Hotel Castellino Roma

Amazing hotel with great location. Right infront of Piazza Venezia, walking distance for every major attraction. Secure area with lots of great shopping, local amenities, express groceries, metro, taxis and electric scooters. Breakfast was amazing, lots of seating, great selection.

A Door between a restaurant and a vrbo. Hard to find it. The rooms and bathrooms need updating. The room had a huge round jacuzzi up two steps in the room. The room needed to be larger and take that out. Extremely noisy if you are on the front side. Busy street. Would not stay again.

Safe & friendly

Excellant location. Many places to eat nearby. Room very clean.

The hotel is in a great location. However it should not be a 4 star hotel. The staff was rude and not welcoming. The breakfast was good but the staff were not friendly. The shower in the room leaks water everywhere because there is no shower door. I’m not sure why the other reviews are good but the hotel seriously needs an update. I would say it should be rated as a 3 star.

On the plus side, it’s very central so is convenient for tourist visits but it all felt very impersonal and not really like a a hotel - perhaps more of a hostel feel. The hotel was hard to locate for both us and the taxi driver. Apart from the name etched on a narrow glass door (between 2 cafes) you wouldn’t know it was there. It really needs a sign hanging outside. The entrance was further obscured by scaffolding. Access is up a narrow corridor to the reception where there is a lift to your room, and that’s it really. All very impersonal. There is a breakfast room and the breakfasts started off ok but for most of the stay the hot food was lukewarm at best. None of the lids over the food trays were hinged so fell off all the time. Coffee had to be ordered from the waiters and didn’t always arrive. The building feels like it needs some love and attention. Stepping out of the lift there was a large damp patch in the ceiling where water came through the roof in the corridor outside the bedroom The glass shower door was detached from its runner and fell onto my husband who was stuck in the shower holding it off him the first time we used it! The light in the shower didn’t work (fixed) although the 2 lights in the bedroom were flickering and intermittent throughout our stay. The wardrobe has a weird mirror thing which makes it look like extra wardrobe space, but isn’t. Both of us walked into it upon arrival! There was no mattress protector on the bed. I found a dirty old sock from a previous visitor on one of the clothes shelf. The bottled water in the room is charged for although there is no notice to say this. In fact, there was no guest information in the room at all. It just didn’t feel very professional and we were disappointed.

Perfect location close to all rome attractions with walking distance .. clean hotel and respectful staff fulfilling your needs .. breakfast was good with variable taste options .. highly recommend it would definitely come back again to this hotel
