Worth weighing

5 to weigh
  • Check-in ends at 23:59 — The property only accepts arrivals between 11:00 and 23:59, so a very late-night check-in isn't possible.
  • Early checkout window — Check-out is limited to 07:00–10:00, so late-morning departures won't work.
  • No pets allowed — Pets are not permitted at this property.
  • Some rooms are compact — One guest described a room as simple and on the small side, though clean, so space levels may vary.
  • Rating sits below the Rome average — The catalogue guest rating of 8.0 is slightly below the area average of 8.7, so it's a solid rather than top-scoring Rome stay.

“The room was spotless and generously sized, with high ceilings. Supermarkets and restaurants were close by, the staff were attentive, and housekeeping came in daily. The fully equipped kitchen and self-service breakfast were a nice extra, and the cot was provided at no charge.”

8Verified guest

“The staff were helpful and the location was excellent. Breakfast had no fixed schedule, so you could eat whenever suited you. Great restaurants and a tram stop were nearby, and Termini was only a short distance away. Altogether an excellent stay – I would happily return.”

8Verified guest

“Pino, Lorenzo's father, was kind and always ready to help whenever we needed anything. The property and room were clean and mostly quiet. It was conveniently close to most of Rome's main sights, and taxi rides to the attractions averaged around €10.”

8Verified guest

“I had a genuinely enjoyable stay; the property and its facilities were delightful.”

8Verified guest

“A very comfortable place to stay inside Rome's city walls, about a five-minute walk from Manzoni Metro Station, which connects you to the rest of the city. Pino was extremely helpful with recommendations and directions. I've already recommended Arco Romano Rooms to my colleagues in Vancouver, Canada.”

8Verified guest

“The cleanliness was excellent. Towels were changed, the room was cleaned, and the bed was made daily, which was better than some hotels. Guests could use the fully equipped kitchen for coffee, tea, toast, sweet croissants, milk, and juice without limits, though cooking wasn't permitted. A cot was set up at no extra cost.”
