After reading reviews on several different web sites about this hotel, I was apprehensive about staying at this hotel (which was recommended by my travel agent). My group of 25 stayed there 2 weeks ago. What you need to remember is that you are staying in European hotels - not a U.S. chain of hotels. I've been to Europe in the summer, and air ...

Will not reccomend to a dog at best one star
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 12/19/06
This hotel is not to be recommended. I stayed for three nites, already paid and not allowed to cancel. The staff was rude and uninterested in helping tourist or making sure that problems were addressed. Shower was a semi-cricled area of about 15 inches where most normal persons can not fit without having the broken and dirty shower curtain stick ...
What I liked best about this Hotel was it's location. It's within walking distance of the Termini (train station) and there, you can hop on trains going to other parts of Italy and beyond, as well as the local Metro and buses you can take to get around Rome. The rooms are small, but clean and the service is friendly. The neighborhood gets a ...

Be Careful !
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 12/03/05
This was a last minute change of hotels while on tour...went to place valuables in safety deposit box..it was locked and manager "could not open it"..despite thinking I had hidden things well, a bracelet was stolen...other people on tour lost camera...BEWARE! Staff seemed overwhelmed and did not communicate well.Room very small ..Bathroom generally ok, Great location, however.

Better than nothing.
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 02/27/05
The very, very small, even for European standards, room was nice. It had new furnature and fresh paint. We had two rooms, for some reason the bathrooms always smelled. Also, the front desk told us the best way to the airport was via a taxi, which we paid 55 euros for. When we got to the airport the taxi driver told us the standard fare was 35. Nice.

"When in Rome..."
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 02/24/05
My daughter (15) and I stayed at the Champagne Palace in Rome in Feb 2005. We are Americans and we were very concerned about all the negative reviews we read about this place, so we went with VERY low expectations. The place was great. We have traveled to Europe in the past and have learned that the rooms there are typically much smaller then US ...

Go In Winter!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 02/11/05
We visited in Feb 2005 and found the hotel rooms very compact, but well kept. The bathrooms were very modern. The staff were pleasant and helpful.
Our only complaint was the heat in our room. We couldn't work out why..it was February!Discovered the heat came from hot water pipes. The air con doesn't work in the rooms. We changed our room and it was less oppresive. Don't go in the summer!
