The room was spotless and the maids came and cleaned it up everyday when someone left and cleaned the bathroom everyday... The breakfast was really amazing they had everything and every night they made like an appetizer thing which was as big as a meal so you didn't even have to eat out... Add events every night but I was going to show much during the day I was too tired too participate but it was the perfect hostel

To be completely honest I was a bit disappointed with my stay. The kitten area was always a mess. There wasn’t any cleaning products to wash the dishes. The dish water was broken. And the refrigerator was completely packed with unwrapped and old food. I used the kitchen twice and had to clean even before I could cook my food. We were booked for 4 days but after 3 days I decided to leave early. No one gave use new towels during the stay or cam into to clean or empty the trash cans. I felt like they could do better at maintaining and keeping it cleaner on a daily basis. I truly expected more and sadly I was disappointed.

Just an OK experience.

Just an OK experience. The various individuals at the front desk were always kind and pleasant. Most disappointing was the condition of my room. Not much worked as it should have - AC unit did not work right, TV had no power, refrigerator had no power and lights in room flickered (Might have just been a bad outlet that some of the items were plugged into). My bed was also very uncomfortable. Anytime I ran the shower there was a puddle of water one the bathroom floor. I think this was a result of the type of shower doors. Water pressure was good. The styling of the room was very outdated. The room was also not very clean (at least not to my standard). On my first of three nights I found that there was someone’s used razor and bathing loofa left in the shower. Second day - cleaners took my bar soap and did not leave a new one (thankfully I packed an extra).

All in all a good location close to the colosseum. Price was right for the condition that the room was in. I paid around $60-65 a night through hotels.com. I likely would not stay here again if there were other options.

Quiet & Convenient Location

Great location with close walking proximity to Termini train station, colosseum and other attractions. Within walking distance to hop on hop off bus stops as well, either theColloseum or the Basilica Papale di Santa Maria Maggiore stop. Room was nice, bed comfotable, bathroom decent sized, having a bathtub was a bonus for a nice soak after a long hot day of walking around Rome. The area seems quite safe at night, I walked back to the hotel by myself every night from the train station with no issues. The facility was clean and well-maintained. Breakfast was good also.

Never Again

The hotel is in a good position. That's the only positive.

Asked to pay in full upon checking in, usually pay hotels when you leave. Told that check out is 10.00am, albeit your details say 11.00am.
In room 22 curtains are falling off the track so impossible to close properly. Shower head would not stay in high position on fitment. Had to hold shower head in one hand to shower.After 9.00 it maybe took 15 minutes before any hot water came to the room.
Upon checking out was presented with invoice. I needed invoice made out with my company address but they refused to do this. I was told I should have asked for such an invoice when booking. Terrible staff attitude. This was my 3rd visit but definitely my last.

No heating. Freezing room.

The room given to me the first night was absolutely freezing. I was told there was no other. I couldn’t believe it. On pointing this out the night receptionist suggested I was better off because he had to spend the night in a much colder reception area because the main door opened all the time! Incredible! Room 103 should not be used for hotel guests. It is not connected to the rest of the hotel bedrooms. Seems like a desperate space conversion to make money. Second night was much better after I was given another room. It actually had heating. Breakfast was skimpy but the sole lady server was extremely polite. Perhaps the only kind soul in a hotel of surly men.

PRE CRUISE STAY

Check in was easy, our room on first floor was very spacious. The breakfast were very European but good. Especially the DANISHES in the morning breakfast. I could have eaten more than 4 each morning. It was an easy walk to the COLOSSEUM, 10-15 minutes. Very easy to get to many of the sites. We found a very inexpensive Restaurant less than 8 minutes away. A good meal for 9 euros. It is two short blocks away; turn right out of Hotel , continue for two blocks- La Communa- something like that- I forget actual name. The room is very clean but TV has no English stations but sometimes will have English movie. There is Free WIFI but on second day did not work. Computer in Lobby- 1 EURO per 60 minutes. There is a printer- free. We used CSE service to get to Hotel from airport- 60 Euros ( taxi fix -48 Euros). Transfer from Hotel to Port- 85Euros-for 3 or Private transfer 130 EUROS-3. Very efficient service, arrives on time( Civiteaicchia Shuttle Express). The personal in Lobby very helpful and nice. We had to leave key to room each time we left- no problem. We will be returning for one night after cruise. Looking forward to the delicious danishes the next morning. The double bed was very comfortable and our friend had a sofa bed to sleep on. The room was cleaned the next afternoon. Very good. If we return in 2020, we will definitely stay here.

The location is fantastic and overall the hotel is well-maintained (and the complementary prosecco was a nice touch), but based on my experience and one of the other reviews, I think the #0 (my room was 60, one of the other reviews I think mentions 40) rooms might have plumbing issues that result in sewage odor spilling back into the room. I thought I smelled something vaguely funky when I got back after my first day, but it was particularly pungent after I got back at the end of my second day - I imagine this was because I had made a mid-day stop during which I had closed the window that housekeeping had left open, and I also have to wonder if housekeeping leaves the window open knowing the issue. The smell problem is easily solved by opening the window and letting the bathroom fan run, but still, this isn't something a customer should have to deal with.

I was not at all happy whilst I was in this hotel

I unfortunately had a bad experience on my arrival in Rome. I was robbed of my money (euros) and my credit card, I was left with no money, and had to report to the police in terminal 3 in Leonardo Da Vinci airport. jet2 representative helped me and I eventually made my way to the hotel.
The hotel seemed satisfactory, but unfortunately my WiFi did not work in my room, and my phone and tablet had to be connected to the WiFi on reception desk. So, my information could be read by reception staff. E mails, personal messages to my partner, and as I had been subject of a robbery, this meant I was vulnerable situation and not happy about anything.
As my stay continued, I was booked in from 7th until 10th, some very strange things started happening. I had contacted a guy on reception named Max, who initially was quite friendly, but something didn't seem quite right, don't know what. It became apparent after my coming back from a Chinese meal, that there was a message from myself, stating to my partner I had a lovely meal, when I fact I wasn't even on the WiFi, so how had I sent this. I queried this point to Max on reception, to which he certainly backed off, and wasn't so friendly. I still have all the e mails sent to and from my partner, and there is a discrepancy in time.
Without putting it bluntly, it's terrible that I even have to mention this happened within the Edera hotel. I felt most uneasy, by the end of Saturday night, I did not stay, I left on Sunday to another hotel.

Great location, but needs some serious renovation!

Very nice and friendly people at the desk, and amazing position just a short walk from the Colosseum and the Forum. Ample continental breakfast choices but didn't like the juice (was pretty tasteless). Welcome gift of a small bottle of prosecco in the room (unluckily by Maschio - not a great choice taste-wise). Unluckily this hotel seriously SCREAMS for a refurbishment - broken wallpaper, rattling AC unit, half broken shower head and badly working tap knobs, unresponsive tv getting often stuck on a few channels, the breakfast room in the basement and remembers a school refectory from the 80s. Wifi better forgotten - easy to connect, but the speed wasn't enough even for a skype voice only call. Get an European or Italian sim card with some data plan if you stay here. Strong moldy smell coming from the bathroom, most probably from the wash basin pipe. Couldn't find anywhere a price list for the drinks held in the room's fridge.
Recommended for short stays due to the great location between two subway lines, and the quick walk to the main archaeological area and the church of St. Maria Maggiore. Also 10-15 mins on foot from Termini station, but I'd recommend to avoid walking the full way in the warmer months with your luggage.

Good basic hotel in good location

Hotel Edera is a clean, basic, safe hotel which from my point of view is a great base from which to explore Rome. It is in a very quiet area (great for sleeping!), but is only a 10 minute walk to the Colesseum and all other sites are within walking distance (although the Vatican may be a little too far for some – around 4.5km). For those who want to, there are also good links with local buses and the metro. The décor of the hotel is definitely old fashioned and while you have everything you need, the facilities are a little basic. A lot of people complain about the breakfast – but I thought it was quite adequate for the star rating. If you plan on spending a lot of time in the hotel, or expect a little luxury, then I suggest you look somewhere else. However if you are looking for somewhere clean, safe, relatively cheap and in a good location, then this place is ideal. I found all the staff to be lovely and had no trouble at all. As a single female traveller this can’t be understated!

Fine option for a stay if you’re on a budget. Linens and bathroom clean and front desk staff are lovely! Hotel is a bit outside the Rome historical center (8 minutes walking to Colosseum, 25+ minutes walk to everything else).

There was a note in the room regarding that the hotel is not responsible for items left outside the safe (standard) but no safe was provided in the room. I’m not sure if this was a room specific issue (4th floor, room 50) or with the hotel overall, but there was a terrible smell right outside the room’s doorway, possibly coming from the plumbing (the smell dissipated from the interior of the room as long as I had the bathroom door shut).

There are no key cards, only physical keys that staff ask you to leave at the desk before leaving the hotel. The desk was always manned and I never had an issue requesting my key upon return. There is no lock, deadbolt or burglar bar on room doors though, so if you’re planning on waiting out the morning crowds, expect to have housekeeping key into your room even if you’ve called out to them that it is occupied!

For a 3 star hotel this place was in tatters...

I initially checked up on some of the review for Hotel Edera and ignored most of them... silly.

This is part of a Hotel chain, they must have the money to do up this hotel. I initially ignored the reivews about the state of it as I assumed it was a small sole Hotel, not part of a chain, until I entered and looked at the back of a book they had left in my room.

It's not what I expected for a 3 star hotel and I would probably not go back and stay there again to be honest.

Pleasant Hotel Close to the Colosseum

I really enjoyed my stay at Hotel Edera. It is located a few minutes walk away from the Colosseum and Forum, on a quiet street close to restaurants and cafes. The staff were very pleasant, my room was comfortable and quiet, and the continental breakfast was tasty and sufficient. I was also able to leave my bag near reception before check-in, and before I checked out. With regards my room, I had a single room which was large and comfortable, with a large bathroom. There was a mini bar available, which I didn't make use of, but was stocked with alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks. The air conditioner worked well, and there was a hairdryer available had I needed it. The continental breakfast allowed a choice of bread and rolls, cold meats and cheese, boiled eggs, tomatoes, cereal, pastries and tarts, milk, juice, and coffee or tea. It was tasty and more than enough to get the day started. Also, it started at 07H00, which allowed me to get going early. Taxis were easy to book at reception, and Uber is also available in Rome. Overall, I really enjoyed my stay and would definitely stay at Hotel Edera again if I visited Rome on another occasion.

On the negative, we had no running water for one day at all, were unable to wash or flush the toilet and no apology or compensation of any sort. The breakfast lacked a healthy option and the bread was dry on the first morning and even drier the second! There's no tea/ coffee facilities in the room and no bar in the public seating area.

Fab location in City Centre, close to Colosseum

We flew into Fiumicino Airport from Heathrow and took the Terravision Bus (pre-booked online) into Termini Station which was so quick and easy. On arrival it was extremely busy around the station, so decided to get a taxi to The Edera Hotel (€8), we actually walked back on our return journey. We were cheerily greeted just after 1pm and given the keys to room 5 which looked out over the courtyard. We were told that check out was actually 10.00am at this point. Room 5 was huge, clean but dated and had two single beds pushed together to make a double. There was a TV (only Italian speaking channels) air-conditioning, hit & miss Wifi and a mini- bar. The bathroom had a hairdryer and a few complementary toiletries - it was clean, with spotless soft white towels, but the bath was unusually small with mixer shower taps (no screen) and a huge split in the bottom of the bath. Breakfast was cold buffet Continental style with good strong coffee. The main plus factor was the closeness to the Colosseum - less than 5 minutes to walk, the Hop-on, Hop-off bus stop and a short walk to the nearest bars & eateries. (recommended: Kathmandu Fast Food, Il Padellaccio, Brancaccio which are all nearby). Our 3 night stay here was ok for a short break in this beautiful city.

Nice hotel in Rome

This hotel was nice, had an elevator, located close to Colosseum and close to the metro. Very good location. Nice breakfast, clean, and nice. The beds were hard but this is a common thing in many places. Enjoyed my stay there. And Air Conditioned which is very important in Rome!

Quirky Hotel with lots of charm.

Nice & peaceful hotel a little tatty around the edges but very nice location. only 9 min walk from the Colosseum. the room was spotless and the breakfast substantial. At only €64 a night you can not complain.

Great Hotel

It was great to come back to a very comfortable room and helpful reception staff during our week's stay in Rome. The service at breakfast was excellent with friendly staff and the daily room cleaning and bed
making could not be faulted.

Comfortable hotel in excellent location

Very good breakfast, clean rooms, good bathrooms with hot water always available. Staff very helpful and kind :) Nicely presented basic facilities and good value for money.
Would stay here again. The location is superb - short walk to colosseum through a park - and easy access to public transport. Recommended.

Excellent base for a trip to Rome.

The hotel was in an excellent location close to the coliseum with plenary of bars and restaurants nearby. Certainly can't complain about the price, very reasonable, however this is I guess why the hotel is looking very tired and in need of a lick of paint and basic maintenance undertaking. Having said that it was extremely clean, the courtyard was a great chill out zone for a few glasses of prosecco after a full day sightseeing before going out to sample the many lovely restaurants close by. All in all a lovely trip to Rome and for what we paid, a good, clean, centrally located hotel - can't ask for much more really.

Convenient and clean hotel

The hotel was easy to find. It is an old fashion hotel. When you depart the hotel for the day you have to leave your room key at the desk.

Not a great experience.

While on the whole it was OK, I am fairly unhappy with this place. The main issue was the shower, which had no hot water for two of my three days. When I reported this, twice, the response was to shrug and to say they couldn't do anything about it. No attempt to get anyone to look at it, just 'well, what can I do?'. I resisted the urge to yell that what they could do was their job!

Breakfast was concerning. In between guests at breakfast tables. the cleanup involved the breakfast woman just wiping crumbs off the table with her hand, which isn't exactly very hygienic. There wasn't even a sign of a damp cloth, let alone any cleaning sprays.

Then there came to security. The cleaning staff opened up all the doors and went into the rooms one by one, leaving the other rooms insecure and out of sight for significant amounts of time.

Not to mention that bag storage on leaving. I left my bag there on my final day, a service which almost every hotel offers. This one however had no ticket to make sure you only took the right bags, they weren't stored on a secure area, they were just left to the side of the checkin desk, and I know for absolute certainty that when I came to collect mine, they didn't check it was mine, they didn't check I only took my own, The desk guy was busy on the phone and didn't even look up as I walked in, took a bag and left.

Also, when you pay, KEEP YOUR RECEIPT. They tried to double-charge me a tax payment of 12EUR, saying I hadn't paid it. I had.

Lovely Stay

Lovely stay at Edera - super close to the Colosseum (10 min walk) - a really nice park close by. Many restaurants between hotel and Colosseum. Close to Metro stop, Termini, many other sites. Lovely breakfast and staff was wonderful. Lovely outdoor patio for guest use. Only downside - no shower, just tub with hand held shower head. Wifi not always reliable - probably problem with server not hotel. Definitely would recommend this hotel or stay again on our next trip to Roma.

Disorganised hotel

Will not stay here again. Disorganised check in. Was told they gave my room away when I arrived cuz the hotel was overbooked. Transferred me to a different hotel in a less convenient location. Then was given a room with broken Air conditioning. When asked to swap room, staff was hesitant. Overall, service quality from the staff was mixed. One staff was friendly while others were cold and uninformative. Asked for sightseeing recommendation, the reception staff responded 'I don't know what you want to do' period. Breakfast was ok. Typical continental style.

Very good locations, close to some attractions

Nice location, 20 minutes walk to train and bus station , lots of restaurant around, 5 mins. Walk to the coliseum , you can also walk to see Spanish steps if you really want to walk. Breakfast is not that great but it's ok same cold cut every morning , I would say since that the same people eat breakfast they should change the menu everyday because if I will stay there for 2 weeks , I don't want to eat the same breakfast everyday. The morning duty staff at the front desk was nice, was not bad, I only need it for few days anyway . I would definitely come back to this hotel if the same price .
