Hotel Celio

I would recommend this hotel if you want to be walking distance from the Colloseum. Also, you get great privacy because you get your own suite (with a terrace if you request it and if it’s available). It had lovely decor and the staff was super friendly! The only con about this hotel was that you have to leave your key with the front desk each time you leave the hotel (we did this all across Italy) and need to arrange a time to get back to your hotel if it’s going to be late at night (only had to do this at this hotel). We got locked out of our hotel one night. Thankfully a security guard down the street was very helpful and called our hotel to let us back in. Although, it was like 2am, but can you blame us for wanting to be out late while being on vacation...If you don’t want a curfew, it’s probably a good idea not to stay here, but if you don’t mind and want a more authentic Italian experience, then stay here. Nonetheless, we had a good experience. The owner was beyond hospitable and even made us a cappuccino before the complimentary breakfast was available on our first morning there.

Beautiful hotel, very detailed decor, fabric walls, mosaic floors, ornate trim, and yet modern bathroom. We loved the roof terrace to end the day. The Coliseum is visible and many eateries very close to the hotel. This place was a great value for what we got.

Lovely hotel with mosaic tile floors throughout, good service and great location close to the Colosseum and Forum

This resort was great! Location was perfect. We were given a room on top floor off the terrace. Lovely terrace, had to walk up 63 steps, but was worth it! Breakfast was good. Very cozy room, beds were okay. Would stay at the Hotel Celio again if we are lucky to visit Rome again.

The front clearly was very rude! We had to leave early in the morning for a flight (430 am) and we were locked in the hotel! The front door was locked and no one was at the desk. The day desk clerk was given the information and set up a car to pick us up. I will not stay here again because of this and can not recommend it.
