Des Artistes Hotel Rome

Hotel was very close to the metro so easy to get around. It had a questionable luggage storage on the ground floor which was not watched too vigilantly. Our room, on the 1st floor, was fine for one night. Except DO NOT open the closet, it smelled of rotten feet, leaving a lingering odor the entire night. It is also about a 5 minute walk to the central train station (5 blocks away), nice if traveling by train (also a bus from the airport will drop you off here) but you will need to travel to get to the tourist attractions.

this hotel is wonderful....both location and rooms staff was great....will go back again when in Rome

Location was good, and the staff was extremely helpful, room was clean, however the bed WAS SOOOO HARD, EXTRA FIRM, might as well slept on the tile floor. We woke up stiff and sore every morning.

We ended up staying in the building next door and was told that it's nicer because it's newer. Well, I didn't get to see the rooms in the "main" building (reception is on 5th floor and shares the building with some other hotels) to compare. Our room was very plain and ordinary looking so I fear how the rooms in the "main" building are. Plus side: our double room was fairly roomy and quiet. The double bed was made up of two twin beds put together and a little hard (standard). Shower was small but fine. The neighborhood is just ok....safe when we walked around although it did look a bit shady. We thought it was close to the Termini Stazione, but the hotel was several blocks farther than expected. Although our rate included breakfast, we couldn't take advantage of that because we had to check out early (6:15 am). We weren't able to get any breakfast to go because the kitchen wasn't even open. Overall, we felt the price Des Artistes charges don't match the value they deliver (it's overpriced). We felt as if we were mixed in with their hostel side.

The hotel had a great location. Only a 5min walk from the Metro. Lots of dinning close by and even a little market right around the corner. I would recomend this hotel to all of my friends.

Hotel is, as stated, just a few minutes' walk from Termini. Also close to subway stations, though those who like to walk won't have too much trouble getting around the city. The setup is a little strange, as reception and the breakfast room are in one building, and the lodging in another a little further down the street, but once you have that straight, it's not an issue. The room was very nice and clean (though it isn't as picturesque as displayed on the site), with air conditioning and a TV. They even had a wall outlet for American products to plug into! The bathroom was the best part though. Extremely clean and modern, very nice shower. My only complaint in regards to the room was the bed. It was stiff and uncomfortable. The staff were very helpful throughout our stay, giving us directions and helping arrange for a taxi our final morning. The only annoying thing was housekeeping's tendency to rearrange our stuff.

Very spacious room. There are two parts to this hotel, the Hostel and then the actual hotel, which was not bad. We didn't spend much time there anyway but the room was big enough to stretch out. It was about a 10 minute walk to the main train station Terminini and the area around the hotel is littered with good restaurants.

nice room, clean and simple, somwhat small but fine. Quick service - fixed the safe, explained about the Wifi - reception was best near the window :-) Great location near a metro station in the vicinity of Termini. Come back to rest in the afternoon and go out again - for a reasonable price.

The location was very good. Our room faced the street, it was noisy. The breakfast was ok, but the coffe was not good. We will recomend this hotel and come back.

The location of the hotel is excellent - 5 mins walk to Termini train station and only 2 mins to the metro, which will get you to many of the city's attractions. There are a good selection of restaurants and pubs in the vicinity. The hotel rooms are very small, but are clean and functional. The elevator is very old, so it's not much use during peak times. The hotel staff are friendly and helpful. This hotel is recommended for those wanting to be close to the main tourist sights or within walking distance to Termini train station.
