Hotel Medici, Rome

We booked this hotel on line and were a little apprehensive but we needn't have been. We arrived at the Termini Station and within 5 minutes the taxi had us at the Medici Hotel. You could walk to the station in 15 mins. All buses trains metro and hop on off buses leave from here. It is possible to walk to Spanish Steps and Trevia Fountain in about 1/2 hour. Better to get hop on bus to plan your visits. Nice clean well furnished room lovely spotless bathroom which appreared to be new. Clean towels everyday with soap and shampoo. Hairdryer, mini bar reasonable 1.50 euro for water 3 for beer and wine and cans 2.50 fruit juice about 3 euros. Very good breakfast consisting of all hot drinks three choices of fruit juices. 3/4 choice of cereal, tinned fruit salad, yogurts, rolls, pastries, Jam, Honey, butter cheese triangles biscuits. Very clean dining room in basement. Nice lounge with TV also TV in bedroom with CNN News Channel in English. Staff very welcoming helpfull and polite. Lift. A little noise on a morning from outside but we were on lst floor at front. Very warm room and comfy beds but only one pillow I like two! Walls a little thin but we had quiet neighbours could be a problem if you didn,t have. Room Service available. Restaurants in area enough with two opposite Henry Cow good and the one next door also good. Our Favourite was La Lampada 2 streets away Via Quintino Sella recommended and booked by reception for us on our first night being Sunday most restaurants in area were closed in the evening. We would definitely stay there again. Well done Hotel Medici. S & J Dilley Brighouse Yorkshire England visited February 2007.
