Avis sur Colonna Palace Hotel

Cet hôtel est idéalement situé à Rome. Il est confortable, le personnel est accueillant et, cerise sur le gâteau, le petit déjeuner est servi sur une terrasse au dernier étage de l'hôtel ce qui offre un panorama sur la ville assez unique.

L'hôtel n'a pas vraiment de caractère. Le hall, salon et bar sont très sombres. Les chambres sont simples. Il faut éviter les chambres en dessous de la salle du petit déjeuner car dès 6 heures du matin vous entendez les aller et venues du personnel... Les + : La terrasse pour le petit déjeuner avec son point de vue. L'emplacement de l'hôtel très pratique.

After initial disappointment with smelly room, the hotel proved ok, comfortable and relaxed. Rooms were to sleep in, and as such were fine. Best features were, Location which was brilliant, with all major attractions within walking distance (eg pantheon, 5 mins, Vatican, 20 mins, etc), and the roof terrace, which has great views from the centre and is lovely to be on during sunset or evening times, and lovely morning breakfast views.

Very nice friendly hotel with coffee donut breakfast over looking Rome. Convenient to the sites within walking distance. Small room for singles with single bed.

Beds were hard and air would not go below 26 degrees

great experience! Loved the roof top garden. Had drinks and watched the sun set over Rome.

We were unsure about this holiday as we chose the secret saver deal. When we found out which one it was we couldn't be more happier. Breakfast was included which was very nice, though no restaurant however plenty of places to eat. Staff were extremely helpful throughout our week stay.

Colonna Palace is located centrally within walking distance of many sights, but as it's located across Parliament, taxis cannot stop at any entrance and you will have to walk (although I would try to avoid taxis in Rome, or at least be aware of the different scams!) This being Roma, political demonstrations seem to be a daily occurrence, so the area around the hotel/the square it shares with the Parliament building is constantly blockaded - you'll have to explain to the police why you need to enter. On the plus side (few and far between at this hotel), got to see a marching band performance in front of Parliament one morning. Check in was fine, and the lady was nice enough. Room was of a decent size, but saying it was dated would be an understatement (actually the entire hotel has probably seen better days). Everything was showing wear and tear, and the safe wasn't working. Fortunately, the bathroom was updated relatively speaking, and clean. Lots of creaking and banging at night, not to mention sirens and terrible sound-proofing, so don't expect restful sleep. Checkout was terribly inefficient, as most front desk staff insist on playing the classic Italian game of "let's see how long I can pretend I can't see or hear the guest standing in front of me". When they do deem you worthy of acknowledgment, their attitude is dismissive at best. Not a pleasant stay overall, and would not recommend.

Stuff at the front desk wasn't freindly. The breakfast was very basic . When we were about to leave the hotel we were told that there was an additional city tax of 3 euro per guest per night that we weren't aware of.
