Locanda Al Viminale

The staff was very friendly, the room was large and good for our needs (Family Room, Terrace), and the breakfast was suitable (croissant/bread and yogurt with orange juice and coffee). Our only complaint was the room temperature. We visited in September when the air conditioning needed to be turned on. The thermostat showed 17, but it felt more like 23.

What a perfect choice for our first visit to Rome! We had very good communications with Erika before we arrived, Good English skills and quick to respond to questions. We arrived at the Roma Termini station on the Leonardo Express from the airport and had an easy third of a mile walk with wheeled luggage to the Locanda. Erika was there to meet us and set us up in our room. The location is awesome. One block north is Via Nazionale which you can follow a half mile southwest to Trajans Column, Altare della Patria and the nearest entry area for the ancient forum ruins. To the northeast in about a quarter mile is the Reppublica Metro station where you can ride the subway to the Ottaviano station near the vatican. We walked from the Locanda to all the major sights, Pantheon, Trevi, Borghese Villa. I am 70 my wife 65. The location made our explorations very easy! When we left for Florence on the train we had another easy walk with wheeled luggage. Nearby restaurants were very nice. Our favorite was Antica Pizzeria Est Est Est. Nice, small family place, very close by. Get a "Pinsa" for something different. On the ground floor of the same building is Ristorante "Al Viminale" also great food. The Locanda provided continental breakfast was sufficient to get us going with hot Cappuccino, juice, fresh croissants, yogurt and toast and jam. Erica also arranged for a private driver to get us back to the airport at 4:30 in the morning. So, thank you Erica and Locanda al Viminale for making our first Rome visit so very nicer!

Quaint B&B just few minutes from Roma Termini. Clean room with queen bed, small refrigerator.

First time staying in Rome! Locanda al Viminale was such an amazing stay. The breakfast and choice of beverage in the morning we always looked forward too. Erica and Giorgia were so helpful all steps of the way. Felt very safe as you needed to get past 3 doors with keys and passcode to get to your room door. Trevi fountain is so close walked there almost everyday to get to everywhere. Perfect location!

Staff people are really friendly. They served breakfast at different times based on the need of customers. Our room has high ceiling, and this makes me feel the room is spacious. My overall experience was very pleasant.

The receptionist Ericka was nice, but it cost too much to stay in a on the go apar**ent. Good for one or two days stay.

Great family friendly hotel with friendly staff. Thanks to Erika we felt very welcomed. We stayed with two kids and the room had additional single bed and also provided a cot bed for baby. The location of the hotel is great. It is close to the station, to the metro and to main sights.

It’s a motel. The picture in the first image isn’t of the room we stayed in. Our room was older with peeling ceiling and an interesting smell. The sheets were clean, but the top bedding was not. The bathroom was clean and so was the room. There was a smell, but I’m guessing that was from outside?? Maybe.. The staff was excellent and extremely helpful, responsive and kind. The breakfast exceeded expectations. The room disappointed, but it did its job well given the price we payed for the single night we stayed.

The room we were in bears no resemblance to the photos on the website. It was dark and as another reviewer mentioned, there was a constant unpleasant smell. The shower wasn’t fixed to the wall. There were no tea and coffee making facilities accessible to guests. The one central kettle was behind an area cordoned off and saying staff only.
