Los encargados de esta propiedad muy pocos profesionales con el servicio previo, tuvimos que cancelar la reserva y fui amenazada que debía pagar el 100% de la reserva. Aparte de todos los insultos que tengo en mi chat. Y sobre todo el encargado general del hotel me confirmo que ya había iniciado un proceso legal por cancelar esta reserva fuera de fecha y que es un delito federal fueron sus palabras, con todas las evidencias en mi chat.

Every morning there was construction above us waking us up.
Also, contact the property the day before you arrive. They do not answer the phone while you’re trying to figure out how to get into the building.

Hotel that dont let you in!

I went to the hotel buzzed, called and now one answer unable to access property waited several hours. Even asked cafe next door to help. When I complained on hotels.com I got nasty messages from hotel. Avoid this place at all costs! I had to book a new hotel.

STAY AWAY!!! By far the worst hotel experience I’ve ever had: front desk is not staffed after 7pm, so you have to contact them through WhatsApp chat to get into the building, and that’s only when they get around to replying to you (took over an hour to get from the front door to my room). Then early in the morning I’m woken up by someone banging on a door for over an hour. And on my way out; the obvious junky that was finally at the front desk started begging me for money (wanted 7 euros).

But yes; if you hang your head out the window, you can see a corner of the Colosseum.

Not recommended

It is an hotel inside a residential building just on one floor. There is no reception so it is even difficult to identify from the outside. You have limited check-in hours and breakfast is served (in your room on a tray with no choice whatsoever of what you would like) at 7.30. If you're there for business likely at 7.30 you're already busy. Location is fine if you walk, if you have a car is a disaster as there is hardly any parking. I would not use it again

I loved staying there mear steps from Colosseum and some good restaurants. I loved being able to walk out the hotel and just wonder you never knew what relic or piece of history you’d find. The only down sides to staying here it’s still 8/10 is the ac turning on and off all day and night was driving me nuts. Thankfully I brought a portable fan to keep air moving and help me stay cool. You can’t change the ac at, that’s a bummer. The mattress was very firm I actually ended up with some bruising and soreness from sleeping on it, it always felt like I was sleeping on a rock. Lastly, the lack of English speaking shows and or channels. Only found one channel that played English shows but the same episode that played in morning was repeated at night and was only a couple shows otherwise everything was in Italian. I know it’s is Italy, but I don’t speak the language so watching Italian shows I was finding very hard to understand them. Other than that amazing stay, staff very friendly and helpful, cleanliness was amazing fresh towels and Necessities any time needed.

Could be better, but it was okay.

The “hotel” is a Bed and Breakfast. Located in a building with other B&Bs. Our room was located right next to the reception desk. The A/C was only able to turn on the fan but no cooling available because of the season (according to the receptionist). The floor was filthy the first night. The second day we spoke to the receptionist/Cleaning person/breakfast server about cleaning the floor and she did a decent job cleaning the room. But they need an actual cleaning person, not have one person do it all. Bathroom shower was moldy and the bathroom doors were damaged. Breakfast was decent. However, You really can’t beat the price or the location. The proprietor just needs to do a better job with cleanliness and A/C availability. We were pretty disappointed with the lack of cool air, but really enjoyed the location. The room itself is pretty roomy too.

Perfect for a long weekend with the other half

Upon booking i saw that this hotel had average reviews but I still decided to book for the location and it was probably the best decision i made.

Location Perfect! Depending on the room, look outside the window with the Colosseum in your face. Come out,walk around the building and you are literally outside the Colosseum, less than a 25 second walk.

Upon Arrival the hotel is located on the 2nd floor of a building with only 5 hotel rooms - hit number 12 to buzz yourself up...initially when walking up you do think twice about the booking as the corridors are narrow and not well lit.

Check-in:- Greeted by amazing Staff, English speaking and checked in within 5 mins...Shown around the room.

Room:- 2 single beds pushed together to make a King...however i was unaware of this until the last day - so very comfortable! My biggest issue is a clean bathroom and i was not disappointed with a great shower, clean toilet, sink and perfect lighting. You get a sink in the room with cooking facilities such an electric hob and cutlery. Perfect sized TV with 1 or 2 English channels (5 and 26 i think) along with English music channels. Air-con in the room, with a massive air-con unit near the window and very powerful. Perfect lighting in the room. Come in and out the hotel when you wish. Emergency number in the room with WIFI password...not too strong but usable.Room cleaned if needed, new towels if needed, Iron upon request. Breakfast GREAT!

Check in for your return flight @reception

We had a lovely stay in the appartment, but I do agree with others that it is difficult to find. The only issues we had were one morning there was no hot water and then on our last morning we had no hot water and no electricity. The staff were extremely polite and helpful but obviously this was not their fault and they did their best.

Comfortable and convenient

Our stay at Maison Imperiale was very pleasant. We stayed in the large suite. If you open the window and lean out, you can see the Colliseum just down the street. An excellent location! The room was spacious and comfortable. We were pleased with our stay. Breakfast was somewhat minimal with toast and jam and store bought sweet things in wrappers, but that was OK. If you want a better breakfast, visit the cafes on the same block. Let me mention a few problems not because they were serious, but because they were minor and easy to fix.
This is not a hotel, it's a bed and breakfast. It is located in a building on the second floor (1st in Europe) in a suite of rooms. This should be made explicit in the listing. Our cab from Roma Termini got us there very quickly, but we were looking for a sign, something to let us know we were in the right place. It took a long time to discover the name on one of a dozen doorbell ID signs at the front door. Customers should be explicitly told how to get here and how to get in when you do. Another issue, common in rented rooms, is the absence of a place to put your soap in the shower stall. The shower arm was loose and had to be tied to the rod to stay up and the beautiful new tiles were, I guess, too pretty to drill a hole for a soap dish. Finally, even on a hot summer night, with AC running, it's nice to have a blanket in addition to the sheet. There was none in the room.

Scam Hotel - Do not book here

Clearly a scam hotel. When I checked in, was told that there was a power failure. Was moved to another hotel and was \"market\" as a better location. Power failure is unavoidable but the re-located hotel was in a bad location and 10 mins away from the nearest train station. The room wasn't up to standard and no internet connection. I booked Maison because of location and Coliseum view. Maison staff claimed that they sent me an email which I didn't receive. Secondly Maison didn't even tell me what was the name of the re-located hotel. I had to ask the taxi driver who barely spoke English.

I googled Maison and found similar stories about waterpipe burst and power failure. Guests were located to bad location and bad hotel rooms. If Maison is having so much water and power issues, they should shut down and not operate as a hotel. Maison enticed you with their Coliseum view but send you to a 3rd rate hotel with their water and power issues. I hope hotels.com will blacklist and remove Maison from the hotel listing as this is clearly a scam hotel; protect your customers the travelers from hotels like Maison. My last leg of my holiday was ruined by Maison.

Avoid this hotel

Do not book this hotel as when we arrived there we were told that there was a problem with the water and electricity and that we would have to stay in accommodation 10 minutes away (which did not offer a coliseum view in a deluxe suite). Instead it was in a rundown part of town with staff who didn't seem to care. The breakfast offered was very sub standard and the only view we had was of a wall and dirty washing from neighbouring flats.

Was not a hotel , but an apartment converted.

The apartment was clean. Impossible to find as no signage & an apartment. A kettle was provided with cups & a few sachets. Breakfast was a cold arrangement. The first lady that attended us was fairly abrupt & unhelpful with no advice or help. However the gentleman the following day offered lots of help & advice, which was a Shame as our last day.

Excellent location

Lovely rooms with a great view and 2 minute walk to colosseum. Perfect for a short stay, with breakfast served to your room. Staff are helpful. Ideal for couples bars and restaurants close by and great location for walking around Rome and it's sights.

Room has small kitchen area if you want to cook, fridge and kettle for use too. Beds are comfortable and nice bathroom and they are cleaned daily.

Can be a little bit noisey late evenings outside but stops at about 12. We had no faults staying here and would go back again

Could not have asked for more!

Our holiday didn't get off to a great start, however we were greeted by a gentleman so helpful, kind and friendly. We instantly felt more relaxed and at ease.
We encountered a few problems (wrong travel plug brought :() yet nothing was too much trouble and was fixed within minutes.
We needed to alter our breakfast times on different days which was no trouble at all and all of the main spots we wanted to visit were shown to us on a handy map. Our first experience in Rome was an amazing one thanks to this person and the hotel we stayed in.
The hotel was clean, tidy, so much bigger than we expected, extremely good value for money and the service was second to none.
We would definitely recommend this hotel and visit again!

Great B&B close to colloseum

Clean, great location, very friendly staff, modern style room design, good solid wifi (many european hotels i have found have spotty wifi).

Note, this is more of a bed and breakfast than a hotel....although you arent staying in someones home, this is a large reconfigured condo unit with 4 rooms that are setup like hotel rooms on inside (own washrooms and showers, safe, etc).

Cidades com forte característica histórica e apelo turístico é muito comum construções mais antigas serem tombadas pelo patrimônio histórico. Neste cenário, em várias edificações são preservadas a \"casca\" e completamente reformadas e modernizadas internamente, atribuindo-lhes a função hoteleira. Este é o caso: entendida e aceita esta característica, não há o que reclamar!

Sauberes Zimmer in super Lage

Wir waren 5 Tage in Rom. Die Lage ist super zentral da die nächste Metro ungefähr 50 m entfernt ist.
Die Zimmer waren sehr sauber und modern eingerichtet.
Zum Frühstück gab es Toast und Croissant mit verschiedenen belägen.
Vielleicht könnte man noch etwas Obst mit drauflegen aber das ist nicht relevant für meine Bewertung sondern nur ein Vorschlag. Das einzige was mich gestört hat war das super harte Bett. Hab tierische Rückenschmerzen bekommen was aber auch daran liegt dass ich sonst eine recht weiche Matratze habe.
Final möchte ich sagen :

Ein super Zimmer mit sehr nettem Personal was einem hilfreich zur Seite steht. Würden jederzeit wiederkommen

Room was very clean and the location is super. Very helpful staff.

We had booked two rooms, but when we arrived to the hotel we heard, that they have a problem with a leakage from the main building pipe and it has affected another of our rooms and thus our friends had to accommodate to other place. The hostel/room they had organized in place of was nice and clean, but unfortunately it was quite far and it was not possible to get breakfast in it, although we had paid of it. However, Maison imperial compensated this in city taxes.

Overbooking

Escolhemos este hotel devido a localização, perto do metro e Coliseu!
No momento do check in fomos informado que a tubulação do quarto estava com problema e sugeriram outro hotel para nos hospedarmos, disseram também que enviaram um e-mail um dia antes informando nossa agente de viagens que é super de confiança, mas isso não aconteceu!
Nos sugeriram outro hotel que nos atendeu bem, mas sabemos q acontecimentos repentinos que forçam a mudança de hotel é sinônimo de overbooking. Que é uma pratica desrespeitosa com nos passageiros.
Não voltaria para este hotel, pois ele não cumpriu com o que deveria.
