Amalia Hotel Rome

Hotel Amalia was a perfect distance from the Vatican, about 10 minute walk. Continental breakfast was just enough to get us going in the morning. Rooms were clean, but you need to bring your own shampoo and soap. For the most part the people at the hotel desk spoke English. I speak Italian so it was no problem for me to speak to the one individual who did not speak English. When we went to check out, the young man at the desk told me we needed to pay for the rooms. I indicated to him that the 3 rooms were already paid for. I gave him a copy of our confirmation. Good thing I had it with me. Nice stores in vicinity. Hotel transfers to and from airport were flawless.

The management was always friendly and very helpful. I had to make a call to the States and they facilitated it for me. They speak English quite well and were willing to do so when my Italian faltered.

After extensive research of Rome hotels, this one came out tops for value. Though not in the historic city centre; it is certainly close enough to it for this not to be a disadvantage; in fact, given the noise and pollution surrounding many of the more central hotels (not to mention the grotty accommodation), the location of this one, for me, was preferable. The metro connection close by is a huge advantage. There is also something very special about being close enough to reach St Peter's or the Vatican Museums early enough to beat the hoards of tour groups that hit from mid-morning. The hotel is literally 10 minutes walk from the Vatican. There is no restaurant in the hotel (breakfast only) but this is Rome! Good food is not in short supply elsewhere. Minor issues with torn wallpaper and limescaled shower head (surprising these are not attended to given the ease of rectification). However, overall, friendly, family run and clean. Recommended.

Close to Vatican with short walks to Great restaurants and shopping. The flavor of the city is right outside.

older hotel, well kept up. Breakfast provided but was disappointing

Great location(Vatican down street) and staff very personable when info requested. Guilded elevation quaint but small as is Euro Shower stall. Rooms comfortable. Had A/C and clean. TV staions Italian(except CNN).Continental free Breakfast. Great area for restaurants and Shops. Safe atmosphere. Would recommend.

I felt for the price and the location, it was a great deal. Especially considering I purchased it at the last minute. The rooms were small but cozy. Would recommend for location and English speaking staff if English is your native tongue.

Mix-up and misinformation given by Orbits sales clerk about the airport shuttle service. She said it was free. They charge you 47 Euros-- not cheap. The Metro subway line is one block away and for one (1) Euro you can go to the central train terminal in 12 minutes(Termini) and catch the train to Fiumicino Airport (28 mins.) for only 11 Euros. Cost of 12 Euros one way to the airport.

Beautiful room. Hotel is in town directly above a bar/market, with restaurants, ATM, and more markets steps away from entrance. Two blocks from metro, 5 blocks from St. Peter's square: it is ideally located for a Vatican City centered vacation in Rome.

I stayed here to attend the Champions League Final at Stadio Olimpico. The hotel is very near to the Stadium so I was able to walk there. Rooms were nice and clean, staff was friendly. Can't think of any negatives about my stay there. I would reccomend it.
