    Good base for a touristy visit of Rome with friendly and helpful staff

    Front desk isn’t open 24 hours which could be a problem if you’ve got a very early check out - you have to call another hotel for them to come and help.

    Location was good for tourist activities with most walking distance or easy access (5 mins) to the metro. Friendly and helpful staff. Rooms were small but not an issue, like us, your using them as base for sightseeing and not much else.

    Brilliant location, lovely staff who were very flexible with dropping off bags etc., and quick to respond to messages. We were even treated to an upgrade because of our honeymoon! The breakfast was delicious as well, a mix of western and Italian. Thank you so much for having us.

    Wifi was very weak even in the lobby of the hotel but from the room it was literally not accessible, so i had to use my mobile internet for the entire stay. Overall i'm still happy as the location was top and the hotel was clean and comfortable.

    Cozy, beautiful hotel in the heart of Rome. Staff was very friendly, the atmosphere and interior of the hotel was really nice, looked like it was newly renovated. Easily accessible, very good neighborhood and many amnesties around. Both Trevi and Coliseum are just couple of minutes away to walk.

    Room was very dark, not enough natural light. Hallway noise can be quiet loud. I woke up to sound of the staff preparing tables for breakfast

    Location is great. It was very clean. Overall very quiet.

    Great location, gated entry so felt very secure. Staff were fantastic, room was very comfortable with 2 double beds as I was travelling with my daughter. The upgraded room was very much appreciated. The free tiramisu making class at their sister property was also a very nice experience. Would definitely return to this hotel.

    The rooms were a bit noisy which can happen in city hotels (if you are a light sleeper, don’t forget your earplugs). The tea bags in the room weren’t automatically refilled during my stay. Also, the air conditioning had to stay on which I personally don’t prefer when sleeping.

    Perfect location - central, yet peaceful, in a quiet courtyard. Most sights, the metro, and Termini station were easily reachable on foot. My single room was cozy and the bed very comfortable. Breakfast was fresh. Coffee delicious! The staff were outstanding—especially Alice who was always friendly and welcoming. The hotel also offers tours through partners; I joined a night photo walk to the Pantheon which was a true highlight.

    I had the best experience at Boutique Hotel Galatea. From start to finish the service was 5* - the staff truly went the extra mile to ensure I felt special on my birthday. They even set up balloons in my room and gave me a bottle of Prosecco which was the sweetest surprise! I also think it’s such a lovely touch that the staff refer to guests on a first name basis - truly better service than I’ve had at much more expensive ‘luxury’ hotels! Special shoutout to Jasmine on the front desk. The room itself was nicely decorated and well-equipped with great air conditioning and an extremely comfortable bed. The shower was always perfect and as someone with long hair I very much appreciated the powerful hairdryer! I can’t fault this hotel and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to anyone visiting Rome. I will certainly be returning on my next visit to the city. 10/10 all round ⭐️

    The rooms were lovely, just a little dark — not much sunlight coming in. Finding the hotel was a bit of a challenge at first (you have to go through a coded gate and figure out which building it is), but once we got there, it was totally worth it.

    The location is perfect and the hotel itself is lovely. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful , every request we had was handled quickly and efficiently. We truly enjoyed our stay. Breakfast was wonderful, and the rooms were super clean.

    Good option. But bad soundproof.

    If you are a light sleeper, this place is not for you! It seems that people do not realize that when they walk along the corridor to their room at midnight, or even at any other time, they need to wait until they reach their room, and not talk loudly in the corridor. Especially calling someone through the door... Other guests may have a rest in other rooms and we have to respect each other. The soundproofing in the hotel is 0, the doors are like paper. In the morning at 7 am, the staff starts talking to each other, preparing breakfast, rattling plates, the smell of frying scramble in the room (even though my room was the very last one in the corridor). Speaking of the breakfast. It’s not worth buying, there are a bunch of good cafes in Rome.

    The stuff was friendly and helpful. The place is clean and comfy. Great location.

    It was a bit noisy if the window was open (not because of the street noise but probably due to the sound of air conditioners reflecting in the inner yard)

    Very friendly staff, great location with amazing eating and drinking establishments in the closest proximity, fabulously comfortable bed and pillows, a rather spacious bathroom.
