Roma Resort Colosseum

This apartment block is right beside entrance/exit of the manzoni metro station and only two stops on red line from termini station in the center of Rome. Also only a 12/15 min walk to the Colosseum. A spacious apartment consisting of a double bedroom and a double sofa bed in the kitchen/ dining area. Outside, there is a good variety of restaurants and small mini marts within a 5 min walk.

The property is clean and well positioned right by “Manzoni” metro station which can lead you directly to the Vatican (Ottaviano metro station) and across the road from a Bus stop from which you can take the 51 bus which takes you directly to the Colloseum, Fontana di Trevi and close to the Pantheon. The Colloseum is also a 15 min walk away. We also had plenty of space.

Like a lot of the other reviews said the location is only 4 stops away from centre which was less than two euros for a 100 minute ticket. The room had three beds which was more than expected (2 normal and 1 sofa bed). We only stopped for a night but if we were staying longer we would have made use of the fridge and plates\glasses and cutlery. The venue didn't provide food so we had breakfast at the Best Western across the road, they do a nice buffet breakfast with loads of choice. The café on the corner was nice if you just want a drink and snacks. The receptionist was helpful and friendly, especially as it was very busy that day (the hotel was fully booked and she was on her own). The property has a very small old school lift that can accommodate three people max so you may need to make multiple trips if you are in a big group. It added to the charm. The property is not wheelchair friendly. Several steps from the entrance to the lift which is raised from the street level. they may have a ramp but I would ask before booking. The room itself was really large having three rooms and two bathrooms, located on the top floor overlooking the metro. It was really bright and airy. You will get some city noise because it is on a main road and Italians do seem to like using the car horns ;o) Everyone slept well so this was not a problem. Check out is easy, you can just leave your key cards in the room to save going back to reception.

Location was wonderful, 5 steps to Manzoni metro station (be careful about timing when metro is closing, of course you have bus option at late night). Even though the hotel personnel were only available after 09.00 am, especially Elena was so helpful to make everything work perfectly (airport transfers, very late check in after midnight, colosseum skip the line tickets ...everything we asked for).
