiest). We also caught buses from that side.

9.7

Great hotel, very quite residential area, but a bit of a walk to find a restaurant. They say a 15 min walk to the city but we would say 40-45mins. So need to use a taxi or bus, also arriving back in the eavening if walking a little off the main track no one about! Thats the only down side to the hotel.

9.3

Das Hotel liegt in einem sehr exklusiven Villenviertel auf dem Aventin, morgens serviert der Buttler Cappuchino und Cornetti mit Vanillecreme im Paradiesgarten. Es ist nicht weit zu den U-Bahn-Stationen Circo Massimo und Ostiense, das heißt, man hat eine gute Anbindung an die meisten Sehenswürdigkeiten, die man nicht ohnehin zu Fuß erreichen kann. Es gibt auch zahlreiche Busse zu Füßen des Aventin, die ohne Umsteigen in die verschiedensten Richtungen fahren. Hierfür ist ein Verkehrslinienplan, den es an allen Kiosken zu kaufen gibt, eine große Hilfe. Auf dem Aventin gibt es keine Bar und nur ein Restaurant, unterhalb aber Richtung Testaccio ein Wohnviertel mit guten Lokalen, das Vorspeisenbuffett im "Bucatino" ist traumhaft. Oder man bummelt abends zu Fuß über die Tiberinsel nach Trastevere. Die Zimmer sind im romantisch-römischen Stil eingerichtet, die Matratzen rückenfreundlich, Klimaanlage und Zimmertresor stehen zur Verfügung.

9.2

This feed-back tells about Sant Pio Hotel, which belongs to the same group than Aventino Hotel. We were changed once there, without any previous advertisement. However the change was good, because we got a room in a better hotel (*** versus ***L).

9.5

Although our reservation was at the Aventino, we were given a room in the Sant Pio (a sister property). We highly recommend this hotel group. If you are in good health for walking, this location is excellent because it is residential and quiet. (One must take a bus or cab to the busier tourist sections). The restaurant in this hotel is open for dinner every night except for Saturday and we highly recommend it. Although there were some families with children staying there, I would recommend this to those traveling without children.

8.0

Aventino was a good experience. The people at reception were generally welcoming and helpful. The breakfast was good. The surrounding neighborhood is peaceful and pretty, yet close enough to major attractions such as the Colloseum. I recommend it!

9.0

We stayed at Hotel Aventino for 3 nights. It is an oasis, and yet only 5-10 minutes walk from the Palatine Hill and 15-20 minutes from the Colosseum. The staff are friendly, the neighbourhood extremely quiet. The rooms are good-sized and the bathroom a pleasant surprise. The bedrooms are pretty noise-proof. There were one or two small niggles - the jacuzzi effect in the bath didn't work, the coffee at breakfast was tepid, but I would most certainly recommend the Aventino. If I ever return to Rome I would definitely stay there.

9.1

Our main holiday was in Tuscany, but as we (2 mature couples) were flying to Rome and hiring a car we decided to book a hotel for 2 nights in Rome to see the sights before continuing our journey. I used Venere.com to view hotels in Rome. The choice was made on the area, the hotel photos and the good reviews from previous guests. The hotel was above our expectations and we enjoyed our stay. We would certainly recommend this hotel. If we stayed longer we felt that more storage space in the room would have been useful such as a small chest of drawers. The staff were very helpful and an asset to the hotel.

6.4

The Jacuzi did'nt work and when we asked the reception they told us that they would call the responsible and call us back in 5 minutes.We are still waiting for the call... There was a smell of garbage at the reception and the room smelled like being closed for relly long time.

9.6

Bless this hotel - Aventino hill is such a charming location, just on the cusp of the hustle of the centre. A quiet haven with calm and efficient staff. (We stayed three nights, so found out breakfast was highly variable - certainly not up to the quality of the overall hotel experience). However I would certainly reccommend this hotel to anyone. A lovely stay, thank-you.

9.0

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Aventino. After a day of the hustle and bustle of Rome, the courtyard at the hotel was a blissful oasis. The staff were friendly and accomodating without being overwhelming. We would definitely stay here again!

8.5

Stayed 2 nights here are were very happy with this hotel. Was in a nice quiet area but in walking distance of a lot of the main sites. We would stay here again.

9.4

The quiet location was perfect and close enough to the historical parts of Rome to allow easy walking access. Staff were helpful and friendly. Rooms very pleasant. Eating breakfast in the garden a great way to get started for the day, although the space was too limited should you wish to spend any time in the hotel simply resting.

8.3

Nice and cosy hotel, good breakfast.Peaceful place. Only bed was a little hard. I gladly recommend! Special thanks for the helpful staff in reception and big umbrellas for rainy days! Viihtyisä pieni hotelli, pieni kävelymatka julkisiin kulkuvälineisiin.Vehreä rauhallinen ympäristö. Hyvä aamiainen, käynti puutarhaan ruokahuoneesta. Muuten hiljaista ja rauhallista, mutta naapurin vahtikoira kommentoi ohikulkijoita. Poreamme oli ihana väsyneille jaloille! Vuode oli kova, muuten kaikki kiitettävää. Mukava henkilökunta ja siistiä.

9.2

Very nice hotel, set in its own grounds, in a quiet residential area away from the noise and traffic, but within 15 minutes gentle stroll from Circo Massimo and the entrance gate to the Forum. Possibly difficult to find as the hotel is discreetly advertised by just a brass plaque on the wall and is hidden away behind automated entrance gates. (Taxi driver said there is another hotel with a similar name, but this is the best one!) Comfortable, clean and tastefully decorated rooms with outlook over the hotel garden. Excellent breakfast with self service choice of yoghurt, fresh fruit, boiled eggs, ham, cheeses, salami, cereals, breads, toast, jams, cake, fruit tart and warm croissants and pastries, with tea coffee and fruit juice. Helpful and friendly staff who spoke excellent English, but willingly tolerated practice of hesitating Italian! The guest book is full of complimentary comments from guests from all over the world. We will stay there again when we visit Rome. Mi piace molto!

9.6

I had a lovely stay in this hotel for three nights. The room was of very good size, very nice styled, very clean and very comfortable to stay in. A huge bed, a bubblebath and a good breakfastbuffet;what could one wish more. The surroundings are very nice to walk through and its about a 15 min. walk to the centre. Defenitively a four star-quality for a very good prize. Thanks to everyone in the hotel, who made my stay so pleasant.

9.6

This well-decorated, clean, lovely hotel made our stay in Rome even better. It was in a quiet, upscale neighborhood, not too far from the Forum area. We loved everything about it and highly recommend it to everyone! The people welcomed us warmly, the breakfasts were delicious, the rooms were clean and comfortable. What more can we say??

9.6

Review is for Sant Angelo Hotel in same area, which we got an upgrade to. The location is peaceful, quiet neighborhood; 10 minute walk from Metro. Professional service, good resturaunt

10

AMAZING Room!! Would Definitely Stay AGAIN! Have Told/Bragged To Everyone About The FANTASTIC Room, And GREAT Service! Lovely Marble Jacuzzi (Roman!) Tub!!!

8.9

As a single traveler I stayed 4 nights in the hotel. If you are looking for a very quiet area to stay in Rome this is the place to stay about ten minutes walk to the rear of circus maximus (30 minutes walk from termini but the metro is just a few minutes and then about 10 minutes walk) I had a very happy stay in the hotel with no complaints on service etc, I took a double room which was very clean and worth the extra cost, I would have no hesitation in returning to this hotel

9.7

Hotel is difficult to find given the map, but once you get there, all is forgiven. A truly outstanding hotel in all respects. The restaurant at the sister hotel is an easy walk and equally distinguished in the quality of its food and service.

7.4

We had the top room in the hotel reached via the outside terrace. It was very quiet and private, which we liked. It was a little small but you can't have everything. Only real fault is a lack of a bar or real social area in the hotel, so after a day out there isn't anywhere but the room to relax. It is a walk to most sites, but we were quite happy to do that as the hotel is a little out of the way but in a quiet area. If you don't like walking, don't go there.

7.4

Hotel charmant, situation un peu en retrait mais possible de faire beaucoup de visites à pied. Les alentours sont très beaux, quartier élégant, arborisé. Service moyen, nous avions tout d'abord une chambre type bungalow dans une sorte de garage que nous avons refusée, nous avons ensuite eu une grande chambre aménagée pour handicapés avec l'assurance que nous en aurions une autre dès le lendemain mais nous y sommes finalement restées 3 jours. L'hotel ne m'a pas aidée non plus à réclamer mon bagage bloqué à l'aéroport pendant 2 jours arrivé finalement le jour de notre départ.

8.7

L'albergo è in una zona molto tranquilla e anche ben servita dai mezzi pubblici, ideale per un soggiorno di qualche giorno. Servizio efficiente, camere curate e confortevoli (unico neo le pareti sono sottili e se i vicini sono rumorosi possono dare fastidio).Da evitare il ristorante dell'Hotel gemello S.Anselmo assolutamente improponibile come qualità del cibo (e anche caro).

10

The most wonderful place in Rome to stay!

9.8

We are surprised. A fine, quiet hotel on one of the best hills in Rome. Near by the highlight of Rome, you can visit the town by feet. But absolutly calm. An oase in the City.

9.4

very nice hotel!employees are very competent. I will return.

9.8

A lovely hotel. I think we were the youngest guests there-40yrs-...SO close to everything. Easy walk to Roman Ruins. Easy bus #3 to Vatican City. Comfortable bed, very, very quiet room and neighborhood. Excellent breakfast.

8.9

Wir waren als Paar für ein 4-tägigen Aufenthalt in Rom, es war mein zweites Mal in den Aventino-Hotels usn auch dieses Mal war ich von der Lage der Hotels und vom Service des Personals angenehm überrascht. Wir haben unser Gepäck leider erst eineinhalb Tage später bekommen und das gesamte ConciergeTeam hat sich stundenlang und mit sagenhafter Ausdauer darum bemüht Informationen zum Verbleib desselben herauszufinden. Das war großartig - ohne wären wir aufgeschmissen gewesen. Ein herzliches Dankeschön nochmal dafür. Wir kommen sicher wieder!

9.0

In fact, I stayed in villa S. Pio, which is a sister hotel located very close to St. Aventino. I stayed during July 19~20th, 2007. I had great time in Rome, and it's partly due to this hotel. It's a lovely, jolly, and cozy hotel. The staff are very kind and professional too. If you are a first time visitor to Rome, you might feel a bit difficult to find the hotel.But once you get to know the surroundings and are accustomed to Rome city map, then you will realize that it is very close to the center and easy to find! You can have a very detailed area map at the hotel front. - I think it would be nice if they can send an electronic copy of this map to the customers who book the hotel via email. I will definitely choose this hotel when I visit Rome again. And will recommend to my family and friends. Thumbs up!

9.8

The front desk staff was extremely courteous and helpful. The breakfast waiters were also very nice and attentive. It was wonderful to come home to a quiet neighborhood each night after the hustle bustle of the crowd in the center of Rome. Only complaint is that bed was too hard and our jacuzzi part of the tub was broken. Would defintely stay there again.

9.6

Hotel Aventino was a wonderful place to stay for our three days in Rome - it was safe and secure, the rooms and surroundings were beautiful and comfortable and clean, the staff were helpful and friendly and the breakfasts were almost banquets in their range and quality of food and drinks to choose from. We had the added bonus of being able to visit the restaurant at one of the two sister hotels just round the corner and enjoyed a fabulous meal in their garden. We would recommend this hotel,to anyone who wants to travel in comfort, and be close to all the sights of Rome. It was probably the most expensive place we stayed on our trip, but it was worth it for the experience.

8.3

Not only are the rooms too small; there is not enough space for clothes. This time my room had no drawers. What a couple would do in my double room I cannot imagine! I think the hotel would appeal most to businessmen staying for afew days in Rome.

4.6

The room was very small and was not as well kept as I would have expected for 220 Euros/night. Also, I was dissappointed with the welcome at our arrival. The man seemed too busy to be bothered much. The breakfast was wonderful, the area was nice.

10

Fabulous hotel with a wonderful location for exploring Rome. No room service but that was not a negative for us.

9.9

Hotel Aventino was the perfect hotel in the ideal location. The room was clean and very quiet and big enough for me,my wife,and our adult daughter.Breakfast was excellent.The staff was very helpful friendly and reliable with their advice on busses and restaurants.They arranged for taxis and made restaurant reservations. The neighborhood was beautiful, with great views of the city from the top of the hill,while walking through a fragrant blossoming orange grove. It was an easy walk to the coloseum and the adjacent sites of ancient Rome. We wouldn't consider staying anywhere else if we went back to Rome and highly recommend Hotel Aventino to anyone.

8.8

The hotel is located in a lovely, quiet residential neighgborhood in Rome, with easy walking access to bars, restaurants, sights, etc. We loved the Aventino for its lovely grounds, European feel and very nice, though small rooms and bathrooms. We stayed there twice and had a very good experience.

9.3

It was just great returning to the this hotel, in the perfect quiet surroundings, after a day of sight seeing. One little remark perhaps, the bathroom was very small and provided few facilities to place small beauty attributes. Otherwise, it was the place of comfort and atmosphere one would look for after a heavy day. The personnel was very friendly and would go to the utmost to help. We recommend this hotel to all of our friends.

8.3

A fantastic small hotel close to the Colisseum, palatine Hill and the Fora Romana. Pleanty of hidden gems in the area (English cemetery and views of St Peter's Basillica) make this area great for a base in Rome and as a quiet retreat. If you are active then the walk to the major attractions of the centre and Vatican are easily within walking distance. Rooms and service were fantastic and the choices for breakfast are great. You feel like you're in 4-star!

5.9

The only critisism of the hotel i'd make is the crazy lady serving breakfast on Sunday morning. A request for a glass of water was met with ranting and raving about tiding up, cleaning etc, and she wouldnt leave us in peace (for those that know the classic BBC sitcom Faulty Towers, think basil faulty. i could have sworne he was in the room!). It was a shame and spoilt the experience at the hotel.

7.0

The staff were always very helpful. My only criticism was that he room that my wife and I was in was a bit 'tired'. It needed its internal deco improved. But the room was very clean and kept that way daily by staff. The range of food available at the breakfast was very good. The hotel itself is in a quiet area at the edge of the City Centre well placed for the main tourist places and the the Subway.

7.6

The breakfast is wonderful with variety of items. Dinner items are good but a bit costly if compared with similar hotels around. Business centre is lacking. Internet facility is faulty and too expensive. They still use OS Windows 2000.

6.0

I have stayed in this hotel with my husband. The rooms are well furnished, but they are EXTREMELY SMALL, not for 3 star standards. The bubble Jacuzzi bath didn't work at all! The staff at the reception didn't speak italian well,and we are italians, so they couldn't understand what we wanted.

7.9

the hotel is located in a quiet part of Roma, it is close to the metro station, to trastevere, to colosseo. there are nice restaurants in walking distance. rooms are large and warm, bathroom really large as well. breakfast was more than satisfactory. it is located in a big and nice garden. we can stay again...

6.4

The room and toilet facilities were clean and tidy. Food for breakfast was great. Location is too remote and no clear direction on how and which public transportation is the most convenient to use except taxi.

9.4

nice room/excellent location

9.8

Excellent hotel in very quiet neighborhood. We'll be coming again.

9.2

Great place. Perhaps the best aspect is the neighborhood. Quiet and beautiful, yet very near downtown Rome. Even some wonderful sights within walking distance of the hotel. And the breakfast was excellent: large and high quality, not at all your tiny "continental" breakfast. One negative:bathroom was beautiful, but a bit cramped. Interior of the building itself was lovely. And for your info, since they do not offer our category, we are a gay couple with a child.

9.9

The Aventino Hotel is in a beautiful part of Rome. The bus service is excellent and will bring you to the vatican or into the centre of Rome. There are many attractions in the vicinity that you can easily walk to. I would highly recommend this hotel and would certainly return to it again.

9.4

The hotel was what I was hoping for. Room spacious enough with ensuite bathroom (jacuzzi shower). Nice, quiet and very residential area. Private gate to the hotel. Only 10-15 min to the colosseo. Lovely restaurants around. Staff particularly helpful. Breakfast very nice, loads to choose from. Absolutely nothing to complain about! Hotel wspanialy! Pokoj przestrzenny, lazienka z jacuzzi. Okolica bardzo cicha, spokojna. Tylko 10-15 minut do coloseum! Kilka dobrych restauracji tuz za rogiem. Pracownicy bardzo przyjaznie nastawieni. Sniadanie pyszne, duzy wybor. Zadnych przeciwskazan!

9.9

when we arrived, we were told that the room we booked was undergoing renovations but that they were uopgrading us to superior accommodations - this was a very delightful surprise, especially since unknown to them this was our wedding anniversary. The ladies serving the garden restaurant provided fantastic service. I am recommending it to my friends who are planning to travel shortly.

9.1

Great, quiet neighborhood - only a short walk from the subway. Wonderful restaurant at sister hotel, we ate there 2 of 3 nights. It was very nice to come back to each night after the fast pace during the day in Rome. We would definitely stay again, and highly recommend the hotel!

8.9

We had a wonderful stay at Aventino and they were very helpful and accomodating. We would stay there again.

10

This was a beautiful hotel to stay at in Rome. the room was quite large and extremely comfortable. The staff was always helpful and the surrounding neighborhood was lovely. Quite near the metro to get around to other places and situated wonderfully close to the Forum and Colosseum. Wonderful stay overall!

8.5

Nice and quiet location Good access to sightseeing excellent breakfest. Good restorant not far in Trastevere

8.6

We wanted a hotel in Rome that was in a quiet location and the Aventino certainly is. It's a fifteen minute walk from the Colosseum and Forum. The hike up the Aventine Hill is great exercise. No restaurant- only a small breakfast room- but their sister hotel a few blocks away has a wonderful restaurant- "Il Giardino degli Arvaci". We spent a week here and everything was excellent. If you stay here don't miss the Basilica of St. Sabina- a few blocks up the hill from the hotel. The adjacent park has one of the greatest views of Rome you will find. Some restaurant choices in Rome- Alla Rampa- Piazza Mignanelli- right around the corner from the Spanish Steps- the antipasta buffet was incredible; Sabatini- Piazza Santa Maria in Trastevere- the pasta in white clam sauce was wonderful. The setting is magnificient- outdoors on a wonderful piazza opposite the church; and for a lunch break try Tre Scalini in Piazza Navona- another wonderful location right beside Bernini's Four Rivers Fountain- the "tartufo" or death by chocolate is worth the trip! One other thing- avoid the long lines at the Colloseum by buying a combo ticket at the entrance to the Palantine. Then just walk into the Colloseum without waiting. Never a line at the Palantine.

9.8

We were upgraded to the sister Hotel San Anslemo. Rooms were beautifully decorated but we were lucky to get a bigger room than our friends, with a magnificent bathroom, which had a huge sunken Roman style bath. The staff were lovely, friendly and helpful, if not a little slow at responding sometimes. Breakfast was amazing. Location was quiet and pretty. It was easy to get to the main sites. We would recommend and will definitely try and stay there again if we revisit Rome!

8.5

We were upgraded to the sister hotel San Anselmo, so the review refers to that hotel. My friends arrived at the Aventino and thought it of similar quality . Really nice stay, in a quieter area of Rome. I'll be going back.

9.8

We were moved to the Villa San Pio which is within the same Group and we found to be the most delightful hotel. The garden setting provided a wonderful retreat after a day of sightseeing in a very hot Rome. The breakfast provided was the most extensive buffet I have ever experienced in a European hotel. Staff were fabulous and I only wish I could have stayed here longer. Will definitely return.

8.0

It is a really nice and quiet hotel, very nice garden where you can have breakfast. Very near to the Coirco Massimo, in a very nice area.

6.8

Nice hotel in a quiet area, we have been there 3 nights, location is not down town, you have a metro station at 10 minutes by walk, but it's easier to have a car. Good breakfast. Wifi acces

9.9

A great hotel if you wish to get away from taffic and noise. This location allows you to get some sound rest after a busy day visiting all the great sights in Rome. The breakfast was fantastic as well as the staff! We will certainly return to Aventino on our next visit!

3.5

Die Klimaanlage war so laut, dass sie nicht zu benutzen wa! Öffnete man das Fenster, hörte man den Lärm direkt am Fenster vorbeifahrender Autos und Motorräder(in Rom ist immer Verkehr!). Ebenso hörte man alle Geräusche der Nachbarn.Das Nonplusultra aber war der kleine Bagger, der morgens um viertel nach sieben vor unserem Fenster mit seiner Arbeit begann!!! Die Freundlichkeit des Personals( besonders die junge Dame an der Tagesrezeption!) hielt sich in Grenze. Zu teuer, zu laut, absolut nicht zu empfehlen!!!

8.6

An excellent hotel, good value for money suitable for quiet adults. Situated in a pleasant quiet area near to archaeological sites, only 15 minutes walk from the Colosseum, Forum and Circus Maximus. Handy for bus routes. Good L'Insalata Ricca restaurant nearby which caters for vegetarians. Would definitely stay there again.

9.9

Excelletn choice! Close to the center, quiet, welcoming, with a very special charm. I would recommend it anytime to my friends!

10

We stayed here for 3 nights in july and would recommend this to any of our friends. Really a lovely hotel, very helpfull staff, clean and big enough room (with nice balcony). Although its a nice location, it was really quiet. Breakfast could be eaten in the backyard on the terras, which was a nice start of the day. We went by car and parking within the gate, next to the hotel was even possible and free!

9.9

Stayed 4 nites with my wife. Close to St. Sabina Church (5 min walk), Caracalla (10 min walk), Metro Circo Massimo (10 min walk), Colloseum and Palatino (15 min walk), and Trastevere (20 min walk). If visiting areas close to metro stations, way back to hotel is quite easy. But for the historical area, learn some bus lines and schedules and how to handle the tickets, otherwise you may need to walk long distances (40-50 min). Pics of the rooms are correct. Airconditioning under your control was perfect. Pricing as indicated. Very quiet area in a residential zone, feels like in country-side but it is 15 min away from the city life. Great and smiling staff. Very pleasent stay.

9.4

Lovely setting. Friendly service. Staff could make it clearer that Aventino guests may use facilities at the sister hotel nearby. Room was equiped with Internet connection instructions and wireless keyboard connected to the television, however, these did not work and hotel staff said the service was discontinued. If service will not be restored, I'd recommend removing the keyboard and login instructions.

7.5

The Aventino was the best part of our trip to Rome. I wasn't too impressed with the city itself, but the Aventino was a great place to come back to at the end of the day....or sleep in all day. The pictures posted are 100% accurate. The neighborhood is extremely quiet and the beds are quite comfortable. My mom and I stayed for 5 nights. The staff was great and more than accomodating. The breakfast buffet was good and had a variety of items(but don't expect your typical American breakfast variety). The rooms were small, which is typical for most European hotels, but beautifully decorated. The bathrooms were rather large and had this great jacuzzi shower that massages your entire body. As mentioned in other postings, there is a hill that you have to climb to get to the hotel, but its not that much of a hinderance. You can always catch a cab to the top for about $3. Its about a 15 minute walk to the historic center and a 20 minute walk from Trastevere(where all of the great restaurants are). There is a bus stop at the bottom of the hill from which you can catch a bus to anywhere in the city. The patio outside is quiet and serene, and the scenery couldn't be more beautiful. There are only 12 rooms at the hotel so there is never a crowd at breakfast or any excessive noise. It almost feels as if you are staying there alone. Rome is extremely expensive and the hotels didn't deviate from that concept. I wasn't too happy with the price that I paid (about $250 USD per night) in comparison to the rates I paid in Paris and Madrid, but after seeing what was available in the rest of the city, it's safe to say that you definitely get what you pay for! I probably won't be visiting Rome again, but if I did I would definitely stay at the Aventino.......and sleep in all day.

9.9

Friendly staff, clean rooms, nice residential location. Walking from the train station, we had some difficulty finding the hotel based on the map. The local residents were very friendly and helped us eventually locate it. Breakfast was very good, diverse selection of foods.

9.8

We loved this hotel. There were five of us in two rooms, and that worked very well. The rooms were quite nice (excellent for three star) and the service was very good also. The management was very helpful and friendly. The breakfast was tasty with alot of selection, and service was good here, too. The Aventino is within walking distance of the Collesium and Forum ares and the Trastevere area, and we even walked to the Vatican easily. I can recommend this hotel highly, and will stay there again.

10

This is a wonderful hotel. We have also stayed at the San Pio and San Anselmo in the same area, the same hotel chain. They are all excellent.

9.7

this hotel was everything the advert said clean tidy and in a quite location. The staff could not do enough for you . It made our stay in rome all the more enjoyable. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone

8.1

in una zona signorile e molto interessante dal punto di vista storico la mia valutazione sulla struttura e i suoi servizi è più che buona. Decisamente consigliato a chi ama la tranquillità o la riservatezza a pochi minuti dal centro.

10

The Aventino is a lovely little hotel, in a quiet area yet within walking distance of the main sites.

9.8

Really good breakfast!!

9.2

Quiet, very clean hotel. Front desk courteous, but service at breakfast could be friendlier. Advertised free Internet in room did not work. An excellent place to stay away from crowds but a pleasant 10-minute walk to Forum, 15-20 minute walk to Campo de Fiori/Navona/Pantheon. Would highly recommend the Aventino.

What a wonderfull palce to be ! We have been upgradet by the Hotel to the other Villa they also owe, but we saw also the Aventino Hotel. I would go there again ! The Metro "Circo Massimo" is about 12-15 Min away, that is O.K. The area is very nice. The rooms are very impressing.

Me and my wife where very pleased about the location and the appearance of this hotel! It is not in the centre of Rom, but close enough to walk there! When we have our next trip to Rom, we will join the same Hotel, again! For everybody how is not sure if he travel to Rom or not....do it....it is a wonderful City!

It was a very nice hotel in a really quite enviremont. In just 15 minutes walk you're in the centre off historic Rome. The staff was really nice and helpfull. The only thing was that we stayed in the room next to the breakfastroom and that was a little bit noisy early in the morning, but outside there is during the night no noises at all.If we will visit Rome again we would definitly stay in the same hotel!!

personale molto disponibile e cortese, albergo molto silenzioso, accogliente, un po' distante dal centro, la passeggiata è un po' lunga, ma gradevole, buona presenza di mezzi pubblici. un posto da raccomandare!

A choice that's hard to fault at the price we paid (75 euros per night). Extremely friendly and helpful staff, and not wholly inconvenient for public transport (bus: 10mins walk; metro: 15mins walk). Very peaceful location.

We love the San Anselmo Aventino because it is away from the downtown noise and intensity but close enough to walk. This visit, we followed the hotel's restaurant recommendations for the Aventino area, Il Bucatino was superb, a mystery as it is in none of the guides.

This is a charming and beautiful little hotel at the top of the Aventine right next to three wonderful churches that you could easily miss if staying in the center of Rome. Blissfully quiet and air conditioned, my stay in late July was very pleasant. The neighborhood is residential, and, of course, up a fair hill; however, if you like to be removed from the hectic bustle of the crowds, the Aventino is perfect! Only a short walk to the Circus Maximus or the Baths of Caracalla and a quick tram ride into Trastevere. The 175 bus goes right to the Corso. Very friendly staff. Very good breakfast.
