The staff was super friendly and helpful. The room was small but the bed was super comfortable. Walls were thin and you could hear some noise from other rooms and the street but it wasn't bad. Convenient & safe location with wifi & mini fridge, walking distance to many nice restaurants, shops, & Colosseum. Unfortunately the only negative was there was no way to lock the door from the inside--keypad only so a slight safety issue. I was there for 6 nights and housekeeping never cleaned my room once though they opened the door daily, without knocking or annoucing themselves half of the times; I even asked for towels and for them to at least take the trash mid-week but I don't think they understood me and they went to a different room. But all in all I very much enjoyed my stay.

Incredible location. Not far from the Colosseum or the Trevi Fountain. Cavour metro stop is at the end of the road & Termini is about a 15 minute walk. I was nervous after some reviews & never should’ve been. Room couldn’t have been more perfect. Such a lovely little property & staff couldn’t have been more welcoming. On my next stop in Rome, thus is where I’ll be staying, without a doubt.

Perfect location. Felt very safe. Walked at night. Three or four blocks to the Colosseum. About three blocks to Termini. There’s a little market next-door and pizza and gelato all walking distance. You have to have a code just to get to the lobby. The only thing is there was not a chain lock on the door in the hotel room itself. Just a code. Overall, great experience. Would recommend.

The staff were friendly and helpful. The room was in good condition, comfortable bed and pillows. I am giving it 3 stars because on my second night there, there was a foul/awful smell from the toilet/ bathroom drainage. It was so bad, I couldn’t sleep. I spoke to the receptionist about it and the next day and they said they’d fix it. I didn’t smell it the next night but it wasn’t a pleasant experience and since there was no one at reception, I didn’t call to ask for a room change.

I can’t say enough good things about this hotel. Although the rooms are on the smaller side, they were incredibly clean and perfect for a city-style stay. The location is unbeatable — very close and walkable to major attractions like the Colosseum and Trevi Fountain. The surrounding area is full of charming shops and restaurants, and it felt extremely safe and well-lit, even at night.

Check-in was quick and easy. One thing to note: there’s a city tax of six euros per person, per night that must be paid in cash, so be sure to bring euros with you, as they don’t accept credit cards for this.

Overall, it was a fantastic stay — clean, secure, and in an amazing location. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Rome!

Location: Really good, can’t fault the location being 15 minutes walk to the Colosseum and from there it’s walkable to the centre. The main station for metro was around 10 minutes walk and easy to navigate. It was not even a minute walk to the street with lots to eat, drink and shop. Super nice area to stay in if you don’t want to be too crowded and was very chill.
Room: The one we had was small which was no issue as it was just us 2 and has everything you need.
There is a key pad entry to the building and room (need to just tap a few times to wake the key pad, the staff kindly told me as I thought it was not working).
Room was cleaned everyday and had no issues there at all.
Rooftop was not open food wise as it looked like there would be a place to eat but it was open to sit and chill up there which was really nice to see the city from above.
Staff: No faults here, super welcoming, friendly, and helpful they would answer any questions you have.
Would consider staying here again :)

We recently stayed at Hotel Canova in Rome’s Cavour area during our November 2024 trip, and it was a pleasant surprise. While Marriott hotels are typically our go-to, the steep prices for accommodations in Rome led us to explore alternative options, and we couldn’t be happier with our choice.
Hotel Canova is a clean and quiet hotel, located within easy walking distance of Roma Termini station. It’s perfect for travelers looking for a simple, no-frills place to stay. The rooms are small and compact but offer everything you need for a comfortable night’s rest. Despite the modest amenities, the hotel is well-maintained, providing a peaceful and tidy environment.
If you’re seeking luxury, this isn’t the place, but for those who value cleanliness, convenience, and quiet, Hotel Canova is an excellent choice. It offered us a great base for exploring Rome without breaking the bank.
Highly recommend for budget-conscious travelers who appreciate practicality and a good location!

Conveniently located near many eateries, the main train station, two major subway lines and bus stops.

It's a quaint property, with a comfortable bed, good lighting and power. They also have a rooftop/outdoor space to sit. The breakfast room was not available while we visited since it was under renovation.

However, the room was quite small. There was barely space to unpack two suitcases.

The shower was extremely tight - About 2ft x 2ft with a lower than standard showerhead, which made it really uncomfortable for my husband who is 6ft 2 and needed to crouch in a very small space. There was no caddy or rack to place any of your toiletries in the shower so you either had to hold on to it, or leave it on the floor, which made for very awkward maneuvering in a tight space.

The safe and the heated towel rods weren't working either. Although to be fair, we didn't follow up to see if they could be fixed.

We spent 3 nights there, and spent most of our time outside, so we managed alright. But I wouldn't stay here again.

This hotel was the perfect location for us. We were able to walk wherever we wanted to go and always felt safe. If it was a bit of a distance, an Uber was fairly easy to get (unless the Metro was on strike, that is). We loved that we were able to walk to most places that we wanted to visit, especially the Colosseum.
Hotel staff were very helpful and friendly and a what’s app message was sent to us, detailing how to access our room since we arrived late at night.
However, our bathroom had an odd smell (as some of Rome does), which was not pleasant. This didn’t dampen our trip, as who spends too much time in their rooms when in Rome?! Also, if you’re staying here, travel light, as the elevator is quite small.
All in all, we had an amazing time in Rome, thanks to the staff and location of Hotel Canova.

Great hotel and well situated. Convenient for the central station and, with the Colosseum just a 10 minute walk away, a great base for sightseeing. Even though by day it doesn't look it, the local area is full of restaurants and bars and there is a 'supermarket' next door.
Good sized well equipped rooms and even though the hotel was having some renovation work done while I was there, everywhere was still clean and fresh.
The only minus point I have is that the lift is quite small and very slow so for anyone with mobility problems, that may be an issue.

The bed was very comfortable and thankfully the sheets were very clean. The hotel is locate in a central spot in Rome - both the Coliseum and Trevi foundation are 20 min walking. The room could use some attention - scratch marks all over the walls, and as mentioned in a few previous reviews, has a very distinct musty smell. The room is small and the bathroom is extremely tiny (you have to shut the door to get to the shower which is located behind the door), so ok for a smaller solo traveler, but not sure how a couple would fare in this space.

These hotels are older buildings mixed in with residential areas, so expect the rooms to be small, not what we're normally used to in the USA.
This one was easy walking distance to the termini station, in a quiet neighborhood, had A/C and Wi-Fi in each room, and was close to a pharmacy, a grocery store (pick up snacks and water), as well as decent restaurants. This was also about 15 minutes walk to the Colesseum.

Quaint hotel in ideal location

The hotel has wonderful character from the reception area to rooftop breakfast area to the tiny lift (yes it's very small!). This is a small hotel and is simply run but for me ticks all the boxes for a short break in Rome.
Our room was on the 3rd floor and I could not fault it. Yes there's not a lot of space but this was my 4th time in Rome and I've never had a spacious room in any hotel I've stayed in. Considering how much time was spent in the room that's not an issue for me. The bathroom was very clean and the shower was smaller than I'm used to but was sufficiently manageable. The staff were so friendly and helpful which was nice too. We had breakfast included and we wee happy with what we got. The location of Hotel Canova is perfect for getting anywhere in Rome and has some great restaurants within 10 mins walk in any direction. Found the restaurants in the area of the hotel cheaper than the ones nearer the main attractions and the food was excellent in each one. I will be recommending this hotel to friends and will be a hotel I would come back to next time I'm visiting Rome.
